Custom Locket for Picture Perfect Memories
I have not had a locket since I was a child. When I was a kid, lockets were a big deal. I have a couple with my initials, one from a boy in 1st grade because he had a crush on me, and a couple of decorative ones. But these days none mean a ton to me.
It seems like too much trouble to find photos I like and try and get them the correct size to print out, then cut out and have them stay in place. It's just not worth it. Now, I not only have a beautiful custom locket from Pictures on Gold with photos of my kids inside that I was able to make it totally unique and special to me.

My absolute favorite thing about this locket is that I could customize everything. From the choice of metal, front, back, insides, font, chain, and embellishments. I could make it exactly how I wanted it. I was blown away by the amount of text I was able to include on either the front or back. 6 lines of text on the front, 7 on the back, each 25 characters long.
Your Photos, Your Way
You can choose exactly what you want inside your locket. I chose to add two photos, each color laser engraved. They are beautifully rendered and covered in a protective clear cover. I could have also had them laser etched in black and white, or even just have them printed on photo paper and inserted.
Or I could choose to add a monogram or text inside, then add photos myself. But I certainly love the ease and permanence of having them laser engraved. I never have to worry about the photos falling out and losing them.
Certified Unique
Every piece of jewelry from Pictures on Gold that is laser engraved with a photo is certified unique with an individually numbered certificate of authenticity. I love knowing that care went into making the locket and that it truly is unique. It would also make a wonderful touch as a gift, showing the thoughtfulness of giving something truly one-of-a-kind.
Keeping my Kids Close
Honestly, I'm not big on heart-shaped jewelry. BUT because this piece is so unique and special to me, I absolutely love this locket from Pictures on Gold. A photo of all three of my kids shortly after my youngest was born faces a photo taken just a couple of weeks ago. Then and now.
My initials grace the front and one of my favorite quotes ever is inscribed on the back. "Your life is yours alone, rise up and live it" is a principle I try to live by every day and hope to pass on to my kids. The author of this quote, Terry Goodkind passed away just last month, making this mean even more to me.

A Cherished Heirloom

This would be the perfect gift for my mom. We lost my brother to cancer in 2019. It would be lovely to have his portrait on one side, and a picture of mama and David on the other side. Perhaps his initials could be on the outside and his birthdate and date of his passing on the backside. This is an amazing concept.
