FAQ

“Should I buy sterling silver, 10kt or 14kt gold earrings for a baby or little girl?”

We highly recommend buying 14k gold baby earrings her first pair of earrings since a little one’s ears are sensitive and they can have allergies to different alloys found in lower karats of gold. 

"Are your screw back earrings secure?”

Yes, our earrings with screw backs are very secure. Screw back earrings are the most requested style in baby earrings and children’s earrings. The screw back pieces twist onto the post and stay firmly in place.

“The earrings have covered screw backs. What does that mean?”

A covered screw back has a closed end (not pierced) to encase the post, and therefore the sharp end of the post doesn’t poke through. This provides superior comfort when sleeping

"What size earring should I choose for my daughter? It's hard to tell the size online"

We recommend following the below sizing guide:

Baby - 3mm to 4mm 

2 years - 4mm and higher

5 years and older - any size will work, most go with a 4.5mm higher

Adults - any size will work, the smaller 3mm work great as upper ear piercings 

"Why do the posts on the earrings seem so long?"

The posts are a standard length which accommodates for different thicknesses of earlobes. It is actually good to have some extra space between the earlobe and backing to allow the earring to slide back and forth in the ear while it is still healing and becoming a permanent hole (which can take many years to complete). This also reduces the risk of complications and infections since it is easier to clean and there is air flow. 

"Do I need to check the backings regularly?"

Yes! It is always a good idea to check the backings regularly as little ones tend to play with their ears and may loosen the backings accidentally. Better to air on the side of precaution and tighten them regularly.

How to Add Photos to Your Locket:

  1. After opening the locket, use a pair of tweezers or a small pin to remove the clear plastic insert from one side of the locket. (The plastic is firm, so it should pop out easily.)
  2. Select your photo. If needed, you can utilize a digital photo program like iphoto or photoshop (even Microsoft Word works well) to resize a photo to fit into the locket.  Please note, the size of the photo will be approximately 13 mm wide and 16 mm tall once it is trimmed, so the photo you select needs to be sized accordingly! 
  3. Use photo paper, not regular copy paper, to print your selected picture.
  4. Place the insert over the photograph of your choice to trace an outline. 
  5. Carefully cut out the photo and place it inside the locket, then replace the plastic insert on top of the photo.  
  6. Use the tweezers or pin to make sure the 4 small tabs on the plastic insert are securely inside the locket. This is an important step to ensure your photo stays in place!
  7. Repeat these steps to add a photo to the other side of your locket.

925 Sterling Silver is an alloy made of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper. We plate our silver jewelry in rhodium, which gives it extra shine and durability. Hypoallergenic and nickle free.

Gold vermeil, not to be confused with regular gold plating, our vermeil is a thick layer of 14k or 18k solid gold on sterling silver meaning it will last longer. You get the look & feel of gold jewelry at a fraction of the price.

14k solid gold is a precious metal that will not oxidize or discolor. The 14k alloy gives our pieces their beautiful, subtle hue. 14k solid gold is also an active lifestyle's best friend: it scratches less and doesn't bend or wear out as easily as 18k.
