Discontinued Designs and Letter Beads Over the past few years many of our manufacturers have discontinued certain letter bead styles and beads we use in our designs. As a result we have had to discontinue or retire certain style letter beads and designs. If you need a repair or addition to one of these retired/discontinued designs, we will be uanble to provide that service. We apologize in advance for this situation but hope our customers realize it was not our choice to do so. Regarding Baby & Children's Bracelets: Our bracelets contain small parts. Please do not leave small children unattended while wearing any type of jewelry. Please use your best judgement when giving a baby bracelet as a gift. They are intended as Heirloom Keepsakes and should be worn with adult supervision at all times. SHIPPING INFO. AND RATES We will ship your jewelry within 2-3 business days of receiving your order.
