Custom-made gilded lace earrings

I couldn't be more thrilled with Monika Knutsson's extraordinary work. From the moment I discovered her talent, I knew I had found someone truly exceptional. Faced with the sentimental dilemma of what to do with my cherished 30-year-old wedding gown, I embarked on a journey with Monika that far exceeded my expectations. With grace and creativity, she transformed my vision into reality by crafting not one, but two pairs of custom-made earrings. These earrings are nothing short of masterpieces, each intricately infused with a piece of lace from my beloved wedding gown, giving them a unique and sentimental touch. One pair glistens in radiant gold, while the other emanates a soft, delicate rose-gold hue. Monika's artistry shines through in every exquisite detail. I am head over heels in love with these gilded lace earrings and can't wait to proudly showcase them to the world.

Monika's meticulous attention to detail is evident not only in her creations but also in her top-notch customer service. I'm charmed by the elegant presentation of her pieces, lovingly wrapped in luxurious velvet bags, adorned with tags, and delicately encased in fine tissue paper for shipment.

Looking ahead, I am excited to continue my creative journey with Monika. I have full confidence that she will craft another exceptional piece of gilded lace jewelry from my old wedding gown – a necklace pendant that will perfectly complement my stunning earrings.

Monika Knutson has been so lovely to work with !!! She made 3 pieces for me, 2 bracelets, and a ring, which I keep coming back for more. I can not say enough about the quality of work she does. She is truly passionate about making sure each piece is absolutely perfect from the fine details, to the size, the design you want and the placement of how you will wear each piece. She designed a cuff for my weeding with lace from my grandmas dress. She worked very closely with me, asking the story behind the lace to better understand the special meaning. She made a heirloom piece that will forever be cherished all because she cared about the history of the lace and what it represented to me. She does astounding work and is even better to work with.
