About

Hi! I'm so happy you're here.

I founded Starter Bling when a friend offered to buy my daughter Madeline a necklace for her baptism. She was six months old at the time, and I thought, "How sweet, but isn't that a choking hazard?! And her baby skin is so sensitive! I don't want her wearing jewelry yet. Maybe there's an alternative..."

I scoured the internet and found tons of cute personalized baby clothes on Etsy, but nothing in a jewelry style. I've always loved initial & nameplate necklaces, so I made Madeline a onesie embellished with her very own shiny gold nameplate necklace. Friends and family loved it - my parents especially loved that I was utilizing my art degree! When we started getting comments about the shirt everywhere we went, I realized this was something I needed to share with the world. And just like that, Starter Bling was born! I really hope you love the concept. Thank you so much for your support.
