A cozy corner of creativity where we share custom work stories, jewelry tutorials, behind‑the‑scenes studio moments, and helpful guides for stretched lobes and handmade jewelry lovers.
Whether you’re learning how to wear gauged earrings, exploring gemstone meanings, or following along with our latest custom creations, this space brings you closer to the slow‑crafted magic behind every piece.
Welcome to the Stubborn Sloths Blog
Here’s what you’ll find:
Work‑in‑progress photos that document patterns, drafting, wire wrapping, engraving, assembly, mistakes, restarts and creative executive decisions.
Stories behind the pieces — who they were made for, why the design matters and a note from the maker about inspiration, materials and the little choices that make each piece personal.
Finished custom pieces including jewelry, engraved keepsakes, and other works of art.
Every Tuesday we feature a highlighted custom project across our social channels called “True to You Tuesday”. That post includes a short narrative, process and finished photos, and links back to the full blog post so you can explore the full design and ordering options.
We believe the making process is part of the story. Expect close‑up images of hands at work, time‑lapse shots of wire wrapping, and candid photos from fittings, design trials and studio days. These posts highlight craftsmanship, problem solving, and the small details that make custom work special.
Rocking Serenity Sip
This custom piece is equal parts meaning and mischief: a tinted half pint glass engraved by hand with a small recovery triangle tucked into the base and a bold skeleton hand throwing the rock on gesture along the side. It’s a keepsake that toasts recovery with a wink and a little edge.
Sun and Moon Custom Necklaces
Crafted as a pair for sisters, the two pieces read as a set and as individual talismans—one bright and grounding, the other cool and reflective.
