I know, I know. When you go into a meaningful gift shop you usually don't spot some random (and slightly creepy) gift ideas and if you do, they're usually hidden in the back. But hey, what can I say? Humans are complicated and we have many layers to us. If I can be sentimental, thoughtful, and a little dark - why can't others? It's all about balance. The good and the bad. The light and the dark. The sweet and the sour. I think you get it. I decided to embrace all aspects of my creativity - including the sides that don't necessarily fit in with my other thoughtful gift lines. If you're like me, and a few of my closest besties, you enjoy a good scare - which is exactly what inspired my Best Friend Promise butcher knife necklace keepsake. Sterling Silver Butcher Knife NecklaceI might have more layers than an onion, but I will always stay true to the quality of my work. When I began making jewelry I used to use whatever materials I could get my hands on -- especially anything that would be easier on my bank account. As I grew and learned more about not only the materials themselves but also what it meant to run a quality vs quantity business, I made an oath to myself that I would only use high quality materials; including sterling silver 925. It is so bothersome when I see other businesses, both large corporations and small businesses, try to advertise high quality materials when in reality they're using plated materials or they don't even know what 'silver' they're actually using. Transparency is huge in my world and I wanted to extend that to every single person that shops with my brand. That's why I make it a point to focus on the detail that I only use sterling silver precious metal components; from jump rings to chains everything is sterling silver. Well, aside from the occasional keychain but even with that I use full disclosure of the materials used and it's on the key ring itself that is metal and not 925 sterling. This fun, and weird, sterling silver butcher knife necklace is the perfect keepsake to give to your crime documentary obsessed BFF. Horror Film Loving Friendship GiftIn addition to using high quality sterling silver materials, I also believe that presentation is key. That's why when you shop at Jen Downey your order will...

A mother and daughter share an everlasting bond. Through life's laughter, tears, and everything in between, a mother and daughter share a bond like no other.
Whether you're looking for the perfect birthday gift for your mom, want to give her a meaningful gift as you prepare to walk down the aisle to remind her that you'll always be her little girl, or just want to say thank you for all of the sacrifices she made over the years, Jen Downey's beautiful Mother & Daughter sentiment is the perfect gift idea. Know The Metal You're Buying
The reason that I only use sterling silver materials (aside from the occasional keyring) is because throughout my teenage years I would find this a-m-a-z-i-n-g piece of jewelry...only for it to tarnish or turn my skin green within a few weeks of having it. Who wants to spend their hard-earned money on something that's only going to break a few weeks after getting it? I know I don't.
So when my path aligned me to developing a meaningful jewelry line, I decided that I would only use high quality materials. Whether you're buying a thoughtful gift through my website or somewhere else, all I ask is that you're aware of what you're buying. Silver does not mean precious metal. In fact, companies (including small businesses) sell their 'metal' for the same price, or slightly less, than what you could buy a sterling silver piece for. Why not spend that extra few dollars for precious metal? What Comes With Your Necklace
Presentation is everything - and it has taken my years of trial and error to figure out the perfect way to package my meaningful jewelry. Whether you're sending a gift from Jen Downey directly to someone or shipping it to yourself first, the gift is ready to give the day it arrives.

As I began my journey into creating meaningful keepsakes I noticed that the market lacked keepsakes for dads who lost a life through a miscarriage. That's why it was important for me to begin working on a line of mens jewelry for these significant events in someone's life, the good and the bad. Legend of the FeatherThere is an old belief that when a feather crosses your path it is a loved one sending their love from above to remind you that you are not alone, even though you can no longer see the person who has passed on. Everyone has their own little messages from Heaven that they believe are their sign from a loved one above. For me, a feather has a special meaning for a very specific person. For others, a feather might be a guardian angel sending their prayers from Heaven. It's a beautiful thing that we can all see the same thing and it can mean something entirely different for each and every one of us.
