Uncommon Goods + Unique Gift Ideas

I am of the opinion that accessories and jewelries can elevate a simple outfit. Even when you are wearing a simple tee and jeans, pairing it with the right accessories can transform the outfit. Therefore, I always relish the idea of stumbling upon a website that offers unique jewelry options. When I was introduced to Uncommon Goods, I knew right away that this would be a great website to support. You can check out the website's unique collection of handmade jewelry here. 

When I tied the knot last year, I bought my bridesmaids and maid of honor earrings as gifts so they all wore the same earrings on my wedding day. Jewelry is and always will be a classic gift idea for special occasions like weddings, bridal showers, birthdays and more. You will be spoiled for choice at Uncommon Goods; just check it out for yourself on their website. I've also included some gift ideas that you can choose from, especially if you are attending a special occasion soon:

Uncommon Goods was founded in 1999 and quickly carved its niche in the industry for its commitment to bring the most unique, handcrafted jewelry while being eco-friendly. Not only are the methods used for production safe for humans, animals and the environment, but majority of the materials used are recycled or upcycled. In addition, their website becomes a platform for artists and designers to showcase their handmade creations. 

On top of an eco-friendly business practice, Uncommon Goods give back to the community. As part of the company's core values, they want to utilize the creative talent of artists to create a positive impact on the environment and the immediate community. To date, they have donated up to $1 Million to charities via the Better to Give program, of which the company has been a part of in the last 12 years. You can learn more about the company's story here.
