Almost 2 years ago, Iost my only child. My daughter Amanda, age 15. I have always called her “Skwerl”. She is gorgeous with pale skin and beautiful red hair. I saw the Vintage Squirrel Cameo Necklace and started to cry. It seemed as if it had been custom made for me. I ordered it immediately and received it this morning. The quality is fantastic and is even prettier in person. I couldn’t be prouder to have my red haired skwerl displayed around my necklace and have received numerous compliments about it and inquiries as to where I found it. Ihave been urging everyone I know to visit your website. Just felt like sharing.
Your customer for life,
Mike
Mike’s lovely daughter
This email really touched my heart. I actually cried reading it, and it means to me to know that an item that comes from my shop (made by my friend Catherine) helped brighten someone’s day. I don’t normally share such personal emails but it was so meaningful (and don’t worry – I asked for permission! ;-)
Thanks for sharing Mike–Shana Logic LOVES you and Skwerl!
GAH. *bawling*

This is so sad. She really looks the type of person to wear your gear though, doesn’t she? Her makeup in that photo you could swear was LimeCrime!
Wow….that is an amazing and quite sad story. She really does look like your perfect customer.
I know… thanks for reading and commenting Jenipher (gorgeous name by the way!)
