Let’s get personal

OUR names are probably the first thing we ever learn to write, and it’s the set of letters that we will associate ourselves with for a lifetime. Isn’t it only appropriate for treasured objects to reflect a personal touch, with the owner’s names or initials on them?
Personalized accessories are the perfect mementos that one can treasure for years. Ruzé Collections offers personalized jewelry and home ware that are perfect to give or to keep. Proprietor Rizanne Tiongko creates made-to-order pieces from acrylic, or high quality brass plated in silver or gold.
Personalized pieces like etched silverware add a handsome touch to any dining table, and make lovely heirlooms.
A catch dish like this is great to have on your bedside table for everyday accessories. Remove jewelry before going to bed, and put it back on as you’re heading out the door in the morning.
Put your name on that cup of morning coffee by adding a subtle name plate. It’s chicer and less common than run-of-the-mill printed mugs. (Contributed photo)
