Permanent Jewelry FAQ
What is Permanent Jewelry?
Permanent jewelry refers to finely crafted necklaces and bracelets welded into a seamless piece without clasps—meant to be worn continuously.
What does the process involve?
Choose your desired chain, get expertly fitted, and watch as we weld it into your perfect fit. Remember, selections are final once cut!
How long will my jewelry last?
With proper care, your jewelry can adorn you for years, symbolizing permanence in your daily life while requiring mindful maintenance.
What materials are used?
We craft our pieces with superior .925 sterling silver, 14k yellow and rose gold-filled options, and even solid gold upon special request, ensuring quality and durability.

What if I have to remove?
If you need to remove your permanent jewelry, carefully cut at the jump ring—not the chain—to preserve it for reattachment. The Always Busy Mama offers a complimentary first reattachment; subsequent services will be $10 each.
Important Note: If the chain is damaged beyond repair or significantly altered, it will require replacement at the owner's expense.
Permanent Jewelry After-Care
Your new permanent jewelry, while sturdy, requires your attention and care to maintain its beauty and integrity. Follow these guidelines to keep your jewelry in pristine condition:
Your jewelry should clean itself while you are in the shower; however, it is good to clean your jewelry from time to time, especially if you are in and out of pools, hot tubs, and/or excessively sweating.
Proper Washing: Gently wash your chains with warm water and mild dish soap, then finish with a polishing cloth to restore their shine.
Avoid Harmful Substances: Steer clear of perfumes, makeup, hair sprays, lotions, and self-tanners that might tarnish or damage your jewelry.
What should I do if my permanent jewelry breaks?
If your permanent jewelry breaks at the jump ring, I am happy to reweld it for you. However, if the chain breaks, this is considered normal wear and tear, and I am unable to offer repairs or replacements for those pieces.
Remember, once your piece is welded, it becomes your responsibility to care for and maintain it. Proper care, cleaning, and attention to your jewelry will help preserve its longevity. Tarnishing is a natural process, and while I provide care instructions, I cannot offer replacements for tarnished pieces.
