Top Engraving Tips

• For a start, remember that getting the keyring engraved will add to the cost.  Not much but if money is tight you will want to think about what letters you want to use carefully.  Many engravers will charge by the character so you will need to think about what you want written into your keyring.  If your friends name is Zebedde Mangle-Wurzle then you might want to think about getting the initials graved on their own.  This will still give you a personalised keyring at the end of it all!
• Engraving may take some additional time to complete.  Remember to check carefully with your supplier before commiting to an order to ensure that you will get your new keyring in time.  You will not want to be left waiting by the post box hoping it arrives just in time for when you really need it!
• If you get your keyring engraved you will not be able to sell it on afterwards.  This won’t be a problem if you order a cheap one but if you decide to splash out on an expensive silver or gold personalised keyring then you will limit yourself to who you can sell it on to.  Perhaps not a problem if you get it engraved with “Dad”!
• When ordering your personalised keyring online ensure that you are very careful when typing out the letters that you want to get engraved.  It is very likely the retailer will not want to take back your order if it turns out you ordered the wrong letters and they carried out the instruction incorrectly.  They will engrave whatever it is you request onto your blank keyring so don’t expect them to correct any spelling mistakes, afterall how were they supposed to know you wanted Jon and not John!

A little bit of care and intention will ensure your perssonalised keyring is engraved correctly – no worries!

Silver keyrings are both attractive but also a practical choice.  These precious metals are valued for a reason and the silver in your keyring will be particularly hard wearing.  Tough and resistant to rapid deterioration.   The silver keyring therefore makes a fantastic gift, hopefully it says that you put a little bit more thought into it and the long lasting material will be treasured for many many years to come!

Silver

When looking for your preferred product look out for one made from Hallmarked Sterling Silver.  This will make an ideal present for a wedding or of course a silver wedding anniversary.  You will normally be able to get these engraved to your liking, typically initials, a date or a name can be be etched into the metal.

Fortunately keyrings made from silver are not as expensive as some silver items, remember that these key holders are relatively small items and therefore not much material is required to construct them.  So for not a massive outlay you can give a great present, or maybe even treat yourself if you are in a generous mood.  Add before you know it your key collection will be harnessed securely on an attractive container.

It’s almost her birthday, you are wondering desperately what else to get her.  You’ve bought her the hair straighteners she wanted, you’ve got her the new series she loves on DVD, and even the book from her favourite author.  It seems you have got most bases covered already!  But you have this feeling that there is something missing.

Personalisation Options

There are lots of different ways to add that personal touch to your gift keyring.  This blog will be going into the details of different methods in more detail in time so check out our other posts, but for now have a look at these quick tips:

• Get an engraved keyring:  This give you plenty of scope to add a nice little touch, you can engrave your names or intitials, perhaps a heart or the date you first met.  If you are married then a wedding anniversary date is a great idea.
• Photo keyrings:  Agains this is an ideal way to show some thought.  Pick out a favourite photo of the two of you or how about you find a photo of her pet or even arrange a group photo of her family.  A wedding photo or a picture of your children would also be suitable.

Whatever method you chose, this little extra gift is sure to go down well.  Just make sure it isn’t the only gift you give her this year!
