Grad Gifts & New Tassels

Here’s to the Class of 2019

Honestly, we don’t think there’s a more perfect graduation gift than Tassel Jewelry!  Whether it’s a new spin on school pride or tassels for daily wear to remind her of all the hard work that earned her cap and gown, we’ve got you covered!

If you’ve been around here for any length of time, you know that our Tassel Earrings are CUSTOMIZABLE!  We love to bring our design-your-own Tassel Bar to local pop-up events and parties.  But if you have been admiring us from afar, have no fear!

Contact us and we can help you create the perfect pair!

Show your school pride!  Tassels are a chic way to take your school colors (or favorite colors) into your new job.  We still love our team hoodies… but, let’s leave those for the weekend!

Let us know what your school colors are!  We’ll help you pair just the right tassels and gemstone beads to create the perfect pride pair.  They’ll be the envy of every tailgate, too!

We love tassel earrings so much because they are easy and fun to wear…

  • big, bold statement piece
  • lightweight for all-day wear
  • dress them up OR down
  • upgradable earring hooks (great for sensitive ears)
  • perfectly priced for gifting!

We’ve got a couple of options for you!

We’ll be POPPING UP on June 8th (with the Tassel Bar in tow) for the National Best Friend’s Day celebration at Cotton & Co Vintage Boutique in Keymar, Maryland.

In addition to the whole boutique filled with high end vintage dealers and artisan vendors, we’ll be joined by Black Ankle Vineyards out on the patio.

So, grab your bestie (or your favorite graduate) and head over for a fun day out!

(Oh, and Keymar, Maryland is a small town close to the Westminster, Taneytown and Frederick areas. We’ll be all over Maryland this summer, so jump on our email list to find out if we’re coming to a town near you!)

Can’t wait until June?  Who could blame you!  Our online shop is always open!

And we’ve even got some new tassel designs to kick off the summer season!  

We are totally crushing on the Solid Pink Tiered Tassels (featured above).

Or, for a more subtle (and beachy) vibe, these Navy Tassels with White and Aqua Gemstones are the perfect fit.  Plus, these will transition beautifully into your fall and winter wardrobes, too!

Light or Dark Grey… which is your favorite?

Don’t worry.  We can’t decide either.  But the good news is, there’s no wrong choice!  Whichever tassel is your favorite, don’t wait too long to snag it.  You’ll want to be wearing them all summer long, so don’t miss out!

The Best Grad Gifts of 2018

Tassels aren’t just for the cap & gown look anymore! 

Graduations mark an exciting milestone in a person’s life. They represent the closing of one chapter and the beginning of one that’s brand new!

And while high school graduations can bring up a lot of different emotions, ranging from excitement (newly minted adults!) to sadness (parents facing empty nests!), they deserve to be celebrated!

So, to make grad party season a little easier, we put together this list of our favorite graduation gift ideas for high school girls.

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again:
Tassel jewelry is the “it” accessory of the summer!
As lightweight statement jewelry, tassel jewelry is both cute and comfortable. Girls everywhere are accessorizing with earrings, necklaces, and bracelets adorned by tassels! Our Tassel Collection offers a whole rainbow of graduation gift options following this trend.

For girls who like delicate or minimal jewelry, we recommend the Pink Crystal Spike & Pearl Tassel Necklace as a graduation gift.

Its pale pink and white hues pair well with a variety of outfits. And the semi-precious quartz spike and freshwater pearl make this necklace feel extra special to receive.

Most high school students only own costume jewelry. So a gift of high quality handmade earrings is a thoughtful way to mark a girl’s transition to adulthood. The sparkly crystal layer on the druzy gemstones contrasts beautifully with the smoothly faceted amazonite teardrops. It’s a look that she can dress up or down!

For girls who aren’t afraid to make a fashion statement, we recommend a brightly colored Tiered Tassel Necklace! 

The Jewelry Shop currently stocks this gemstone-accented necklace in two colors, pink and green. But if you’d like a different color for your grad, just send us a note and we can create a custom design for you!
