LeMel pieces are designed with personalization in mind. Almost all LeMel jewelry has options to customize and add a personal touch whether it be a name, initial or custom design. 

One of LeMel's bestselling personalized pieces is the Initial Necklace — even Jen and Mel have one each with their children’s initials on them! Jen started with just an “E” for her oldest daughter Emma and Mel started with just an “O” for her oldest son Owen, but they added on initials as their other babies joined the family. 

So, you might be wondering, “What if I want to add an initial?” Luckily, the process of adding an initial to any piece, not just the Initial Necklace, is simple.

STEP 1: ORDER IT

Head to the LeMel website and click “Add an Initial” option to order whichever letter you’d like to add to your piece. 

• Keep in mind that there is no limit to the amount of initials you can add to a piece.
• Have a double name? Purchase 2 x Add an Initial and we can email to talk about placing the letters next to each other. 

STEP 2: CUSTOMIZE IT

Our initials can be customized to create your perfect piece.

• Choose from 14K Yellow, White or Rose gold.
• Feeling fancy? Add some sparkle by adding round or baguette diamonds.
• Want a birthstone as an accent? Send us an email at hello@shoplemel.com and we can help bring your vision to life.

STEP 3: SHIP IT

Simply mail us your original piece and we will add the initial or diamond. We will provide you with shipping instructions after you have ordered the 'Add an Initial' or "Add a Diamond" product. 

A few shipping tips: 

• Please place original necklace or bracelet in a sealed ziploc bag to avoid tangles.
• Mail the piece back in a small padded envelope or box.
• Include a note in the inside of the package with your new order number after purchasing your new initial or diamond. 
• We suggest purchasing insurance for the retail value of the piece of jewelry.
