Do not order unless you like waiting months to recieve

I submitted my order for a birthday gift 08/04/2025 - that is 29 days ago!! That birthday has long since come and gone. I still don't even see my order has shipped. I contacted Customer Service who keeps telling me over and over that it will be shipped "this week" and it continues to never be shipped. I eventually asked for a refund and they said they'd update to express shipping. However, I STILL DONT SEE IT SHIPPED?! Never order from here.

Edit: finally received and they said they’d update to express shipping for free and it was shipped USPS Ground so another 1 star review for Custom Collective

While we do everything we can to keep things on track, there are times when circumstances beyond our control create setbacks. Please know that our team has been working around the clock to resolve these issues and get your order shipped out as quickly as possible.

We recognize that this does not make up for the missed occasion, but we want to assure you that your order remains a top priority. Our customer service team will continue to update you directly and ensure you are taken care of until your package is safely in your hands.

Once again, we sincerely apologize and appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

Sideways Initial Necklace 10/10

I am absolutely in love with my sideways initial necklace! It's so dainty and beautiful! I wear it as an everyday piece and I love thar I can wear my kids initials right next to my heart ❤️ The quality is great, the shipping was quick, especially for being a custom piece. I highly recommend it. It's the perfect gift for a loved one or a special treat for yourself.

I ordered the heart necklace with the initial K. The k was not centered and barely visible. I ordered an initial necklace, but you can’t see the initial!

Absolutely terrible experience

Absolutely terrible experience. Ordered a gift for my girlfriend over 2 weeks before her birthday. Order did not arrive on time. When I contacted customer support I was given a specific day when the order would ship. That day came and went without any shipment progress. I messaged again and received another timeframe when the order would ship, but it looks like that timeframe will also pass without any shipment progress. As of right now it’s been over 20 days since I placed my order.

End of Maternity Leave Treat!

This is the perfect dainty bracelet! I got the initial bracelet with birthstone as my treat before going back to work after maternity leave and I absolutely love it!

I love the personalized initial necklace. It’s simple, elegant, and so meaningful. I got the letter E to represent my girls, Elena and Emilia. It’s my favorite everyday necklace.

Beautiful dainty necklace

I got the sideway initial necklace customized with my initial A and I'm obsessed with it! It's beautiful & dainty, perfect to wear alone or layer with other necklaces. I've been wearing it daily for a week now, even during pilates and long walks outside in the heat and so far there has been no tarnishing. I love it!!

Hi Julien,

We're very sorry to hear about your experience and truly appreciate your honest feedback. We completely understand how frustrating it can be to wait for an order, especially without the support you were hoping for.

To provide some background, our team began crafting your custom pieces on July 7th. As noted in our processing timeline, each piece takes 8–10 business days to complete. Your order was forwarded for shipment on July 22nd, and because you selected express shipping, we took additional steps to ensure it was prioritized.

However, once your package was handed over to the shipping provider, the transit and final delivery—completed on July 28th—were outside of our direct control. That said, we’re very sorry if our communication fell short in helping you track your order. It's something we take seriously, and we'll work to improve this moving forward.

We’re glad to hear the jewelry met your expectations, but we’re disappointed we couldn’t deliver a smoother overall experience. If there’s anything else we can do to make it right, please don’t hesitate to reach out. 💛
