It’s All in the Details

I recently made a purchase from a company called Origami Owl. The common observer might say that this company sells necklaces. In reality, it is a personal shopping experience that I have yet to find a comparison to. To begin, you go to their website that literally takes you step by step through the design process of creating your custom piece of jewelry. This is done in a way that makes navigation easy, selection fun and keeps you engaged from step to step.

After you complete your order, a waiting period begins. It seems like forever, but it’s really only like two weeks, and then you come home to the most amazing experience.

You open the pink shipping box to reveal a teal colored Chinese take-out box with the quote “You tell your story with words, we tell stories with jewelry.” Inside it contains your individually wrapped custom contents of your new necklace.

First you remove the locket, then the chain, then each of your “perfectly-you” selected charms go inside. Then you see it, the icing on the cake…a perfectly crafted Asian inspired fortune cookie carrying case that you can use to store your new necklace.

You put the necklace on for the first time, give the locket a shake around your neck, and admire your creation.
