About Us

Welcome to Eight14 Designs

Every piece of jewelry tells a story, and at Eight14 Designs, our story is woven into the very fabric of our name—a date that holds profound meaning and has shaped who we are.

The Meaning Behind Eight14

August 14th is more than just a date on the calendar. It's a thread that connects three of the most significant moments in my life, creating a tapestry of love, life, and legacy.

August 14, 1966 - My parents were married, beginning a beautiful journey of love and partnership that would inspire everything I do.

August 14, 1967 - Exactly one year later, I was born, a living testament to their love and the continuation of their story.

August 14, 2022 - My father passed away, completing a circle that began 56 years earlier. Though heartbreaking, this date reminds me of the enduring power of love and the importance of creating lasting connections.

These three moments—marriage, birth, and passing—all occurring on the same date, taught me that life's most precious moments are about the bonds we create and the memories we leave behind. This is the heart of Eight14 Designs.

Our Mission

Just as August 14th connects the most important chapters of my life, we create jewelry that connects people to their most meaningful moments. Whether it's permanent jewelry that symbolizes unbreakable bonds, custom handmade pieces that tell your unique story, or private event experiences that bring people together, we believe in creating more than just jewelry—we create lasting memories.

What We Do

Permanent Jewelry
We specialize in custom-fitted permanent bracelets, anklets, and necklaces that have no clasp—symbolizing bonds that are meant to last, just like the connections that matter most in life.

Handmade Custom Jewelry
Each piece is crafted with care and intention, designed to reflect your personal story and style. We believe that jewelry should be as unique as the person wearing it.

Private Events
From bridal showers and bachelorette parties to weddings and celebrations, we bring the permanent jewelry experience to your special moments, creating shared memories that last a lifetime.

Our Promise

At Eight14 Designs, we understand that the most meaningful things in life aren't just possessions—they're connections, memories, and moments shared with the people we love. Every piece we create, every event we host, and every customer we serve is treated with the same love and care that the date August 14th represents to me.

We're honored to be part of your story, to help you celebrate your connections, and to create jewelry that becomes part of your legacy.
