Before Sun & Moon, I spent fifteen years in orthodontics. 

Meet Ivie

I built a career I was proud of, but I always had a creative side and wondered if one day I would find something that felt completely my own.

A few years ago, I set a personal goal for myself. I wanted something I could see every day that would remind me of the commitment I had made and, more importantly, why I had made it.

That's when I found permanent jewelry.

I chose two bracelets with my children's initials and put them on my dominant hand, where I knew I would see them constantly. They were beautiful, but they were also a reminder. Every time I looked down, there were my kids. There was my why.

Eventually, I reached the goal I had set for myself.

But those bracelets stayed with me.
And somewhere in that experience, I realized permanent jewelry could be so much more than just jewelry.

A piece of jewelry can represent a person you love. A friendship. A milestone. A new beginning. A promise you've made to yourself. It can connect you to another person or simply remind you of something you never want to forget.
And sometimes? You choose it just because you absolutely love it.
That's what made permanent jewelry feel so special to me. It's personal.

Once I saw it that way, I couldn't stop thinking about creating that experience for other people. I wanted to give people a place where they could choose something beautiful, make it completely their own, and walk away wearing a piece of whatever brought them through the door.

The more I explored the idea, the more the path seemed to open.

And I knew I had to follow it.

“IT CAN BE BEAUTIFUL AND STILL MEAN SOMETHING.”

Sun and Moon, Day and Night, A Constant Reminder

The name Sun & Moon came from the idea of something constant—day and night, always there. That's what those first bracelets had been for me: a small reminder I carried with me every day.

Now I get to create those pieces for other people.  I've watched customers choose jewelry to celebrate their children, friendships, marriages, birthdays, anniversaries, accomplishments and new chapters. I've also watched someone fall in love with a chain simply because it's freaking gorgeous and they want it. Both matter. Because the meaning doesn't come from the jewelry. It comes from the person wearing it.  And that's what Sun & Moon Permanent Jewelry is all about.
