Create Your Own Jewelry at Fall Creek Atelier
Make your next outing a little more creative at Fall Creek Atelier. Whether you’re an Ithaca local or visiting the Finger Lakes, stop in with a friend, partner, or small group and create a piece of jewelry that feels completely your own.
Choose from a colorful selection of gemstones, meaningful charms, delicate chains, and other jewelry components to design a custom necklace, pair of earrings, bracelet, anklet, or hand chain. We’ll bring your design to life right in the boutique, with most pieces ready to wear within minutes.
The Custom Jewelry Bar is available Tuesday through Friday during normal boutique hours.
Permanent Jewelry
Permanent jewelry is a fun, personalized experience where you choose a bracelet, anklet, necklace, or hand chain that is fitted just for you and seamlessly welded closed without a clasp. The process takes only a few minutes, is quick and painless, and leaves you with a beautiful, effortless piece you can enjoy every day.
Its popularity comes from the experience as much as the jewelry itself. Permanent jewelry can mark a friendship, relationship, milestone, celebration, or simply serve as a luxurious everyday piece you never have to remember to put on. It can be worn alone for a delicate look or layered with other pieces to create a more elevated, collected style.
Choose from a wide selection of gold and silver chains, including gemstone-accented designs, then personalize your piece with charms, gemstone charms, or meaningful birthstones. Each piece is carefully sized and finished just for you, creating a refined, one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry made to become part of your everyday life.
