Handwriting Heart Medallion - Large
We all have handwritten notes from loved ones that are so special to us. A note from your sweetheart or best friend, your kids' lettering, a special signature or scribble – the sky is the limit. Now you can turn their handwriting into an heirloom piece that tells that special story.
Our loose charms ship with a large jumpring that will allow it to slip over the clasp of our Dainty Chain necklace, used with all of our Classic Silhouette necklaces, for easy at home assembly. You can also purchase a chain with your charm and leave a note during checkout that you would like them assembled together.
If you are adding on to an existing VCS, please reach out to us to coordinate assembly.

Photo Tips for Perfect Silhouettes
- Place subject in front of a well-lit background, facing either left or right.
- Only one side of the face must show on the photo and entire head should be in the photo.
- A relaxed face helps to show the features (eyelashes, nose, lips) more realistically although smiling faces are cute too. It's up to you how you want to photograph them.
- Pictures taken with a phone camera work too. Just make sure to take the photos in good lighting, during the daytime is preferred.
- If photographing more than one person, take individual pictures.
- Remember to take the picture straight at eye level with the person you are photographing, standing about 2-4 feet away.
- If person has long hair (past the shoulder line) put it up. Ponytails, braids, messy buns really do make for cute silhouettes and add character to the final silhouette.
- For full body silhouettes, take a picture of the people standing, walking away or towards the camera. This works well when photographing siblings.
- When photographing babies, try taking the picture when they are asleep. Hold the camera directly above their face, with only one side of the face showing.
