Forever & Always: The Welded Bonds Process - What to Expect at Your Appointment

Well hello there, lovely! Lau here, and if you've been eyeing up our gorgeous Welded Bonds permanent jewellery, you might be wondering, "How exactly does that magic happen?" It's a question I get all the time, and I promise you, the process is just as delightful and personal as the jewellery itself!

Getting a Welded Bond is more than just choosing a chain; it's an experience, a moment to mark a connection, a milestone, or simply treat yourself to a little everyday sparkle. And guess what? It’s completely painless, super quick, and incredibly fun!

So, let's walk through what you can expect when you come for your Welded Bonds appointment with Created By Lau.

Step 1: Your Warm Welcome & Inspiration

First things first, you'll be greeted with a warm Yorkshire welcome! Whether you've booked a private appointment or found us at a pop-up event, I'll make sure you feel right at home.

This is your chance to get inspired! We'll chat about what kind of bond you're looking for – perhaps a lasting friendship bracelet, a symbol of self-love, a mother-daughter connection, or just a stunning piece to elevate your everyday style.

Step 2: Choosing Your Perfect Chain

Now for the exciting part – picking your forever chain! I'll guide you through our beautiful selection of high-quality chains, available in a variety of styles and metals.

Remember our chat about metals? This is where that comes in handy! You can choose from:

• Stainless Steel (including our ultra-durable PVD Coated Gold) for strength and hypoallergenic comfort.

• Luxurious Gold Vermeil for that gorgeous real gold look over sterling silver.

• Elegant 9K Gold for a true everyday investment.

• Classic Sterling Silver for timeless shine.

• And our robust Gold-Filled options, a durable alternative to solid gold.

We'll hold the chains up to your skin, see what catches your eye, and ensure it drapes just perfectly. The goal is to find a chain that truly resonates with you and your unique style.

Step 3: The Custom Fit – Just for You

Once you've chosen your dream chain, we'll get the perfect measurement. This is crucial for comfort and wearability. We'll size it directly on your wrist, ankle, or neck to ensure it’s just right – not too tight, not too loose. It'll feel like a second skin!

Step 4: The Spark of Connection – The Welding Magic!

This is where the "permanent" magic happens! Using a tiny, safe, and completely painless micro-welder, I'll custom fit and weld the chain directly onto you. There's no clasp to fiddle with, no risk of it falling off, just a seamless, beautiful loop of metal.

You'll see a small, harmless spark – it's fascinating to watch! Don't worry, it's quick, totally safe, and protected. Many people find it quite a mesmerising moment, a tiny flash that seals your forever bond. The whole welding process takes mere seconds!

Step 5: Admire Your Forever Bond!

And just like that, you're done! Your new Welded Bond is now a beautiful, unique part of you. We'll give it a quick polish, and then you can admire your new, effortless sparkle. It's ready to go wherever life takes you, a constant reminder of whatever it is you want it to represent.

A Few Quick Reminders:

• Care for your bond: While durable, remember our care tips from the metals blog – avoid harsh chemicals and clean regularly with a soft cloth.

• Need a change? If you ever need to remove it (for medical reasons, for example), simply snip the jump ring (the tiny connecting loop) with sharp scissors. We also offer re-welding services if you change your mind later!

Getting a Welded Bond is a truly special, personal experience. It's about celebrating connections, cherishing moments, and owning a piece of unique, high-quality jewellery that's as individual as you are.
