This year, I saw her tweet about a necklace from Etsy that said "geek." I rushed to open the link, hoping I could return the "Secret Santa" favour, only to find that it was already sold out. At that point, I became a woman on a mission! Unfortunately, I wasn't finding anything that I really liked - that was good enough for her.
In my poking around, I stumbled across Sugar and Vice's Etsy shop. Sugar and Vice does a wide range of jewellery and accessories, including custom orders! Feeling inspiration strike, I sent a message asking if they'd be able to duplicate a font. Sarah replied very quickly, telling me that as long as I knew the name of the font, chances were that she could copy it. With the help of the wonderful inoculatted (who identified the font for me), I was able to order a "geek" necklace in the font on Mommy Geekology's website! I was SO excited, it was damn-near impossible for me not to immediately tell Mommy Geekology about the amazeballs gift that would be coming her way.
Unfortunately, with mail over Christmas, the first necklace disappeared into the ether (and still hasn't surfaced: I think maybe a postal worker somewhere is currently sporting a REALLY cool necklace). However, Sarah was FANTASTIC. She was super accommodating and whipped up a replacement as soon as I let her know that the first seemed to have gone AWOL. She was easy to work with and GREAT at getting back to me super quickly. And I'd say the proof is in the happy-grin-pudding:

Is that AWESOME or what?!? I was *so* happy with how it turned out! I didn't get to see it first-hand because Sarah shipped it directly to Mommy Geekology on my behalf, but based on her happiness with the finished product, I'm highly impressed.
I would recommend Sugar and Vice in a heartbeat. Go check out Sarah's excellent work!
This is not a paid or sponsored post: I paid for this item with my own money and was so impressed, I decided to share.
