My boyfriend and I were shopping around for a jeweler to help us create a custom ring. We weren't looking for anything super fancy, but wanting a rose-gold band proved difficult to find so we decided to go custom-made.
We saw a few jewelers and happily chose Karen MacRae at Made you Look to help us create our ring. We have busy schedules so the hours and the support the shop gave to Karen really worked for us. We were very happy with the design Karen helped make for us and the suggestions she made were on point.
It's not easy to make an expensive decision based on little experience so I really appreciated the help of Karen and the entire staff at Made you Look. The advice and suggestions were always genuine and felt like they were about our creation (and not their profit margin).
Another jeweler in the distillery district was the exact opposite. He was defensive about his pricing from our first (and only) consultation and didn't follow-up with our request for a 2nd meeting so we moved on... for the better.
