Children’s Diamond Earrings – How to Pick the Right Ones
Children’s diamond earrings have become incredibly popular in recent years. This has led to an incredible number of options to choose from. I know of several parents or grandparents that have gotten their child or grandchild a set of diamond studs for their first birthday.
Diamond earrings will last forever. I have one friend that still has the earrings that she was given as a little girl. She is planning to give them to her daughter when she gets her ears pierced. That’s one of the great things about jewelry. Unlike other gifts such as handbags or clothing, jewelry can be passed from generation to generation. Some of the best pieces are the ones that have a story to go along with them.
Some of the simplest diamond earring for kids start at around $50 and can go up into the thousands. Some of the expensive pieces can be very beautiful. However, you have to remember that they are kids and kids are good a losing things. Many parents will only let their daughter wear her diamond earrings for special occasions to keep them from getting lost.
The most common type of children’s diamond earrings are small gems in a simple 14k gold setting. These can be found quite easily for under $100. You can also find earrings in the shapes of things like crosses or butterflies. I’ve even seen some in the shape of elephants or little rubber ducks. If your daughter is a little older, let her pick out the type that she would like. While classic diamond stud earrings are nice, you want her to get something that she will actually like to wear.
Right now, silver and white gold are very popular settings. Sterling silver diamond earrings are great if you are on a tighter budget. Whereas, 14k white gold diamond earrings are obviously going to be more expensive.
If you are going to give your daughter a nice piece of jewelry like this, then it is important that you teach her how to take care of it from an early age. Get her a fun little jewelry box. I loved my little ballerina jewelry box. This will help keep her earrings from getting lost.
It is also a good idea to teach her how to clear her jewelry. Cleaning it is very important to keep it looking nice and to keep from getting ear infections. Make cleaning her earrings a fun experience. You can usually find all kinds jewelry cleaners at places like Target or Wal-Mart.
Diamond earrings can be a fantastic gift for your daughter or granddaughter. She will treasure them for years to come.
