About Us

Welcome to Personalized Wedding Gifts by Susabella and thank you for visiting our shop!

Susabella specializes in personalized pieces from custom wedding gifts to baby and baptism gifts, pet gifts and much more. Each item typically take about 1-2 weeks to make. Some are much faster and some pieces take a bit longer, please view the individual item for the approximate lead time.

We celebrate all of life's moments and every piece is hand crafted so no two items are the same. Most items can come with a beautiful gift box ready to give or keep for yourself. We love custom orders so if you have an idea, please send a message.

All products are handcrafted and personalized, just for you!

Each item is created and shipped straight from the studio in Washington State by our small, family run team.

Our Story

Susabella was founded by Susan Shapiro in November 2011. Susan previously owned a graphic and web design business for nearly ten years.

After having her son she decided to take a break but missed having a creative outlet. Her mother-in-law who has done pottery for years, encouraged her to take a class and that's how it all began.

She soon discovered that she could blend her love of all things wedding, baby, home and pottery related into a new business crafting heirloom accessories and gifts.

Slideshow

Every piece is handcrafted, stamped and glazed so no two items are the same. Many of our items are wedding or milestone related, so we create heirloom-quality pieces that can be passed down or re-used. All our clay and glaze is both nontoxic and food safe.

Handmade Platters

Our process starts with a big block of earthenware clay. We then smooth it out with a slab roller, and mold the pieces. Next, we hand-stamp each piece and set them out to dry, which can take anywhere from a few days to a weeks, depending on the size. When they are dry enough, we do a bisque firing and glaze each piece before firing them one last time.

Kiln Fired Ceramics

The majority of our orders are custom pieces, and we love when a customer asks for something new and different. It’s fun to see their ideas come to life, and we really appreciate it when a customer takes time to leave feedback or send an email to let us know how much they liked their piece. Our team puts love and care into everything they create, as if it was being sent to their own family and friends.

Birthstone Jewelry

Our personalized jewelry makes a perfect addition to any of our keepsake boxes. All jewelry is carefully assembled by hand in our studio, ready to ship in only 1-2 business days. Most pieces can be personalized with a birthstone, initial charm, zodiac, or birth flower. Our chains are available in 14K gold-filled, sterling silver, rose gold, and plated metal.

Careful Packaging

Shipping is the final step of our process. All orders are hand packaged with love and care by a dedicated shipping team.

Each piece is wrapped separately in bubble wrap and surrounded with protective padding for a safe journey in transit. On the rare occasion an item is damaged in transit, we are happy to send a complementary replacement.
