Making our wedding rings with Heidi was one of the most cherished, special and unforgettable experiences of our wedding - one in which I will never forget and always remember every day as I wear my ring. My fiancé (at the time) and I found the idea of making our wedding rings soon after getting engaged. We were enthralled with the idea of by hand creating one of the most important symbols of our marriage and the one that literally and physically you are bound to every day. So we hit the internet, scouring the web for a jeweler or workshop that would allow us to make our rings while at the same time not breaking the bank. Hours of searching, calling and finding jewelers who wanted to change 5K for the experience became exhaustive. We were just about to give up and head to that good old chain Jeweler in a mall when we found Heidi and to this day still one the be best decisions my wife and I made about our entire wedding experience. We called Heidi and right away her friendliness shone through. She worked with us and made recommendations when we were lost on what the right size, material and styles of our rings. After speaking with her, she sent estimates for the cost and coming in just a tad over what we would of paid to just buy our rings at a chain jeweler...we knew we had found something special. We rented a car and drove up to Rehoboth (we live in DC) and arrived at Heidis studio on a Saturday morning. A little nervous of not knowing what to expect we walked in and right away were greeted by Heidi. Over the next 6 hours Heidi not only guided us though out process of hand making each others (you can make your own or if you wish to make your partners) rings but became a friend in the process. From the moment we walked in you could feel her passion not only for her art but for personalizing and making our experience the best possible. To start out with a dirty flat band of white gold and to end up with a shiny round wedding ring, is such an awesome feeling of creativity, passion and love. Throughout the process Heidi did a fantastic job of making us feel calm about what can be a little scary. Lighting your rings or fire and hammering it into shape can be scary but all along the way Heidi allowed us to have full control over the process while showing us each step and helping to craft the perfect ring. After a while all of the fears of running your minds are whisked away and you immerse yourself in the memorable experience and Heidis fun stories and presence. Once we were done with the experience we looked at our finish product in amazement. We couldnt believe we made such beautiful rings...we walked next-door the Dogfish Head Brewpub (what a location!) with large smiles and not one regret. Spending the afternoon at Heidis studio was truly an unforgettable experience that we get to relive just a little bit every day as we stare down at our beautiful rings. Ohh, and of course, this made for a very popular story at the wedding. Thank you Heidi for such a beautiful and special experience we will never forget.

The winter of 2015 we made rings at Heidis shop. It was the best experience we had. We quickly found out through the wedding process that there is a lot of unneeded "fluff". But as I tell people, despite all the wedding planning/ industry B-S, making our rings at Heidis studio was REAL. It was an incredible experience. We re-used both of my grandfathers rings and the grooms fathers spare ring to make these truly remarkable branch/ wood grain rings. Heidi was amazing throughout the process. She simply said: "I dont why people go to the store to do this, when its so much fun and more personalized this way." I couldnt agree with her more. We were so happy with our rings that when we got them back we started to wear them right away and have since. Our wedding is this September. I truly recommend this everyone. My fiance who wasnt really into any of the wedding stuff had such a great time with the hands on experience and couldnt stop telling all his friends about the neat adventure we had. Its a memory that will last a lifetime with us, and one day maybe our grandchildren will do something similar with our rings. We are thankful that Heidi offered this service and we always recommend this as a must do to our friends : )

Our experience for my engagement/wedding ring with Heidi was absolutely amazing. She blended a perfect amount of her creative input with our vision. I never tire of looking at my ring. I had worked with Heidi several times before, once designing a custom bracelet around my favorite collected sharks tooth. Again, she designed exactly what I had in mind even though I felt I was not explaining it well! Heidi is professional, fun, and so talented. I cant imagine ever working with another artist for jewelry. Last but not least, she works hard and pays attention to detail when bringing in beautiful talent to sell in her shop. If not a piece by Heidi one can always find something perfect by one of the other artists in her gallery.

The Heidi Lowe Gallery is the pearl of the oyster that is Rehoboth. I make it a point to visit the Gallery every time Im there and it always puts me in a great mood (her little shop is in a different stratosphere) . Heidi has done something very special here - she is a talented designer, teacher and curator. I bought one of her beach dune themed necklaces (abstract) last year and every time I wear it, I get a compliment. Heidi also holds jewelry making classes.

Heidi is an amazing maker, teacher, curator and artist. The gallery always has a changing selection of exciting, interesting, compelling work, including hers. I buy all my earrings from her gallery, amongst other pieces and always get compliments about them whenever I wear them. Heidi is a warm, welcoming, creative force of nature. She is the opposite of pretentious and is dedicated to educating and presenting artists jewelry to the public.

The only place I buy jewelry these days is at Heidi Lowes. She has a distinctive array of artist jewelry from around the country, and her own work is unique and exquisite. When my family and friends visit they all want to go to Heidis shop. If you live here, you may be lucky enough to take one of her small classes. They are great fun and with Heidis help anyone can produce wearable art!

I loved the service! Heidi Lowe has such wonderful pieces of artwork, and she and her staff are very kind and personable, helping to find just the right piece for you. Heidi designed our unique custom wedding rings, among other beautiful commissions, each receiving many compliments. I always enjoy my experience there, and love each treasure I have found!

Heidi is a wonderfully creative and talented jeweler. She will go the extra mile to be certain that you are satisfied with whatever you might choose to have her create. Her talent is matched with a terrific personality. She is passionate about what she does and takes enormous pride in her work.

I took the bezel setting with Heidi. She is a great teacher, I still remember her instructions step by step when I do the bezel setting on my own. It is a pleasure to work with Heidi and be part of the beautiful community she creates. Hoda khouri
