On Being Brave, thoughts on life and mortality
I originally designed this bracelet for a beautiful young woman – using her mother's words from near the end of her life. Her father read from the notebook she had kept at her funeral. She’d been in pain and on a lot of drugs, so they were disparate thoughts, lists and memories, but interspersed throughout: the phrase 'be brave,' again and again, like a mantra to herself, and finally right near the end, 'be brave, it's supposed to be hard.' ...

from 1052 reviewsLove my crone necklace, the second piece I've purchased. Came quickly and well packaged. I've had many compliments and am already looking for my next treat to myself!

A wonderful piece of jewellery that makes a statement!

I'm so grateful to Sarah for making this necklace happen, my quote was at the maximum of what would fit but she made it work and my mum adores it. The little details are really what makes this necklace special. It's clear that a lot of care and consideration went into the design and where it sits on the chest, as well as the little charms on the end of the chain, it feels like a completely realised idea and the result is stunning. Couldn't be happier or recommend it more!

I love this charm bracelet - gives me a bit of courage to start the day! Lovely to wear with one or more charms, well made and fun :)

Lovely choker. Looks amazing! Plus it glows in the dark and I love it that you can choose from a selection of colours.

I ordered this necklace to wear at my band’s first gig showcasing our original songs. Sarah was super helpful, ensuring that the necklace arrived on time.
The necklace itself is so beautiful: great design, inspiring wording and makes a statement.
Thank you so much. I’ll definitely be placing orders with you again.

I bought the moss green heart earrings for my funky, punky daughter for Valentines! They're great, comfy and she loves them! And they've got heaps of attitude (just like her!)

I have been following Wear and Resist for years from the US. I wear it on those days when I need the affirmations and have gotten so many positive comments on it.

I got this bracelet to help me through a tough time. It helped to remind me to have my own back, even when it's hard.

The thunderbolt earrings are beautifully crafted and very lightweight. I was able to reach out to the owner with a question, which brought a personal touch to an internet shopping experience. Delighted to discover the jewelry of Wear and Resist. It cheers me up and cheers me on!

Got this for my mums birthday and she absolutely adores it! The quality is amazing and the customer service is brilliant as well, will definitely be ordering again, thank you xx

I treated myself to this as a Valentine's present - well why not? Every time I wear it I get compliments and people asking where I got it. I only wish I could buy more sweary charms for it!

Thank you so much for all your help and the repairs. So glad these earrings are ready to go again, I love them! I love that this service exists, so great. Thank you! ❤️

Having already got the 'poet' necklace, I had to get this too. Beautiful necklace, well-made, great design, and I love that the chain has the option to fasten it at three different lengths. I wish more necklaces did this, as the length I want varies according to my outfit! I also love that Sarah is an independent artist working with her daughter, and that they support a variety of women's charities. As a sweary woman and poet, I'll be wearing both necklaces to perform at readings in person and online!

As soon as a fellow poet posted a picture of herself on Insta wearing this, I had to get it. Beautiful necklace, well-made, great design, and I love that the chain has the option to fasten it at three different lengths. I wish more necklaces did this, as the length I want varies according to my outfit! I also love that Sarah is an independent artist working with her daughter, and that they support a variety of women's charities. I have already bought another necklace. I am wearing this to my MA in Writing Poetry seminars at The Poetry School and will certainly wear it when performing at readings in person and online!
