We've all, myself included, heard far too much about Covid-19 in the past couple of weeks. Stress, shelter-in-place, social distancing, and Lysol. Lots and lots of Lysol. 

Today I'm here to bring a little bit of stress relief to your life. Last Friday I sent out a newsletter with some fun kid’s activities to do during the shelter in place. I had such a positive response to the newsletter that I thought I’d make it public for all to access.

Click on the printables below to print these out. Take some time to yourself as you or your kids color these as a small family friendly activity. All coloring sheets were sourced online.

Another resource I want to share with you is GemKids. GemKids is a fun and interactive branch of Gemological Institute of America. Send your kids here to learn about different gems + jewels, fun history, word of the day everyday, and other fun gems! It's a safe and interesting website that your kids can peruse when they need something to do! Click the photo below to be redirected to the site.

I hope these things help to ease you + your kiddos minds during this shelter in place. If you’e like to see more things like this, please shoot me an email! Have a wonderful rest of your week!

In this time of uncertainty and abnormal schedules, new norms, and quarantine for most of the globe, I just wanted to update you on the changes that I’ve had to make for my business at this time.

My family and I have been closely monitoring the Covid-19 developments and have decided that in-person appointments are temporarily unavailable. The safety of my family + my clients is top priority.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are the specific changes I’ve decided to implement for the safety + health of my clients + my family:

Redesign + new jewelry is business as usual, expect a slower process due to other business closures

Please contact me if you’re planning on purchasing jewelry for a loved one during this time! Although the world seems to be at a standstill, high school seniors and college seniors are still graduating, Mother’s Day is still May 10, birthdays are still happening, and people need a little sparkle in their lives now more than ever. Email me today if you’d like to chat with me about your jewelry needs.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Virtual appointments

In lieu of in-person appointments, I am happy to be scheduling virtual appointments! You can email me to set one up: emily@emilysole.com. We can chat ‘face to face’ over technology, you can show me your jewelry, or we can chat about any jewelry ideas you had in mind!

Free Delivery + pickups

To keep everyone safe and happy at this time, I’m offering free delivery or pickup of your jewelry from your front porch. I’ll drive to your home at an agreed upon time and, making sure you’re at the door, I can set your jewelry in a safe jewelry bag. I’ll step back and make sure I watch you take the jewelry or vice versa, so you know it’s in safe hands!

No repairs at this time

Due to circumstances out of my control, the jewelers I work closely with on repairs have had to close due to the Covid-19 outbreak. At this time, I cannot do any jewelry repairs.

I will be posting regularly on Instagram in order to add a little sparkle to your feeds and distract you from the current state of things with fun games, tips and tricks to make staying home more fun, and to stay in contact with this amazing online community. We’re all in this together! If you'd like to say hi, just send me an email. Let's bridge this gap between us while we are all staying within the walls of our homes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With all of the uncertainty happening in the world right now, let's band together as a community to make sure we come out of this stronger than before. Remember to wash your hands, stay inside, and be safe! ⠀
