Travel Charms

Meet Rebecca, our Design Manager at Dogeared. She recently took some well-deserved time off and hopped a plane to Europe! We sent along one of our Travel Charms necklaces to watch over her.

The Travel Charms are jewels to journey in – St. Christopher, the patron saint of safe travels and epic adventures & the Angel Wings to remind you that when in doubt…you can always wing it!

She shared photos with us and stories of how she “winged it”, letting her travels guide her, and not the other way around:


I had the pleasure to travel to central Europe for 10 days starting in Prague, then Vienna and finally to my favorite, Budapest. My goal for this vacation was to not plan a trip, but let the trip unfold authentically without expectation. Popping into a grand church or brunching at a viennese cafe on a whim is precisely what I found abroad. We jumped on a bus with no clue where it would end and got off only once we were lost enough not to be able to easily find our way back but instead discovering the most beautiful view of Budapest in a small park on a hillside.

Happy Father’s Day

Our AMAZING Dogeared Dads weighed in on what it means to be a father and the best parts of fatherhood. For their special day this year, we asked them to share their answers with us. Let’s see what they had to say!

Our Dogeared Dad: Jesus, Facilities Manager
Belinda, 6 & Belly, 2 

“I love to see my daughters improve each day!” FUN FACT- “We get ice cream every Sunday at Belinda’s favorite place named ‘La Cascada!”

Our Dogeared Dad: Chris, Quality Control
Nathan, 3 

“Being a father for the first time is the best thing ever! Now I have my little buddy and one day my BBQ grilling assistant!”

Our Dogeared Dad: Merlin, Co-Founder
Jordan, 18 & Grace, 15

“There are challenges to being a responsible Dad. While I still possess the same childlike sense of wonder they enjoy, this tends to blur the line between being a fun Dad and an embarrassing one.”

Our Dogeared Dad: Garr, Managing Director
Priya, 24 & Rory, 22 

“Each day as a Dad just gets better and better!”

Our Dogeared Dad: Omar, Accounting
Jaime, 10 & Angel, 8 

“The fun part of being a dad is that on Saturdays and Sundays there is always a trip to the park or hiking.The kids are two years apart and they both like different sports…so every time we are at the park I have to transform myself into “super dad!” I’m playing football with one but playing soccer with the other. Greatest feeling after every time we spend time together is to hear their little voice tell me ‘THANK YOU DADDY!”

Our NEWEST Soon-To-Be Dogeared Dad: Lewis, Graphic Design
Baby “bean”

“I feel I was born to be a father… I can’t wait to be able to love and teach our “bean” to be the best person he or she can be!”

To our amazing Dogeared Dads and to yours, Happy Father’s Day!
