Our Guarantee

DJB stands behind our jewelry creations.  If there are any quality issues with a purchased item, we will replace or repair the item to our customers' satisfaction.   Store credit is given for any unwanted items returned with receipt within 30 days of purchase.


We even offer free "tailoring" for all purchased gifts.  We can shorten or lengthen most necklaces and bracelets to fit specific measurements if needed.

Donna Chipp, the founder of Donna's Jewelry Box, spent her first 32 business years in the direct marketing field.  When her job moved to Omaha   after adopting a child, she decided to remain in Illinois with her family.  When finding a new marketing job didn't work out, she took her life-long love of gemstone jewelry into a new venture.  


Donna and her family  started out doing flea markets and art shows.  Response was good so they decided to open a store in their home town of St. Charles, IL in 2009.  For three years, the business slowly grew until the overall economy forced its closure.  ​With the help of Glori Wilson (Donna's sister) a second store  opened in Marengo about two years ago.  Now with the strong support of local shoppers,  hopes are high for a successful future.
