    We worked with Samuel and Dennis on two sapphire engagement rings over the course of a few months. They helped us find beautiful stones and worked with us over several iterations of each ring to find the perfect designs. We were both so happy with how communicative, honest, and friendly they were and are overjoyed with how our rings turned out. We highly recommend Joy Creations to anyone for custom ring designs!

    I worked with Samuel to restore my grandfathers wedding ring and make some adjustments. They were able to work with me on making sure the ring stayed as close to the original design as possible, all the while adapting to the adjustments I wanted to have done. Their communication was consistently clear and informative, and their process was very straight forward. I had full trust in the team every step of the way.

    They made an unbelievable engagement ring for me to propose. Took a picture I drew and literally brought it to light. Sam is an expert and helps you find exactly what you want. Then Dennis .... Well Dennis is a magician that makes you exactly what you picture in your head Highly recommend and guarantee they'll give you the best service and better jewelry then you even hoped

    The team at Joy Creations was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. They helped me plan out my piece from start to finish and gave great advice and recommendations on stone settings. Samuel was very responsive on emails and easy to communicate with. We ran into a small sizing issue with the ring which they handled very professionally. They were happy to make the changes that were necessary to ensure the piece fit right. I am very happy with the final product and the overall experience!

    We couldn't be more happy with our wedding rings that created by Joy Creations. I contact Samuel in January to make two customized wedding bands and he was very quick to respond and very honest with the price and not pushy to sell at all. Samuel was very patient throughout the design process cause he provided me more than 10 different designs. And he didn't ask for any deposit during the design process and he explained that I don't have any obligation to buy from them if I didn't like the design. But I am very happy Samuel make the perfect design at the end. Once we decide on the design we got our rings in about a month. The final products are even more beautiful than I can ever imagine. Thank you Samuel and Dennis for your hard work and fixing the damage caused by my partner so quickly.

    Awesome and amazing service!! We were looking for someplace to resize my engagement and wedding rings and since we had gems on the sides we were worried no place would do them. We emailed Joy Creations and the wonderful Samuel was super quick to respond to our inquire. We booked a consultation on Dec 4th and he inspected and provided us with a quote right away. He also informed us that it would take about 3-4 weeks as it was holiday season, which didn't surprise us. Cut to Dec 11 (a week later) and he emails us to let us know they were ready for pick (which WOW that was quick!) We went in and they fit perfectly - didn't notice any changes and we paid a really good price for the both of them! Overall a great experience and great people! Would definitely recommend!

    I had a really good experience with Samuel at Joy Creations. Despite it being a fairly simple design, he was still engaged and motivated to help me make the perfect ring for my girlfriend. He was helpful and professional throughout the process. He gave some great advice on the diamond purchase and the final product was beautiful. He was also very helpful in resizing it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

    I went to Joy Creations because the band of my engagement ring broke. I spoke with Sam, who provided me with various options for fixing the ring. I asked him what option he felt was the best for this situation and he indicated what he would do. He provided a quote for the work and a timeframe, and he delivered on both. A jewellery designer, he showed me a ring he was working on and explained what went into developing the piece, and it was impressive. I felt a bit embarrassed giving him the boring task of ring band repair. But he treated the work of saving my rings as respectfully as his design work, the result of which is a hope to bring him more of the latter.

    I worked with Samuel to design and create an engagement ring - my fiancé and I couldn't be happier! Samuel was very diligent and provided clear explanations to everything along the process. He keeps consistent communication even outside the opening hours of the store which was awesome. Samuel and Dennis were both very accommodating to an impromptu timeline I had asked for because of a last minute trip that was scheduled on my end. Without sacrificing on the quality with the expedited timeline, they did a spectacular job. The quality of the stone and the ring is stunning and even after having to come back to resize, Samuel and Dennis did it flawlessly in very minimal time. I would highly recommend going to them for anyone starting to think about the process of an engagement ring!

    I am so thrilled with this ring! I had some of my grandmother's wedding rings and I asked Samuel and Dennis go incorporate it into one engagement ring on a gold band. I sketched my design only using a sketch I had made and if came out so beautifully! The whole process only took a little over a month and Joy Creations definitely gives you the best value for what works within your budget. Thank you again!

    A very easy and comfortable process to take jewelry I already had and cherished but no longer wore, and to convert it into a beautiful ring that reflects my now partnership. I had a ring created from a design I already owned, it is exactly what I wanted. I received very good advice in the process, I felt the service was transparent, honest and fair. Totally recommend!

    We cannot thank Samuel enough! After reaching out to a number of different custom ring design companies and being turned away, my fiancé finally found Samuel! Samuel worked with my fiancé to create a completely custom ring. He came to Samuel with a 3D model design and worked with him to ensure the ring was perfect. He provided his expert advise and years of experience. Samuel was very patient, timely and easy to communicate with. Thank you so much Samuel and Joy Creations!

    Went to get my ringz resized and they discussed multiple ways of achieving my needs since I had a complicated, textures band. Their gold smith did a beautiful job of recreating it into one larger band from scratch.

  • 5/5 John 1 year ago on Google
    I wanted to make adjustments to the prongs on a ring. Dennis was very friendly and took the time to explain the process for the adjustments and the result it would have on the ring. He provided objective information but also offered his expert opinion; I felt that the suggestions he offered were in my best interest. The overall process was quick and efficient. The prongs on the ring looked much better after Dennis made the adjustments. Highly recommend Joy Creations for any jewelry needs.

  • 5/5 Kim D. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing service, they were able to do a tricky repair on a ring that was very special to me. My ring was bent out of shape and I wasn't wearing it for fear of losing it. I nearly cried when I was able to wear it again. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Mathieu P. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place, Sam was very kind in working with us to get the perfect ring. He was very open and transparent on the price structure as well. Price is very reasonable considering it is a custom ring.

  • 5/5 Greg F. 1 year ago on Google
    Sam was extremely caring and informative throughout the entire process of my engagement ring resizing. The ring is platinum and not many others were willing to help us with resizing this ring, we were referred to Joy Creations from another jewelry shop and they did not disappoint. I would confidently recommend Sam and the rest of the team to anyone.

  • 5/5 Trecia K. 1 year ago on Google
    I went to Joy Creations to repair two necklaces and they did such a beautiful job. I could not be more happy with the customer service and the work they did. I would highly recommend Joy Creations to anyone. Thank you so much! I'm very grateful.

  • 5/5 Fatima S. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic experience with Samuel! I highly recommend anyone who is looking for a jeweler to truly consider working with Joy Creations. Samuel provided a very professional intake appointment about what I wanted done with my engagement ring. Sam addressed every question and concern I had while also providing unbiased recommendations. Absolute pleasure to work with and I am excited to continue to work with them for any and all my future jewelry needs.

  • 5/5 Crystal Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent customer service! Highly recommended if you want your rings to be unique and special. Joy creations really proved us the best consultations to customise our wedding rings! Price is fair and worthy for it!

  • 5/5 Melody W. 1 year ago on Google
    Went in to have my mothers engagement ring sized up two sizes for my own. The turn around time was crazy quick, and the ring came back fitting perfectly and sparkling! The professionalism was outstanding, with fantastic communication throughout the wait time. I will continue coming back, and will recommend this business to anyone 🥰

  • 5/5 Christopher Z. 1 year ago on Google
    I can't say enough about our experience at Joy Creations! Sam and Dennis help me design and create the most beautiful engagement ring. When we went back to have our wedding bands made, Dennis spent hours in the workshop with us and took us through two different ring-making processes so that we could make each others' wedding bands. Sam and Dennis are personable, fun, and hilarious. They are both pros. Their work is amazing. Their pricing is extremely reasonable compared to the competition. They offer a personal experience that you don't get at high-end jewelry franchises. These two men are masters at their trade. They have the most genuine hearts. We will most definitely be giving them our business again in the future!

  • 5/5 Allan Q. 2 years ago on Google
    I brought in my wife's engagement ring for an estimate for significant repairs to the band and to replace a missing baguette and as well to check all the other diamonds to ensure their integrity. The people at Joy Creations were very professional, provided an estimate and a timeline to complete the work. The ring was ready before the scheduled date and we were very happy with the quality of the work and can't believe how beautiful the ring looks and i must say the cost was very reasonable.

  • 5/5 Mike G. 2 years ago on Google
    I (Lynne, on hubby’s account) had my engagement ring reno’d at Joy Creations, and I am beyond thrilled with the creation that Samuel designed and realized for me. This is the place to bring your beloved metals and jewels. No hesitation, do it, fall in love with your piece all over again. Best in Ottawa.

  • 5/5 Myriam C. 2 years ago on Google
    The customer service at Joy Creation is amazing. Joy Creation took a family heirloom band and turned it into my fiancée's wedding band. It's a beautiful piece! Joy Creation not only created this ring that we will forever cherish, but they also educated us in jewelry so we could be more prepared when we went to buy my own ring. Thank you Samuel and Dennis! Your work is phenomenal!

  • 5/5 Joy S. 2 years ago on Google
    I took my engagement ring for resizing at Joy Creations this past month and I had a great experience. Samuel was kind, clear about the process, helped me to find my correct ring size, was extremely flexible about appointment scheduling, and guided me well throughout. My ring needed to go up two sizes, and Samuel warned me that with rose gold, it can sometimes be difficult to colour match the new gold to the existing ring. When I picked up my ring this past weekend, I was prepared for there to be a visible patch (this wouldn't have been a concern for me), but I can't see any difference at all! All my thanks and kudos to Samuel for his excellent work. I will definitely return to Joy Creations for my future jewelry repair or sizing needs, and for any custom projects I might be able to dream up! This place is a gem in and of itself.

    There is a good reason why Joy Creations has so many 5-star reviews. They are awesome! Samuel is the best. He's honest, flexible, and does beautiful work. And Dennis is a true craftsman. I recommend Joy Creations to anyone looking to support local. These guys are the real deal!

  • 5/5 Philip Fleuriau C. 2 years ago on Google
    My experiences with Joy Creations over the last couple of years have been wonderful. They are the textbook definition of friendly, skilled, reliable, creative and organized, which they remain despite a recent move to new digs. If you are looking for excellence In quality custom jewelry, this is the place to go!!! I will take any new business there, whenever the need or desire arises!

  • 5/5 Vivian T. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing place! They did my engagement ring and my wedding bands. No pressure, very informative, and lovely rings. Working with Sam was a pleasure! Very patient with all our questions and very accommodating. Highly recommend

  • 5/5 Sean B. 2 years ago on Google
    I am extremely happy with my interactions with Samuel at Joy Creations. He listened to what I was looking for, provided some excellent advice to fine tune what I was asking for, and worked within my budget. I believe Joy Creations provided me with excellent value for my money. I'm very happy with the finished product and will definitely return when it is time for another piece of custom jewelry.

  • 5/5 Brandon N. 2 years ago on Google
    10/10. Amazing personality in a small shop. Ditch the mall and head to the Glebe. I drove from Toronto for this shop and would do it again. I now have a wedding band that personal to me. They treat their customers with care and detail. I have nothing negative to say. Do yourself a favor and schedule a visit.

  • 5/5 Steve C. 2 years ago on Google
    I found Joy Creations through their stellar online reviews and was impressed from the first point of contact through to picking up the final product. I had an old stone cleaned up and reset in a beautifully designed new band to create a unique heirloom piece, using material from the old ring. The attention to detail, in terms of both customer service and quality, was evident throughout the process. Thank you Samuel for all the hard work!

  • 5/5 Kevin R. 2 years ago on Google
    Sam and Dennis are talented experts and great people. Each interaction we've had has been friendly, professional, and incredibly supportive. Their inventory is beautiful. Their custom work is unparalleled. If you care about value, supporting good people, or getting the best possible product, search no further than Joy Creations. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Laura H. 1 year ago on Google • 1 review
    Sam was helpful and informative throughout the entire ring designing and creating process, through countless emails and in person appointments. Sam was always patient even when I decided to drastically change the ring design halfway through the design change, only to change it back to the original design. Thank you so much for creating the rings of my dreams!

  • 5/5 Hannah K. 8 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    I can't thank Joy Creations enough! I was on a tight timeline to polish/clean my engagement ring before my wedding, and they were able to bring me in and finish the job so quickly. It sparkled in all of my wedding photos, which was all thanks to their team! They are so professional, efficient, and personable - I would highly recommend them!
