Live A Well Run Life
Meaningful Handmade Gifts for Life's Most Important Moments
A Well Run Life creates small-batch, handmade bronze charms and keychains designed to carry meaning. Whether you're searching for a sympathy gift, a way to say I'm always with you, or a keepsake for someone facing a big transition — our charms are made to be felt, not just seen.
Each charm is crafted by hand in Chandler, Arizona. No two are exactly alike. Customers have clipped them inside backpacks before a child leaves for college, tucked them into sympathy cards, added them to memory bracelets, and sent them across the country when distance made everything else feel too far. Small enough to carry anywhere. Meaningful enough to keep forever.

A portion of every purchase supports local programs that connect children with horses in the Phoenix, Arizona area — because we believe time in the barn can change a young person's life.
Handmade in Arizona since 2018.

We started making our Handmade Charms in 2018. It has been an amazing experience for us and the people who have given them as gifts. (Please see Why People Love Our Charms.)
The project supported Grace Farms in Chandler, AZ. We lost the lease to our farm in April 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic.
We now use this store to support local programs that connect children and horses. At our core, we see something remarkable happen when young people spend time alongside horses. The quiet presence, steady rhythms, and unspoken communication invite calm, confidence, and emotional growth. Through these interactions, kids often discover a sense of balance and self-trust that’s hard to reach elsewhere. Time in the barn can become a gentle doorway to resilience and inner strength. 🐎🌱
