BLING TO YOUR LIFE
Big style comes in small packages with these good-looking accessories
First Time: Things
Silver and Gold

It’s set with a peridot “pickleball,” and Workman can customize the back with initials or dates. Paddle with Bezel Set Peridot, $149 for sterling silver, $500 for 10K gold; pickleball-bling.com
Double Hit
Who says your love of the game can’t go beyond activewear? Make your passion for pickleball known with these handmade sterling silver cuff links and matching tie clip, which look great in boardrooms, at black-tie events, and everywhere in between.

Lock On
Players of any age will love the wood keychains that the artisans at BrazenBear Woodworks hand paint in nearly any color (or they’ll leave it natural, if you prefer). Each paddle is about two inches in length yet lightweight, so it won’t add extra heft to a pocket or bag. And they make great little gifts.
