Origami Owl: A Great Mother's Day Gift Idea+ GIVEAWAY

Have you seen these darling charm bracelet-like necklaces by Origami Owl?  If I have seen one, I have seen a dozen different women wearing them in the past week alone. Aren't they adorable?

These are charm bracelets in the form of a necklace. They are beautiful and timeless, which makes sense, considering you design it! These lockets are truly amazing and no two are alike as they are designed by YOU to tell its own story. You can make them fancy with different chains, or perhaps a dangle or two, or can keep them as simple as can be. Creativity is the key with these beautiful lockets. The possibilities are endless.

First, you start with the charms you like.  (I am always a sucker for a lucky horseshoe and a soccer ball. There are so many to choose from.)  

Then you chose the locket...

And then the chain...

Voila!  A beautiful, personalize piece of jewelry!

These lockets also make wonderful and heartfelt gifts.  For the mom that you are never sure what to get, this necklace is a perfect Mother's Day gift. (And Mother's Day is just over a month away!)

Accessorize Like a Celebrity With marie chavez Jewelry + $100 Gift Certificate GIVEAWAY

What do I have in common with celebrities like Julia Roberts, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Anne Hathaway, and Kate Bosworth?

We all love to wear marie chavez jewelry!

A few months ago, I received an amazing marie chavez bracelet set for my birthday and fell in love with it immediately.  (My daughter did, too, so I have to keep a very close eye on it!)  I was so excited about my new bracelet set that I had to visit the online shop to find out what other pieces were available, and, boy, did I hit the mother load! 

I was blown away by all the beautiful pieces and loved the fact that they all seem so versatile, so chic, so now, and, yet, not too trendy.  (That is a very difficult mix to achieve, if you ask me.)

mariechavez was established over a decade ago by designer Julie Marie Chavez. What’s most notable about the collection is its signature blend of carefully selected stones, charms and chain all worked together to create coveted yet easy to wear accessories. From playful stackable bracelets of graywood, jade and bronze, to a layered statement necklace of riverstone and agate, Julie’s talent for tastefully balancing colors and textures is why many pieces in her collection have graced the pages of InStyle, Lucky, Glamour, People and Us Weekly.

Hooray!  It's a Giveaway!
