It is a shop that tells stories with jewelry.
It is fun to review products. It always comes as a surprise and delight that someone would entrust their product to me...and thinks enough of this little blog to send me a gift to post about.
I can honestly say this Origami Owl locket is one of the nicest things I've ever received from a shop. Like, ever. From picking out the charms to put in the locket, to the packaging, to the quality of the actual pieces--I was blown away! Besides being beautiful, the necklace means something.
I chose five charms~ a football and number 7 for Philly (he is the 7th 'Philip Schuyler Smith' in our family:)...a painter's palette and headphones for Niamh, a symbol for infinity (because that's our family 'love' word), and I added a pearl dangle because that is Phil's birthstone. I chose the 'mama' plate for behind the charms...and now I have a necklace that feels like a little piece of family is always with me:).

Seriously loved this necklace.
It even comes with a 'fortune cookie' for safe keeping.
A cookie to keep your treasure in...
It doesn't get any sweeter than that!
Oh my goodness, how adorrrrable!

What a beautiful concept! I will have to check out their site. I usually don't wear any jewelry except my wedding ring but this seems like something I would because it would mean something :) I love your idea of chosing something to represent every member of the family so it truly is like having them with you everywhere you go. You are such a beautiful person inside, and out so I love reading your blog. It is always so uplifting. Your hair looks gorgeous! Such a pretty color on you!
ReplyDeleteOrigami Owl is amazing! I like how you have picked your charms...so nice to represent everyone in your family. I am in the process of signing up...can't wait to get started!
ReplyDeleteCan you tell me the length of your necklace? I want to buy one for my niece but having a hard time trying to decide which length to buy her. Yours looks great!! I love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
