Beach Foot Jewelry Review & Giveaway

I'm sure you've heard of Sailor's Knots before, but I found the coolest Sailor's Knot jewelry at Beach Foot Jewelry Etsy Shop. I was lucky enough to receive a Sailor's Knot Sweetheart Bracelet in Fern Green that I absolutely adore. It is made with leather cord and silver plated arched tubes that give it such a cool look. It's funky and they make it in such great colors. Not only that, but it has a super cute little foot charm on it that just adds an extra little fun touch. It has a 2 inch adjustable chain so it will fit wrists of varying sizes and closes with a lobster claw clasp. I do have a hard time doing up the clasp by myself for some reason and have had my son and my husband do it up for me the 2 times I've worn it so far, but other than that, it's fantastic! I have gotten several compliments on it both of the times I've worn it! Here's what the little card says that was attached to the bracelet when it arrived..."Old time sailors spent many months or years on the sea at a time. They created decorative and functional knots from the ropes of their ships. Some created knot bracelets to share with their sweethearts on the land, and others believed that the bracelets brought in good fortune." Isn't that fun?! Just think what a great gift this would be for a girlfriend or wife. Especially for those who like a more "cool" looking style of jewelry as opposed to a "fancy" style. Here's my bracelet in the gorgeous Fern Green color I chose!

Here's what it looks like on your wrist and I love the two worn together!

You can also get them in gold.

Here's another cool Knot bracelet called a Turk's Head Knot Bracelet.

I just love these cool knot bracelets. They are so different and classy looking. Beach Foot Jewelry isn't only about knot bracelets though. They have soooo many cool pieces. Here are a few I especially love... Barefoot Sandals

Ankle Cuff

Birthday Anklet

Bangle Bracelet

Charm Bracelet

Wrap Bracelet

Their styles are just so fresh and fun! They are so well put together and my Fern Green Sailor's Knot Sweetheart Bracelet is my new favorite bracelet. I'm so happy with the color I chose and love the silver accents. I'm also happy to tell you that Dawn from Beach Foot Jewelry is offering one of my readers a $15.00 gift certificate to her shop!

Products of 47 Review & Giveaway

I have found an Etsy shop that has the most colorful, beaded jewelry I've ever seen and I can't get enough! The gorgeous jewelry at Products of 47 Etsy shop and website is sure to take any outfit you own up a couple notches! Imagine my extreme excitement when I received an email from Leeann (the shop owner) telling me a package was on its way for me! I had no idea what to expect and when the package arrived, I have to admit I squealed with glee a little at what I found inside. She sent me a whole set (necklace, bracelet and earrings) in the coolest color combination that I think is perfect for summer and fall...anytime really! Here, let me show you...

Oranges, yellows, greens, black, gray, white = lovely! I mean, do you see it?! It's like summer fruits or leaves changing color in fall. That's what I see when I look at it and I love it! What's really cool about the necklace is that it has a double clasp, so you can wear it long or layered or doubled up. So, you can basically tailor it to fit the neckline of whatever you want to wear it with. That's so cool! She obviously has an eye for putting colors together. Check out the eye for color in these great pieces too...

She puts colors and textures of beads together in a stunning way and I am so excited to have a whole set of her amazing work for my very own! Not only did she send me those 3 great pieces from her collection, but she is offering one of my readers a $25.00 Gift Certificate to her shop. But wait!!! If the giveaway gets to 200 or more entries, she will up the gift certificate amount to $50.00!!!!!!! So, be sure to share this giveaway with as many people as you can! Please note that the requirements for entries into this giveaway are a little different from the ones I usually do, so be sure to follow the directions and complete all of the mandatory entries! a Rafflecopter giveaway Disclosure: I received the mentioned items for review purposes only and was not compensated in any other way.

Party By Nicole Review & Giveaway

Do you like to make a statement? Have you always wanted to and haven't been sure how to? I've found the perfect, sassy, fun way to do it! Check out the statement jewelry from Party By Nicole and you'll know what I'm talking about. In fact, I'm going to show you exactly what I mean! I am now the proud owner of one seriously awesome statement necklace from the lovely nicole. It's her Drops of Jupiter Necklace in Opaque Lavender. Just gorgeous!

Here's a picture of the lovely Nicole wearing this gorgeous creation...

Now, I'm not sure I rock this necklace quite like the beautiful Nicole does, but I like to think I wear it well. ;-) Even though it's big, it's really comfy to wear. It's made on a jersey cord, so it isn't a hard chain pulling against your neck and since you tie it in the back, you can make it the length that works best with whatever you're wearing it with. Also, even though the beads are large, they aren't heavy like they look like they would be. So, it not only looks awesome, but it's comfortable too! What more could you want? As if this isn't awesome enough, check out some of her other great pieces...

We're talkin' necklaces, bracelets, earrings...all the good stuff! I'm dreaming of some more of these beauties for myself, in fact. If you're dreaming of an awesome new piece of jewelry that will really make a statement, you will be super excited to know that Nicole is offering one of my readers one of her Drops of Jupiter Necklaces in Opaque Pink!!! Look at this gorgeous piece that could be adorning your neck...

Huazul Review & Giveaway

"Unique and colorful hand painted jewelry made with love by Mexican artisans" is what you will find at Huazul Etsy shop! I fell in love with the bright colors and beautiful hand painting on Marcela's jewelry as soon as I saw it and I was so excited when she said she would like to be featured on my blog! She let me choose from her Medium Copper Hoops in either pink, yellow or blue and I instantly was drawn to the beautiful blue hoops with the red bird and colorful flowers painted on them. How could I not be? The earrings are finished with an enamel coating that makes them shiny and extra vibrant in color. You can tell the care with which they are painted. They are such a lovely summer accessory and I was thrilled to have the opportunity to have a pair of my own. Look at the loveliness...

The size is perfect for me too. Not too big, but big enough to be easily noticeable, even when I wear my hair down and I love that. They are gorgeous! You can find this lovely hand painting on several styles of earrings and even rings and cuff bracelets in her shop. See...

I could not be happier with the quality and care that went into making these earrings and they make me smile every time I look at them. They are just so cheery and pretty. If you think so too, you will be very excited to know that one of my lucky readers will get to choose any item from their shop up to $25.00!

C. Marie Jewelry Review & Giveaway

I was looking for a little sparkle in my life and found just what I was looking for at C. Marie Jewelry! If you know anything about me, you know I love me some sparkles and jewelry. So chunky, sparkly jewelry really makes me happy! I had the extreme pleasure of receiving this gorgeous necklace to review. Do you see how sparkly and fun it is?! I haven't added anything pink to my accessory collection in a long time too, so this was the perfect addition!

This is by far the most sparkle I have adorning my tree of necklaces! The beads are so cool and look like crystals. It's just such a fun necklace. Crystal makes so many other cool pieces too, like these ones...

Lots of funky, chunky fun! Crystal is an absolute sweetheart too, so that just makes her shop even better if you ask me. I love to support someone who makes great handmade things and is a nice person too. When Crystal let me choose which necklace I would like, I had a really hard time deciding between the one I ultimately chose and another one that is just beyond fun too. So, when she asked me what I thought would be the best idea as a giveaway piece, I ended up choosing that necklace! So, here is what one lucky reader of my blog will receive...this Candy Coated Necklace!

Now, do you see why it was in the running for my choice of necklace to review?! How fun is a necklace that looks like it's made with candies?!

Torn To Pieces Review & Giveaway

Leather, studs, metal rings, stone beads...these are just some of the materials Missy uses when she makes her incredible cuffs at Torn To Pieces. She uses recycled pieces of leather to create the coolest cuffs I've seen. The hardware, beads and other materials she uses to decorate the cuffs are used in such a perfect way. You won't be able to resist the awesomeness of these great pieces! Missy was beyond awesome, and allowed me to choose the cuff I liked best. This was no easy task. I went back and forth between about 4 of them before finally deciding on this Brown Leather Cuff Bracelet with Turquoise Beads. One of the great features of her shop is that she will make your cuff sized perfectly for your wrist if you send her your wrist measurements, and that's exactly what she did for me! It fits perfectly! Not only does it fit perfectly, but it is made with great care and quality. It's sturdy, yet feels soft on my wrist. I am really impressed with it!

The particular style of cuff I chose, looks like a bunch of thinner leather bracelets, but it is actually one piece and connects in the back with a snap, like most of her cuffs do.

Is this not ridiculously cute?! I'm seriously loving it. Let me show you a few more of my favorites...

Look at this cool watch too!

As you can see, there is a style of cuff for everyone. From the girly girls to the not so girly girls. They have cuffs for men too! I was a little worried about how a cuff would look on me, seeing as I'm very short and have short arms. I was afraid a cuff might be too bulky on me, but I was so wrong. My cuff looks great and is a definite attention-grabber piece, as any of her cuffs would be. Other than cuffs, Missy also makes some awesome watches, necklaces and headpieces too! So, here comes the especially cool part...Missy is offering one of my readers the cuff of their choice! That's right, if you win, you will get to pick the cuff you like most (good luck with that decision)! What the heck are you waiting for?

Tombo Designs Review & Giveaway

Totally funky, totally unexpected, totally awesome...that is Tombo Designs. This girl obviously has a million ideas swirling around in that head of hers and I love every single one of them! When I came across her shop and started checking out all of her cool creations, I was in awe. So much unique coolness in one place? Can't get better than that! Even cooler...Shelly (the mastermind behind these cool pieces) decided to send me two surprise pieces that she didn't even have pictured in her shop at the time. One for me to keep and one for me to use as the giveaway piece. Now, that's fun! Just look at these beauties she sent me... This is a really cool, long necklace with a stone pendant and a cool green tassel. I have so many tops and dresses I can picture wearing this awesome necklace with. I love the length and the stone and tassel elements create such a fun and unique design.

This is a knit necklace made with different colors and thicknesses of yarn. It's so chunky and funky and would make a plain tee look rockin' or even just add a fun twist to a more conservative outfit. The color combination is so unexpected and fun!

As you can see, two completely different and yet equally awesome pieces! Let me show you some more of her creative genius in action...

Seriously, how much variety and awesomeness can you get?! And of course, this is just a small sampling of what Tombo Designs has to offer. So, you're probably wondering which piece I chose to keep for myself/which piece I chose as the giveaway. Well, after much consideration, I decided I couldn't part with the knit necklace. The color combo and chunky knit design...I can't resist. That means that one lucky reader of my blog will win that awesome Stone Pendant and Green Tassel Necklace!!!

I hate to let it go, but since I have to, I'm really excited for one of you! Be sure to get your entries in below for your chance to win!
