Nelle & Lizzy - Awesome for Mother's Day!

Mother's Day is sneaking up on us (May 8th) and while I am eagerly coming up with a few wishlist items to drop hints about - I'm also searching for the perfect items for my mom & mother-in-law. It is surprisingly challenging for me to come up with fresh ideas each year even though I'm surrounded by constant new product finds. It's just so tricky to find something that is really special. Nelle & Lizzy is filled with that something special! I have not only found perfect gifts for the moms in my life and a few items for me to lust over, but I have also found some ideas for Father's Day too! They have an amazingly unique selection of beautiful personalized jewelry.
I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to review my top wishlist item from Nelle & Lizzy. I love their Triple Name Ring. You can get this gorgeous ring in single and double form as well. I am always looking for a ring that I can wear on the same hand as my wedding ring that works well with it. I want something simple but something meaningful. This is the first ring I have come across that I truly loved and went perfect with my wedding ring. It has all of my children's names on it, even the little guy on the way (so you can make a pretty strong guess as to what name he will have). I like the way the three bands are intertwined because not only is symbolic but it also keeps me from misplacing one of them. I also like that the rings are constantly changing positions so the name getting the most facetime is always changing. I was impressed with the quality, the cute packaging, and the overall appearance of the ring. I constantly get complicated and asked where I got my ring. These one-of-a-kind stamped rings are perfect for any parent or grandparent. However, if rings aren't your cup of tea - Nelle & Lizzy also offers a great selection of necklaces and bracelets (I LOVE the charm bracelet).

Simply Stated: Nelle & Lizzy offers quality products that are elegantly designed. I love their selection and would strongly recommend them for gifts and a little mommy pampering!

Special thanks to Nelle & Lizzy for providing a sample for review purposes.

A cupcake I can wear!

I am so obsessed with this sweet cupcake ring. I really like the simple elegance of the design. It looks classic and far from juvenile. Creating jewelry with baked goods as your muse does not always end up with a polished product but this ring is dainty, stylish, and perfectly embraces the concept of less is more. PNUT Jewelry's Cupcake Ring not only comes in the sterling silver but you can also step up your game to 18k white or yellow gold or you can get it with Sapphire sprinkles! It even comes with diamonds for those of us with larger penny banks or husbands trying to escape the dog house. Although the Cupcake Ring is my favorite, PNUT Jewelry has tons of beautiful jewelry to offer. The collection is not just rings, you'll also find charms, necklaces, bracelets, and more.

Fatally Delicious Jewelry

How insanely adorable is the Royal Cupcake Necklace from Fatally Feminine Designs? I think that I am in love with this combination of bling and yum! This necklace is super cute and is a great way to make a boring outfit much more fun. The cupcakes are handmade and use vintage swarovski rhinestones to take sprinkles to the next level. Throw in the gold charm and a cherry on top - you have cupcake perfection. This 1 inch cupcake is the perfect gift for any birthday gal - what about actually using it to top a cupcake? That would make a gift too cute to ever forget! When you order your royal cupcake - you can actual choose to get it in the form of a necklace or earrings. You can even choose to get the full set! Now the hardest part is deciding on the frosting....I'm a vanilla girl myself but the strawberry frosting seems to be teasing me with it's girly pink color!

Scrumptious Doodle has a great collection of tantalizing charms, bracelets, even magnets. You'll discover pancakes, doughnuts, ice cream, pie, poptarts, cheeseburgers, even tacos.

No one seemed surprised to see me sporting a cupcake bracelet on my wrist but I was shocked to hear how many compliments I got on it. I think it's the cutest thing but I tend to become blinded by anything cupcake. I just can't walk away....I must add it to my cupcake collection. The thing that really drew me to InsaneJellyFish Designs' Cupcake Bracelet was the delightfully dainty design. I love the simplicity of the bracelet. It is far from overboard and clearly embraces the concept of less is more. The tiny cupcake charm is the perfect accompaniment to the id style bracelet and the simple pink bead gives it just the right accent. At the insanely low price of $20 - I'm pretty sure everyone should have one! It is the perfect gift for a birthday girl and I also love the idea of buying one for a child as well.

Channel your inner Carrie

I am a huge Sex & the City fan! Carrie has always been my favorite and I have been coveting her name necklace for quite a while. You can get your own name necklace or give one to a friend at My Name Necklace. They have a huge variety of fonts and styles. I love that you get to customize even the length of the chain! They have a child sized chain as well, so you can get your little princess one too. I know that all of my friends would be thrilled to get one of these sterling silver necklaces (you can also get some in 18k gold-plated sterling silver)! You could create one with their nickname or a word that really describes them. Try using a one-worded inside joke that only your best friend would understand. There are so many possibilities! It's easy to create a memorable and meaningful gift.
  • Wrap it up: If this is for a fellow SATC fan - try giving their name necklace with a season of SATC on DVD

Calendar Charms that celebrate your special day

Not Just Any Old Day has the perfect item to commemorate that special day in your life. Whether it be your wedding day, your child's birthday, even your birthday. Everyone has a special day in there life and this is the perfect way to highlight it. I love the beautiful Calendar Charm Necklaces. The antique feel of the skeleton style key appeals to me from the first glance. You can put the swarovski crystal of your choosing on the date that matters to you. The end result is a stunning piece of jewelry that you will treasure. I was lucky enough to have one created for the special moments in my life - all of which took place in August. My wedding and the birth of both my sons were all in August. They were able to put 3 swarovski cystals on my calendar charm to show each date! I get so many compliments and questions about this one of a kind necklace. I think it is the perfect gift for any mother or grandmother. It would also make a touching present for a new bride. I am beyond impressed with the craftsmanship and quality of the necklace. It is truly beautiful. You can get yours in sterling silver or if you want to go all the way, you can purchase one in 14k gold with a diamond!! You can also get calendar charm bracelets, cuffs, even key rings!

Your Inner Circle

I have raved about Tiny Token Designs before and I such a fan of their Circle of Names Necklace. I got the honor of having one made with my favorite names and I was thrilled with the way it turned out. The beauty of this design is the simplicity. The sterling silver disc and chain will go with pretty much anything. Plus you know that no other person has one just like yours. Even if they should have the same inner circle of names because of the hand stamping of individually crafted tools - no two necklaces are the same. I love this necklace for moms, grandmothers, and I think it could be a much better version of a best friends necklace. Wouldn't it be cute if your daughter had one made for her and her other two musketeers? It would definitely be a unique holiday gift!

Heart & Stone Jewelry

The jewelry from Heart & Stone will instantly become a treasured piece. Their Custom Charm Necklaces are so easy to personalize exactly to your tastes. Moms & Grandmas are so proud of the offspring and these necklaces are such an elegant way to keep them close to your heart. You can customize every last detail from the font to the shape of each charm. I was extremely impressed with the high quality of the necklace. Almost every piece of jewelry I wear ends up destroyed by my youngest child. He grabs on a pulls - usually snapping the chain but sometimes just ripping the charms off. This beauty is durable. I loved the unique way the stone was attached. It seems pretty impossible to lose. I love that you can continue to add to your necklace. You can order as many recycled silver charms as you need. So when I get to add another little joy to our family - they won't get left out of my necklace. It's bad enough it took me over a year to change out photos to include our youngest. This would be a really sweet gift for any mom, so I hope you Dad's are listening!! How cute would it be for the whole family to go in together to create a necklace with charms for all the grand babies? The more I look at the options from Heart & Stone Jewelry the more inspired I become and I truly love the ability to create a necklace that is one of a kind.

Once personalized these are all sure to be a big hit with the lucky recipient.

Your Every Color

Your Every Color has a huge selection of options when it comes to their adorable fabric covered button earrings. It might take you some time to decide on your favorites. Right now if you buy 3 pairs of their new fall styles and you get the 4th pair free. I'm thinking this might be the perfect spot to stock up on gifts for friends or your kid's teachers. In addition to their darling button earrings they also have a wide range of affordable jewelry to choose from. I am currently lusting over the Rosalee Black Clay Rose Earrings!

  • Wrap it up: Perfect size for a stocking or try putting these inside one of those clear plastic ornament balls you can get at craft stores. Fill it with the earrings and perhaps some holiday treats or pretty confetti.
  • Price Tag: $5.95 (but you get 4 for the price of 3, so it's really even less than that!!)

Laurel Denise

Beautiful glass pieces featuring hand drawn illustrations and gorgeous script are the signature of designer Laurel Smith. Her lovely collection is called Laurel Denise and if you haven't heard about her yet....it is only a matter of time. I adore her elegant silhouette designs. Her jewelry is the perfect addition to any outfit and due to the understated beauty of her pieces - they go with anything from casual to ultra fancy. She not only has a captivating collection of necklaces but you'll also discover she has delightful stationary to offer as well. I saw the Reflection necklace and was overwhelmed by the classy and dainty design. Her jewelry has somehow managed to combine elegance with modern and I am loving it! Another plus to buying from Laurel Denise - her prices are very reasonable!

Sonny & Reed make teething fierce

When you have a little one you know that everything goes into the mouth. When you have a little one who is teething - then EVERYTHING goes into their mouth....seriously, everything. My son might be a picky eater at mealtime but when it comes to something to press against his gums - there is no item ignored. I've caught him trying to wrap his mouth around furniture, toys, shoes, remotes, train tables, you get the idea. He really likes to eat my jewelry and it worries me for two reasons: one being that he tends to break my pretty necklaces and two that I am scared when he breaks the necklace he might choke on the charm. There is a point to my rambling....Sonny & Reed have a teething necklace that I would wear even if my baby didn't LOVE to chew on it. It's really stylish and it also does one amazing job of giving baby something to chew on. This unique necklace has little nubbs on each bead that feel really soothing to aching gums. It's also really safe for them to chew on. It's not only made with FDA approved and non-toxic material but it has also been designed in a size that cannot pass through your child's choke tube. So even if your little Hercules gives it a very hearty tug you don't have to worry about him choking. Sonny & Reed's chic teething necklace is available in black, clear, and crystal blue. You can purchase yours online from the Sonny & Reed website. One word of advice - you might want to get two because my little one keeps running off with mine and wants to wear it himself. Either way - he's happy and my household items are no longer working part time as chew toys. You can save 10% off your order by entering the code nwb10 at the checkout line and take advantage of their free shipping too!Best Blogger Tips

Birth Designs

Mommy jewelry is becoming pretty popular and I for one am a huge fan! We worked hard to squeeze those little ones out and we work even harder to raise them. I certainly like having a piece of jewelry that represents them wherever I am. The jewelry options from Birth Designs are simply lovely. I am a huge fan of the Stamped Sterling Cuff Bracelet. You get to personalize it to your tastes from the finish, the font, and even down to the little designs next to your words. I like having the ability to choose from options that ensure the piece is not only my taste but also one of a kind. I love the idea of getting one of these bracelets each time you welcome another child into your family. They not only look beautiful with just one but they layer extremely well. All of the creations from Birth Designs are made by hand, one by one! You can browse the unique selection of jewelry including some beautiful pieces for children and even some Twilight inspired options (yes- I too am obsessed!) at Birth Designs online store.Best Blogger Tips

Miss Misa

I don't own a lot of jewelry. I am pretty picky about the stuff I buy. It not only has to fit in my budget but it has to fit my style. Miss Misa has a wonderful collection of jewelry ranging from $15 to $105. The vast majority of her collections fall in the $35 bracket and that is a price my wallet can handle. I love how Miss Misa makes it so that I don't have to sacrifice style or uniqueness to find something I can afford. My current favorite is the Saint Necklace (Shown to your left). I love the layered affect and that it managed to combine gold & silver seamlessly. Unlike most layered necklaces it uses two different chains - one figuro and one curb chain - the result makes it look like you combined to separate necklaces. It looks like you accidentally achieved effortless style! The Mother Mary & St. Madeline charm give it an old fashioned appeal, like your grandmother's charm bracelet. It feels vintage, unique, special and right now it's on sale for only $14.90. Miss Misa has some fabulous statement rings, necklaces, and even a few bracelets & earrings. Check out the stylish options from Miss Misa and get something that looks one of a kind.Best Blogger Tips

Dr. Bloom's Chewable Jewels

My son loves to chew on anything. I mean anything, from my hair to my shirt, necklace, purse, the wall, socks, toys, whatever. If he can get any part of it into his mouth he will chew on it and love it. Unfortunately, this addiction to chewing has sent lots of my jewelry into dire need of repair because he rips it apart. Plus I always worry if something could come unhinged and choke him. I am a huge fan of Dr. Bloom's Chewable Jewels! Her unique line of jewelry is the original teething jewelry and it definitely gets the job done. All of her creations are made especially for your baby's mouth. They are BPA, PVC, Phthalate, latex, and lead free. They are also waterproof, dishwasher safe, & made with FDA approved materials, I feel very safe letting Dr. Bloom's Chewable Jewels go into my child's mouth! It even meets the dental requirements for a little one because it was actually created by a dentist & a team of moms. You can choose from bracelets, necklaces, and keychains in an assortment of colors. Now when your child is chewing on your jewelry you can rest easy. Dr. Bloom's Chewable Jewels combine style, functionality, and baby teething/entertainment al into one safe & stylish package.

Janna Conner


Alright ladies I have found the gift pick for you. The gold plated Initial Pendant from Janna Conner is beautiful. It has a delicate 14K goldfill ballchain that drapes timelessly around your neck. The gold plated initial pendant looks so classy with any outfit. It can work with dresses or it can add some style to a solid tee & jeans. The picture hardly does this necklace justice because it is so well crafted and dainty. It feels really light around your nape and it looks expensive (fortunately it is not).

When I have this hand crafted necklace on I get nothing but compliments and I feel really confident. It is difficult to find well made jewelry that exudes simple elegance but doesn't break the bank at the same time. Janna Conner has skillfully created a piece that feels stylish but lasting, unlike a trend that will be over next week. Her designs have been seen on celebrities like Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton, Debra Messing, even Madonna, and I am just listing a few.

This is a gift that would be great for best friends, wives, mothers, daughter, and grandmothers. I love the idea of giving a new mother the initial of her new little baby as a holiday gift! If you take a moment to visit Janna Conner's shop I know that you will find at least one piece of jewelry you can't be without. She not only makes gorgeous necklaces but also bracelets, rings, & earrings.Best Blogger Tips
