Bridesmaids Bracelets

Winter Weddings will be back next week, but since it's so mild outside here in Atlanta, I'll bend your ear a little more about Lauren and Todd's wedding! I picked up these SUPER pink glass pearls this week and was hoping to use them for a Phi Mu bracelet for my Lemongrass Boutique store, but when they got here the pink was juuust a little off and then it hit me-- put a little charm on there and make them in to bridesmaids bracelets!

OK, so AO Designs isn't carrying Rings per se, but she does have some amazing jewelry that are perfect not only for the woman building her family by addition, but by building her family through combination! I just picked up this beautiful garnet necklace (I'm in love with my birthstone, what of it?) and some earrings as well.

I'm having the hearts stamped with my initial and my husband's, and husbands to be take note-- this would be a terribly sweet present for your wife to be!

There are a few beautiful necklaces that would be perfect bridesmaids gifts for a spring wedding; a friend of mine picked the eggs in a nest necklace in pistachio-- one for each child she has running around the house! The stylish bridesmaid would no doubt be pleased as punch to have one of these delicate little items hanging around her neck. 

There are beautiful necklaces, bracelets, and initial pieces that would be perfect for the bridesmaid, flower girl, cat of honor, and mothers of brides/grooms alike! I know my mother in law loves family pieces, and if you picked one up of these Small Circles necklaces, you can contact Angela for more discs as your family grows.

Head on over to see the other beautiful pieces she has for sale-- you won't be sorry, and you may just end up as addicted as I am!

Ring a Ding Ding (Pt. 1)

Many people have trouble finding an affordable wedding set, and perhaps moreso with mens rings than with women's. My husband and I ended up buying dummy rings from Target not only because we were dirt poor, but also because we couldn't find anything we honestly liked!

To be up front, I am obsessed with the online coupon fad-- the Groupons, Half off Depots, and ScoutMobs make my life complete! My most recent find is Heartsy, which does the same thing for Etsy shop owners. It. Is. Brilliant! My second one, which happened by a fortuitous chance, is for June Designs. I was so excited to find an affordable silver ring to add to the wedding set my husband and I are slowly building!

Joelle's's designs are a mix of classic, simple, and earthy-- you get everything from simple bands in every metal imaginable to rings with adorable items perched on top, and she even works with stones as well. (There aren't any in her shop at the moment, but she IS working on a custom piece involving diamonds) 

I know not all of us are game for a simpler ring, but for those of us who are these are some really excellent options--for those of us who aren't, just send Joelle a message and see what she can work up for you. Anyone who has rose gold at their disposal has to have something amazing up their sleeve!
