Gems of Hope
Some "Gems of Hope" designs not only raise awareness for certain causes, they also help raise funds for those causes.
Colors play an important role. I use sterling silver awareness ribbons
for all the awareness bracelets, but often, the color of the beads and
gems is the color commonly used in other colored awareness ribbons. For
instance, a Gems of Hope design that is pink is used for breast cancer
while a teal design is symbolic of Ovarian Cancer, Cervical Cancer, Lost
or Missing Children and Sexual Abuse. There are many ribbon colors, but
I prefer to use the color in the design of the bracelet itself so that
I can use a pure sterling awareness ribbon at the clasp.

Precious Paws
Now here's a design that's just plain FUN! And cute! There are several designs offered. Have your furbaby's name spelled out and even create a bracelet in their birthstone. Even better, how about creating a custom designed bracelet in a gemstone that LOOKS like your pet? For instance, Dalmatian Jasper is perfect for Dalmatians and other black and white spotted dogs & cats, Snow Jade would be fitting for your Bichon or white Persian, Onyx for you if you have a furbaby like my two solid black kitties, Angel & Taz! There are even striped and spotted black and white stones that look just like a Tuxie or striped and spotted multi colored stones that look like Calicos and Torties! There are OODLES of sterling charms in all breeds of cats and dogs and even bunnies and birds! I have some precious little "sitting kitty" charms and sweet little paw prints ready to go on your design! Some designs include a portion of the price going to the Humane Society of Canada, where we got our two little furbabies. You can not only decorate your wrist, ears and neck, but you could help save a life.
Miracles
Miracle bracelets celebrate life's most precious miracle, the creation
of life itself. Have your child or children's names spelled out in solid
sterling alphabet beads, paired with a mix of birthstone crystals, genuine
gemstones or your favorite color. These designs can be made into Mother's
Necklaces as well. Bracelets can be made in up to three strands. You can
have two names per strand if they are shorter names, but extra costs will
apply for the extra name. Is Grandma, Nana, Oma or Nanny feeling left out?
If so, Heritage designs below have them covered too!
Heritage
Heritage bracelets are for the proud Grandma or whatever she "likes"
to be called. You can have her name such as "Nana" spelled out
surrounded by the various colors of her grandchildren, whether few or many.
Or how about having her grandchildren's names spelled out in a bracelet
or necklace? (limited number of names apply! You will be quoted on this
custom order, simply email me for a quote) The variation of colors of birthstones
can be quite pretty and its very symbolic. Any Nana would love this!
Circle of Love
What better circle is there but the circle of life created, your miracle.
She's growing up, time for a bracelet of her own!
Her birthstones are featured in the center of the bracelet, surround by
her parents birthstones on the left and right. You can spell her name out
in alphabet beads or simply interspace pretty rose, butterfly and heart
beads throughout. There are several designs to choose from and the possibilities
are endless for creating more! An extender chain is included so that her
special bracelet will grow with her.
**Bracelets are not recommended for those under 5. Bracelets do have small parts and could pose a choking hazard should they ever be pulled apart. Bracelets should be worn with supervision. Heirloom bracelets for those under 5 can be created as a "memento". Please note that crystal beads can break. Bracelets should NEVER be given to a baby.
