Crackberry Friday: Birthday Gift from P


I apologize for the blurriness of the image but my Crackberry skillz were lacking today. I tried like a dozen times to get the right lighting.
This necklace was P's birthday present to me. I picked it out at klacustomcreations on Etsy. Kristen is also a fellow bloggy friend at La Dolce Vita and I love her jewelry. I also asked her to create a piece with my blog name and I'll post that as well.
The thing I love about this necklace is it is exactly my style, a little funky, a little preppy. I have been wearing it non-stop since I got it in the mail. I was SOOO excited when I got home and it was waiting for me. :) You know what else is cool? If you have an Amazon wish list, they now have a button you can add to your links bar and you can add anything from any store or site to your wish list. It is so easy (unless you are P) and I love the fact that using it helps support independent creative people. :)
Kristen has many different quotes and little charms that can be added to your piece. She also supports some great organizations with donations from her pieces of her artwork. They all make wonderful gifts too. Please take a gander at her Etsy store.

I LOVE that. I don't wear any jewelry, not even a wedding ring, but I REALLY like that.
Great Birthday idea for my daughter too.
I'll go look her up on Etsy right now!!

I got one of those necklaces, from that etsy store. Are you stalking me? ;)

Mine has just one charm with my first initial, and a mother of pearl drop.

Simple in a really pretty way.

I love the whole idea of the Amazon wish list! I wish everyone i knew had one set up. I love to buy presents for people, but i like to get something they really want. I wish i were creative when it comes to gift giving, but i'm not.

That is so pretty! I love this style of necklace and would like to have one made with my daughter's name and birthday on it.

I HEART Etsy!

'Unless you are P' Ha ha, that was a very funny aside in this post! Poor old P!
