Great Mother's Day Gift Idea: The Vintage Pearl {Review & Giveaway}

I am so excited to bring you another giveaway from The Vintage Pearl! Some of you may remember that one of the very first product reviews I posted on this blog was a review of my Dainty Drops Necklace from The Vintage Pearl. I still wear it all the time, and love it as much as the day I wrote that review.

Just in case you aren't familiar with The Vintage Pearl, let me tell you a little bit about this great company. The Vintage Pearl was started in 2007, when a stay at home mom started making jewelry. It has since grown into a much larger company and now even has a retail store.

The Vintage Pearl creates unique and meaningful handstamped jewelry and keepsakes. Each piece is handcrafted from start to finish with care in our studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We use raw sterling silver, freshwater pearls and birthstone crystals in our creations.

Every unique piece I have seen from The Vintage Pearl has been absolutely beautiful. Their necklaces, bracelets, keychains, leather cuffs, earrings, dog tags, and even baby spoons make great gifts for everyone!

Speaking of gifts, we all know that Mother's Day is quickly approaching. Even though I am now a mother, to me, Mother's Day is still all about my mom. I let her know all the time how much I appreciate everything she does for me, but this is the one day to really make all about her! When I had the opportunity to work with The Vintage Pearl again, I knew I wanted to find a beautiful handstamped keepsake just for her.

There are so many pieces to choose from that I really had a hard time selecting one. I finally decided on the Layered Circle Of Love. This piece comes with two circles, one just bigger than the other, with your choice of writing on each circle. You can also add a pearl, birthstone or charm to the middle. On the outer circle I wanted something written about the never ending love that my mom has for my children, and with the help of some friends, we came up with "mama's love is eternal". (The kids call her "mama".) I had my kids' names written on the inner circle.

The ordering process was easy, and I received my necklace in just a few days. It is absolutely perfect! It was packaged nicely in a small mesh bag, and even came with a cleaning cloth.

These pictures don't really do it justice at all, but you can see from this picture how nice it looks. It is a simple piece, but still beautiful at the same time!

By posting this review, I am obviously ruining the Mother's Day surprise, but I know my mom is going to love this necklace! Happy Mother's Day, mom! Just like my Dainty Drops Necklace is to me, it will be a constant reminder to her of her two grandchildren that she loves so much!

If you are looking for a unique gift for your mother for Mother's Day, or a beautiful, custom handstamped piece for yourself, I highly recommend the Vintage Pearl! There are so many great pieces to choose from. A few of my other favorites are the Bitty Blossoms, Chunky Love Necklace and Vintage Baby Feet With Names.

Regardless of which piece you choose, you will be getting a beautiful, unique keepsake, handstamped just for you. The customer service at The Vintage Pearl is awesome, and everyone I have ever worked with has been absolutely wonderful.
