Product Review Forget Me Not Jewelry

Posted by Bobbie Gould on August 3, 2010

I received the following product in exchange for writing a review. While I consider it a privilege to receive free products to review, my review is my honest opinion and thoughts of the product.

I received the Malorie Bracelet: I found this bracelet to be very comfortable and not able to slide off my wrist as other bracelets have. It is very pretty and I liked the fact that the attachment part to the jewelry on both sides did not fall off at ALL! 🙂 She made it very sturdy and is very pretty with blue and crystal beads. The blue was in all different shades which was very nice! 🙂 Here is her description of it: “This bracelet, almost identical to the Norah anklet, is made with turquoise seed beads, crackle glass beads and small pale blue beads. The beads are looped on silver eye pins and the bracelet closes with a darling rosebud toggle clasp.” I really liked this bracelet. And the other jewelry that she makes!

Necklace and Earring Gift Set

The following product was received in exchange for writing a review. While it is a privilege to receive free products to review, my review is my honest opinion and thoughts of the product.

My daughter was actually sent this gift set from Cinderella’s Jewelry called, Pearls and Glitter in exchange for a review. Since I am the one with pierced ears, I thought I would also give Cinderlla’s Jewelry some exposure by writing a review. This set is very nice and priced just right; only $18.00. It would make a wonderfully affordable gift for daughter, mom or grandma. But it is a pierced earring and necklace set. This particular set is sold out but Cinderlla’s Jewelry has other styles available. Custom orders are also available upon request, so please contact the owner for details.

The earrings did not make my ears sore and are made with little posts. They are very comfortable to wear. The necklace looks elegant and wears well.

Pearls and Glitter (I used most of her description with my opinion sprinkled in since she describes it to a “t”)

This elegant pendant is a splash of light purples/ pinks, light sprinkled glitter throughout, with is a cluster of diamond- like gems in the center as the “pollen”, strung on a 16 inch strand of natural fresh water pearls and a few silver rhinestone spacers.

The clasp is different from what we’ve seen before, but I find it much easier to clasp and unclasp than the usual clasps on necklaces. Each piece is well made.

Wood Bracelets from five ACCESSORIES

I received these products in exchange for some work that I did for someone.

Well, this is long overdue review, as I have had these bracelets for awhile now. I was suppose to write this up at about the same time as the recycled picture frame. Regardless, I am doing it now, right?

I like jewelry, but tend to like it in small portions and sizes. For instance, when I was in my teens or early twenties my childless aunt had all of my sisters and female cousins look at her jewelry to tell her what we wanted upon her death (she’s still alive today), I chose my grandmother’s wedding band. My aunt was shocked and asked me if I wanted her huge diamond cluster instead. I told her no that my grandmother’s ring had more meaning to me and the huge diamond just wasn’t me.

So this brings me to my review, the triangular bracelet is bulkier than I would normally wear, but surprisingly it doesn’t feel as bulky as it looks. But it still takes some getting use to when I am use to small chain or bead bracelets. However, it has a comfortable fit and is appealing to the eye. It is made out of solid wood with elastic.

Wood Bracelet

The flowered bracelet has been a favorite of mine since I first learned of five ACCESSORIES, and I actually gave my mother-in-law one for her birthday. She loves blue. I love flowers and this definitely attracted my eye. It has a nice loose fit, is very pretty and is my favorite of the two.

Both are well made and will be a great accessory for nearly any casual outfit.
