Belly Charms Review and Giveaway Ends 5/12

I must tell you I was beyond excited when I was told they would like for me to review one of their bracelets from Belly Charms.  I was in shock, little ol' me can review one of their beautiful products. 

I had to get to know this mom and find out where the neat name came from.  Sonya began her business when her second son was born.  During her first pregnancy she had her belly button pierced and had to remove it and of course this closed the piercing up. (Sounds like myself, because with my second pregnancy, I had my belly button pierced and had to have it taken out, and was really bummed because it closed up.  I just didn't get it pierced again.)  However, Sonya did get her belly button repierced and then found out she was pregnant again. An ultrasound tech told her that there were maternity belly rings, but they were just hard to find. Well she went on a search and finally found one. She wore it through her entire pregnancy and right into the delivery room. The nurses all loved it. After her son was born, she went back to the "regular" steel belly button rings but just did not like them anymore. So she got out the maternity belly ring, cut the PTFE bar to a much shorter length, rethreaded the ball, and took off the "It's a Boy" charm and replaced it with a candy cane......that is when Belly Charms began.

Belly Charms is not just about belly button products, although they are super cute.  How would I have loved when I was pregnant to wear a belly button ring that said its a girl. OMG, that would have been super hot, right?  My husband would have said, "NOT SO MUCH!" But I would have been all about it. 

Belly Charms like I said is not just about belly button products, but she makes absolutely gorgeous bracelets, anklets, toe rings, flip flops and I even saw a Tie Dyed Maternity Shirt.

Sonya did let me review any bracelet that I was interested in and I saw the one above (except for not in my children's names) and fell in love!  Seriously I fell in love. She sent me a Swarovski Crystal Multi Strand Birthstone Mother's Bracelet.   When I sent her the information, I had to send her my children's names, their birth months (for the birthstone colors) and strand size information.

Sonya finished and sent me a picture, and my mouth dropped.  One of the girls that I work with, I immediately ran over to show her, because I was so much in awe.

When I received it, I was absolutely amazed.  Wait, I don't even know if those are the words I can say for this bracelet.  I still couldn't believe that this gorgeous bracelet was in my hands and that I owned this bracelet.  It was beyond gorgeous, the girl's birthstone colors went together so well, that it just...it just...I don't know.  I was just so over the top from this beautiful bracelet. The name is done with 5.6 mm sterling silver alphabet beads. Each alphabet bead is separated with a 5mm Swarovski Crystal AB Bicone Bead. This makes the letters fit together smoothly. The 6mm Swarovski round and bicone crystals give the bracelet some gorgeous sparkle.  And boy does this bracelet sparkle!

Picture do not do this bracelet justice. I immediately put this bracelet off and started to show everyone.  I couldn't hide my excited about showing off my kids.  I love showing off my kids and what better way to show them off with something as beautiful as this.

Tell me this isn't gorgeous?
