Getting A New Necklace

I just purchased one of the most beautiful necklaces I’ve seen in some time.  Ok, so this may be just my opinion, but check it out to see for yourself.

I’ve enjoyed shopping on Etsy for a couple of years now.  I love people’s creativity and love handmade things (they are truly one-of-a-kind).

I came across Moon Over Maize’s shop the other day and fell in love with a necklace she makes.  It’s a “Pregnancy Curves Necklace”.  Until I read the description, I probably wouldn’t have noticed that it was the silhouette of a pregnant woman.  The center circle represents a woman’s uterus and the beads are the birthstones of her children.

While I have no clue when my child will arrive (since I’m due November 3rd), Monica (the creator of this amazing necklace) is going to give me two birthstones (one for October….in case I go early, and one for November).  I can then remove the one that doesn’t apply.  How smart is that (her idea, not mine)?  What’s even more cool is that when you have more children, you can just email her and she’ll send you the birthstone of your next child to add to your necklace…..FREE.  You can’t beat that.

What a beautiful memory that’s simple, yet elegant and goes with everything.
