Birth Designs

April 11th, 2008

I’ve been looking for the last year for a necklace or other jewelry piece to commemorate Daphne’s birth. No cheesy birthstone babies or little shoes on a necklace. Not quite my style. I hinted and hinted to Chris to get me something (James Avery baby charm for my charm bracelet, hint, hint) but that didn’t work. But that’s ok, because he got Daphne a really nice sapphire birth stone charm (Because her due date was 9.18, who knew she’d come in August?  It can be her “something blue” for her wedding since her birth stone is a peridot.). He went to the jeweler and designed it himself. I was impressed!!

So I think I’m going to buy myself something nice for mother’s day. Today I stumbled upon these necklaces from Etsy seller Birth Designs. Sterling silver and very reasonably priced:

Cute. I think I’d put Daphne Veronica on this. The flower beads are optional, you have a choice between stones and sterling silver beads.

I like this one too. Simple, and I could wear it with anything.

Cute, but not sure about the crystal moon.

Any opinions? They have several other cute designs in their shop. Let me know if you’ve seen cute mom jewelry anywhere else.

    I am not a big fan of the first one, but I like the second one alot. I agree with you about the third one and the crystal moon. Although now I think about it, does the last two remind you of dog tags?

    I think I’d like the first better if it didn’t have flower beads. I did think about the dogtag thing. I might ask for a custom necklace with a different shape. We’ll see.

    Number 2 gets my vote, out of the three choices. Number 1 has a different kind of look, I could do it, but I wouldn’t want to use the flower beads.
