I recently had the chance to try out a bracelet and charm from the new Charm Story line from Things Remembered.

I picked the First Chapter Heart Charm Bracelet. I thought it would be a great starter piece to start my charm collection. I have always wanted a charm bracelet. But I’ve never gotten one no matter how many hints I have given.

I chose to engrave my heart charm with my husbands and I’s initials and then I had them put Forever on the back. Since our relationships was the real first chapter of our family I thought it would be perfect. I plan to order charms for each of the kids with their names and birth dates.

There were so many different charms I really had a hard time deciding what I wanted to put on my first charm bracelet. I think this could be a new Mother’s day tradition. To buy a new charm each year for mom. I know I would love it. My mom would too! She would especially love the photo charms to show off each of her adorable grand kids.

My Charm arrived in only a couple days after I ordered. It came in a little pouch. I had to put it on immediately. My wrists are tiny so it was a little big but I was able to pull it through another link on the chain and it fit perfectly.

The engraving was exactly what I wanted. It’s beautiful. I’ve been wearing it constantly. So if you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift…which is right around the corner.
Check out Things Remembered. I’m a Mom and I love mine.

I am an Oklahoma girl who moved to Texas as an adult. I have lived in various parts of the state, but now call my home East Texas. I enjoy gardening, decorating, crafting, spending time with my pets, blogging and keeping up with friends online. I have become somewhat of a saltwater fish aquarium enthusiast this past year. I also have two fish, Spot and Survivor, in the garden pond. I have two Yorkies, named Abigail Rose and Charlie Ross. There are also two cats in the mix; a Maine Coon cat that we found in a dumpster named Clyde. And then there’s Bonnie who hails from a used car lot. I am also a Meals On Wheels volunteer in my community. (more…)

This is my saltwater aquarium. It is a 90 gallon tank. A couple of weeks ago we added this to our home, after having a much smaller one for over a year.

This is our newest addition, Sunny, a Tang. He is quite beautiful and sociable. (more…)
