Etsy Feature: Una Tia Especial

In a previous post I mentioned how much I love birthstones and how special they are to me. Wearing birthstone jewelry can be such a simple and classy way to honor yourself and your loved ones. I came across Elaine's Una Tia Especial shop this past March when I was searching for a special gift for one of my best friends. I was looking for a piece of jewelry to honor her two children and Elaine was so sweet and so great to work with. She made the perfect birthstone necklace for my friend and I was so pleased with how her necklace turned out that when Mother's Day approached one of Elaine's necklaces was at the top of my wish list.

My husband ordered one of Elaine's beautiful birthstone necklaces that included his, mine and our daughter's birthstones.

It is gorgeous! My husband's birthstone (Feburary-Amethyst) is on the top, mine (September-Sapphire) is on the bottom and our daughter's (May-Emerald) is in between the two.

I wear this necklace just about everyday and I have received so many compliments on it. One of the most special things about this necklace is that whenever I wear it my daughter will go through each birthstone saying, "This one is Daddy's. This one is Hadley's. And this one is Mommy's." LOVE!

What a simple yet classy and special way to honor your loved ones!

Ever since becoming a mom to my sweet Hadley the representation of birthstones has become very near and dear to me. I love honoring her and her birth month (May) as well as my husband's (February) and mine (September). I have some special birthstone jewelry (which I hope to showcase to you in another post) that I wear in honor of them both but I'm always on the hunt for other special and unique ways to display one or all of our birthstones.

I was thrilled when I came upon this special birthstone treat from Lisa's NouveauTique shop. These would make such sweet, sentimental gifts for any mom, grandmother, siblings, etc. You can display them on a shelf, bookcase, mantle or dresser. Lisa also had some great suggestions to use them as centerpieces or to give as housewarming or hostess gifts.

Aren't these stunning.....(all photos courtesy of NouveauTique. Just click on the pictures and they will direct you to her shop)

Check out this weeping willow design......LOVE!

Lisa can also make these functional as a business card holder....

as well as table number holders....

Please visit Lisa's NouveauTique shop--she has some great ideas on how to design them using your own jewelry as well as some great display ideas.

Thanks so much to Lisa for letting me feature your shop!

Happy Shopping, everyone!!
