When I opened my mailbox at Christmastime, I was so excited to find an unexpected gift for ME!  Inside the envelope was this beautiful necklace and a card from Trisha:085

So cute, right?!?  I immediately got in touch with her to say THANKS and found out that the necklace was purchased from Kristen’s Custom Creations.  I love that the disc was not heavy or bulky as I generally like my necklaces to be understated, but eye catching enough that I always receive several compliments when I wear it!  I loved the necklace so much that I had to go online and see what else Kristen had to offer (I was not finished my Christmas shopping just yet!).  Check out the great selection of Mommy necklaces, Inspirational necklaces, and even pieces for him!  I have to say, one of my favorite pieces was the Fleur De Lis necklace (are you really THAT surprised?!).  kristenfleur

I started doing a little research on her site and found out that the sterling silver is 925 and Nickel free.  Kristen hand selects all materials and will only work with those that meet her high expectations.  The discs she uses are of a nice weight and are not paper thin.   All pieces are oxidized by hand through an eco-friendly method and she does not use a Sharpie marker to blacken the letters.

MomDot also used Kristen’s Custom Creations in their calendar picture for the Hot Blogger Calendar. We are long time fans!

And did you know that Kristen’s Custom Creations is giving a portion of proceed for the Hammered Love necklace to the American Heart Association?
