As I was going through my jewelry box today, one piece of jewelry caught my immediate attention.  It was a beaded rope and if memory serves me correctly, it was made by Avon.  This piece of jewelry holds special sentiment to me because my dear Grandmother gave it to me years ago when I was in college as a Christmas gift. 

My Grandmother lived on a farm and other than her wedding band she rarely wore jewelry in her day-to-day routine.  However, when she went somewhere special she would wear a piece of jewelry such as a pin.   My sister has an antique jewelry pin that my Grandmother gave her as a wedding gift when she married.  It was very dear to my Grandmother's heart because her Father gave it to her for her 16th birthday.  Although the piece of jewelry is only costume, it is a family heirloom that is priceless. 

Jewelry given to us as gifts frequently has sentimentality attached to it.  Most of us can recall precisely who gave us the gift of jewelry, as well as the occasion that it was given.  Whether we occasionally wear the piece or wear it on a regular basis, the love and sentimentality we have for the piece of jewelry is the same. 

The gift of jewelry is a wonderful gift for the holidays.  Whether you're giving jewelry as a gift to your mom, sister, spouse, or a friend, it will be a gift that will be treasured and loved. 

Enjoy your day!  

Cheers,
