My Love Affair With Luxe Design Jewelry {Review & #Giveaway}

January 21, 2013 by fabfrugalmama

Luxe Design’s
“LOVE LOVE LOVE” necklace

I love jewelry.

In fact, I’m a jewelry addict. My stash consists of far too many pieces to be contained in a single (somewhat large, multi-level) jewelry box, and I’m always on the lookout for great new pieces to add to my collection.

While I like all my jewelry, there are a few pieces that I wear daily. We all have them… the go-to pieces that make us feel great or have special meaning. They are the “chosen ones”, so to speak. Mine have great sentimental value and I keep them close to my heart (literally and figuratively). For the last five years, I have worn personalized charms from British Columbia’s own Luxe Design Jewelry.

I was first introduced to Luxe Design Jewelry at the One of a Kind Show, where I
immediately fell in love with their handcrafted, customizable silver charms, earrings, bracelets and more.

As a new mother, I adored the idea of engraving my baby’s name and birth date on a charm I would wear every day — what a wonderful way to honour this beautiful little being that I had just brought into the world! And, as time went on, I accumulated more charms to signify milestones – the passing of my beloved grandmother (the angel charm) and
the birth of my second child (a rectangle name/birthdate charm), to name a few.


There are many reasons why I love Luxe Design Jewelry… because of the
care that goes into it, evident in the hand-stamped letters and numbers that
adorn each custom piece, and the elegant brushed finish that lasts, despite
daily wear.

These are quality pieces, and it shows.

That’s why I was over the moon when Joanne Hart, Luxe’s lovely owner and head designer, gave me the opportunity to do a review.

I’ve espoused my love of Luxe Design before, but the gorgeous creation that Joanne sent me is beyond anything I could have hoped for. When she first asked me what I was interested in reviewing, I ‘fessed up –
I have been coveting her new lowercase initial charms ever since they were introduced. My only conundrum? Picking out which
initial I wanted (mine, or one of my children’s?). So, after sending her
pictures of the pieces I currently own – and asking for some guidance because,
after all, she *is* the expert – she told me she would design something just
for me
. Ah, music to a jewelry-lover’s ears!

A few days later, the package arrived. Giddy with excitement, I opened
the box and was completely blown away…

 
The excitement is mounting… 
 
The reveal…

Not only did Joanne send me a gorgeous customized lowercase initial “L” charm (swoon!), but she was kind enough to include charms to signify all the important people in my life, too! The lovely curb chain is fine, yet strong, allowing the charms to really stand out. The pieces are stunning – the brushed finish is perfectly understated, yet chic.

Needless to say, I haven’t taken off my Luxe Design creation since the moment I opened the box. Being the sentimental (and fashionable!) girl that I am, this has already become a treasured piece… and will remain so for many years to come.

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I recommend you take a look at Luxe Design Jewelry online. Not only do they have an extensive selection of heart-themed pieces appropriate for Valentine’s Day, there are many suggestions for every occasion and price point (bridesmaids’ necklaces, gifts for pet lovers, baby bracelets, etc). And if you need assistance putting it all together, simply contact Joanne and she will be happy to help you create your special piece.

There’s More!

One lucky Fab Frugal Mama reader will win a $75 gift card to Luxe Design Jewelry! Many thanks to Joanne at Luxe Design for the generous giveaway. 🙂
