Handmade, One-of-a-Kind Jewelry! jaC Jewelry Review and Giveaway
Friday, February 20, 2009 Posted by Jolly Mom
I really don't know of any woman that doesn't love jewelry and I am definitely not an exception. If you're anything like me, you are in for a real treat today because today's review and giveaway combines two things I love: jewelry and handmade!I was recently given the awesome opportunity to review a jewelry shop called jaC Jewelry and ladies, you are going to love this store! jaC Jewelry is owned and operated by Janna who is really a true artist in every sense of the word. Not only does she handmake every beautiful creation at jaC Jewelry, but she is also an oil painter and cardmaker!
I received the Little Mermaid earrings pictured on the right to review and they are truly exquisite. The beading is impeccably done and the earrings themselves are so versatile. They can easily be worn with a pair of jeans on a casual day or they can be worn for an evening out. You know what I love the most about these earrings? I am the only one who has a pair! That's because Janna never repeats a design-she guarantees it. That means that every piece is truly one-of-a-kind!jaC Jewelry really has something for every type of woman and every occasion. If you can't find what you're looking for, that's ok-just let Janna know and she will create it for you. Janna even does custom bridal jewelry! The designs are all classic and elegant while still remaining modern. Just check out some of Janna's creations below:
Because Janna feels very strongly that handmade shouldn't equal expensive, jaC Jewelry is also extremely affordable. She will even pass the savings on to the customer when she is able to buy her supplies cheaper than usual. Gotta love that! Gift wrapping and a personalized message card is always fee so if you're buying a gift, jaC Jewelry is definitely the place to shop.
Want It: You can find jaC Jewelry online at http://www.jacjewelry.net and at Etsy or follow Janna on her blog.
Win It! Janna of jaC Jewelry has generously offered to give the Mocha Chocolate Earrings pictured below to one very lucky Jolly Mom reader!
This giveaway has ended. Congratulations to the winner, Cindy B. of Montana ! Winner has been emailed and has 48 hours to contact me.

Oh my goodness, I LOVE IT. I love it all. I added the shop to my favorite etsy sellers, so I can keep drooling. I guess what I'd like to see more of is copper work. I mostly love silver, but I've been flirting with copper lately.
