Gifts for the Jewelry Lover
Sparkly jewelry gifts for moms who are big on the bling
Just like fashionista moms, jewelry lovers know that a good outfit is all about the accessories. If your mom is a bit of a magpie and loves anything that’s got some sparkle, why not contribute to her jewelry collection this Mother’s Day? The great thing about jewelry gifts is that no mom can have too many accessories. Need inspiration? Take a peek in Mom’s collection to see whether she prefers dangly earrings or studs, if she’s into chokers or drop necklaces and if she likes chunky cuffs or thin chains for her wrists. Once you know your mom’s jewelry style, Mother’s Day gift shopping will be a breeze!
Gifts up to $20
- Amber jewelry - Brighten up Mom’s collection with a piece of amber jewelry. Made from petrified tree resin, amber comes in different shades of yellow and green. Some pieces of amber contain little particles of foliage, which make it more valuable.
- Fair trade jewelry - Now Mom can wear something stylish while contributing to a good cause. Fair trade jewelry is made by independent artists in developing nations. These unique, handcrafted pieces are usually sold online at prices that adequately compensate the artist based on his or her skill and the craftsmanship of the work. These are great Mother’s Day gifts for green moms too.
Gifts up to $50
- Tiered necklaces - One of the hottest trends in jewelry is tiered necklaces. Multiple strands of chain, beads or pearls, each a different length, are attached to one clasp so the necklace hangs in tiers. Look for designs made from colorful glass beads or even “invisible” necklaces that are strung on clear filament lines.
- Tarnish-resistant jewelry boxes - Mom’s favorite pieces of jewelry will last a lifetime if they’re properly stored. These boxes are lined with special materials that keep metals shiny and protect precious stones. Plus the added storage space means Mom has room to increase her collection!
- Generations pearl necklace - Generations necklaces string together three separate pearls or beads to represent a child, mother and grandmother. Pearl designs are elegantly stunning, but birthstones look just as beautiful and are more personal.
Gifts up to $100
- Locket - A classic Mother’s Day gift, a beautiful locket on a simple chain will melt Mom’s heart. Don’t forget to include a picture of the family and add an engraving to the back.
- Mother’s rings - Mom can keep the family close all day long when she’s wearing her Mother’s Ring. Designed to incorporate the family’s birthstones, these jewelry gifts are very personal and come in a variety of styles. Plan to order early as the ring will take time to create.
Gifts up to $200
- Watch - Watches aren’t just a functional timepiece, they’re an accessory too! Does Mom have a slender, delicate watch to wear to formal parties? Could she use a funky design to complement her stylish wardrobe? Would a watch with multiple functions suit her busy lifestyle? Watches come in designs to fit any wearer. Think about the watches she already has and then try to fill the gap in her collection.
- Diamonds - They certainly are a mom’s best friend! Whether you’re choosing a pair of sparkly studs or a simple pendant, Mom’s eyes are sure to light up when she sees the fire in these stones. This Mother’s Day, show her just how special she is with beautiful diamond jewelry.
A gift of beautiful jewelry will make Mom feel like a queen this Mother’s Day. Do your research ahead of time so you can pick pieces that you know she’ll love. She’ll appreciate the thought that went into picking her jewelry gift and will cherish it forever.
