Unknown said...

I got here from Nienie. I have been a long time reader/lurker of hers. I don't believe I have ever commented on one of her posts because mostly, she makes me cry. She has been through so much and it tears me up what her and her family have gone through and have come out of stronger.

You have a beautiful family and create gorgeous work. I would love to have one of those necklaces with my family's initials. It makes me think about being able to hold my family close to me at all times when wearing it.

Richelle said...

I'm a new friend :) but hope to become an old one. I love all your things and would love to win!

Worn out mommy said...

I saw these in the back of a magazine once and last night I was up until 1 am looking for these. I couldn't remember what the site name was, but knew it had the name pearl in it. I prayed that God would reveal the name to me so I could quit looking for it. Today at church, my friend told me she wanted her husband to get her a Vintage Pearl necklace. I just about fell over. That was the answer to my prayer! I want one SOOOOOOOO Bad!

Sarah said...

I'm a new reader and I am smitten.

smith family6 said...

Jamie Pearson said...

missyg said...

Such a lovely idea for a necklace. What a way to always have your family with you. :)

Frances said...

I was recently looking for something special and personal for the mother in law who has everything for Christmas and I found your site. I love your stuff and i ordered the mother of pearl necklace with all her missionary names and a missionary scripture reference. I can't wait to see her face when she opens it. She has 2 out right now and has had 4 others serve honorably! I also ordered the leather cuffs for the 2 missionaries who are out with sentimental encouragement references on the cuffs. I absolutely love your pieces. they are unique and beautiful and I can't wait to give the ones i've ordered but I would love an excuse to have something for myself!

Frances said...

P.S. I facebooked it to all my friends, and I would tweet but this bird doesn't sing... ;)

Casey said...

Oh how I would just love-love-love to win this! I am a very old friend. Nie Nie turned me on to you a while back through her blog and I have been in love ever since. I come over to TVP often just to window shop as it has not been in our budget yet for me to be the lucky owner of one. My FAV is: the Cup of Love with my daughter Alyson's name on it. Maybe it will be my lucky day =)

I love your blog and website and I also follow Nie Nie's blog. A friend of mine has one of your necklaces and ever since the day she showed hers to me.

I have two darling children and one sweet hubby, I want to honor them somehow by wearing them around my neck with one of your beautiful creations.

Theresa Koehler said...

I am a new friend--I have drooled over your work for some time and have it on my Christmas wish list but have yet to comment or purchase. I love the bloom pendant, but as we have just recently started our family and have just the first of what we hope will be a big brood of kiddos, I was hoping for a cool necklace to add on to. This one is great! Can I order just the charms later on down the road?

Christina Satu said...

I love your blog, I have looked at it many times but I suppose I am a "new friend". I am a "starving student" however so I'd love to win. I would wear your necklace often, often. Thank you for giving people opportunities to win like this, it gets me excited about little things :) Thank you again, and have a wonderful day!
