When Mom puts on her new piece of jewelry, she will think of Mother's Day ... and she'll think of you. It could be a ring ... maybe a Mother's ring with a birthstone for each child. Perhaps a necklace with hand stamped discs, each for a child in the family. It could be a charm bracelet with charms or birthstones with a similar meaning. Or maybe a pair of earrings, made with her favorite color beads! Jewelry is a very meaningful gift, and will help make the day a memorable one.
Here are some fabulous gift ideas from JET members. Remember, some of these items may require stamping, engraving or custom stone setting ... so please order early!
