Alex and Ani Giveaway

This giveaway has ended. Thanks to all that entered!
Since my internet was out yesterday, I'm late in my Thursday Adult Gifts post. So before I post Friday's Clothing Gift, I want to tell you all about Alex and Ani. This special gift can be for a loved one, your best friend, or a teen who loves jewelry. Who doesn't love jewelry?? I know I do! What makes this company stand out to me is that they believe consciousness and glamor coexist. Alex and Ani only uses recycled metals, made in the US, for each piece of jewelry that they create. I love Eco-friendly fashion!!! This is definitely a company you want to bookmark for your significant other for gift hints!

Alex and Ani's
mission is to "design products that adorn the body, enlighten the mind, and empower the spirit." Alex and Ani create inspiring bracelets, necklaces, earrings, rings, and headbands. Now they have come up with the most special and unique gift- the Create Your Own Bangle Bar. This allows you to be become a designer and create the perfect set of Signature Expandable Bangles for you or your loved one! You can choose from their plain bangles with signature finishes, bangles with vintage and colorful beads, and Alex and Ani's most popular bangles adorned with personal, spiritual, and meaningful charms. Plus, you can find something that fits into your budget!

I was sent one of Alex and Ani's bangles and I knew this company was for me when I opened the box and read, "When the power of love, overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace...." - Jimi Hendrix. The quote just struck me and added even more meaning to the bangle. After being touched by the quote, I was amazed at the craftsmanship of the bangle.It comes in Russian gold or Russian Silver. I'm not a gold person, but this bangle's vintage look is more rustic than the average gold. It is adjustable and you can add multiple bangles to complete the look. There are tons of other single bangles to choose from to add to your gift. Here are some ideas to complete the set:This is what I created with the Create Your Own Bangle Bar. You can also purchase just the bangles without the charms to add a layered look.
