Moonrise Jewelry Giveaway

Did you wear green today? I wore a green tee shirt even though I didn't leave the house. I usually wear something subtle on St. Patty's Day since green isn't really my color. Though, I have no issues with green jewelry! Since my mom loves jewelry and hasn't had the chance to really benefit from the review products we get, I gave her my new Moonrise Jewelry earrings.

These Cherrystone Earrings are handmade in Virginia by Moonrise Jewelry. The materials were bought through Fair Trade and are renewable, recycled, or reclaimed. The earrings are green recycled glass with sterling silver ear wires. They are small, yet they stand out. My mom said they were light and comfortable. Some dangley earrings pull on your lobes and get uncomfortable after wearing them for long periods. I really like that you can wear them with anything. They looked great with my mom's business attire, but could go with jeans and a tee. You can get the Cherrystone Earrings for only $25!

Moonrise Jewelry has an excellent selection of Eco-friendly, Fair Trade jewelry. They also carry exquisite real orchid blossom jewelry! Moonrise Jewelry makes sure that:

Every gem is mined through a low-impact mining process
No child labor is used during any process
No forces or exploitative labor is used
Safe working conditions are observed and maintained
Stones are untreated and natural
Gemstones are mined by hand using basic tools
That the mining and polishing process meets and exceeds with the progressive environmental protection standards

Moonrise Jewelry also tracks each gem from the mine to their studio to ensure they are handled to the strict environmental and social protocols.

If you love Moonrise Jewelry, you can even throw a Online E-Party! This is a great way to earn money for a charity or yourself. And it's easy!
