Holiday Charm

As the holidays are among us, our lives can easily be consumed by holiday parties and late night shopping. It can be even more stressful when your feet are swollen, your back hurts, the need to pee every five seconds is no exaggeration and not to mention the disappointment and exhaustion that can come from trying to find that perfect holiday outfit when NOTHING FITS!!!

I however have decided to take a different route. I'm saying NO, to the endless search to try and find that perfect holiday outfit, and saying YES, to investing in new custom made accessories.

I've also skipped the shopping malls and headed straight to Etsy to find myself some unique jewelry that will act as my holiday conversation starter. My favorite find.....the Gilded Wishbone by HandMadeWhimsy.  The necklace comes in different lengths, so even if your neck has swollen to twice its normal size, Anna (the artist!), can make a necklace to fit anyone. Not to mention that the wishbone is absolutely adorable, and fits right into the holiday spirit with out having to wear Santa Clause and his reindeer entourage around your neck.

My other favorites by HandMadeWhimsy include; the Keepsake Key, the Snow White Locket and the Filigree Foliage. All of her hand made treasures also come neatly packed, and present ready in a box tied off with a bow. What more could a pregnant girl ask for?
