I am SO excited to share two new charm updates with you guys, and a really special giveaway that would be *perfect* for the holidays.
Finding charms is hard work. There are so many out there — some good, some bad. But they have to speak to you. Taking your time to look and find the *perfect* charm takes patience and a lot of time searching the internet. And when all else fails, you can always go the custom route.
The giveaway will be posted on Instagram later today so make sure not to miss out! I’ll post on my handle @kristarobertso and my store handles @pennylinndesigns so there will be multiple ways to enter. You can head over there for full details.
Penny Linn Designs Logo: From the day I launched my store I knew I wanted a logo charm for my bracelet. The gardenia flower is so special to me, and now with Penny Linn being such a big part of my life, it only made sense to have it with me always. I reached out to Christina to see if it was even possible — cutting out a charm in this way and having it engraved with the fine lines. As always she came through! It looks exactly like the picture I carried in my mind and it’s one of the more special charms on my bracelet.
30th Birthday Charm: I scoured the internet for a charm to represent my 30th birthday and I came up with nothing. I was open to just about anything that was special enough for the occasion, but there were few celebratory/birthday/zodiac charms I found that weren’t tacky. So I worked with Christina and told her I wanted something green (emerald is my birthstone) and that’s about it lol.
When I saw the CAD design I knew that was it! We engraved my birthday on the back as a little extra touch and I couldn’t love it more.
Going back to the beginning of my charm wishlist, I have it all outside of the Kentucky and house charm which I consider a big success. I assume the next one I’ll add to my list will be a baby-related charm but only time will tell!
