Last month I discovered Lauren Nicole Gifts one-of-a-kind personalized jewelry on a friend’s blog Rave and Review. I immediately got excited because my Dad’s 70th birthday was coming up and I had found the perfect gift.
My Dad is a tough nut to crack in the gift-giving department. He is SO hard to buy for. But a handmade-in-the-USA keepsake silver key chain with his first grandson’s artwork! I was thrilled to find the idea. I got Ronin (my 5-year-old) to draw a picture of his Grandpa and sign it. He always draws people the same way and I think its so cute.
Here is the drawing…and the beautiful result (that by the way, my Dad LOVED. He said “That’s pretty neat” and put it right on his keychain!):
Wow. It turned out SO nicely. Great quality and very nice packaging all ready for gift giving. It even arrived with a jewelry cleaning cloth and instructions for keeping it bright and shiny.
I was so happy with my purchase, I contacted Denise at Lauren Nicole to see if she might be willing to do a giveaway on the blog. She graciously offered to send me my own one-of-kind jewelry to review, and she’s giving one lucky Motherhood Unadorned reader a $50 gift certificate. Woot!
I loved Ronin’s drawing so much that I had her create a charm for me with his same cute little man. And of course had to represent my daughter Ellie, my little star.
I just LOVE it. I put the charms on my own long ball chain and have been wearing it constantly. It truly makes me smile, and Ronin and Ellie love to talk about how much they like their charms. Each of the pendants is a good solid chunk of silver, which I was really pleased to see.
Denise has been wonderful to work with and very responsive. The ordering process is simple, and submitting artwork or handwriting for your own personalized jewelry or keepsake is as easy as sending an email. The shipping was priority mail and very quick.
Lauren Nicole Gifts specializes in one-of-a-kind personalized pieces with handwriting, child’s artwork, footprints or hand prints, as well as waxed seal and monogram jewelry. Necklaces, bracelets, rings, cuff links, key chains and much more.
Here are some of my favorites….

My favorite item that I pray I can win is the Sterling Silver Message Necklace made with your Child’s Hand Writing. My daughter passed away at age eleven, due to a brain tumor. Before she’d passed, we (the school team) had decided not to concern ourselves with teaching her cursive writing. Instead, we’d work on perfecting her printing. The tumor had left her with fine motor control issues.
After Olivia passed, I found in her notebook a paper where she has signed her name in cursive!! If it weren’t for my fear of pain, I’d have it tattooed on my arm. Since that’s not likely to happen, this is an amazing option that I’d wear proudly every single day of my life.
