Jewelry is such a fun accessory. What a better way to dress up an outfit!
Karen from madewithlovebykaren Etsy shop is offering one lucky reader a Bracelet in their choice of Red or Yellow! How cool is that?
Getting to know Karen
Where are you from? And a little bit about you
I am from the UK but I have been living in Florida for nearly 3 years, I am married & I am absolutely crazy about dogs! I love em & wish I could adopt a whole bunch; I also encourage others to adopt pets as they know they have been saved & they love you more for it. Much respect for the people who initially save them! My ultimate goal is to combine my love of TEA! & my love of creating by opening a British Tea Rooms & Art Gallery…. Watch this space!
How did you decide on your shop name?
My shop name came from tea making because whenever there is a crisis the British have a nice cuppa tea & when someone is really upset you have to make it with big special lots of love. Sanity is then restored & the world is ultimately a better place.
What is your inspiration when making a new item?
I get inspired by going shopping…. Tell me a woman that doesn’t? I have a bad bead habit so anything that catches my eye or if it is antique I like to break it up into new projects. SSShhh don’t tell my Grandma about her pearls!
What was the first piece you ever made?
I cannot remember the first piece I made as it was such a long time ago, I was 13 or 14 although I do remember making the necklace with dental floss & selling it to a vendor at the local craft fair, making a profit! Even then I was trying to take over the world haha
Do you have a blog, twitter, or facebook page?
I have all of the above

My Thoughts
I love jewelry! I also LOVE the beautiful colors in the bracelet and earrings I reviewed for Karen! Karen has some of those amazing pieces that I always tell you readers about. You don’t have to remove her jewelry to do the dishes, take a shower, and clean the house. You can wear it any time for anything! Karen’s items can go with T-shirts and jeans or a Fancy dinner party. Her items will also make wonderful Mothers Day gifts (wink, wink) It is in just a few weeks!
I think my favorite thing about the bracelet is the big clasp to put it on. I hate when a bracelet has a small clasp and I can’t get it on by myself. There is not always someone around to put my jewelry on for me! I also love that when the package came she had carefully wrapped it in a bag that said “Love” on it. It made me think of her Etsy shop right away. (Made with love by Karen) I also love that she wrapped the items in tissue paper and held it together with a sticky heart. What a way to personalize the item and make you feel special when you open the package. I would recommend Karen’s jewelry to everyone and anyone. It is beautiful and unique. Karen’s Jewelry is nice and dainty and makes you feel special and I love it.

I love the teal green & bronze set you featured. I think that's my favorite in Karen's shop. Although I like the amber zipper pull too – that would be a fun addition to something.
Happy FF – nice giveaway. And thanks for stopping by my blog:D
What beautiful pieces! I love jewelry but do not get to indulge nearly as much as I would like since I have 4 small little ones who would gladly rip it off as they wrestle with me! =)
