My Mother’s favorite place to go is the beach. She loves to walk and watch and listen to the crashing waves. I would make her a beautiful necklace with the JOE CRISANTI GREEN GLASS JELLYFISH PENDANT as the focal piece, peridot & ruby gemstone rounds (our birthstones), clear Swarovski crystals and the sterling Cresting Heart clasp to hold it all together with love. I’d most likely make myself a bracelet with all the same components except the focal piece-maybe with a sterling heart charm instead. My Mother is such a loving and giving person. If I can be even half the mom she is I will be thankful!
I LOVE the Heart Pendant – Walnut Wood.
We are Irish and VERY proud of it. My mother would LOVE it on a necklace
I would love to make a bracelet using the Grace Lampwork beads (LMP-0157) in purple and pink for my mother. The beads incorporate some of her favorite colors.
My mother did an amazing job raising six kids. She is elderly and not well. A bracelet would cheer her up as she would be able to enjoy viewing it on her wrist.
I love the walnut wood heart, I’d make a Swarovski crystal keychain with that heart dangling from it. <3
My favorite is the 20-21×30-31mm Oval Mother of Pearl Dragonfly Bead…I have been admiring that for quite awhile now! My Mom passed away September of last year at the age of 93 and one of her favorite colors was pink. She also loved to do crossword puzzles so what I would do to keep her memory close to me would be to use this very special bead on a book mark.
I would use the Sterling Silver Owl Charm as toggle closure for a mini photo album (Brag Book) that I am making for my mother that will include pictures of me and my brother as well as our children so she can brag to all her friends.
my favorite : a sunholder glasses

of course, when i make something for my mom, it’s a green one, her favorite colours !
i live in south of france et the sun shines shines shines. So, it’s a perfect idea of gift !!
My favorite piece from the Mother’s Day collections is the Gold Iris & Bamboo/Faith double sided donut. My mom is very spiritual and would love anything I could make with this, but my first idea would be to use gold wire to create some kind of wrap on sections of the donut, then attach it to a gold chain. It would make the perfect Mother’s Day gift!
I love the new Swarovski Wild Heart pendants. Classic yet modern and the colors are so vivid! The crystal shade and magma are my top pics. Add a few tiny pearls to them and they make gorgeous earrings or a stunning necklace.
Since I lost mom 2 years ago, I would use the heart picture frame to hold her picture and make a bracelet (for my daughter and me) with it that had crystals in a garnet color to represent her birth and the joy she gave to all that loved her. I also would love to use the flower heart pendant with a ribbon to tie onto a gift bag. Just beautiful!
With a gift card like this I could splurge on quality products & materials making 2 breathtaking necklaces, one for my mother and my mother-in law.
My focal bead would be the Rectangle Black Onyx Dragonfly (Code: AB-AN4) this stunning pendant is flexible enough to wear anytime, to work, or special occasions with that little black dress (that everywoman has).
It could be attached to leather or silk but for my Mother’s Day Special. I would use the Gunmetal-Plated 3 Strand + 3 Link Chain (Code: BGMCH12)
Completed with a beautiful Gunmetal-Plated Pewter Star-Shaped Flower Toggle (Code: PGM-TOG014) this leafy toggle complements mother nature at it’s best with the dragonfly pendant
Amazing!
I think any of the hand-painted Russian pendants on a simple strand of freshwater pearls would make a beautiful and classic gift for any mom. Add a pair of freshwater pearl stud earrings to make it a set!
This Gift card would be soooo Awesome! I loveeee to make beautiful Jewellery! I would use the Mother picture of the woman. I would use dark brass chain and dark with yellow, brown and orange wire wrapped gems on the necklace! Thank you for the chance!
I would like to use the worlds greatest mom charm on a Scrapbook Page for my Daughters, with pix of them and their Children.
My fav is the porcelain peacock feather bead. I would make a pendant out of sterling silver wire sculpture. Thanks for the contest and the chance to enter!
I absolutly adore the sterling/Resin pendants..so would my mom. Especially the Blue with Blossom tree pendant, she adores the color blue (so do I) and the tree (of life) would symbolize our family & the unconditional love between us all.
