So, turning eight in our church is kind of a big deal. I wanted to give Mabel something special for her birthday to commemorate the big event.
Thank goodness for the r house couture and their mini choose the right necklace.
Do you know mrs. r? She's one of my old college roommates and best friends. I love her. She is one of the most passionate people I know, especially when it comes to adoption, and she has two of the cutest little boys to prove it. I have always admired her impeccable taste and simple, beautiful jewelry. Mrs. r and two of her friends and fellow adoption advocates are the talent behind the r house couture. They make some of the prettiest, most inspirational hand stamped jewelry I've seen. Every piece has a story. My favorite is the I can do hard things necklace. So brilliant.
Because Mabel and I love her ctr necklace so much, the ladies at the r house couture want to give one away to one of you! Hurrah!
Here are the details:
Click on over to the r house couture and take a look around. Then come back and leave a comment on this post telling me what you liked best in the shop. One lucky commenter will win their very own mini ctr necklace! It's perfect. Trust me. Mabel loves her's. It's delicate and pretty and an excellent reminder to always choose the right.
Hurry, the winner will be announced Friday morning (which means you have until Thursday night to enter)!
*Time's up. The giveaway is now closed.*

ReplyDeleteone of my favs is the Eventually bracelet. As well as come what may and LOVE IT us@brianchristine.com
ReplyDeleteI love the mini CTR necklace! Wish I got one for my daughter last year! I will have another 8 year old next year so I will have to keep this in mind!
ReplyDeleteI like the mini ctr necklace best. my girls would love it too. they can't keeo track of their lil green rings for some reason. they are much better at necklaces.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great piece of CTR jewelry! Here are my top three: the mini initials necklace, the CTR necklace, and the "keep calm and carry on" necklace. Great shop!
ReplyDeletei LOVE the keep calm and carry on necklace! I love all the stuff actually, but that is my favorite. Now how to convince my husband I need it is another issue! Thanks for the giveaway, I love the ctr necklace too! hir06005@byui.edu
ReplyDeleteGorgeous jewelry. I love the keep clam and carry on necklace. I would love to win the CTR necklace since I have a little girl getting baptized this year. She would love it. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI have to say her things are great. I found a necklace that said "things happen for a reason". it made me cry. 23 years ago July 29th I gave up a baby boy for adoption. As I grow older, I realize making bad mistakes still happen for a reason. Thanks for sharing her things.
ReplyDeleteMabel looks so pretty and grown up!
ReplyDeleteI can't decide between the tiny initial charm necklace and the be still necklace. They all look great.
Thank you for sharing their wonderful shop. I love the mini initial pendant. Everything is great though! Pick me :)
ReplyDeletelove the CTR necklace - so pretty! what a great giveaway :)
ReplyDeleteI love the "Endure" necklace. Would love a little reminder around my neck to hang in there sometimes.
ReplyDeleteWow, lots of comments! I love the "Keep Calm and Carry On" necklace. They are SO talented! cute cute cute!
ReplyDeleteI like the I (heart) you necklace.
ReplyDeletesaw99a@ yahoo.com
I think all their items are adorable, but I think my favorite is the "So Sassy" necklace. It makes me think of a dear friend who is definitely that! (and I think I'll need to grab one for her!)
ReplyDeleteWell it's official, I know what I'm getting my mom for her birthday, since "I can do hard things" is pretty much her daily motto.
ReplyDeleteI also love the Be Still necklace, and the tiny charm with icecream cones was absolutely precious.
In short, I love and want it all!
That CTR necklace is such a great idea! Even if I don't win it I'm going to buy Emily one for when she gets baptized in Sep. Thanks Steph!
ReplyDeleteI love the ctr necklace and I also really like the skinny rectangle one. sooo cute.

ReplyDeleteVery cool shop! I think I'd have to agree with you, and say my favorite is, "i can do hard things." LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteOh my - I love them all! I think my favorites are the Endure and Courage tags. Of course that CTR one is perfect too. I know my little girlie would love it!
ReplyDeleteStephanie C.

ReplyDeleteI like the be still necklace. Thanks for the chance to win :)
ReplyDeleteI love the foundation necklace and since my ten year anniversary is today - its on my mind :)
ReplyDeleteMy second fave is the CTR necklace, because my daughter is getting baptised in December and what a perfect gift for a very girly-girl. She'd love it!

ReplyDeleteGreat! I love anything with the word HOPE...it's my favorite word, b/c w/o HOPE we have nothing...
ReplyDeleteI have been looking at mother's rings for some time, trying to find just the right thing. Some of these necklaces - whether names or initials - are a perfect way to personalize and have a piece to wear every day, close to my heart. What a wonderful site - thank you for the recommendation. And Happy 8th birthday to Mabel!
ReplyDeleteI think I NEED the "be still" necklace for myself! What a great reminder for me...
ReplyDeleteAlso, " I Can Do Hard Things" is a fave.
How can you pick just one!
Also, I posted a link on my FB page.
I love EVERYTHING... but especially the Be Still necklace. Awesome!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like the 'be still' necklace.

ReplyDeleteI like the I can do hard things
ReplyDeleteBe still
I really could go on and on...
Hope I win :o)
Wow, these are so beautiful! I love them all! The FOUNDATIONS Necklace is really cool as well as the I CAN DO HARD THINGS. Nice. Thanks for the awesome tip!!
ReplyDeleteI hold your hearts in mine.
ReplyDeleteMy face is I can do hard things and courage--i need those constant reminders. :)
ReplyDeleteI need to win this! my daughter is getting baptized on Saturday! :) Yay!
I love the foundations necklace!
ReplyDeleteI love the I (HEART) YOU Necklace. I've been yearning for one of these gorgeous pieces forever!
ReplyDeleteI love the "fresh courage take" necklace, but the CTR one is probably the best for my little girl too. I'll try not to feel selfish if I win!
ReplyDeleteI'm such a fan of you and your wonderful blog! (and I'm not just saying that bec I'd like to win this contest. ha! :-) What a perfect gift for my neice who is getting baptized in December. Thank you for the amazing ideas always!
ReplyDeleteOh my how do you choose? I think today with my day the one that touched me the most and is my favorite is the "kepp calm, carry on". I think that I am going to have to order that one.
ReplyDeleteI love love the the charm bracelet that says "Courage, Endure, Believe"
ReplyDeleteI need that one
What a wonderful shop!! I have 3 favourite necklaces, they are courage with the cinnabar & amazonite, the I can do hard things and the loved with the crystals. I have a daughter also that any of these would be perfect for. Congratulations to your daughter on her milestone.
ReplyDeleteYou are right! This is a super cute style. My favorite saying is keep calm and carry on. I just delivered twins a year ago and can I just say how difficult that is with a 2 year old. I definately need to tell myself to keep calm and carry on. That is definately when I enjoy my children the most and remember what special people I have been blessed with. Thank you for such inspiring websites!
ReplyDeleteI love my "I Love adoption" necklace from the R HOUSE!!!! !
ReplyDeletei love love LOVE the mini ctr necklace. so cute.
ReplyDeleteI love the courage necklace with the cinnabar for a splash of color. But my daughter would love this CTR necklace and it would be a great baptism present for her!
ReplyDeleteI love the R House for many reasons! I have looked at many things in their little shop and have many favorites, but for now I would have to say the baby bracelet and matching birth-mother necklace would top my list. This one tugs at my heart as I know the sacrifice that a birth mother makes and what a treasure it would be to be able to at least wear her precious babies name around her neck. BTW, I also LOVE the Jacob necklace cause I am totally team Jacob, haha!
ReplyDeleteThe CTR is adorable. I also really like the Be Still.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't pick a favorite...Love it all...I do love to see the wonderful positive messages - jewelry with a purpose other than just looking pretty - What a wonderful idea!
ReplyDeleteBy far, the item which caught my attention was the necklace piece that says, I HOLD YOUR HEARTS IN MINE. I presume the other two pieces are for your children's names. Being a new mom, this one touched me more than any of the others.
ReplyDeleteLove the mini initials necklace and the smooth black earrings
ReplyDeleteI would love a necklace for one of my girls! You have a really cute blog. I love our church. The r house couture is also one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable! My daughter would LOVE one!
