Tennis Bracelets – Timeless Beauty

Unless you’ve lived in a cave for the last several decades, you surely recognize the dainty, sparkling bracelets we call tennis bracelets. If you are a thinker like me, you may have wondered why they’re called tennis bracelets.

I did some research and found they were originally called eternity bracelets. The name change came in the late 1970’s when Chris Evert’s eternity bracelet flew off her wrist onto the court at the 1978 US Open. The match had to be halted while the bracelet was located. The whole debacle made the world aware of this gorgeous piece of jewelry, that became known as the tennis bracelet.

Tennis bracelets come in all kinds of styles, they are so versatile, you can wear them alone or pair them with other bracelets, even bangles. Whatever your price range, you can find the right bracelet for you.

Some opt for cubic zirconia or birthstones set in sterling silver or yellow or white gold. You can even choose more economical gold-plated options. Whatever you choose, you will love that you can wear a tennis bracelet anywhere. Whether you are dressed to the nines or in sweats, tennis bracelets add just the right touch.

I like to wear several tennis bracelets together. I have some tennis bracelets with the birthstones of my children, others with sparkling cubic zirconia set in sterling silver or yellow gold. Whether I am heading out to a wedding or going apple picking, they are the perfect accessory choice. They are not cumbersome or heavy, which really appeals to me. I hate having anything clunky or distracting on my wrist.

Tennis bracelets are a great gift because their beauty and style is timeless. A tennis bracelet in the recipient’s birthstone make a beautiful birthday, graduation or Christmas gift. Get a new mom a tennis bracelet with the birthstone of her baby. What a great gift idea that is! Can you imagine having a tennis bracelet to commemorate the birth of every child? That would be amazing!

Brides look stunning with a diamond or cubic zirconia tennis bracelet that adds just the right amount of bling. Whatever the occasion, I don’t think you can go wrong with a tennis bracelet.

Let me know what you think of tennis bracelets in the comments. I would love to hear your thoughts.

The 828 Movement continues to spread positive images of people past and present that are doing great things in the community. They also offer a way for everyone to participate in the fight for education equality, by introducing stylish new jewelry items to proudly wear and hopefully make a difference with the school donations and upcoming college scholarships.

100% OF THE NET PROFITS GO TO UNDERFUNDED URBAN AREA SCHOOLS IN AMERICA.

Give a Rose That Lasts Forever #Giveaway

Roses are beautiful, but they die so fast when cut for bouquets. Sure, you can dry and press them, but that does not leave you with a vibrant, beautiful flower. Wouldn’t it be amazing if they could stay beautifully preserved forever?

If you like that idea, you will love, The Eternity Rose. They take a natural rose and create a gorgeous work of art by electroforming it with 24 karat gold. Then, they cover the leaves and petals in a radiant glaze.

The leaves are treated in a way that dissolves the green tissue, leaving the underlying leaf structure. This reveals a beautiful lattice framework that they coat with 24 karat gold and then glaze.

Each rose is crafted by hand and is truly unique. I recently ordered one of their purple glazed roses. It was presented in a beautiful case that cradled this breathtaking flower with care. The rose is absolutely stunning, you can see more on our video below.

They have roses available in so many beautiful colors on their website. They also have, exquisite pendants and earrings made using real miniature roses. They even have gift sets of their roses and jewelry. These roses make perfect gifts for Valentine’s Day, birthdays, anniversaries and more. Why not give a gift that will be around for longer than a week?

I have good news, we are holding a giveaway and you can enter below for your chance to win a pendant or a pair of earrings of your choice from, The Eternity Rose!
