Birthstone Charms Jewelry Ideas
One of the most popular additions to the charm bracelet or necklace are birthstone charms. Birthstones are gems that represent the month in which a person was born. If you are unfamiliar with the different stones for each month, they are as follows: January – garnet, February – amethyst, March – aquamarine, April – diamond, May – emerald, June – pearl, July – ruby, August – peridot, September – sapphire, October – opal, November – topaz and December – turquoise. Now you are ready to shop for yourself or a loved one.
If you are putting together a charm bracelet for yourself, you could add a charm that features your birthstone in a silver setting. Often if you cannot find the actual stone there is colored CZ and Swarovski crystals that are used to simulate your birthstone. There are many different charm designs featuring these stones, so you are sure to find a favorite. These charms also make fabulous birthday gifts for girls or women in your life who enjoy jewelry. Along with the birthstone you could feature charms representing the gift recipient's favorite things. Another hot trend are charms for mothers.
You might have heard of the mothers' ring, which includes all the birthstones of one's children. However you can make a mothers' charm bracelet or necklace by including all the birthstones of your kids. There are heart shapes and even boy/girl figures that feature the birthstone color. To add a little something extra you could even get alphabet charms for each child's first name or a number charm to signify how many kids you have. While bracelets are more popular, charm necklaces are catching on as well especially when it comes to charms for moms. And, for your birthday or Christmas your kids could give you new charms to add to your bracelet.
