2011 Holiday Gift Guide - (Etsy) Contempo Jewelery Designs

It is always a pleasure working with fabulous Etsy sites,  such as the one I have the pleasure of introducing you to today.  Contempo Jewelry Designs™  specializes in artistic wire working techniques, which consists of mixing wire with semi-precious stones and fresh water pearls.   The result is beautifully designed pieces of unique pieces of jewelery that you more than likely will only find on Contempo Jewelry Designs™.


Each piece of jewelry is hand crafted and designed by Staci Egan herself.  She puts a lot of hard effort,  and pride into her items,  which is evident in her high quality work.  Although she has taken many classes in metal work, glass fusing,  bead stitching,  and precious metal clay she always comes back to her number one love,  wire!  Her passion for creating jewelery all started in 1999 when she purchased a handmade necklace on eBay and decided she can make her own jewelery.  Soon her hobby turned into a full time job.   Contempo Jewelry Designs™ physical shop is located in the historic village of Boalsburg, on the diamond on South Church in a quaint little village.

Take a look around her site and you will find many original pieces of jewelery that are very elegant and classy.  Another thing you will notice is that all of her pieces are extremely affordable.  Her items begin at only $7.00 and range in price up to $65.00.   Contempo Jewelry Designs™ offers beautiful earrings,  lovely necklaces,  cute hair pins,  plastic combs,  unique rings,  and pretty bracelets. They make great gifts to give to women for Mother's Day,  Valentine's Day,  Birthdays,  and of course the upcoming holidays including Christmas! 

I was lucky enough to receive a beautiful pair of Wire Wrapped White Pearl Stud Earrings to review.  I have always been fond of pearls,  but for some reason never purchased a pair of Pearl earrings,  so I was very excited to receive them.   As soon as they arrived I anxiously pulled them out of the  small little white jewelry box.  They looked so dainty and feminine,  just how they were pictured on her Etsy shop.  These classic earrings round 6mm white freshwater pearls are wrapped with a 22 gauge sterling silver wire.  The back of the earrings feature a base metal clutch which can be replaced with thick rubber backs if you have an allergy.


Do you need something customized?   No problem,  sizes,  colors,  stones,  ear wires,  and shapes can all be customized to your perfection! 


BUY IT:  You can purchase the Wire Wrapped White Pearl Stud Earrings for only $10 on Contempo Jewelry Designs™.  Shipping fees are only $2 to ship to the US and $3 to ship everywhere else.

MGF DESIGNS and more

I recently had the wonderful opportunity of participating in a review/giveaway with an  online site called MGF DESIGNS and More.  I took a look around the site and was fascinated by all of her beautiful handmade jewelery all priced very reasonably low.  Besides a hand full of homemade jewelery MGF DESIGNS and More also offers Fashion Jewelery,  Fashion Sterling Silver,  Fashion Bracelets,  Fashion Rings,  Fashion Watches,  Jewelery Organizers, Key Finders,  and newly added Candle Warmers and Homemade Soy Candle Melts.  The earring designs are very unique,  so you will not be able to find them in stores,  but you can find them on MGF DESIGNS and More!    

MGF DESIGNS and More came about when Maricris received a homemade necklace set from her husband.  The homemade necklace set was made by one of his co workers wives,  which inspired her to make her own homemade jewelery... only better!  She set out to make one of a kind jewelery,  and stumbled upon a creative way to produce a jewelery set that can be worn five different ways.  After becoming a stay at home mother she decided to introduce fashion jewelery  to her shop.  She can also make handmade wedding jewelery customized with a specific color of jewelery needed for your wedding party. 

Have you ever thought about throwing a Jewelery Party?  She also offers jewelery parties and if you decide to be a hostess you will receive a free gift along with 10% off  your next order if someone at the party signs up to host one as well.  During the party she will play 3-4 games with your guests making for a fun day with just the women.  I may just have to think about hosting one for my mothers birthday!  Of course,  it is only if you are located in her area,  which I just so happen to be.   She does parties around the Placerville and Sacramento area,  but contact her and she may be able to travel a little further. 

One of the best things about MGF DESIGNS products is that they are all very reasonably priced.  You will find a nice selection of five dollar earrings in all different colors and styles. MGF DESIGNS and more jewelery consists of Handmade Jewelery,  Fashion Jewelery,  and High End 925 Sterling Silver Jewelery.   And to organize all of your jewelery she also offers a couple jewelery organizers in either wood or wire.  And while your organizing your jewelery you might as well keep your purse up with a set of her Purse Hooks. 

I have been in need of a  new navel ring,  and much to my surprise she even offers Fashion Belly Rings.  She offers five stylish designs in an assortment of colors and styles including a variety of three heart shaped navel rings and two other styles as well.  The one that really caught my eye is the Pink Heart shaped navel ring.   It features a pink barbell attached hangs two pink studded hearts.  She sent it to me to review and two days later it was waiting for me in my mailbox( I live near where she is located).

I got my belly button pierced a couple days before my seventeenth birthday and had to beg my mom just to get it done.  3 children later,  and my navel is still pierced!  I love the style of this eye catching navel ring which pairs perfectly with a bikini or mid drift shirt to really show case it.  The pink rhinestones glisten in the light and really stand out.  The hearts on it represent love,  and believe me your going to love it!

Now lets rewind back to the $5 Earrings.  MGF DESIGNS and more currently has 9 different trendy pairs of earrings in stock.  Choose from dashing feather earrings that will be sure to get compliments,  or heart earrings with love written inside the heart and accented with beautiful beads hanging down from them.  Because they are only $5 each you can treat yourself to a pair and purchase a couple extra pair to give as gifts. All of the items on her site make a great gift for Valentines Day,  Mothers Day,  Birthdays,  Christmas and any other occasion for gift giving.  Her shipping charges are also very reasonable starting at only $2.99.
