A Bodacious Bracelet Bolus

** This contest is now closed. **

WELCOME!
I have the honor of hosting this week's sugar bolus!  

What have I cooked up for you this week???  

Something pretty wonderful that we LOVE! 

This week I am giving away a $30 gift certificate to Petite Baubles!

Here is a little about Petite Baubles....

We offer High quality Boutique style beaded baby, children and adult bracelets and jewelry at a reasonable cost. We use only the finest quality materials to ensure that your piece of jewelry will last.


Here at Petite Baubles Boutique, I personally handcraft each piece of jewelry in my design studio.. I can assure you that each piece of jewelry is inspected again before it is shipped out to you.. I pride in my craftsmanship and designs so that my customers are happy.. Customer service is my 100% goal...


As a mom with a child with special needs I know how scary it can be to take them out into the world. Even more so to let them go on their own. A medical ID tag is my first line of defense. I know that if my child gets into trouble they will get immediate attention, AND that the rescuer will be able to contact me, or other important people. The biggest dilemma...how to get them to wear the tags! That's how Petite Baubles Boutique was born! Fun, stylish and affordable jewelry to compliment your medical ID tags. Now the questions is will you wear your tag today but WHICH bracelet will you choose to wear today!


Quality verses cost...
People say.. you need to raise your prices.. Why are my prices lower than others? Here is your answer....I love my daughter to have nice jewelry.. do I want to pay top dollar for a small child to wear a piece of jewelry?...No.. So I focus my prices on what I feel is a reasonable cost.. rest assured you will still get the high quality piece of jewelry but a much more reasonable cost...


Some people ask why I choose to donate a portion of each sale of my awareness and cancer awareness designs.. Here is my answer that comes from my heart...
No matter whether it be a penny, a dime or even dollar amounts.. those few pennies, dimes and dollars are helping in finding cures..
I think of it like this...Take cancer..When my daughter grows up...I pray that she will not be sitting in an oncologists office being told there is nothing else they can do.. that her daughter won't have to battle and die of breast cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer..... so each penny donated makes us one step closer to the tools that are needed to find a cure...
So my friends.. that's why I donate a portion... Please be assured that for every awareness bracelet that you purchase from my website I do make the donations to the organizations stated...
Sound like a great place???  It is!

And I can fully attest to that!


See the cute little crown bracelet?  That's Sweetpea's Medical Alert bracelet!

When Sweetpea was first diagnosed, we got brochures in the hospital for medic alert bracelets.  I looked through them in the hospital... but they were all so expensive.  And Sweetpea had JUST turned 3.  She had NEVER worn a bracelet.  REFUSED.  I didn't want to spend a lot of money for something she might not wear.

BUT... I wanted something cute!

When we got home, Sweetpea and I searched the Internet together looking for a cute bracelet... and we found Petite Baubles.  It something fun and light hearted for us to do.  And that was a time when we desperately needed something fun.  Picking out and getting her cute little bracelets in the mail was a ray of sunshine during a rather dark time.  


You see.... it's MORE than a bracelet to keep her safe. 

We both fell in love with the super cute bracelets that they offered!

Honestly, I was a little skeptical if they would last - if they could handle the daily wear and tear of a toddler.  

But they did! 

Sweetpea LOVES these bracelets.  From the moment they arrived, she was smitten.  This child, who had never worn a bracelet before, put it on and never took it off.  Truly!  She often wears them to bed!  

We started with the Miss Kitty bracelet and then got the Princess Crown bracelet for a back up!  We quickly realized that having an extra is a necessity!

One of the other things that I loved about Petite Baubles is that they offered very small sizes!  Not every place out there offers bracelets for a very small wrist... but they do!


They don't JUST do bracelets, though..... Look at this list of things you can choose from... for children OR adults... Whether you're a PWD, CWD, or not!
