Millions of families every year flock to a beach destination for their annual summer vacation. My family is no exception. When I was a little girl we started visiting the Jersey Shore multiple times every year and now that I’m 50 years old, we still go down to the shore!

One of my favorite things to do when I’m at the beach is to go shelling. I collect beach sand, seashells, driftwood, sea glass and all kinds of different treasures that I find lying along the coast. Over the years, I’ve amassed quite the collection and I treasure it.
Like most women, I love jewelry and I’m always looking for unique beach theme’d jewelry pieces to add to my collection. A few years ago I stumbled upon Dune Jewelry and was instantly in-love with their unique, high-quality and affordable piece
About Dune Jewelry: The company captures memories from where you’ve been, where you love and where you’re going. They’re the perfect time capsule for all of your beach, adventure and favorite travel memories. All pieces are handcrafted right here in the U.S.A.
Each piece of Dune Jewelry is filled with sand, clay, earth or other elements from your most cherished travels and adventures from around the world. Each piece is custom, handmade and one-of-a-kind. Visit Dune’s Sandbank™ where they offer thousands of sands and locations worldwide, over 3,300 locations to choose from and you also have the option to send your own sand and natural element from a special vacation or adventure.
You can find various “collections” and styles within their jewelry lineup for both men and women. You will find necklaces, pendants, rings, earrings, bracelets, cuff links and more.
Recently I received the Sterling Silver Wave Necklace from Dune Jewelry and instantly fell in-love with it! The chain is adjustable so you can wear it at 16″, 18″ and 20″ in length. Perfect for any neckline! The pendant is about the size of a “dime” and features a wave motif. Everything is made with .925 sterling silver.
For my element I selected beach sand from our favorite beach location in North Wildwood, New Jersey. I really like the size and the design is very modern & contemporary. If you wanted to change out the chain and wear it on a different chain or leather cord…you could certainly do that since it has a generous sized bail. It lays really nicely around your neckline.
Mother’s Day is just around the corner and I think every Mom, Grandma, Sister, Daughter and Woman in your life deserves a new piece of Dune Jewelry! Head on over to Dune Jewelry and take a look around. I think you’re going to love everything that you see. You can connect with the company on Facebook too!

Sam and I will be celebrating our 34th wedding anniversary in April 2020. Every year we like to buy each other a memorable gift to mark the occasion.

Last year my husband purchased me this custom made wall art piece that honors our First Date…where it all started! The photo shows the alignment of the stars in the sky on June 29th, 1984. I love the simple wordage that is underneath. It’s a large piece and we have it proudly hanging in our hallway for everyone to see.
I thought it would be nice to list out some of the best personalized wedding anniversary gifts that I found over on Amazon. We personally own or have given these items as gifts to loved ones. They’re beautiful personalized art prints!
Personalized Our Love Story Sign – This print comes unframed which is nice…you can get it framed to match your own decor. It measures 8 1/2″ by 11″ in size. It can stand alone or be used as an accent. It can be personalized with your first date, the date you got engaged and the date you got married. Plus, it’s affordable!!!
Lover’s Crossroads Personalized Print – This print comes unframed so you can get it framed to match your own decor. I love how simple and classic it looks. You get it printed with your first names and the date that you became hitched. I think it will never go out of style!
Love Grows Personalized Art Print – This print comes to you unframed and I think it would look beautiful framed-up in a rustic wooden frame. You can get it personalized with your first names and wedding date or the date of your first date! Either one would be appropriate. I think it would make a great engagement gift too. The groom could get it personalized with your First Date and present it to his bride-to-be with an engagement ring. I know she would be touched!
Custom Phone Cover for Couples – while a casing for a gadget or mobile phone is an unexpected anniversary gift, it is a practical one. Everyday gadgets like mobile phones and tablets are an investment, so it is important to protect them from dents and scratches to get the most use out of them. A protective case should help extend their utility. Rather than settling for a boring, perfunctory cover, you have the wonderful option of designing a quirky one for both you and your partner.
When giving personalized art prints I like to recommend that you give them unframed unless you’re buying them for yourself. Everyone decorates their own way. When I purchase things like this I like to present the couple with a gift card to their local frame shop, so that they can select their own mat and frame to go along with it. You don’t have to spend a lot of money!
Gifts like this are always appreciated and treasured by the couple receiving them and never go out of style.

What is a Silent Alarm Clock? Given that the main reason an alarm clock was invented, was to wake a person up, if they couldn’t do it themselves – having a ‘silent’ one, may seem like an absurd idea. But hold that thought. These are …
