I was thrilled when I was given the opportunity to review a bracelet from Sonya Mattey at Belly Charms.
Sonya began her business when she was pregnant with her second son and discovered that, while pregnancy belly buttons rings did exist, they were hard to find. She finally found one, loved it and then decided to modify it after her son was born. That was the starting point of Belly Charms!
Sonya sells her items from her online store at http://www.bellybuttonringsandthings.com/ .
In addition to the Belly Charms, Sonya also makes breathtakingly beautiful bracelets and anklets and she also sells toe rings and really cute flip flops! I was also impressed by the fact that Sonya has a line of breast cancer awareness jewelery and a portion of each sale goes the American Cancer Foundation. As someone who has had many family members die from this disease, I think it is great to support through awareness and donations!
Sonya let me choose any item to review, and I asked if she could make me a bracelet with the names of my three girls! I chose the Swarovski Pearl Multi Strand Mother’s Bracelet with my girls’ names on it and I
loved the fact that I was able to choose specify the size, pearl color selection and strand information.
When my bracelet came, it literally took my breath away! It was in a lovely velvet box and the bracelet was gorgeous – more beautiful than I ever could have imaged! I loved the combination of the silver and the pearls together and I also really liked the fact that the letters appear on all side so that even if one gets turned, you can still see the letter clearly!
Throughout my correspondence with Sonya, I found my dealings with her 100% positive! With two young children at home, it is obvious that she is caring and dedicated to her work and everything is made to the
highest standards!
I am beyond thrilled with my bracelet. I have already been showing it off to everyone I know and telling them about Sonya’s website and how they can get one of their own!
