I've had the wonderful pleasure
of knowing Tania, the diva-mommy
that created little JULES, for
many years. She's always
wanted children and when she
announced she was expecting I
knew she'd be just as loving a
mother as she is a friend.
News of premature delivery to
her son Julian, however, sent
shockwaves of worry among family
and friends. Julian spent
six weeks in the NIC unit, and
Tania spent every single day by
his side, each moment a precious
gift of time.
Her husband Tony bought a
personalized bracelet for their
infant son only to discover it
was much too big for his tiny
wrist. Tania, who has
always had a flare for style
that shadows anything I could
whip up, designed her own little
bracelet for Julian, one that
fit him as a preemie so they
wouldn't have to wait for him to
grow into it. And thus,
after receiving compliments on
the bracelet and developing a
love of creating jewelry, little
JULES was born in the spirit of
celebrating the life of their
child - and every child.
Through this whole process I was
intrigued with her vision and
the successful growth of little
JULES, but I was also bummed
because I didn't have any
children or pets of my own to
celebrate in style. But
then one day recently, as I was
looking for new things to make
me feel sparkly, I realized I
had been practically stalking
the little JULES website wanting
a personalized pendant for
myself.
In a sudden moment of clarity, I
realized that BeSparkly was my
"baby" and I wanted to celebrate
my dream in style too.
Without hesitating, I ordered my
own custom necklace and have
found it is already my favorite
accessory because feeling
"sparkly" goes with everything.
The front of the necklace has a
set of adorable hand and foot
prints...
