Don't Leave Your House Naked!

I'm not sure about all the other women out there...but if I leave the house without my earrings I feel totally naked! I have even been known to duck into a discount store to grab a pair of cheap earrings before a meeting just so that I don't have to face the world without my baubles. It's amazing how two little seemingly innocuous pieces of jewelry can make or break your day! Now is the time to ramp up your current inventory to match the new Fall trends. Purples, greens and browns are big for the season. Charming Life carries so many beautiful choices made from semi-precious stones. We offer gorgeous earrings made of amethyst, smoky quartz, turquoise, amazonite, kyanite, and so many others. Most are offered in a choice of either 14kt. gold-filled or sterling silver. Don't hit the Fall season unprepared...treat yourself to a new pair of earrings and enjoy the cool weather while showing off your HOT new jewelry!

What To Look For In Silver Jewelry

Charming Life Designs is in the business of designing and manufacturing handcrafted jewelry and specialty charms. All of the collections are created using only quality materials including genuine gemstones, freshwater pearls, Swarovski crystals and precious metals (sterling silver or 14K gold fill).

Many jewelry designers, including Charming Life Designs, use silver extensively in their collections due to its durability, beauty and its affordability.

When purchasing silver jewelry, what should the consumer look for? The standard for high quality silver jewelry is sterling silver. Since pure silver is very soft, it is combined with copper to create a metal that is both strong and durable. For centuries, sterling silver has been 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper. Today, jewelry that is sterling silver must be stamped with 925 indicating that it has been made with 92.5 percent silver.

Sterling silver jewelry is beautiful, durable and affordable. One can be assured, when purchasing sterling silver jewelry from Charming Life Designs, the quality of workmanship is unsurpassed.

Enjoy,

Lynn
