August 29, 2008 by Megan
Thanks to everyone who entered our Labor Day Giveaway from Luxe Design!
Congrats to Commenter #78 Lynn H
With Labor Day approaching, I can’t help but think of all my soon-to-be mommy friends that just might be celebrating Labor Day by, well, going into labor! Has anyone heard of the new trend of ‘push’ presents? I’m not too keen on calling it a ‘push’ present - but I am keen on the idea of getting a gift in celebration of all the work that goes into having a baby…bring on the ‘push’ present!
The fabulous Make Your Own jewelry from Luxe Design would make the perfect ‘push’ present this Labor Day. Of course, you don’t have to be expecting a baby to want to get your hands on one of these beautiful designs. I’m going to design a necklace with both of my children’s names and a special one for my hubby - oh, and I love the bird charm too! What will you design?
This Labor Day weekend, we’re excited to swag one lucky reader with a $100 gift certificate to Luxe Design so you can design your own custom piece of jewelry!
To enter, click over to Luxe-Design.com and explore their online shop. Then, leaving us a comment telling us what charms would definitely be going on your custom-designed necklace!
You have until midnight PST Labor Day to enter. Winner will be announced on Tuesday morning.
Good luck and thanks Luxe Design!

I love the site and the charms! The birthstones are very simple and classic. I will be getting one for each of my kids. The word charms are great too!
I love the charm bracelet! When I was a child I had a charm bracelet that my Step Grandma had given to me. I wore it all the time. I still have it, put away in a safe place.
I would choose: The W03 combo. It has all the things I like.
I’m totally diggin this style. I’d love a long necklace with charms for Owen, my mighty knight, his Emerald and the “protect from harm” charm; and Olivia, my little princess, her Sapphire and the “princess” crown charm! How precious!!!
I love the word charms and the little flowers. So cute!
Oooh - I’d love these charms:
Cross Charm, Mini Angel, Dove, Abundance Proverb, large Smoky Quartz bead! So pretty… thanks for letting me know about this wonderful shop!
I would get a star charm with my little girls name on it. I also think it would be fun to get my sister a charm bracelet for her wedding day next summer!
It just couldn’t stop looking at all the charms. I already have some sayings in my head…like “The Joy of Motherhood Comes in Moments” — I would love to get a charm with that on it and then get a charm for each child I have (which is currently only one, but I could add on as I have more kids). Not to mention getting them for my sisters and mom as gifts! Thanks for showing me this site!
So many - large dainty flower, kid hand, Small Blue Agate, Briolette Blue Agate bead, Heartline Charm.
I would have the Angel Charm, the Courage Charm and the heartline garnet on my bracelet - thank you
i might order a custom mini word star with the word “BABY” and ruby and topaz birthstones for my boys
Here are 4 that I would have to have…
Mini Angel - who doesn’t need an angel watching over them?
Kid Hand - I’m a mother & a teacher…kids are the world to me!
Live Skull - I have a wild side too.
Four Leaf Clover - For luck, of course.

Thanks for the chance! I couldn’t stop designing. I like the heart charm w/my son’s name and the word “Blessed” and the cross charm w/turqoise and lapis beads for color.
This would be for my mom for Christmas! So, I would have to put the Desire & Heartline Charm, Love Peace Flip charm, and The Protect Charm (Protect From Harm.) Ok, i’m adding another one…. definitely the Engraved Love Charm.

Letters L and B for her initials.
