Gift that made my mom cry

This necklace was the best! I got this necklace for my 80 year old mom for Christmas. A year after my dad passed away my mom took of kids on a cruise to celebrate my dad's life! Our favorite place was Roatan. My mom and I favorite stone is turquoise. I saw this necklace and said that is perfect for my mom. Then I searched through the sands and saw Roatan! I said this is the best present I could ever get my mom! So I got the necklace and I had to open it to look at it. I got a little teary when I saw it. So I packed it back up with some other things I got my mom and send it to her. I wanted her to open it right away but she wanted to wait until Christmas. So Christmas I was at work. I called her when I had a minute. I was on the phone when she opened it. She said it was a very pretty necklace. Then I told her to read the bottom of the card to see where the sand was from. She read it and said "IT IS FROM ROATAN!!!!" She said that was always her favorite part of the cruise and still is her favorite place to go. Then she started crying. Thank you for having the best gift in the world that I could give my mom!

Beautiful!

I was worried they would be gaudy, but they were beautiful. My friends were impressed with their gifts and the thought that went into them using their favorite beaches.

Absolutely gorgeous!

This was a gift for a friend whose daughter lives in Barbados. My friend had recently visited her daughter, so this necklace was a big hit for its beauty and sentiment. What a unique gift to have sand from Barbados in the necklace.
