My Mother was a talented seamstress.  I have many memories of her sitting in her sewing room, covered in threads, with one of us impatiently waiting to see the final creation.  Oh my gosh - I can't even tell you how many photographs I have of me and my younger sister wearing matching jumpers and outfits, lol!  The 80's.....such good memories.  Anytime my clothing didn't fit right, I would run straight to my Mother, expecting some sort of miracle.  She was overly patient as she taught me all that she knew about textiles, garment design and alterations.  Even when she had to point out the impossibilities, she never hampered my creativity or my love of fashion.  She taught me to be resourceful - you don't always have to be in an authentic Oscar de la Renta to feel like a princess (or look like one.)  

In the spirit of mother's day, make sure to leave your mom's best advice she ever gave you (about anything!) in the comments below!

You can enter this giveaway through Rafflecopter now through Sunday, May 12th on any of the participating blogs.  Good luck and Happy Mother's Day to all your mamas.

Triple P Giveaway: Mother's Day Gifts - Jewelry

What never goes out of style and always fits?  Jewelry.  If you are thinking of getting your mother (or other significant women in your life) something along the lines of a say, vacuum.......don't do it.  Not only does Blue Nile have an amazing assortment of gifts for under $100, they are offering one lucky reader this pair of earrings:

Leaf Chandelier Earrings in sterling silver $40

Aside from the classic pearls (which they have for under $100), Blue Nile also has a fun collection of charm bracelets (not just for little girls anymore.)  The best part is, my kids (or The Mr) can get me a new (meaningful) charm every year that I can add to it.  It's not unlike the gift that keeps on giving.....

Sterling Silver Charm Bracelet $49

A few charms to get the bracelet started:

Wedding rings ($39) (the significance should be obvious here,) La Tour Eiffel ($49) for our honeymoon, and the camera ($59) to represent my love of photography.

Blue Nile would also like to offer you all a special discount, good through Mother's Day (don't forget MAY 12th!)  Use code MOMGIFT13 to receive 10% off your purchase of fine jewelry today (order soon for delivery before Mother's Day!)
