The Charm Factory Review AND Giveaway!



When I got the chance to review a charm bracelet from The Charm Factory, I was very excited! I love charm bracelets, but I haven't had once since high school! And when I was younger, I LOVED collecting the plastic charms and bracelets. So I've always had a love for them, and what made it even more fun, I got to choose the charms myself, my mom had made my last one.

So, 1st off, choosing the 8 charms was pretty hard, they have such a HUGE selection of charms to choose from! I decided to go with a Mom/Shopping theme, 2 of my favorite things! I chose

1. Birthstone ring for son

2. Birthstone ring for daughter


 3. Love to shop/shopping bag


4. Flip flop w/ swarovski crystals ( I could LIVE in flip flops, if the weather would let me : )

5. November heart charm (My birthstone)

6. Live, Laugh, Love charm

7. Mom charm

8. Good luck horse shoe charm ( Because I'm looking for some good luck to come my way!)

It honestly took me a good hour to pick, I had changed my order at least 3-4 times before I made up my mind! It was so much fun, and the result was so so cute! My 6 year old daughter asked for one the second she saw it, so there's a nice gift from Santa taken care of!
What I really like about The Charm Factory is that these can be made for anyone! From shopping to sports, you can make a bracelet for anyone! Pets, Hobbies, Messages and NOW, Twilight inspired charms!, it's all there for you to choose from, and they are very well made! I seem to get stuck on almost everything that comes my way, and the bracelet has gotten caught a few times, but nothing happened, it's still in one piece and going strong : )


If you are looking for that hard to buy for person, stop over to The Charm Factory and see if you can make up a bracelet for them, I bet you can! The prices are VERY reasonable, most charms are between $3-$5, so you won't break the bank making this cool, original gift!

Here's the best part, one lucky reader is going to win a bracelet of their own! The winner will get to choose 8 charms of their own and have a bracelet put together for themselves! All you have to do is head over to The Charm Factory and let me know a few charms you love! (Mandatory entry)
