Hey y’all! I’m back with Day 6 of Tickle Her Pink—I hope you’ve found some great gift ideas for Valentine’s Day and I encourage you all to enter all of the great giveaways (there’s a link list in my sidebar for easy access).
I’ve mentioned in previous posts my love of jewelry, I especially love finding unique custom jewelry that has is personal and special. When I decided to host a Valentine’s Day gift guide I knew that I wanted to include jewelry, because well it just wouldn’t have been a very good gift guide without bling! So when I was approached by Magpie Designz to do a review and giveaway it was the perfect fit.
For those of you not familiar with Magpie Designz let me give you the rundown on what they are all about. Magpie Designz is an online jewelry store of sorts, though honestly they are so much more. With necklaces, earrings, bracelets, pins and so much more available you will definietly be able to find something (or 2 or 3 somethings) that you love. Here’s a little background on Magpie Designz from their website.
Magpie Designz began in 2008 when I desperately needed a creative outlet to express myself. I have made jewelry ever since I can remember but I wanted to make something that was unique and personal. Along came my personalized jewelry line which has now taken over my life, in a good way of course! I LOVE designing jewelry to compliment anyone, especially moms. I am not a mom myself, however I adore my nieces and nephews like they're my own. It's not like we need any more help bragging about our loved ones, but just in case, my jewelry will give you plenty of bragging practice!
I received the To The Moon and Back necklace from Magpie Designz to review. I chose this necklace because of the saying inscribed on it--“To the Moon and Back”, that’s what I say to my kids when they ask me how much I love them, so this necklace was absolutely perfect for me. I love the worn, weathered look of this necklace and the freshwater pearl hanging from the middle (which represents the moon) is a wonderful touch. Magpie Designz has so many unique pieces of jewelry in their collection and the majority of it can be customized which makes Magpie Designz a great idea for a gift this Valentines Day!
Buy it: You can purchase the To The Moon and Back necklace that I received, and so many others online at Magpie Designz.

**Updated with winner at the bottom**
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I appreciate toy companies that get it right! It is not always easy to find toys that are educational and fun, but I suppose that makes it so rewarding when you find a company whose dedication is to making
sure that their toys are both !
As a review blogger I’ve had the chance to check out many toy companies, and honestly I have found something that I like about each of them; Gl
amma Toys is no exception. From wooden toys to adorable and unique plush toys Glamma Toys has a little something for every child. One of the things I love about this company is that their toys are very unique, American made, creative and fun toys that your child(ren) will adore. Each toy in Glamma’s vast collection is hand selected by the Glamma team to make sure that your child will have a wonderful experience full of cr
eativity, imagination, and fun! In an age where children’s toys all seem to play for your child it is a welcome change to see my children actually playing, imagining, and being creative with a toy.
I had the chance recently to do a review for Glamma Toys, since I was allowed to choose the toy I wanted to review (and trust me that was not an easy decision,as all of the toys on their site are fabulous) I choose something that reminded me of
my childhood. The Superstructs Pinklets Fairy Garden is the toy I chose to review and I have to say that it is one of the cutest I’ve seen so far (think Tinker Toys for girls…so cute). Here is a great description of the Superstructs Pinklets Fairy Garden from the Glamma website:
Creativity Goes Exquisitely "Pink" with The Fairy Garden
Superstructs pinklets are designed for girls and th
e way girls play and build. pinklets embrace the themes young girl builders want with easy to assemble components and just enough structure. Children create charming environments for nearly endless role play and storytelling fun. The magical world of pinklets opens in a beautiful garden that young builders create themselves. The
illustrated Guide helps channel their imagination. The Fair Garden theme comes with 110 pieces that include rods, connectors, wheels, decorative flowers, leaves, fairies and wings. Built on the award-winning Superstructs building system, pinklets can be used in conjunction with other Superstructs pieces and sets and allows for endless play possibilities. “Easy” Difficulty
Rating. For ages 4 years +
