A Family Tradition

My children made sand and shell jars for me at the beach one year. They had so much fur collecting the shells and sand they continued each year. So when my grandchildren started going to the beach with Nana and Poppa they continue the tradition of Nana’s sand jars. These are such a loving gift and the hunt for the best sand and sea shells make their little face smile. I call them my sun shine jars made with love.

Where love blossomed

Last March I took my first trip ever to the Florida Keys, and it just happened to be my first vacation ever with my boyfriend. What a spectacular trip it was! When we returned, I happened to notice a Facebook friend of mine had shared an ad for Dune Jewelry; I saw a lovely Sterling Wave Charm that I thought would look beautiful filled with my Key West sand, so I ordered it! It was even prettier in person and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. I wear it every day, and it still reminds me of my very special first trip to the Florida Keys, and it always will!

Keep the beach with you

My story is about the day I got married 12-28-2014 on Sanibel Island. We got married on the beach, couldn’t have been a more beautiful night. During our service, we were asked to fill a jar of shells and sand. It is a most wonderful thing we have to look at and recall that beautiful day. When you live in the mountains and nowhere in sight of beach and sand, it’s awesome to look at a little jar of sand and shells to remember the day. Even better I purchased a Sand Charm of yours at a local store so I can wear my memory everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!!
