Sweet Saturday: July 13, 2013

It is a gorgeous Sweet Saturday in Olympia, Washington.  Hope you are enjoying some sunshine wherever you are!  The winner of last week's Sweet Saturday is Ericka B.  We will be donating $50 to the charity of Ericka's choice.  Thanks for recognizing gratitude with us last week.  

This week, we want to recognize all of the celebrations that are happening right now.  Weddings, graduations, birthdays, and more!

We think our lucite, custom pieces are the PERFECT gift for all of these occasions.  (They are shipping fast right now too.)

Go to our Facebook page and "like" your favorite custom piece.  Next Saturday, we will draw a winner who will get to customize the piece just for them.

And if you need a bridesmaid's gift or graduation present, we would love to customize a piece with the colors and name/monogram you need.  (We are loving their new lime and lavender colors.)  Email me for more details.  These pieces are mostly $25-$50, so they are an affordable gift.

We hope you are celebrating the day wherever you are.

Enjoy Sweet Saturday!

Sweet Saturday: June 15, 2013

Today is Sweet Saturday at Bon Lemon.  Allison B. won the Amy necklace in last week's Sweet Saturday.  Congrats Allison!

Today, I am headed to Montana to witness a good friend from law school get married.  Many of you are celebrating your anniversaries or getting ready for your own wedding.  It seemed only fitting this Sweet Saturday be wedding themed.

Today we are asking:  What sparkle would you wear on your wedding day?

These fabulous Caliope Earrings by Extasia feature handmade intaglios and could be your something blue...

The Trifecta Bracelet features 18k vermeil with citrine, amethyst, moonstone, onyx, and aventurine.  Precious indeed!

A cream, swarovski One.Striped.Heart Zinnia Hair Flower could add some whimsy to your big day.

Say yes to the Oui Ring.  Oui!  Oui!

Or maybe you would like the lilac Waterfall Strand Necklace by Konplott in the palest lavendar.  It would look fabulous with a wedding dress.

Whether you are planning your wedding, dreaming of one that is yet to come, or reliving yours from years ago, tell us which sparkle you would wear.  Go to our Facebook page, like your look, and win.  We will draw a winner next Saturday, June 22.  

Sweet Saturday.  Sweet!

4th of July Road Trip

We are on a 4th of July Road Trip. First stop: the farm. Second stop: the lake. Woo hoo! (And I have my trusty wireless port, so I can work on Bon Lemon all the way along.) This is my traveling companion M2. (M1 is at basketball camp.) M2 and I are having fun plotting pranks to play on 6 Par Farmer. Insert mischievous laugh.



6 Par Farmer is our trusty driver. (Because he is so camera shy, we had to tickle him to make him smile for the picture.)



And this is me. A Grayling necklace and earrings are appropriate farm attire, right? The day wouldn't be the same without a little Bon Lemon. Even if I am dressing up for the wheat and the ranch dogs.

Hope everyone is gearing up for the nice weather this weekend. Happy Independence Day (Almost)!

The Perfect Baby Shower/Mama Gift: Chewbeads

My sister has always been one of my best customers. I could count on her to "need" the crazy earrings and big bold necklaces I had for sale at Bon Lemon. Recently, my sister had a baby. Since then, people have been telling her how she won't be able to wear her beautiful Bon Lemon necklaces, because her baby, Maebel, will be putting them in her mouth all the time.



Um, hello people. Did you miss the part about my sister being one of my best customers? You are killing me. This baby v. jewelry dilemma left me in a pickle.



What is a jewelry proprietress to do when many of her customers can't wear their jewelry, because their kids will chew on it? Find jewelry that is meant to be chewed on, of course!

We are excited to introduce our new kid-friendly, chewing encouraged, necklace line: Chewbeads. Chewbeads are awesome because they are both stylish and practical. Here are a few stats:

-Beads are made with 100% silicone (similar to pacifiers & nipples)
-Soft on babies gums and emerging teeth
-Easily cleaned with dish soap & water, also dishwasher safe!
-No BPA, PVC, Phthalates, Cadmium, or Lead
-Necklaces have a breakaway clasp for added safety
-Necklaces are a great sensory tool to help your baby focus while nursing



We have a full spectrum of bright colors on the way. Perfect for your next baby shower gift or your favorite baby mama. Pre-orders are welcome. Although, there might not be any left after my sister gets done...
