about hope angel bracelets, swarovski crystal & more
Hope Angel Bracelets were 'born' from two people's ideas combining into one.
Those two people: My mother and I.
In the fall of 2009, I started making bracelets for my piano students, (most of them are girls).
When my mother saw what I was doing, she wanted to make bracelets for her choir members. My bracelets were for children, so they were name bracelets and not made of real crystal. My mother, being the music director of a church, wanted something a little more 'grown up'. I'd just gotten the most beautiful, genuine, sparkly swarovski crystal in a multitude of colors and the Tibetan Silver HOPE or BELIEVE angel charms.
With the addition of some split rings to
hold the angels onto the bracelets,
Hope Angel Bracelets were born.
My mother actually designed the first one.
They were a huge hit with my mother's choir
members. They made the perfect Christmas gifts!
Soon, people began asking if they could purchase
one for themselves, to give to a friend,
a sick relative, their daughter, babysitter,
niece, etc.- anyone who could use a little hope.

My mother and I began making them and have been wearing one or more ever since. People have complimented us on the Hope Angel Bracelets numerous times, noticing the 'sparkle' of the swarovski crystal and loving the message of Hope the angel pendant delivers.
"Where can I get one? Do you sell them?"
I've heard this a lot and so has my mother. We feel blessed- and are.
I joined a wonderful, giving community on Facebook called Awesome Women Hub and another called 29 Day Giving Challenge. In the Awesome Women's Hub group, (which by the way, is VERY awesome and if you're a woman and want to be surrounded by AWESOME, inspiring, fabulous, supportive women, please join! You have to be a member of Facebook and simply join. Robin Rice is the founder...another very AWESOME person!) I digress...
I gave away 2 bracelets, one of my books, and my parents instrumental CD as a gift through AWH. I received so much positive feedback on the Hope Angel bracelets...I was floored! I also posted a photo and a giving story on the 29 Day Giving Challenge site and again, was blessed with an incredible amount of wonderful feedback on the bracelets and was asked again, "Where can I get one? Do you sell them?"
Well, I decided I'd be quite foolish not to put my nose to the grindstone, build this website, and get down to some bracelet making! Once I had the site up, I knew I was making committment- to you, to my mother, to myself and to the angels. It was and is a committment I am glad to make.
Some I do by myself. Some my mother does by herself. Some we do together. They are all made with LOVE and HOPE!
My mother and I make a great team and I look forward to the times we'll continue to spend together creating a little more "hope" for you- for the world.
God Bless and thanks for stopping by!
