Happy Friday everyone! I have a special guest today that I want to introduce you to – Valerie from Origami Owl! If you’re not already familiar with Origami Owl, they are a jewelry company offering highly personalized, meaningful pieces.
I have been inspired by Origami Owl’s lockets because of how they tell stories. My story is a simple one, I am a stay at home mom and part-time dental hygienst.
My locket is filled with a family plate, an April little girl’s birthstone for my daughter, a palm tree for traveling with my extra O2 income, flip flops for the flexibilty that O2 has offered me, and a BF heart for the great people and friendships I have made along the way.
I hope that you too will be inspired by all that Origami Owl has to offer.
Valerie will be offering one lucky reader a living locket of their own from Origami Owl’s line of beautiful and whimsical charms today! Isn’t that awesome??
I fell in love with the Living Locket line, and Valerie sent me one to see what I thought. Want to see how I personalized mine?
I got a silver “A” with crystals, a laptop charm, and Raya’s birthstone. I can’t wait to add more life events and special people (like our little boy – yep, it’s a BOY! – who is due this summer!) Check out the sweet little gift box it came in…
You can keep adding charms to your locket, or you can change the charms to fit your mood or the season! It’s St. Patrick’s Day this weekend, so you could add a bit of Irish luck:
Or you could build a gift for a special occasion for a special friend! Check out this sweet mother-to-be necklace – what a heartfelt shower or hospital gift this would make!
Or you can build your own locket around your hobbies, your faith, your passions, your family – the things that are important to you! There are several styles of lockets, charms, plates and dangles for a one-of-a-kind piece.
If you are falling in love with the possibilities of O2, Valerie is also looking for designers to join her team. You can learn more by visiting the Designer Opportunities page at O2 (just enter ID #18414), check out Valerie’s O2 Facebook Page (be sure to “like” her while you’re there!), or just leave a comment below with any questions you may have!
Are you excited? I sure am! One lucky winner will get their own starter locket! Just enter via the Rafflecopter form below – good luck!

I would have to have a cat charm and flip flops.
Oh my theses are FUN! With 3 teen girls I could and will get lost on their site. Since I’m on a healthier lifestyle journey I would love that pink tennis shoe…what a fun way to be reminded what I’m doing. I’m a silver fan and love the MEDIUM SILVER LOCKET WITH CRYSTALS!! Delish stuff!!! Oh and you and Valerie could be related. Your pics have similar characteristics.

The gold crystal cross charm is my favorite. That combined with the “blessed” plate and a gold locket. My birth month is August so my birthstone is peridot. The reason this means so much is that when I was a baby and was very sick, my grandmother heard the voice of God tell her “Heather is blessed” and had a vision of me walking across a graduation stage. This was after a prayer-chain was sent out world-wide for me after news from the doctors that I would never breathe on my own again and would not live to see high school graduation. Many things have changed since then and I am now almost 30 and married! God bless and thanks for doing this giveaway
What a beautiful story, one of the many reasons I love my job !!!
The faith charm

I wish I understood everything about selling something like O2. I’m so interested but terrified of the business aspect and taxes and not being good enough. Tried hosting a party once and none of my friends were interested. I didn’t understand how you could not be interested! These lockets are so inspirational and so customizable. I love the concept so much. I wish I could own a little bit of everything!
My favorite charm is the Autism Heart
The plumeria flower!
My favorite is the elephant charm!
My favorite birds are Hummingbirds and Owls and the charms for both of them are just gorgeous, definitely my faves.
