Win a Bloom necklace from The Women's Bean Project

You've seen me work with the Women's Bean Project before. They're a nonprofit business that employs women who have experienced chronic unemployment, poverty or difficult life situations. They don't just give the money they earn to organizations, they actually hire these women and teach them a skill so they can learn to support themselves. This breaks the cycle of poverty and teaches self sufficiency not reliance on outside sources for your survival.

Today, their offerings include salsa mixes, spice rubs, coffee beans, and jelly beans in addition to their soups and chili, along with gift baskets, baking mixes and much more. I recently had the opportunity to receive one of their beautiful necklaces. I was really impressed with the selection of their handmade jewelry products. They have a beautiful choice of earrings, necklaces and bracelets in a variety of different styles.  You will find something to admire whether your style choice is delicate or bold.

The Bloom necklace is sold as a necklace and earring site on their site.  The stones are multifacited glass beads of varying sizes.    The multifaceted nature of the beads makes this necklace sparkle like diamonds when the light hits the beads. Dangling from the necklace is a pretty antique bronze looking flower that matches the gorgeous clasp at the back.   It can be worn shorter or longer depending on which way you choose to clasp the necklace.

I love the style and elegance of this piece and I love the cause that The Women's Bean Project stands for. I love knowing that they're giving women a chance not only for today but for tomorrow as well.  When you're considering where to purchase your Mother's Day gifts this year, please consider The Women's Bean Project.
