“There are no impossible dreams, just our limited perception of what is possible.”
-Beth Conny
Drawing inspiration from her love of family—particularly her children—Claire, of Word 4 Word Design, has created a line of bracelets and pendants that are both outwardly eye-catching and poignantly personal. While her stained-glass pendants were what first launched her business, it’s her word-based line of “express yourself” jewelry that has become the most popular. Accented with encouraging messages to “hope,” “think” and “live” (as well as custom messages of the customer’s choosing), the pieces symbolize Claire’s outlook on life.
Claire made a beautiful Charmed Pendant, especially for me. This pendant is delicately wrapped with silver wire and charmed with a silver charm.
You can choose from any of the following charms to be placed on your very own Charmed Pendant: love, laugh, inspire, imagine, live, love, hope.
Because I need to remember to laugh, I chose the “laugh” charm on a piece Claire made for me.
