Shopping for a “family” gift for Mom can be daunting. Everyone has different ideas of what’s right for mom and their own personal tastes. One option to ensure that everyone is represented in a gift is to give a Mother’s jewelry item that contains a representation from everyone in the family. One of a kind gifts such as family bracelet, necklaces, rings and even earrings make a perfect gift for the whole family to give to Mom on her birthday, anniversary or for Christmas or any other special event or day in her life.

Birthstone rings and engraved rings for Mother’s custom jewelry ideas are some of the most popular. There are the traditional types of sets that include Mom’s birthstone surrounded by the birthstones of all the family members in patterns such as center settings, crosses and in rectangular or square shapes. You might also choose to set birthstones into sold or filigree bands for a classic take. Another idea is to have each child pick their own favorite slender band that combined together will provide a totally unique style. Stacking rings can be solid gems, different colored metals, different styles, engraved with the person’s name, birthday or a special message to Mom. With the computerized laser systems available to jewelers there is really no limit on the type of engraving that can be done on even very fine bands. The most popular choice seems to be name rings.

While rings are the most popular choice, pendants can also be designed to represent each member of the family and make wonderful gifts. Like stacking rings, stacking pendants that are added to a chain or a bracelet can allow each member of the family to pick out their own unique gift to Mom that then goes together as a set. Stacking pendants or rings can be worn in a variety of different patterns and orders to give a different look each time.

Sometimes just have the word “Mother” or “Mom” on a pendant or ring is the most cherished choice. These necklaces can also be matched with hoop earrings with the same word or even the same gems or metal for a matching set. Beads can be added to necklaces, bracelets and even earrings to create a one of a kind jewelry item for Mom with each family member represented by a favorite type of style of bead. Being creative will ensure that your gift is original and unique and will be highly treasured for years to come.
