A couple of weeks ago, I received an email from Gemvara offering me the opportunity to host a $1,000 giveaway. Yep, one PBF reader will win a $1,000 credit to Gemvara, a company that offers handcrafted, customizable jewelry featuring more than 20 different natural gemstones and nine precious metals. Awesome, right!?
(Delicate Star Pendant // Moon and Star Pendant)
Gemvara allows you to completely customize everything from rings and necklaces to bracelets and charms. And the entire customization process is a breeze!
Step one: Select any button from the drop down menu.
Step two: Select the specific piece of jewelry you’d like to customize. (This is the Gemstones By The Yard Solitaire Necklace in rose gold with a rose quartz 6.5mm gem.)
Step three: Select the gemstone and metal of your choice. Easy peasy! (I changed the necklace to have a 14K yellow gold chain and a white sapphire gem.)
Gemvara sent me a few loaner pieces to showcase and I had fun wearing them out and about to brunch last weekend!

In exchange for hosting this giveaway, Gemvara was kind enough to offer me the opportunity to create my own piece of jewelry and I decided to use the credit to create a replacement wedding band as a surprise for Ryan!
As you may remember, Ryan lost his wedding ring in the lake when we were swimming last month and immediately ordered himself a $30 replacement ring, telling me he didn’t need a nice replacement. I always knew I wanted to replace his ring so he could have a nice ring to wear on his ring finger again, so this seemed like the perfect chance to surprise him with a ring that I tried my best to make look like his original wedding band.
I selected the satin finish rise band and when I gave it to Ryan, he was shocked and incredibly excited. We both absolutely love the band. It shipped super fast and I felt comfortable taking a chance on the sizing since I knew I had 101 days to return the ring for free. (FYI, Gemvara’s 101 day return policy also applies to engraved jewelry.)
Now here is your chance to win a $1,000 credit to Gemvara so you can customize a piece of jewelry or select one the stunning pieces of jewelry Gemvara has on their site already!
Gemstones By The Yard Solitaire Necklace // Rich & Thin Band // Infinity Gem Disc Charm // Gemstones By The Yard Stacking Ring Set // Halo Earrings // Pave By the Yard Cross Bracelet

LOVE the primrose ring!
In a non-trad move, after spending the weekend with my extended family, I’d probably donate the money to my boyfriend, then hint heavily at the Ivy Collection Six-Prong Round-Cut Ring so he could finally get them off his back! 😉
Love the embrace ring! So pretty!
I love the wishbone pendant !
wow, this is such a generous giveaway! i would love that start pendant (http://www.gemvara.com/jewelry/delicate-star-pendant/round-white-sapphire-sterling-silver-necklace/fk34x). i love simple pendants like that
I absolutely LOVE the Adele Ring. When My husband and I got married last year we had just bought a house and decided we wanted to focus on having the wedding of our dreams (which we did! And I am so glad we decided on it) but to do so we did not do any rings at all because it’s so expensive and he works in a machine shop so any ring really isn’t practical. This would be amazing to win to put towards a little something I could finally have on my finger!
I just love the solitaire necklace, and I would get it with my soon-to-be daughter’s birthstone, which will be Sept or Oct!
The gemstones by the yard stacking ring set is great. I’m such a sucker for a good ring, and I love that they can be worn together or separately.
Im a sucker for anything rose gold however the adele ring is actually the one that caught my eye first! I would probably make a few adjustments and change the black diamond to an onyx stone 🙂
