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

Oh my goodness! They have so many amazing things. I really like the victoria band! That website made me lose time faster than the black hole of Facebook!
I love the classic look of the Pure Pave pendant!
I like the delicate stackable rings and would mix gold/silver.

I like simplicity, so I love the polka dot ring
I would probably pick gemstones by the yard necklace with my birthstone. Simple yet pretty.
This is a very nice giveaway.
What a fantastic giveaway! I’d love the Bubble Staking Rings in Sapphire. 🙂 It’s my husband’s birthstone.
I love the Raquel band or the Two Roads Ring! Either would be perfect for a travel wedding band!

I would want to create a necklace for myself 🙂 or buy something my husband would like!
I would love the “Gemstones by the Yard Solitaire Necklace” 4mm style. I have searched & searched for a diamond solitaire necklace just like this, dainty & elegant enough to wear every day, without much luck! I am so excited that I discovered this website via your blog! 🙂

This is an amazing giveaway! My favorite is the liana ring with three gems
What a cool site! I’m loving the gemstone by the yard necklaces–especially with a blue topaz or yellow sapphire stone!
Awesome giveaway! I love the rich and thin band.
Amazing giveaway! Really love the Princess Solitaire Stackable Rings.
I love the Heartbeat Band as a right hand ring. My husband and I are expecting our first baby in February, so the name has a super special meaning and immediately jumped out at me!
This giveaway is amazing! I really like the Pure Pave Pendant because it’s pretty and you could wear often because it’s still simple.

I have been looking at the ‘Liana Ring with Three Gems’ for a while now, but I cannot find the money to purchase it unfortunately. The customization I made is just amazing (in my personal opinion, of course!), and I am in love with it! I would be so happy to get the chance to order this ring!
Thank you!
I would get my beautiful girlfriend the Queen Trio Pendant in white sapphire and amethyst!
There are so many beautiful pieces to choose from! I think my favorite is the wave solitaire pave ring. I customised it with a rose quartz solitaire and white sapphire accent stones with silver metal and it looks gorgeous.
I’d buy the Slim Nine-Gem Band to wear as my wedding ring when I get pregnant again!

I customized this one with me and my two brother’s birthstones and would love to win it to have an amazing Christmas present for my mom this year!
I really like the stackable rings. They’re so fun. I would like to get a white sapphire and a blue sapphire to symbolize my birthday and my husband’s birthday. We couldn’t afford an engagement ring when we got married, so I think they would be a unique alternative.
Great giveaway and so many beautiful pieces from Gemvara! I loved all the necklaces and rings, but think I would choose the pure pavement necklace. It is absolutely gorgeous and looks like it would go with all different types of outfits. Thanks for the giveaway! 🙂
i LOVE the gemstones by the yard solitaire necklace. so simple and pretty!
The Abbey Brilliant Drop earrings are stunning!
If I won the giveaway, I would choose the rich and thin wedding band. My husband and I have been married for almost 8 months and have not purchased a wedding band yet. We were hoping that by our one year anniversary, The Lord would provide for one!
Love the foret me knot band…all their delicate stackable rings are gorgeous though!
The twine band ring is interesting.
The bubble stacking rings, or the eternity pendant in rose gold. Beautiful!
I would choose the diamond GEMSTONES BY THE YARD STUD EARRINGS (4MM GEMS)!
Wow! What an amazingly generous giveaway! I must say the rose gold flamenco ring would be amazing! My sisters pregnant and I think it would be fun to make the main gem her birthstone and the accenting ones the baby girls! (Due in December!)
I would love to add a band to my wedding set with my daughters’ birthstones. The seed and pod eternity band would be perfect!
