rockabella jewels x valentine's 2009

oh my, it seems like we only just rang in 2009 and in a few blinks will be saying goodbye to the first month of the new year. that means just one thing . . . valentine's day is fast approaching!

for those on the hunt for a pretty surprise, click over to rockabella jewels which is offering gold dipped sunrise shells to woo your lady. beachcombers will be delighted that their own sandy discoveries can be dispatched to rockabella designer kristel bandisch who will transform shells from your private collection into a cherished memento of those grease-y moments in the surf and romantic sunsets shared with your sweetie.

keep in mind there is a two week turnaround so, if you choose to go the send-in-your-own-shell route, feb 7th is the deadline to get your beach find to rockabella's maui studio. even better, that trip to the post office will save you over $100 (price tag of a rockabella original is $200 versus $75 for a custom makeover) which you can spend on additional romancing.
