Helzberg Diamonds Mother's Day Pendant {Review & Giveaway}

Helzberg Diamonds logo

I am a firm believer that until a person has children of their own, they simply cannot fully understand the enormity of parenthood.

Sure, you can read books and you can babysit and you can immerse yourself in all things baby; until you look down at your baby in your arms and know, without a doubt, that you will spend the rest of your life loving them beyond all measure, there's just no comparison.

Does that make the sleepless nights, crying and future sassy back-talk any easier? Not really.

Which is why when Mother's Day rolls around each year and you realize everything that your own mother put up with while raising you, it is extra important to express your gratitude and love for her. And what better way to show Mom that you appreciate everything she has done than with a little sparkle from Helzberg Diamonds?

Mother's Day gifts

Mother's Day diamond pendant

Featuring a sterling silver double heart with MOM prominently displayed, this sterling silver diamond pendant is just thing to act as a token of your love and appreciation for Mom not only on Mother's Day, but every day after.

When a small box from Helzberg Diamonds arrived, I was ready to see the beauty of this classic piece in person.

I wish I could say she did it cheerfully, but, I cannot. I felt more like a burden than a blessing. The only thing that makes my Mother's Day happy..is my 3 grown children love me with all their hearts. I love them so much, they gave me a reason to live.

  176. I admire my mothers strength. She was so strong through the last 8 years of her life, struggling with kidney failure. She showed me a side of her that made me honored to call her mom. I miss her so much.
