My niece has reached the age where she is graduating from high school and looking forward to the future. Since she is the first and only niece so she really does have a lot of stuff already and I was at a loss as to what would be the best possible gift. A friend asked if I had considered charm bracelets as an option, and it just clicked in my head that this would be a wonderful gift. I looked at some books on charm bracelets and decided that I would make the theme success and the future. I thought the best idea would be to structure the bracelet like the charm bracelets I loved that told a personal story. Instead of starting from her birth, I was going to start from her graduation day. Although I have always loved gold charm bracelets and gold charms, she is more of a silver jewelry person. I think silver charm bracelets are a great match for a younger woman, so this is definitely the way I am going to go. The silver charm bracelet I have in mind is going to start with an actual graduation certificate charm. I am going to engrave the date of her graduation on the back of the charm, and then also right beside it I am going to add a cute little graduation cap charm, complete with tassel. The next charm on the bracelet, which will probably be quite full when I get through, is going to be a key charm. I know which one it will be, a longer skeleton type of key with a small diamond chip in the top. This is to symbolize the key to success which I know that she holds. Like most charm bracelets, I am going to mix and match the charms with regards to styles and sizes to give a balanced look. I know that she really wants to be a veterinarian or to work with animals, and is actually going to be working with an animal shelter over the summer. Adding a cat and a dog charm let her know I think she would be great in this profession is certainly a must. As with most charm bracelets, I am going to also put a few charms on with inspirational sayings. These charms are really important to me as I am going to use her heroes as the sources for the quotes that I choose. Putting together charm bracelets is really a great way to learn about someone. I have such high hopes for my niece and I hope when she sees the gift she understands how much she means to me.
