This Smile Heart pendant was created by Sharon Borsavage.
I introduced you to the Snowball Surprise event started by Julie Wong Sontag of Uglibeads this past weekend.
A gift I received from Sharon Borsavage was my talisman every day until I had to leave the beautiful heart at home on surgery day. I thought of it though as I sat in my paper gown and continued to smile. Seriously, ask my husband! The love of a friend I've never met made a huge difference at a time I needed it.
Jewelry has a magical quality. It's not like a new pair of shoes, which I love!, it somehow always means more than that. It may mark a special day, be a reminder of the giver, tell one's personal story, or act as a talisman when fears need to be calmed.
The heart she created for me was a reminder to smile and know that someone was thinking of me. I love the juxtaposition between the rustic quality and the sparkly crystals. I will treasure it always. Thank you Sharon!
