Easter, coming as it does in early spring, is a celebration of rebirth, complete with the colors of flowers and sunshine. What better way to commemorate this wonderful time of year than with glittering gold rings and necklaces or ceramic ladybug and butterfly earrings?

The quick delicacy of the dragonfly is captured in a pair of children's 14 kt gold hand enameled earrings. Look for the detailing of blue points of enamel along the body and at the wingtips. This is a unique Easter gift for a special little girl.

Of course, ladybugs are a favorite of kids and adults alike. In fact, they’re liked so well in Britain that they’re called ladybirds (Abigail thinks ‘bird’ sounds ever so much nicer than ‘bug’).

Besides our always popular ravishing red ladybird earrings, we’re offering enameled ladybug earrings pretty in pink with black dots and head this Easter season. You can also choose the pink ladybug earrings with eggshell white dots and head.

If (understandably) you simply can’t decide between the sets of earrings, we’ll help you! Just buy them all--you can, you know. Not only do we have competitive best buy prices every day, but we also give free ground shipping, plus free gift cards and free jewelry boxes with every jewelry purchase. As our special Easter gift to you we’re also offering 10% off on every Easter purchase of $80 or more.

So, go ahead. Buy it all and celebrate Easter (along with your savings).

Easter is fast approaching, with Easter Sunday falling on April 8th this year. Where does the time go? It’s time to start thinking about bunnies and chocolates, colored eggs and baskets.

Easter is a religious holiday, one of the oldest and most important for Christians around the world, and our jewelry designs honor the holy day with pieces like this 14kt gold Easter Ring for older children and teens. If you click on our site’s image magnifier, you can examine the details for yourself: the prominent cross raised dead center; the heart embraced by ovals which (says Abigail) look like little Easter eggs!

If you’d rather stick with the bunnies, you’ll be hard-pressed to find anything cuter than these 14 kt gold enameled Easter Bunny Rabbit Earrings for children. The earrings have safety screw backs, so that they’re as comfortable for your child to wear as they are pretty.

A gift of jewelry lets you celebrate Easter in so many ways: from heartfelt beliefs to the sheer joy of childhood. And, look mom! No cavities!

Don’t forget baby when celebrating this holiday of friendship and love. A set of sparkling earrings always sets off chubby cheeks sweetly, and the red heart earrings (whether ruby or enamel) add a warm glow of bright color.

She may not know (yet) about the significance of the rings, earrings, bracelets or pendants she’s wearing, but she’ll have visual proof of how much you doted on her when she starts looking at her own baby photos and videos in just a couple of years from now.

If you’re a first time parent, here’s some free advice: babies are total narcissists (and I mean that in a good way). There’s no better form of entertainment for them than to watch videos of themselves - especially when they’re young toddlers and looking back at the “good old days” - when they were babies.

Try it yourself. Prop up an unbreakable mirror in front of your baby. Betcha she’ll be fascinated by the glittering gems in her ears!

It’s all very good to talk about buying Valentine’s Day presents for the kids - but with simple toys running into the hundreds of dollars, gift-giving can get prohibitively expensive.

Do a little comparison, if you will. What other gift is (1) a physical indication of your love and affection; (2) can be used every day (no matter the season); and (3) lasts pretty much forever? Try some jewelry on for size.

At less than $25,for instance, you can indulge your daughter (and keep your finances happy) with a lovely present of 14K gold shaped hook earrings with three dangling multicolor heart-shaped cubic zirconium stones. There’s even free shipping offered at Abigail’s Place, putting more cash back in your pocket.

Now that’s a Valentine’s Day gift idea that can really warm your heart!

The stuffed bears get ratty and ignored; the life-like baby dolls wear out and break. What’s a parent to do? Seems like we’re constantly buying presents for our children that have no real lasting value - are we teaching them anything more than immediate gratification with no staying power?

Well, with children’s jewelry, you know you’re getting something that will be valuable forever - not only in terms of money, but also because of the meaning and emotion invested in the gift itself.

How does a pair of earrings become priceless? Sentiment plays a large part. A little girl’s bracelet or heart-shaped earrings from her daddy is a ‘forever treasure’. And there’s no reason why you can’t tell your daughter that maybe - if she takes care of the ring - her own child can someday wear it too.

Delight your children (and teach them something!) with the gift of jewelry.

When looking for another unique and affordable gift for your child or for your children to give to friends this Valentine’s Day, try a keepsake ornament.

For example, this lovely “Key to My Heart” hanging has the sweet sentiment of the day (perfect for a teenage girl or boy) and is detailed to the point that even the padlock is shaped like a heart. As a matter of fact, this present is certainly not limited to a certain age group - it would definitely be an appropriate gift to a husband or wife.

The Greeting Card Association has come up with some interesting figures regarding Valentine’s Day.

According to the their website and a 2004 poll (called The Emotional State of the Union survey), Americans send or give 7 billion cards a year, with Valentine’s Day being the second most popular card-sending holiday. (Christmas is the most popular.)

Worldwide, some one billion valentines are sent annually. Not surprisingly, women are the engine behind this buying trend, and the association estimates they buy the majority (85%) of all valentines.

The so-called Hallmark Holiday, Valentine’s Day has been in existence as a recognized holiday since the Middle Ages. Although culturally adjusted, it also exists as an international Day of Love - even to the point that in Korea, boys and men who don’t get anything for Valentine’s Day group together (to commiserate and eat) on a day called Black Day.

View our Heart Shape Collection for Valentine's Day. We are offering special savings on these heart shaped earrings and pendants.

Layer meaning upon meaning this Valentine’s Day, when you give your girl a heart-shaped amethyst cubic zirconium ring. The purple amethyst has been associated with royalty and imbued with mystical powers of protection since Ancient Egypt.

If your child is an Aquarius and happened to born on February 14th - and most particularly if the day of birth was a Friday - then this birthstone is a perfect gift, whether it be in the form of a ring, earring, bracelet or pendant.

As an added touch, why not order a personalized ceramic mini-heart holder? Just the right size to keep her new piece of jewelry safe, the heart shape is another visual reminder of your love for her.

A couple of chocolate kisses inside would make your little Valentine’s Day girl even sweeter than she already is!
