I Love all of your items, they are all so beautiful and personal but if I could only choose one I would pick the Edward keytag. The reason for this is because I think it would be perfect to give my husband so he could have it with him when he is away with the army, I would have our childrens names put on it for him.

Everybody wants a piece of jewellery that is so special and precious not to just wear on special occasions but wear everyday. I would choose the " Penny" pendant. It's classic design is timeless and therefore I would give it to my mum. I would then hope in return that one day it would be handed back to me then allowing me to hold it dearly until I'm privileged enough to pass it along. I'm sure it would come with stories and takes that would change over the years to produce laughter and tears. But what's bwetter than a memory placed in your head than to wear it close to your heart. tahnee84@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI would love to give my husband the Henry cufflinks. He does not have a close relationship with his father, and I do not want that repeated with his own son that has just turned 10 months. He could have his sons name close to him every day at work wearing the cufflinks, and then when our son Lachlan is old enough, pass them on from Father to son.

I would love to get a Grace or Victoria pendant for myself as a symbol of the two most important Men in my life...my husband and my 4 year old son. I love them both so much and would love to show everyone that they are always so close to my heart.As a stay at home mum I don't like spending money on myself and have been in love with the Victoria since noticing Jo Griggs wearing her silver one.christeeng@bigpond.com
ReplyDeleteI would to give the Mia pendant to my Mother. She has raised my two sisters and I as a single Mum, always working so hard. I couldn't of asked of a better Mum who has always being there for me. She has especially being such a suppport since the birth of my own beautiful daughter, almost one year ago. I'd love the Mia pendant to be a heirloom that is one day passed down to my daugther. My email is janestanley01@hotmail.com.
ReplyDeleteI would like to gift a Julia pendant for my mother. With her three childrens names on it. She has done and given up so much for us througout our lives and is now an awesome grandmother giving and loving here grandchildren every day also. I would love to gift it to her so when she wears it she is reminded of the love we all have for her. Email: mj.ajbauer@bigpond.com
ReplyDeleteI would give the Tully bangle to my mum. She lives in Greece for most the year so I don't get to see her very often, and I miss her! I would have my and my two brothers names engraved, so that we are with her all the time. Corny but true!

I simply adore all of your gorgeous items and to pick one...and then who I would give it to is just totally impossible. So, selfishly I am going to look after myself!!!! I ♥ the Audrey, Penny and Mia pendants but I adore how stylish the gorgeous Liesel bangles are. I would have to pick it...of course as a symbol of the two beautiful men/boys (adult and child) in my life. Thanks so much for giving us the chance with this wonderful giveaway....so very very generous.....what an awesome Mother's Day it would be! Email: melfield30@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteTrying to choose just one person to give such a beautiful gift to is hard, but for me there is one stand out, my amazing husband Mat. He has been a rock during this time of change in our family. Our daughter Chloe is now 6 mons old and I couldn't have managed to move so smoothly into my new role as a mum without Mat. He is a hands on father who wants to be involved in every aspect of Chloe's life. He has done the 2am feeds while I was expressing, made my cups of tea while entertaining Chloe when I needed some sleep, and also managed to start his new job. With his new job he now has to wear suits (defiantly a new experience for this previous ICU nurse!), so I would love him to be able to put on his cuff links each day and be reminded of Chloe. He is an amazing man, husband and father, and I am one lucky woman! Email: reid_lisa75@yahoo.com.au
ReplyDeleteWith baby number 2 on the way, the Audrey pendant would make my day. With so many bills to pay, I have little chance of getting one any other way.
ReplyDeleteI love all your products. They're so stylist and great for everyday wear.

My Favourite piece is the Penny Pendant as it can be stamped with up to 46 characters, a perfect fit to add my loved ones names and birth dates. I would give it to ME for Mothers Day as a hard working Mother I deserve it, and it would be a constant reminder that what I hold so close to my heart is worth the long hours of work.

My Mum, like many mums is AMAZING. She has give so much of herself to her children and I would love for her to wear us on her heart on the outside, as she already does on the inside. She always said she put alot of thought into our names and I would love to have them on a koolaman pendant like the AUDREY.

I love my liesel bangle that my husband bought me for my birthday last year with our daughters name and DOB on it. Something to treasure forever!!
ReplyDeleteI have been looking at the henry cufflinks thnking they would be a super duper resssy for the hubby for his 40th is a few months!!!
And I can see myself adding a juila to the collection way too soon!!! Perhaps I will email my husband now! Or etter yet! Tell my mum and she will sneakily suggest to him that'e the perfect FIRST mothers day gift for me!!!
I must also pass this website onto my bro inlaw ;-) as my little sis is pregnant with her first (my little niece is on the way!)
I would LOVE to win my mum the Audrey Pendant stamped with my new son's name on it. I have a 3 month old little boy who is the first grandchild on both sides of the family and very loved by his parents and grandparents. My lovely husband has bought me an Audrey pendant stamped with his name for my very first Mother's Day and I would love to give my Mum a matching one. She lives a few hours away so doesn't get to see him all that often, but I know she thinks about us all the time and it would be a very special gift to have his name near her heart everyday.

I love my "isobel" pendant and chain that, but it has lost its shine after my darling nephew spilled nail polish on it. I rarely do things for myself, but purchasing one of your pendants with my children's names to keep close was one. Your products are devine, and I would love to replace my necklace that I wear all the time.

I would love to give my mum the AUDREY pendant. She is my rock. We have become so close since I had my little boy almost 2 years ago. She has recently become a full time carer for her own mum (my grandmother), which is the hardest job in the the world. I now realise how wonderful a close relationship with your mum can be. I think she deserves a little treat!

Girls you are so talented. My mother and I love all of them. My grandmother is who I would give this prize to. My mother has five children, I'm the oldest at 29 and my baby brother is just 11 years old. My Nan has been such big help to our family that we would do anything for her. To be able to put all of our names on this Jewelry for Nan would make her so proud to wear it. Thank you very much Kellie

I would choose the Catherine, umm... For myself. Lol. It is such a beautiful piece. Timeless. Something I could wear everyday with pride, with my daughters names. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteCassie_booth@yahoo.com
I have been salivating over your Mia pendant for 2 years now, but as the mother of a toddler, a teen and two in between I never seem able to afford it. So yes I would give it to myself because I think we also deserve to be appreciated for the effort we mothers put in!! <3. robinoregan@yahoo.com.au
ReplyDeleteI love your Liesel bracelet and would love to get one just for me with my hubby's and my names engraved on it. A little selfish of me maybe but as I look after our 4 children each day I think they already have enough. Then I would love to pass the bracelet on to my youngest daughter as a keepsake that she can pass on as well. My oldest already will have my engagement ring and my middle daughter will have my Mia pendant. Who knows, when they are 18 I would love to be able to purchase them all their own piece of Koolaman Designs, including my son. Your pieces are gorgeous and I always get compliments on my Mia. Thanks for running a wonderful competition. Xxx. Kelly@willonet.id.au
ReplyDeleteI would get the Finn dogtags for my partner. Now fiance. He's ex Navy, but still wears his tags every day - I think not for his own sake, but because the chain also has the tags of his great-grandfather and his grandad. His Dad has his own set, and wears them too.
ReplyDeleteHe proposed to me three weeks ago, and asked me how I felt about him adopting my son Matthew. It's a really huge and important decision for all of us. I'd love to get him tags made with Matthew's name on them, and Matt's new last name, to wear and show each other that they're really family now, forever.
God, I'm all teary now. Anyway, my email is taliana42@hotmail.com

My beautiful and strong friend recently lost her mother to cancer. She was there for her mum every step of the way, and the loss has been devestating for her. She is putting on a very brave face while trying to organise her wedding, but her pain at knowing that her mother, her very best friend, wont be there, is at times overwhelming. I would love her to have the Charlotte necklace from the Silver Seeds collection, stamped with her mother's name, to wear close to her heart on her special day. It would be something she could wear forever, and hopefully it will remind her that while she may feel really alone right now, she has friends that grieve her loss, and care deeply for her. My email is karen.m.marshall@gmail.com. Thank you for running this generous competition.
ReplyDeleteHello Ladies,
ReplyDeleteI would love to gift the Liesel Bracelet to myself from my daughter for mothers day of course. I am a single mother and feel a need a nice gift, other than the beautiful self made cards I receive from my 4yo of course. Ella was clever enough to hop on line and purchase me the Kate pendant two years ago (she's very clever) for mother day and I love it and wear it almost every day. I always receive comments on the pendant. It is beautiful. My contact details are janettemannion@hotmail.com
Thank You
Janette
I would love the Ma ma dog tags for my gorgeous husband. He is my rock. We have four beautiful boys. Our twins were born prematurely late last year and my hubby was so fabulous he balanced our two older boys, bonding with our new babies, work, the house and chauffeuring me to and from the hospital to see our twins. I know how physically and emotionally exhausted he was but he never complained and always put me and our children first. I consider myself so blessed to have him in my life.

The Liesel Bangle - I simply love love love it and admit I have covetted it for ages. Due to this strong desire to own one, I would have to choose to give it to myself this mothers day. Too often as mothers we neglect ourselves and I think it's about time we spoiled ourselves more often!! So this is my spoil piece and would compliment my existing Koolaman necklace like only an original Koolaman piece could. Michelle C
ReplyDeleteI've been looking at koolaman jewellery for a few years now, and I think the reason I still don't own any of your elegant items, is that it is dreadfully hard to pick just one piece! I'd love to claim the Ivy necklace as my own: it is stunningly simple, yet beautiful; it's 'childproof'(no jagged edges and would withstand tugging), but also tactile for me, as I love playing with my jewellery. I could also add pendants for all my living and angel babies - something that reminds me of why I'm a Mum.
DeleteAntonia - arollo77@hotmail.com
I would love the Grace pendant with both of my son's names on it as a gift from them on Mother's Day. Its such a beautiful pendant and wearing the pendant close to my heart would mean so much!!
ReplyDeleteI also love the Victoria pendant too and I would give this one to my mum with mine & my brothers name on it for Mother's Day. It also makes me smile when I think of 'Victoria' as my grandma will call my mum Victoria when she is in trouble lol. candy3181@hotmail.com
A very close friend of mine has a son with special needs and has recently separated from her husband.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be able to surprise her with the MaMa pendant on a 45cm Large Ball chain as she doesn't have anyone in her life right now to spoil her.
With mothers day coming up I think being able to give this to her from her son would make her world a brighter place! Megan - ameliads@bigpond.com
I would love the Audrey pendant with the names of my three beautiful kids on it.

I would get the Edward keychain for my cousin. His wife is my best friend and the two of them are going through the most awful time. His wife already has a necklace (not sure which one) with both of their daughters names and dob's on it, but the keyring would be great for him. Their two girls have been diagnosed with a rare form of leukodystrophy. The oldest girl is just short of her 3rd birthday and has digressed to the point she needs full time care and will pass away very soon, their youhgest daughter is only 12 weeks old and is having a bone marrow transplant in the next month in an attempt to slow the disease process down. It is heart breaking to know that their is nothing we can do for the girls.

I would love to get for my wife the Amelia Bracelet, she is in love with the complete Koolamon design collection.
ReplyDeleteI purchased a Mia Pendant for her birthday earlier this year which she has worn every day since. I'm sure our three beautiful children would love to pass this gift onto their mother on mothers day.
I love the 'Grace' in gold. I would love to give it to my mum with mine and my brothers' name on it. It would be special for both of us as we lost my brother 5 years ago. I know she would love it because she is such a proud mum of her kids and she loves gold jewellery! My Mum is my inspiration for being a loving mother to my own kids.
ReplyDeleteklo.34@hotmail.com
The Audrey pendant is beautiful, elegant and each one a statement on its own. My mum is all of these things as well as an inspiration to me and many others. It's not often these days that we pause to admire or acknowledge amazing people in our lives and for me mum is one. I would have inscribed on the pendant, you've given me life, love and laughter xxx
ReplyDeleteannette.hickson@hotmail.com
It is hard to choose a favourite but I do love the Liesel bangle, it is stylish and elegant and would be lovely reminder of the biggest joys of my world. My husband had the kids names tattooed as his symbol of love and this would be mine.xx trudee_@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteThe Audrey pendant would be just perfect for my special mum. She is dealing with her husband (my dad) battling cancer, her mother (my nan) in ill health, and still offering to look after my two boys when I return to work shortly. She is an amazing woman full of strength and courage, like a lot of our mums, and I don't know what I'd do without her. The Audrey pendant would match the special one they got me last year when we completed our family.

The Amelia Silver Seeds bracelet with The Ruby Silver pendant would be a perfect reminder of the continuity of love I have for my mum. Each seed represents a memory, a moment in time, whether it be a small seed or a big seed, it all shapes and connects to create a link of love.

MIA pendant. I have always loved and admired it on Joh Griggs oh BHG. I adore how it is a timeless piece of jewelry. It matches everything she wears. Timeless is how I love to think of my 2 girls whose name would be on the jewelry, always close to me. I also love the LEISEL as it has beautiful, classic clean lines. Love, love, love. Again a timeless piece.

I love the Audrey pendant and have been eyeing them off for some time for myself. I’ve never been one for “push presents” but with the birth of our twins I know that our family is now complete. I would love to have a simple piece of jewellery which represents the eternal love we have for our three beautiful children.
ReplyDeletekristin.goldfinch@gmail.com
I would choose a Liesel bangle to go with my Audrey Pendant. I wear my Audrey every day and it is one of my most treasured possessions. When I first got it I thought it was too small and you were so lovely and offered to exchange it which was just fabulous customer service. I am so glad I kept the original, I just love it. I frequently get comments about it, and more and more of my friends have pieces now too. Congratulations on the new rose gold range, that is proving to be very popular round here.

I'd love the Audrey pendant for my mum in memory of her beautiful mother, and my much loved nan. My Nan's name was Audrey, and after a long battle with dementia, she sadly passed away last week. My darling mum cared for her, whilst also making time for almost full time work, and spending as much time as possible with her own kids and first great grandchild. All of this has left little time for "mum" time and I'd love to spoil her and honor her mum's memory at the same time x

All of the pieces are stunning - it was hard to choose just one! However I would choose the catherine pendant for myself as I love that it can include the name of your child with their birth date... but also (more importantly), if more children come along it is easy to add to!
ReplyDeletekandcwiedemann@bigpond.com
Oh my. So many strikingly beautiful pieces. If I was to be so lucky, I'd select the Meg cuff. Clean contemporary lines. Understated elegance.

ReplyDeleteI selflessly directed my brother-in-law straight to Meg, knowing that my dear sister would think he was the world's best husband if he presented her with such a stunning piece of jewelry that commemorated the birth of their brand new baby girl, Lila Cate. I've been in love with Koolaman Designs for some time now and would love it if someone (I.e husband) had presented me with on of your treasures with my beautiful little boy's name on it. So I took it upon myself to send my bro in law the link to Meg, and the deal has been made. I'm even letting him claim the idea as his own. She's getting Meg and frankly I'm really, really jealous. So, long story short, I want Meg too, with my little joy's name on it. Then when I win, I'll give Liesel to our Mum with her daughters names, and grandchildren's names handstamped. What could be more lovely than 3 proud Mums and a Nanna sporting stunning Koolaman designs around town. We be a walking marketing campaign for Koolaman! thanks ladies x
ReplyDeleteHello ladies,
ReplyDeleteI recently was on school holidays and spent many hours 'researching' on your website. I finally settled on the Isabel pendant for Mother's Day. It arrived in the mail last week and I am in love! I was a bit nervous when I picked it up from the post office...ordering on the net but alas no need to worry! It was perfect. Although I am rapt with Isobel my favourite piece would have to be Grace...it is on my long, long term wish list! My students would love you to comment on our blog:

P.S. Love the ads on the Bendigo telly.
I'm going to be selfish and say the Chloe...For me! I was lucky enough to have one gifted to me on the birth of my first son. But my second son hasn't been stamped yet.... Long overdue as he's almost 2! With my third son on the way this prize would be such a blessing! I hate not having my most precious peeps close to me, so winning this means I have the perfect excuse to wear them close at all times x

Hi, I love all the designs but I would just adore an Audrey pendant. It would be the perfect thing to commemorate the birth of my first son, who is due on the 14th of May (although of course I'm hoping he will surprise us and come early on Mother's day!) We haven't yet made the final decision on a name so who knows what could end up being stamped. The little fella is kicking up a storm, so maybe David Beckham? Or perhaps Jackie Chan? :)

Carolyn (cazzbah@hotmail.com)
All the designs are stunning but if I had to choose one, I would pick the Ma Ma pendant. Since my daughter was born 2 years ago, we have started a mother's day tradition of adding a charm to a charm bracelet every year which I will then give her when she turns 21. Now I am pregnant with a baby boy and we have been wondering what tradition we could start for him. A Ma Ma pendant with each of our family members' names stamped on it would be a gorgeous and loved gift for myself first, and then to pass down to him when he is older. Treasured family momentos forever in their lives even when I am not.

I love the liesel bangle- I would give it to my darling mum!
ReplyDeleteteahprice@hotmail.com
Hmmm... to choose a favourite design? That's like asking me to choose my favourite chocolate! The answer is all of them LOL! But if I had to choose one and only one, I wouldn't be able to do that, they are all unique in their own rights. But if I had to pick some designs that I really like, the winners would be the Meg bangle, Julia pendant, Alice pendant, and the Liesel bangle (my favourite by just a smidge). I would probably give the gift to my Mum, she is selfless and does so much for other people and rarely does anything for herself or buy herself anything special. She is my inspiration for entering :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck to everyone and Congrats to the winner! :)

I would love to get the Leisel Bangle for myself to match my other koolaman necklace. It is amazing how many people ask me in the street or @ work and specially kindy where 3 people from the kindy have purchased items since they have seen mine. I would love to give my son's teacher a piece of your collection as a gift. She absolutely loves mine and comments all the time how beautiful it is. She has really helped me and my son with issues he has with his learning and giving her a gift like this would be fantastic.

Firstly I have had pendant envy for over two years!! If I had to choose one item it would be the Finn tag for my darling husband. Since our youngest son was born nearly two years ago my husband has been through a really rough time. He had a stroke when our baby was three months old he has recovered well but unfortunately he was recently diagnosed with thyroid cancer. He feels like he has the worst luck and I think that the fin tag would cheer him up and make him smile! I know it's not fathers day but it would make my day to see him happy! mezmccaffrey@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI would love for my husband and children to get me the Amelia silver seeds necklace and bracelet with the ruby pendant. The large beads on a necklace/bracelet and a round pendant are a full circle and I think really represents a family unit. Plus I already have the Mia pendant and have had comments from the first day I was given it from my sister. I would love to have a set that stands out more for special occasions and my MIa for everyday (i never take it off except for netball!!)

One to rival the flowers and the slippers for sure,
Could a mummy possibly ever ask for anything more?

I'm going to be selfish and wish the Audrey pendant for myself - I'm 41 and have just had my first baby after 3 terrible years of misfortune. Am so thrilled to rediscover what love is all about! I work in operating theatres so would love something I never need to remove, so can be reminded of my gorgeous boy every minute of every day. juleshearn@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteMy favourite piece I would be “Grace” pendant, I would like to give it to my mum (with her 5 children's names) because all that I am and all that I desire in my life comes from the passion, love, humour, and dedication that I experienced from her. She has given so much to her family, sacrifices and an abundance of love. She has taught me how to laugh, have fun, enjoy life, dream big, and show compassion for everyone that I love. I would like to say thank you and give her something in return that would be close to her heart.

I would choose the Finn dog tag for my beautiful husband. He deserves something special as before Christmas he was diagnosed with lung cancer at the age of 49. He has undergone successful surgery to remove part of his lung and is recovering slowly but finding it hard to cope with the big "C" word. I'd love to get him this with both our names on it for our Anniversary which is the 8th May. That way he would know I was always close to his heart.
ReplyDeleteWe were trying for a baby before this news hit us like a truck and so with some better luck, later down the track, maybe I would be able to add another Finn dog tag that represented new life and new beginnings!

I would love the Millie pendant for myself, it would not only hold my childrens names near & dear to my heart but the pendant is of the same name as my mum who is sadly no longer here with us.

I would love to give my mum the Mai pendant with her 4 childrens names.
ReplyDeleteMy mum lost my brother 2 months ago to cancer (her oldest son)
My mum has diamonds pearls gold
it would be a nice every day piece of jewellery for her to wear
to remember the circle of love we have for her even thu Glenn is not with us now.

I'd love to get the Julia stamped with my husbands name and the date of our wedding, to match the Isobel I already have with our children's names. As a stay at home Mum, I often don't wear my wedding or engagement rings, so it would be lovely to have something like this to wear (I never take my Isobel off). As the children are still young, any mother's day presents are from hubby anyway, may as well make it from the heart.

I would love to get an AUDREY pendant for my Mum, as I already own one and she admires it each and everytime I see her. I would have all her grandkids names put on it.

I would love to win this pendant, I'd give it to my Mum. Since my daughter Hattie arrived 8 months ago she has been such a fabulous help - I would love to be able to say thanks with such a beautiful piece. I have a ma ma tag with chain with my Daughter's name on it. It was a gift from my cousin & I just adore & treasure it. I think my new favorite will be the leather collection & cannot wait to see it!

I met Stacey and lisa tonight in corowa and was with my mum. She absolutely loves to Audrey pendant. I would love to win the pendant for her because she has been through so much, we lost my brother (her son) two years ago unexpectedly and has still been strong for me and my two younger siblings. She does so much for everyone in the community and deserves to be spoilt!! Please choose my mum for these gifts :)

I would love my 18 year old daughter to win this as she has been such a good help with my two younger children for the past two years since my beautiful son passed away unexpectedly. She was in the middle of year 11 and just about to start her HSC but she always found time to be with them whilst I was slowly falling apart inside. She is always putting others before herself and she so deserves to have something beautiful for her just like she is. I have just bought a necklace and she was admiring it and I would have loved to get one for her as well. Please choose her to win this package so everyone else will know that she is loved so much. :)

I love all your beautiful pieces they are all personal. I would give the Audrey pendent to my mum, she has being thru alot this last year. She lost her best friend, "her mum" which makes me think how lucky, am I to have a mum who is always by my side there to lend a helping hand. Can not think of how my life would be like if she was not around. dascogirl@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThe Liesel is beautiful in it's simplicity. It's clean lines, easy wear style is perfect for all-the-time wear. I'd love this stamped with my daughter and hubby's initials.
ReplyDeleteMy neighbour, Dawn's, kindness, compassion, and carefree spirit, belies her grief from losing a number of friends and family members within the last five years.
ReplyDeleteI would to receive the Amy girls bracelet with the daisy pendant for my daughter (4yr) who is already a strong and independent girl with a smile that would melt any heart.
ReplyDeleteThis time two years ago my normally clueless in the present department :) husband surprised me with 2 Millie pendants (my absolute fav) one for each of our boys .... they are the first and last item I put on and take off each day! Now as much as I adore my boys I'm excited to say Hip Hip Hooray I can order my 3rd Millie today! bearing the name of our much awaited daughter :D Thank you Koolaman Designs for blessing me with my most precious material possessions! The items in this amazing gift I would treasure for my baby girl for when she is old enough to wear them Xx Kylie Murray jettjace@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI've wanted a piece from Koolaman Designs for so long now. As much as I'd love a pendant, I think my first purchase would have to be the EVE earrings, so that I could pass them onto my daughter Eve, when she's old enough to get her ears pierced. What a gorgeous family heirloom they could become and so special. Robyn ( rhutchins36@gmail.com )
ReplyDeleteFirstly, thank you for your glorious inspirational designs.
ReplyDeleteHaving just spent many hours researching your website I concluded the AUDREY PENDANT was what I needed the most, I am excitedly awaiting delivery...
Now I would dearly love to give the AUDREY PENDANT to my mother, it would carry all of her grandchildren's names perfectly.
The ELLA earrings would look divine on my 13yr old Anna.
My beautiful 11yr old Kate has already requested a LIESEL BRACELET of her own.
The complete perfect package to say I love you to the most important people in my life. - Melissa -

DeleteCharlie would have to be my first choice as it is unique and one of a kind just like our beautiful little girl Willow,who i would love to give it to,my family and i live in a town where same sex partners are looked upon as different or maybe even "unique" to some,Just the same as your line of jewellery it shines through with its beauty..My Alice is already order,I cant wait to show it off. sunshine09@exemail.com.au
ReplyDeleteThe beautiful 'Liesel' bracelet has that classic style,
ReplyDeleteThat other Koolaman designs celebrate, too,
Even recalling a character from 'The Sound Of Music',
"You are 16 going on 17, I'll take care of you..."
How lovely to be that innocent again,
Naive and believing in dreams...
Just like my beautiful daughter,
Dancing beneath rainbows and amidst moon beams...
There is nothing like personalized jewellery,
Seeing the names you love most on something that will last...
Just like the laughter of our precious children,
That lingers forever in our hearts, stead-fast...
I would give this bracelet to my daughter,
As a symbol of love and to create a memory,
So that one day, she could trace a finger over her name,
And feel the love passed down from me...

Such a tough call, girls as all of your designs are exquisite and so personal! I am fortunate enough to already have a Ruby pendant with my daughters name (Poppy) on it. My intention is to hand that onto Poppy oneday. When our next bub comes along, hubby has already had hints dropped (subtly, of course!) that if I was to receive a silver seeds Olivia necklace with Ruby pendant then I would not be
ReplyDeletedisappointed at all :) That way that child will have the necklace & pendant handed down to them too! The next generation can get as much enjoyment from your pieces as I do!

I love the Audrey pendant and would give it to my sister-in-law so she could put her 2 beautiful daughters' names on it.

I love the MEG cuff bangle. Today is my Mum's (MARGARET - MEG),
ReplyDeletebirthday. She passed away last May very quickly from ovarian cancer. This Mother's Day will be the first one without her. She was the best Mum and a beautiful Nan to my daughter Annie. I would love to have the MEG bangle with my Mum's, mine and my daughter's name on it.

DeleteMy name is Dylan and I am 14 years old, I would like to win an Audrey pendant for my mum. She is always talking about your jewellary but always puts mine and my brothers and sisters needs first and never has money left to buy one. I think it would be nice to surprise her with one for mothers day instead of slippers like every year! Thank you

DeleteThe AUDREY Pendant is beautiful. I have 3 beautiful children, which i treasure each day and am so blessed with- but being a mum comes with the territory of heartache, disappointment, discipline and the roller coaster of life as we work together as a family.So many people don't even have the opportunity to have a family to love, or children to birth and hold (sentimental to people in my life at the moment) so each time I to go to complain about my children or when i feel i am getting nowhere with them- i will hold onto my pendant and remember that i am blessed to just be able to ride this life with them...

ReplyDeleteThe Alice pendant as that was my Great Grandma's name and she was such a special lady. I cant wait to recieve it, (my shout for mothers day, aswell as being a single mum, I have to buy my own present lol), but if I won I would give the Audrey pendant to my sister who I dont see much as she lives in Darwin and I'm in Vic, just because she is my sister and I love her
ReplyDeleteohhh to chose only one is very difficult indeed!!
ReplyDeleteHowever, the beautiful Liesel silver bangle is something all mothers need.
If i could I would give one each to my two sisters and my mum,
Everyone deserves beautiful things that sparkle in the sun.
I love the design, its elegant and fun with style,
Oh, and if it would be mine, well oh, wouldnt it make me smile.

My favourite piece is the Grace pendant. I have a special May ahead with both mothers' day and my 40th birthday to celebrate and I just love the style and simplicity of the Grace pendant and would treasure having the names of our lovely three sons always close to me (a way of me holding on to them when they are growing up so fast!). However, I think everyone will agree with me that all the Koolaman items are tasteful, stylish and would be teasured by any mum, young or old alike.
ReplyDeleteThe Penny Pendant looks so great,
ReplyDeletePerfect for my dear mate,
But the “Grace” pendant, also is desired,
Either one both are truly admired.

The Kate pendant (chosen with great affection)
ReplyDeleteIs my favourite piece from your collection!!
It is elegant, stylish and petite,
Endearing and sweet,
And would make the perfect Mother’s Day treat!
My best friend is soon to be a first time mother
And your Mother’s Day pack would be a gift like no other!
A beautiful keepsake worn near the heart,
For all to admire, right from the start!
A stunning gift to treasure…
A gorgeous set that brings pleasure!
Even though I have longed for a Koolaman for a great while -
(A keepsake for myself I do so desire!);
Sometimes in life it’s better not to receive, but to give
And to do it freely, devoid of motive.
For friends and family are ultimately what matters if life,
Not all the other distractions that can lead us to strife!
But now I am beginning to digress
(I forget that sometimes it’s best to say less!);
In the end, your chosen winner will be rewarded,
With this precious gift you have awarded!

I love all your items. The one I love the most would have to be "Penny" I would give to a very special lady...My Mum. We lost my Dad nearly a year ago and this would keep him closer to her heart. :) she's the best Mum ever.
ReplyDeleteI would love the Audrey pendant with my three daughters names on it. I had one daughter and then twin girls who were born 8 and half weeks early and the time we spent in hospital with all the sick children around us makes me cherish every day I have with healthy, happy children. That was 14 years ago and every day is a blessing. It is lovely to think I could have wear their names close to my heart every day. I find your jewellry to perfect to wear both everyday and dressed up to wear out. It seems like these pendants are the modern version of the locket. I'm sure my children will get a buzz out of seeing their names on my jewellry every day. Cheers.Tracie

ReplyDeleteSorry forgot to add it to above post
Just wondering who the luck winner of the Koolaman Designs Mothers Day pack is? x
ReplyDeleteAs you can see it's been a while since we've been visiting the koolaman blog! Sorry!!!! We'd missed announcing the winner of the Mother's Day Giveaway and to make up for it, we're giving away TWO 2 Mother's Day Prize Packs!!!
ReplyDeleteThe lucky winners were Kate and Sheree! See post 31/7/12.
Thank you for entering and for the Father's Day Giveaway which is coming up soon, we'll make sure we announce it on time :)
Thank you for participating! Lisa & Stacey xx
I Love all of your items, they are all so beautiful and personal but if I could only choose one I would pick the Designer Bangles. The reason for this is because I think it would be perfect to give my mother so he could have it with her.
