Silver Glitter
Housewife Needn't Mean Desperate – Thanks to Handmade Silver Jewllery
You used to have a glittering career… as a copywriter, a lawyer, a doctor...Dressing for work in the morning meant choosing your best handmade silver jewellery: a silver brooch for your lapel, or a silver necklace to complement your white blouse, or a flashy silver and gemstone bracelet to impress your clients. And a company cocktail party or a dinner with clients required you to choose from amongst your best crystal and silver jewellery.
But then you decided to become a mother and stay home for a few years while your children were young. Not an easy choice, and not one ever y woman can make, but one as worthy of esteem as any other choice. Alas, when some hear the words "housewife" or "wife and mother", they think of a woman who never wears any silver jewellery, a woman who trudges around all day in trainers and a sweat suit.
This needn't be the case. Just because you've given up the sartorial demands of the workaday world, doesn't mean you must give up wearing your handmade silver jewellery. Sterling silver jewellery, in particular, is durable and suitable for any occasion – from dumping the trash to attending your child's piano recital. Handmade silver jewellery, with or without gemstones, can be worn in a variety of ways, and with a variety of outfits, to ensure you always look and feel like a lady. Here are some ways the busy stay-at-home Mum can make the most of her handmade silver jewellery collection.
Around the home: True, you're not going to take out your diamonds to hoover the floor or pick up Nigel from crèche. But that doesn't mean you must forswear silver jewellery. Silver post or stud earrings, and perhaps a plain silver ring to complement your wedding band, will remind you that you are still a valued woman, even when you're about mundane tasks.
Representing your family: Whether called to a parent-teacher conference or a meeting of the school parents' association, or off to sign your children up for their annual extracurricular activities, you want to make a good impression. One of the easiest ways to look put together without fussing is by choosing a classic piece of silver jewellery. A silver brooch or a silver charm bracelet is just the thing to offset your blouse or jumper. And any silver jewellery adorned with pearls, no matter how simple its design, will make you look classy.
Enjoying a break: Even the busiest Mum deserves a break – a chance to meet friends over coffee or tea. This is the chance to take out your newer, flashier silver jewellery – like that new silver link necklace, or the silver ring with the big, sparkly gemstone. Or perhaps even take a jaunt with friends to purchase some handmade silver jewellery – a well-deserved treat.
Love is forever: Just because you have children doesn't mean your romantic life should end. Taking time out to be alone with your husband is just as important now as it was before you had children – if not more so. Insist on a "date" night now and then, just for you two – even if it's only to walk hand in hand in the park. And on such an occasion, don't forget to wear the lovely piece of handmade silver jewellery he gave you!
