For my review I received a personalized Sterling Silver Father’s Day Photo Dog Tag, along with an 20inch Sterling Silver Box Chain.
First off, let me say - This necklace was stunning.
As most of you probably know, my grandpa passed away almost a year ago now (July 26th, 2011.) I personally never knew my father.. And I lived with my mom and grandparents my entire life. So I always looked at my grandpa as my father figure. I always got him a gift and a card for Father's Day, and this Father's Day is just going to seem a little empty..
So when I had the chance to review one of their Photo Dog Tags, I was so excited, because I was able to put a picture of my grandpa (and my aunt Loretta, who also passed away this past year) on the necklace. So while grandpa isn't here this year.. I now have the memory of him.. right there on my neck.
When I first received my necklace, I took it out, and was just thrilled. I was so happy with it.. and it literally brought tears to my eyes. The picture I have up does no justice.. The actual product is just stunning! I honestly can't even believe the quality of the picture ( I was so skeptical about how it would turn out!) The chain that the pendant comes on is also a great quality.. Very thick, and unlikely to break in my opinion.
I think any dad (or anyone!) would absolutely cherish a necklace like this. With a picture of his family.. his children.. or even his favorite thing to do on it. I would highly recommend PicturesOnGold.com!

ReplyDeleteI love their photo jewelry, just gorgeous! You picked a beautiful picture :)
ReplyDeleteI think picking the picture would definitely be the hardest part!
It was very hard to pick a picture! I have so many good ones of grandpa :)!
Deletei love this idea
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful piece of jewelry and it looks great in the picture. What a wonderful way to remember such a wonderful man your grandfather was to you. Now everyone will know a man that won't be forgotten because your jewelry will tell a story of someone who is important in your life that can be passed down to your family for generations to come

Wow, it really does look lovely! My husband is not much into such things but I think even he would wear it...if not, I sure would! I too have lost several loved ones that I would put in it. Thanks for the review, I am off to check out their site. :-)
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear about your losses :(
DeleteI'm glad it's such high quality. Sorry for your losses. If I won I think I'd either put my parents who are deceased or my 2 boys. What great memories this would hold, like you said!

ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome idea. My stepmother would love this! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOh I love those! My dad passed away 6 mos. ago, but he bought me a pendant like that for each of my 3 boys. I think I might have to get one for my mom and I of him.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear about your father :(
DeleteThis is would be so useful for adults and kids alike! What a great sentiment to your grandpa. I love them!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great. What does the back look like??
ReplyDeleteI wanted to include a picture of the back, but it's mostly silver and when I took the picture it was turning out with a reflection :(
DeleteThe back is really nice though. It says "RIP"
Priceless!! Just lost my mom a few months ago and this would be great to share with my siblings. Thanks for posting this!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear about your Mother's Passing.
DeleteThe quality sounds really good and would make a beautiful gift for any father figure in our lives. I love how thick the necklace is so it won't break easily. I know it will be difficult for you this coming Father's Day which is why it is so great that you have wonderful memories of your Grandpa.
ReplyDeleteI also see my Grandpa as a Father figure. Very touching post, may God comfort you on Father's day this year with happy memories of him!
ReplyDeleteAwww How lovely!
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteWow, I LOVE this! What a great idea.
ReplyDeletethis is such a great idea its like the new generation "locket" instead of putting a picture into a necklace they are putting the picture on the necklace! this would make a great gift for anyone on/for any occasion!
