Some of you out there may already know Jasmine as the blogger who created Eat, Move, Write, but she is also the jewelry designer behind bama + ry.
If you visit the bama + ry shop on Etsy and read the “About” page, you will find Jasmine’s heartbreaking story. After years of infertility, Jasmine suffered a miscarriage and lost her precious twins.
In Jasmine’s words:
“In many ways, this shop was born the moment I miscarried our twins this past February. I’ve always dreamt of two things: creating for a living and becoming a mother. I’ve learned, though, that there are things you can control and things you cannot. So, with this shop, bama + ry, I’m putting my energy into something that I can control. And, for the rest, I will put my wishes out to the universe and just let.it.go.”
Jasmine creates jewelry that is personalized, rustic and made from copper and nickel silver. All of her jewelry is created by hand – the pounding of the metal, positioning of the letters and customization.
She also creates jewelry especially for those who have gone through the pain of a miscarriage, including a this necklace and this necklace.
When Jasmine reached out to me about spreading the word about her handmade jewelry, I was immediately touched by her story and had to share it with all of you. Jasmine made me a beautiful personalized initial cuff that I absolutely adore.
It’s gorgeous on its own or layered with a watch or other bracelets.
If you’re a runner, you might be interested in one of her running-themed necklaces or charms!

I would love jewelry in memory of my 24 yr old son who died in a bicycle accident in Jan. ’12. He was a ultra marathon runner who had done a 100k in Singapore the summer before he died. He lived life fully and is missed by everyone who knew him. He left a journal with his bucket list of items that we have recently finished in his memory.
Gorgeous jewelry! I would get the 13.1 or 26.2 charm since I have completed 3 marathons.
I would get the personalized cuff! They are gorgeous jewelry
I liked bama + ry on facebook!

I would choose the nickel “strength” necklace that says “stronger than yesterday”. It would be perfect to keep me motivated as I prepare for my first figure show.
I actually gave similar personalized cuffs to my bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law and loved them! They make great gifts! I think I’d go with a cuff or a necklace – cute jewelry!
I love the cuff similar to yours!
