With the combination of fine silver and gold and an added pop of coral, turquoise, aqua and more of natures palette, you’ll feel feminine, confident and beautiful. I could swear I hear the steel drums playing every time I visit her shop!
To learn more about Kim and her shop, Mermaid Charms, check out our exclusive interview and be sure to visit her fan page on Facebook, Twitter and of course, her Etsy shop.
Here’s a sneak peek at our 1-on-1 with Kim….
Aside from the beach, where do you find your inspiration? Do you have a favorite vacation spot or a town you like to visit when you need tap into your creativity?
KV: As a family, we have spent a lot of time on the Hawaiian Islands. The carefree, fun atmosphere is always a perfect place to get the creative juices flowing and the islands have some wonderful beaches in which to find sea glass. I also enjoy visiting Northern California as well. I guess any area that has the potential to find sea glass is the place for me. My husband is entertained by the fact that our vacations are planned around the hopes of striking it rich with sea glass finds. Read More
The Giveaway
One of our lucky readers will have a chance to win this gorgeous Mermaid Charms originals….
Aqua Southern California Sea Glass – Fresh Water Pearl with Sterling Silver Chain and Toggle Closure
Retail Value: $50.00
On one of my recent beach walks, I found this pretty piece of aqua SoCal sea glass. I love the way it dangles down from the sterling silver toggle closure. Sitting atop the sea glass pendant is a cute sterling silver sand dollar charm. I added a freshwater pearl as a little bonus. The chain is sterling silver and measures 18 inches. What a beautiful piece to remind you of a lazy walk on the beach or well deserved vacation.

Stumbled this
I gotta say, I’m not one to wear jewelry — I don’t even have my ears pierced.. but this necklace is stunning.
All the jewelry at Mermaid Charms is incredibly pretty.. I love how every piece is unique. But since I love blue & sea glass, I’d say the Cornflower Blue Sea Glass Earrings are my favorite
I love the natural simplicity.
The Weston Sea Glass Necklace is my favorite! It’s so beautiful and summery! I can smell the ocean just looking at it!

Because I have lived on the water my entire life, born and raised on the water and now raising my own family on the shores of the lake I am very drawn to sea inspired jewelry. The Mermaid Charms jewelry is magical to me and I think every piece is gorgeous! I found it hard to pick a favorite when each item is a unique creation and work of art, but the Two Rings Necklace caught my eye right away so that is my favorite piece for today! Thank you so much for the chance to enter.
I love the Starfish Necklace.
