In my last blog I wrote about my yearly trip to Ocean City, New Jersey; though I wasn’t able to spend the whole week, I still had a great time and got to do most of the things I wanted to do. If I didn’t mention it before, OCNJ is one my favorite places; I have so many fond memories with my family and friends there.
When I got home from my weekend vacation, I got a little surprise in the mail — a necklace from Dune Jewelry made with sand from Ocean City. I was so excited; it came at the perfect time because I was sad I had to leave the beach. Now with my necklace, I can take my favorite place with me anywhere I go.
I got the Delicate Destinations Dune Bar Necklace; I love it because it’s not too big and sits perfectly on my neck. If a necklace isn’t your thing, Dune Jewelry has plenty of other options. Choose from bracelets, rings, earrings and more. Once you find the perfect piece for you, choose from more than 4,000 samples of sand from beaches, ballparks, mountaintops and more to make the ultimate travel souvenir and keep your favorite memories close.
If you are a fan of Global Traveler and interested in a piece of one-of-a-kind travel jewelry, head to our Instagram, @globaltravelermag, to enter into a giveaway. We teamed with Dune Jewelry for the contest, and one lucky winner will win a subscription to Global Traveler and a Boho Stacker Ring. If you want to enter, hurry up because today is the last day, and a winner will be announced tomorrow!
