Cangles Eco Friendly Jewelry Review & Giveaway

GIVEAWAY ENDED 

Cangles

GIVEAWAY UPDATE:  Cangles has generously increased the gift certificate amount to $30 for one lucky reader! 

Let me introduce you to Cangles, an amazing company that offers eco friendly jewelry.  All of the jewelry is hand-crafted from recycled products and is 100% Made in the USA!  How awesome is that!?  Each piece is unique and one-of-a-kind.  There are a variety of styles available for men, woman and teens ranging from Save the Earth, Military, Pink Ribbon, Summer Sizzle and more.  There is something for everyone!

Not only is Cangles dedicated to doing their part to save the earth, they also give back to the community.

Cangles, LLC donates the tabs from the cans to Ronald McDonald House Detroit; contributes to the Vassar Area Angel Food Ministry; to Save the Earth Foundation; $1 from every sale of our "Cure" bracelets goes to the Susan G. Komen Foundation; $1 from each of our military logo cuffs we donate to the Wounded Warrior Project. As a family, we're extremely pleased to offer four specially designed eco bracelets with the very relevant message of "Save the Earth." When you purchase one of these bracelets, special contributions are made to aid the Foundation with their vital work.

Seriously, how many companies can say they do all of that?  Each one of the organizations Cangles donates to has in some way touched my life, personally, at one time or another.  For that alone Cangles has won a special place in my heart.

Cangles sent me two beautiful pieces.  They're funky and fun, unique and eco friendly!  The representative from Cangles asked me which item from their store I would like for a sample.  I requested a cuff from a Coke can w/ a silver flower.


Much to my surprise when I received my package there was also a lovely bangle made from a Squirt can.  I wasn't familiar with Squirt soda so I had a fun time trying to guess.  Sure I could've looked online but it was more fun trying to guess.  When my husband got home I showed him and he guessed spot on!  He was also very impressed with Cangles and thought that the bracelets were fun.  We both noted how nice and strong the magnetic clasp on the Squirt bangle is.  He didn't even realize it was a magnet until I showed him.

I'm certain that you can see the detail and beautiful craftsmanship in the photos above.  It is obvious to me that the person who worked on these bracelets takes pride in their work.

I encourage you to consider Cangles Eco Friendly Jewelry next time you need a unique and fun gift.  Think teacher gifts, babysitters, office staff, an add in for a gift basket, birthdays, graduations...  You can purchase Cangles at their online store or, if you're local, you can stop by C & S Jewelers, 125 E Huron Ave, Vassar, Michigan.

Next option would be WIN IT HERE!

Giveaway details:  Cangles is offering one of my lucky readers a $20 $30 gift certificate to their online store!
