(Beautiful) Friendship Stone Review and Giveaway! [Giveaway Closed]
Nina SayI was very intrigued when I first saw the website for the Friendship Stones, I was touched by the message it portrayed and I fell in love with not only the concept, but the product! It made me think of all of the people I wish I could give a friendship stone to.. all of the people I have lost contact with or that I owe an apology too. There is so much meaning behind what this company is doing for society, and what we could be doing in return.
I was sent the Friendship Stone Individual pack. I knew from the moment I opened it that I would want to give it to somebody special. It reminded me of the days when it was normal to show your friends how much you care. Here are some pictures of the package I got. It includes a polished stone, a very nice pouch, and a booklet.
I would highly recommend these products as a gift to anyone you really care about and would like to keep in your life. Here is what I plan on doing with mine:
My friendship stone set would be worthless sitting at home, since giving it to myself would not be a very good gift at all. I plan on giving it to my Aunt, Amanda. She may be my aunt, but she is only a mere three years older than me and she has always been an amazing friend to me. Through everything I can think of, high school drama, boys, my pregnancy DURING high school, and my daughter. She introduced me to music at a young age and I have loved it ever since. We have always had this special connection that I have never had with any other person. No other "friend" has truly been there for me no matter what, and that makes her special.
I really hope she doesn't read this, but even if she does.. she will be getting a heads up to how amazing I think she is. And if she doesn't read it, then she will have an amazing special surprise waiting for her under the Christmas tree!

Hey Neen ...
I was thinking about writing something on my friend Wendy .... I'd love to give her one of the Friendship Stones ....
But I do not see where you need to enter on the The Friendship Stone Website.
Let me know!
I sent in my story! I would give mine to my friend Christina. She and I were best friends and room mates, but as life has moved us, we are not as close, but I miss her and love her dearly. This would be a terrific gift to surprise her with.
Now following them on Twitter! (Great page btw)

I'd give this to my daughter.
I would have to give this to my Mother. She was there to pick up the pieces and put them back together. A mothers love can cause miracles
I'd love to give a Friendship Stone to my daughters BFF's mom who happens to have become my BFF. She is an amazing friend, mom and 2nd mom to my daughter. She is one of the strongest women I have ever met and has the kindest most giving heart. She actually spent 4 1/2 hours scrubbing a shower stall in my old condo when my tenants moved out... That deserves an award in itself!
