My Review of Something 2 Brag About
Becci of Something 2 Brag About contacted me and told me that she wanted to participate in the Buy By Mom Americana Bash. I was excited to have her on board and told her where she could send any review items. That was all that was discussed between us about the review and the Bash.
It wasn't long at all before I received a package from Something 2 Brag About. When I opened it up and took a look at the beautiful bracelet inside, I simply couldn't believe my eyes. It was gorgeous. But as I looked closer, I noticed that the stones used in the bracelet were the birthstones of each of my kids. I quickly opened the enclosed note from Becci and began to read. As I read, tears started to flow from my eyes. Becci described how she had gone through my family blog to find out all the details she would need. She found the kids' birthdays, my birthday, my husband's birthday, and several other important details. She told me that the bracelet was custom made just for me and it was to be called the "Vinez Family Bracelet." She added a couple of charms to the bracelet: one that said "family," one that had my and my husband's birthstones, and one with a cross, because she knew how important my faith was to me.
She got everything she needed by taking the time to go through my blog and learn who I am and what's important to me. She went above and beyond in every way possible. This is the first time I've ever been brought to tears because of a review item. It may sound silly that I say that I cried over this, but the fact that Becci spent so much time on just a review item shows me that she will go above and beyond for each of her clients to provide them with something they will treasure forever. Just like I will treasure this bracelet forever.
I would highly recommend Becci and Something 2 Brag About to anyone I meet. I am so glad I've been introduced to her and I look forward to doing more business with her in the future.
