Shine On Sporty Girl Necklace Review + Giveaway!

I am SO excited to have the opportunity to tell you about Shine On Sporty Girl, a fabulous line of jewelry, medal displays, ornaments, and other fun things designed especially for runners and athletes.  I first fell in love with their adorable running-inspired charms when I saw one of their necklaces on (where else) pinterest, so I am thrilled to be able to write a review of their necklaces as well as to give a few (yes, multiple!) away to my wonderful readers!  
Kate Daisy and Team from Shine On Sporty Girl sent me a bunch of different charms to check out.  I love a small necklace that packs a big meaning, so this necklace is perfect for me.  I picked the "Love to Run, Live to Run" charm paired with a small 13.1 distance charm and a pretty crystal.  I adore this necklace.  It is perfect to wear with a v-neck tshirt and jeans, and it's the perfect way to hold my love for my favorite sport close to my heart in a subtle way.  The ball chain is also adjustable, which is a nice feature--you can just snip the chain to whatever length you want.  There are so many awesome charms on the website that you can mix and match to create the perfect necklace for you.  I honestly had trouble deciding which charm was my favorite, but "Live to Run, Love to Run" is just the perfect message for me right now, plus the 13.1 to remind me of my half-marathons and keep me moving towards my upcoming 13.1 goals.  (Hopefully I can add the 26.2 charm some day soon!)

Two beautiful necklaces from the website:

Shine On Sporty Girl sent me charms and chains to giveaway beautiful necklaces to THREE readers!  
 I arranged the charms on the chains for a picture, but half the fun is creating a custom piece, so three winners can choose from these charms to create their own special necklace.  Winners can choose...

(My pictures do NOT do them justice; use the links below to check the ones on the website!)

1 running charm...
Running Love, Run Strong, or Star Running Girl

1 or 2 small charms from the five below...
10K or 26.2 distance charms, running shoe charm, or pink or green  crystal charms
(And of course, one silver ball chain to wear them on!)

I wasn't really sure how to organize this giveaway since I wanted the winners to be able to choose their charms, but there are three chains, three running charms, and five extra charms, so this will be a first-respond, first-pick giveaway.  Each winner will win one chain, one running charm, and 1 or 2 extra small charms, depending on who responds first!

**One cool thing is that if you win the giveaway and don't get your first pick of charms, you can always add on to the necklace by buying an additional charm from Shine On Sporty Girl.  The distance charms are only $5!

To win one of these beautiful necklaces...
  • Be a follower of Juice Boxes + Crayolas and leave a comment letting me know you are! (Mandatory)
  • Leave a comment below telling me which charms you would put together for your necklace (+1 additional entry)
  • Leave a comment telling me why running is close to your heart! (+1 additional entry)
This giveaway will end at midnight on Saturday, September 22nd.  I will choose 3 winners using random.org on Sunday and post them here, and winners will get to choose their charms in the order they email me to claim their prizes.  :)  Make sense?  Sorry this giveaway is so complicated...

LEGAL DISCLAIMER: Shine On Sporty Girl provided me with one necklace to review and three to give away to readers.  I was not compensated in any other way or encouraged to express a particular opinion.  I just really think these necklaces are fabulous. ;)

    Hi! I am a blog follower, and I love to read your posts! I teach and I run. Running is close to my heart because it keeps me sane. It's my time to be alone, think, and sweat the bad stuff out. I would choose the 26.2 charm, the heart and a purple crystal. Very cute necklace!

    I love running because it makes me a better person. I had to take a few days off a couple of weeks ago due to an injury, and I didn't even want to be around myself!

    Right now, I love everything about running. I love crossing a workout off my calendar and I love seeing my miles add up on dailymile. I love the sense of accomplishment that comes with training for a big event.

    I run because it sets such a great example for my kids. They see me going for runs and working out at the gym. They come to watch me at races and my 5 year old did his first race last month! They want to be involved in running and sports which makes me a happy mom of healthy kids!!

    Just saw your blog; it will be great to follow you. I would get the 13.1, the love to run – live to run, and a blue crystal. I'm getting ready to do my 4th 1/2 marathon in 2.5 weeks on Oct 7th in Victoria BC. Running is special to be because it's something I can share with my Mom who is still an active runner at 76 years old. I did my first marathon and first 2 1/2 marathons with her, as well as many triathlons. I've lost almost 20 pounds this year by running and eating better.

    Running is close to my heart because it keeps me healthy and sane. It also reminds me of my mom since her and I started running together back when I was in middle school. I may have never run my first 5k if not for her.
