Lauren had wanted to get something special for her mum for a while, something that featured the names of the whole family, with room for future additions.

Listen to all of Pauline's story here Pauline was given a Belle Fever Circles of Love necklace by her daughter, as a surprise gift. Much to the delight of her daughter, Pauline wears it all the time and never takes it off. It has become one of her most treasured jewellery items. Pauline’s daughter arranged the surprise, by getting it shipped to Pauline's house.

One thing she did know, was that she wanted her Mum to see it. “it was really important for me, for my mum to see, it was a really beautiful piece to show her and say you’re always going to be with us” Brooke got the idea of getting a personalised jewellery piece and she spent quite a lot of time looking through different Belle Fever pieces to see if she could find anything she liked. When she scrolled on to the Rose Family necklace, it just jumped out at her and she knew that was it!
