Matching Bracelets for Moms and Best Friends: PermaLinx Gift Ideas

Looking for matching bracelets that mean something? A mom-and-daughter pair, a best-friend duo or a sister trio can all wear the same chain, fitted to each wrist in one visit. With jBloom’s PermaLinx permanent jewelry, the bracelets are connected with a small, secure link, so there’s no clasp to lose. If you want the basics first, start with my PermaLinx permanent jewelry guide.

Why matching PermaLinx bracelets make a great gift

A matching set is really a shared memory. Instead of handing someone a box to open and forget, you make the appointment part of the gift. You each choose a chain, get fitted, and leave wearing the same style. Because every bracelet is sized to the wearer on the spot, a matching set works for different wrist sizes too.

How to choose the chain

The PermaLinx bracelet collection lists dozens of styles. According to jBloom, most chains are priced at $45 to $55, and the colored and enamel styles are $55. Chains come in stainless and gold stainless. A few ideas for matching:

Mom and daughter: pick a simple, dainty chain you can both wear every day, like the Dainty, Heart or Classic styles named on jBloom’s page.
Best friends: match the chain, or choose different chains in the same finish so each one fits your own style.
Sisters or bridesmaids: choose one finish for the whole group, then add a PermaLinx charm for the guest of honor.

Thinking of a charm? jBloom says it recommends only its PermaLinx-specific charms for this line and doesn’t recommend adding other chains, rings or charms.

What the appointment is like

jBloom says each bracelet takes about 3 to 6 minutes to apply, and the designer comes to you. An individual appointment runs about 15 minutes per person, while a group PermaLinx Boutique takes about 1 to 2 hours. The page also says stainless steel is built for showering, swimming and sweating, the guarantee covers PermaLinx, and you can remove a bracelet with scissors if you ever want to.

Make it a girls’ day and host a party

If your group is three or more, a boutique is the easy way to do it. Everyone gets fitted in one visit, and the host earns rewards. jBloom’s Event VIP page says hosts earn free jewelry and half-priced items based on boutique sales, starting at $250 in sales. You can host at home or online.

Giving a matching bracelet as a gift

Not sure your person will say yes to permanent jewelry? jBloom says you can book in advance and ask your designer for a gift certificate, so she can choose her own chain. Then plan the fitting together.
