Last month, I asked you all to help create the second spring collection for Jess LC. The response on the first and second posts were overwhelming. Thank you very much.
As I have mentioned, I am excited to mesh intentions and jewelry for the first time in my line. And to do that, I asked for intentional phrases you would like to wear on a necklace. Susie and I spent a lot of time reading and compiling a collection of phrases based on your submissions. Below are the semi-finalist phrases for the collection. We’d like to narrow the field down to five or six phrases based on your comments on this post, and on our informal focus groups here in the Jess LC studio.
As you read the ideas below, please remember that each phrase will be on a different necklace, but the words themselves will not be visible to people looking at your pendant. So you won’t feel cheesy or uncomfortable wearing the necklaces.
- Integrity
- Less is More
- Baby Steps
- I Love You
- Persistence
- Be Thankful
- Be Present
- Dream Bigger
- Be Brave
- Do Unto Others
- Breathe
- Carpe Diem
Please comment listing the top one or two phrases that you would most like to purchase.

Be Thankful and Be Brave
I also LOVE Less is More, but I am not sure I would buy it and wear it.
February 19th, 2010 at 7:43 am
I am partial to “Be Brave”
February 19th, 2010 at 8:20 am
I really like “Do Unto Others”, “Breathe”, and “Be Present.”
February 19th, 2010 at 8:21 am
I like “breathe” and “be brave” . . . I could use both reminders on a daily basis. I love this idea.
February 19th, 2010 at 8:32 am
I like “Breathe.” Great options!
February 19th, 2010 at 9:00 am
My 6 favorites are:
Breathe
Be Brave
Dream Bigger
Be Present
Carpe Diem
Be Thankful
February 19th, 2010 at 9:19 am
Be present and dream bigger. I love them all, though!
February 19th, 2010 at 9:25 am
I like Dream Bigger and Be Brave (Be Brave gives me the chills almost – so powerful!)
Can’t wait to see the final product!
February 19th, 2010 at 9:29 am
“Be Present” and “Do Unto Others” Great idea Jess!
February 19th, 2010 at 9:39 am
I am drawn to ‘Baby Steps’ and ‘Be Present’. What a great list – I look forward to seeing what you do with them!
February 19th, 2010 at 9:44 am
I like “Carpe Diem” and “Breathe” – can’t wait to see the finished product(s)!
February 19th, 2010 at 9:54 am
I love “Baby Steps” and “Dream Bigger.” Such words of wisdom!
February 19th, 2010 at 10:08 am
“Be Brave” – sometimes I forget.
February 19th, 2010 at 10:26 am
I love “Be Present”
February 19th, 2010 at 10:33 am
Be Present and Breathe
February 19th, 2010 at 10:33 am
breathe and be present
February 19th, 2010 at 11:00 am
be thankful
and
be present
(those are the two things i’m really working on in my life right now!)
February 19th, 2010 at 11:21 am
i have two thoughts on these – but, first, i love them all. Two ways of thinking about them – buy for myself and buy as a gift. i think the only one that i would want to buy as a gift is “i love you.” for myself i would buy “dream bigger” and “be present”/”breathe.”
carpe diem is a good message, but too cliche.

“Breathe” and “Be present”…I need these reminders EVERYDAY!

My favorite our “breathe” and “be present”. When there are two words, are they both going to be capitalized? I kind of like it with all words lowercase or just the “Be” capitalized.
February 19th, 2010 at 1:23 pm
Ok…honesty time. I love that you can’t see the messages, because I wouldn’t wear an inspirational message as text. But the idea of having a hidden note is wonderful to me. I would personally wear “Be Present” and I would likely give “Breathe” as a gift. I also would wear “Be Brave.”
February 19th, 2010 at 3:04 pm
Be Present and Breathe
February 19th, 2010 at 3:36 pm
I like “Integrity”, “I Love You”, and “Be Present”
February 19th, 2010 at 4:38 pm
I would purchase “Breathe” and “Be Brave”
February 19th, 2010 at 5:36 pm
How inspiring! I love all of them but “be brave” and “be present” speak most to me.
February 19th, 2010 at 5:51 pm
“Dream Bigger” and “Less is More”. Two seemingly contradictory phrases, but I try and work them both into my life as much as possible.
February 19th, 2010 at 6:39 pm
be brave!!!
February 19th, 2010 at 11:08 pm
I’m totally buying these when they’re ready.
I love “Be Brave” best, but also like “Be Present”.
February 19th, 2010 at 11:09 pm
I love Integrity and Be Present!
February 20th, 2010 at 1:38 am
“Less is more” and “Be Thankful.” Looks like everyone has a different opinion…they really are all wonderful.
February 20th, 2010 at 10:34 am
I like Be Brave the best … -
February 20th, 2010 at 1:10 pm
Jess I am SOOOOOOO excited for this new line of “intentional” necklaces! I think the idea is brilliant! Can’t wait!
February 20th, 2010 at 1:11 pm
Persistence, Dream Bigger, and Be Brave are my top picks
February 20th, 2010 at 3:51 pm
