Behind the Scenes at Ben-Amun: Choose Your Own Jewelventure with Ben-Amun

Today's Spring Equinox marks the end of this lackluster winter, and while we’re eagerly awaiting the opportunity to change over our wardrobes and bloom like roses, we’re feeling a bit nostalgic for the season that forgot to pass. It’s true, as I put away my puffer jacket, I begin to think of all the things that this winter didn’t allow me to do, like go dog sledding. I’ve never gone dog sledding, however, should winters on the East Coast decide to make mildness a permanent change, I may never get to.

SO, in an effort to do something we haven’t done before, we’re about to embark on a Ben-Amun style “choose your own adventure”. Not only has a choose your own adventure never appeared on the Ben-Amun blog, but we’re guessing that most of our (multitudinous) readers were not at any point in their lives adolescent boys, meaning that most of you probably have as little experience with this as we do. Fear not, I have no intention of dreaming up jewelry wearing pirates, rather, we’ll be doing this the girly way, starting with pictures of flowers.

Here’s how it works: you choose your favorite of the two flower pictures below, and depending on your choice you will be taken on one of two “jewelventures” leading you to your perfect Ben-Amun piece! Off we go!
