For as long as I can remember, I've loved having a stone assigned to my birth month. Mine is aquamarine, and I'm currently in a loving-all-things-turquoise-and-aqua phase.
My firstborn was born in August. I honestly can't believe he will be 19 in just a few weeks and going back to college for his sophomore year. He's not really into birthstones or anything, but I do remember him having a little peridot birthday bear when he was a toddler. :)
Peridot's the perfect summer birthstone, isn't it? Kind of a lime-ish green. I think it's a fun color to have for a birthstone! Make me think of a big piece of Key Lime Pie even though I don't really like that flavor. Come to think of it, Mountain Dew reminds me of peridot, too, and my kids sure do love that soda. ;)
I hope you enjoy these August gift ideas. It's so fun to give and receive gifts in a color theme!
Happy Shopping!
