Post-Mother's Day Giveaway

Even though Mother's Day has come and gone, and I'm sure some of you received jewelry for that holiday (lucky!), it's true that a girl can never have ENOUGH jewelry, right?

My lovely friend Julie has recently started an etsy store and has graciously offered up one piece of jewelry to one of my blog readers. Julie's generosity is only part of what I love about her. Her talent is another part of it. She recently started making her own necklaces (she even makes the glass beads herselff!), as well as purses. I've had a Julie made necklace for quite some time, and EVERY time I wear it, I get tons of compliments on it. I'm so thrilled that she's started her own store now because now I'll be able to direct people to where they can buy their very own, instead of just admitting that it's a one of a kind. And speaking of one of a kind, can I just tell you that Julie is one of a kind? Once when I was going through a really hard time, I received an envelope in the mail from Julie full of cut out words from a magazine, all of which she said described me and our friendship. I still have all of those words. Also, Julie went to OXFORD. Yes, the Oxford in England. How many people can say that? When she came back to visit one summer, she brought Luke a hilarious shirt that says, "My mum's a fox." I make him wear it all the time and pretend that it's true. Anyway! On to the giveaway...

If you win, Julie will treat you to your choice of one of these three fabulous necklaces:
"Be Still My Heart Pendant"Hand-lampworked glass beads. All metal is sterling silver. Chain is 16" sterling silver box chain.


"Fire Ball Pendant" - Hand-lampworked glass beads. All metal is sterling silver. Chain is 16" sterling silver box chain.

"The Biggie" - One BIG bead! This hand-lampworked glass bead measures over an inch in diameter and is over a half inch thick! It hangs from heavy duty cotton that ties in the back. Depending on how you tie it, it is aprox 16".

Aren't those gorgeous? I personally love the heart!

There are several ways to get yourself entries to this giveaway, so read on:

1. Comment on this entry and tell me which necklace you like the best and WHY, or tell me about a friend you have who is one of a kind and why. This entry is mandatory!
2. Twitter about this contest--make sure you leave the link in a separate comment.

3. Blog about this contest--again, leave a link in a separate comment.

4. Finally, if you see something from Julie's store that you just can't live without buying RIGHT NOW, let me know your etsy username and that you bought something from her store. That'll gain you five extra entries! Not only that, but because Julie is super awesome, she's even offering a 10% off code to my readers!

Winner will be selected Saturday, May 16th. Good luck!
