Orange Littles - blog giveaway winner's choice

Carol Ann (one of my latest blog giveaway winners) told me her favourite colour was orange. Here are her custom made pair of my Littles Earrings with shades of carnelian.

Orange Littles - Carnelian Coiled Jewel Fine Silver Hammered Circle Earrings

This pair is winging their way to her as I type (although a UK postal strike has just been announced!). I have also listed these earrings in my Etsy and Folksy shops as a 'made to order' item. I will, of course, take custom orders if you have a different colour in mind - just ask!

Blog giveaway - not one but TWO winners!

I have been blown away by the reponse to my latest blog giveaway which resulted in 78 entries (including all the extra entries given for being a follower or blogging about my giveaway). My usual little pot couldn't cope with all the pieces of paper, so I had to find a bigger receptacle before I could do the draw.

I am so grateful for all the lovely feedback and the extra exposure I got from this giveaway that I have decided to have TWO winners.


The two names out the box were: 'Carol Anne' and 'Lazy Daisy Glass'. Congratulations to these two readers - please could you contact me (using the E-mail link top right) and you will each get a custom made pair of my 'Littles' earrings in the colours of your choice.

Thank you to everyone for entering. I shall be having another giveaway next month.

I know I should share but....

I am always telling my kids and the children I work with that they should share but this time I’m not going to! Look at these gorgeous midnight boro swirl beads I won from lovely Becky of Chameleon Designs in her latest blog giveaway. I am so lucky!

The beads are truly spectacular and they’re mine... all mine!

I will of course ‘share’ the photos of whatever I make for myself with them - see, I'm not really that selfish!

You must go and browse round the Chameleon Designs website and look at Becky's glorious beads and jewellery. You have to be quick though when she makes new beads as they are sold in an instant.

We have a winner

After a very busy day today, I did the draw for my blog giveaway of a pair of Amethyst Shades Earrings just after midnight. The lucky winner drawn from my little pot was....

Silver Moss Jewellery - please can you contact me with your address and I will send your earrings a.s.a.p. Thank you everyone for entering. I shall be doing another blog giveaway next month.

Doubly lucky

What a lucky girl I am, I can't believe it - I won not one but TWO giveaways at the weekend!

My first win was this beautiful pink ribbon heart pendant I blogged about a while ago from Mel of Kookie Designs. And my second lucky win was this lovely Lilac Chain Maille Bracelet from Jo of Jolicious.

Thank you so much to both designers. I will wear your jewellery with pride (and if I feel brave enough, I might even post a photo of me doing so).

From the pictures they look like they will go very well together so it must have been fate that helped me win or maybe I'm having a lucky streak..... I'm off to buy a lottery ticket tomorrow!

We have a winner!

I have just done the draw to find a winner for my Spiral Loop Circular Pendant and the winning name pulled out of my pot was BeadyPool. Congratulations to you (please can you contact me and send me your details).




Thank you to everyone else who entered and for your feedback on my jewellery, I really do appreciate it. I will be doing another blog giveaway next month so please stop by my blog again soon.

Hooray - I'm a winner! Kanna Glass Studios

Yay, I won a blog giveaway and I am delighted. Here are the beautiful beads I won from Jenn at Kanna Glass Studios.

I am SO lucky - they look fantastic in her picture. This is what Jenn says about the beads:

"this is a really nice set of 18 (yes, eighteen) small beads. They range in size from 7-9mm by 4-5 mm. Kiwi is a delightful bright, green transparent. It fooled me the first time I used it because it's transparent sheathed in opaque. But that combo creates the above deliciously swirled green beadberries. There are enough to create a beautiful necklace and earrings...and if you space them just right you could stretch the beads into a bracelet as well!

Quality assurance: These are my first-rate beads! I quality check them to make sure they are well-balanced, have proper dimples, are round, and no smokey or scummed glass. I spin them, touch them, and look at them carefully. Any that don't past muster are sent to the seconds jar. I also guarantee my beads...if any don't pass your muster, I will fix it!"

Jenn has recently launched her own website at http://www.kannaglassstudios.com/ which has links to her blog , her Artfire shop and her Flickr pages where you can see some of her beautiful handmade lampwork beads and the lovely pieces of jewellery she has made using her designs. (I only hope I can do her beads justice when I receive them).

The winner's earrings

Here are the winner's earrings - Turquoise Hammered Circle Earrings (very textured).

And the winner is...

Thank you to everyone who entered my first blog giveaway of some custom made 'Hammered Circle Earrings'.

I put the names in my little pot and pulled out.... Tina. Congratulations to Tina. She chose her earrings to be made with turquoise beads and very textured. I will make these earrings later today and will post a picture of them on my blog before I despatch them.

(Tina - please can you contact me and send me your address)

Sorry to those who didn't win but I will be doing another giveaway next month so please stop by my blog again.
