Easter, Springtime, & Giveaway News


Well, it's Easter and it's beautiful outside, so there's really no excuse for sitting here at my computer. Actually, I should be doing homework- that was the pretense for turning the computer on. Of course that never happened.

I don't have a lot of news to report. I did want to mention to blog followers that I'm having another giveaway. I'll be giving away the ear threads pictured in this post, which you can see more pictures of here: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=44082294. (Paste the link into your browser or just click on my etsy shop to the right and you'll see the earrings in the shop).

This is open to everyone who wants to enter. All you have to do is tell someone else about my etsy shop, http://www.graycat26.etsy.com, or post about my jewelry somewhere else, like on your own blog or twitter. Then come back and post here that you did so. Please become a blog follower if you aren't already! For an extra entry, tell me a good joke or post your favorite quote!

I'll draw a name on April 19th. This giveaway is also open to my facebook friends, and if I get a big response (unlikely since they've all probably blocked me by now to avoid my Etsy spam!) I'll draw two names and give away two pairs. Also, if you win, you can choose between the sea green color and the tanzanite purple, which you can see in my shop.

Good luck, and thanks to everyone in advance for spreading the news about my shop!

Happy Easter if you celebrate :)

  3. My most TREASURED quote!: <3 <3 <3

    ------------------------------

    Mind is the Master--power that molds and makes, and Man is Mind, and ever more he takes the Tool of Thought, and shaping what he wills, brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills--He thinks in secret and it comes to pass; Environment is but his looking-glass.

    James Allen (1864-1912) British-born American essayist.

  7. We have a family joke and saying...whenever we needed homework help our father (who was exceptionally brilliant) would always say, "Read the book." Over and over. It became a saying for the family in all kinds of situations, usually funny ones.
