Giveaway – Hot Chocolate Earrings

Posted on by

cupandstayGreetings and welcome to my weekly giveaway! 🙂

This week, I have a pair of dangle earrings with rich earthy colors – just the thing to spruce up your Thanksgiving outfit! They’re dressy enough for a festive occasion yet they have an “artsy-look” so they’re also perfect for jeans and a sweater!

Hot Chocolate Earrings

I’ve used an array of interesting beads here, including:

*Czech Glass striped triangular beads in warm Cocoa Brown, Rust, Denim Blue, and Montana Blue.

*Vintage Lucite rounds in a mottled Copper/Brown

All metal components are sterling silver. The earrings measure approximately 2-1/4″ in length, including the sterling silver earwires.

  1. What is it that you must have with you when you travel?
    I must have my hair straightener. Don’t want crazy awful hair while traveling!!

  2. List your criteria for a good day. 🙂
    Easy! Here we go!
    1. A good morning kiss
    2. Time to relax and drink my coffee in the morning
    3. A good night kiss

    3 steps to happiness for me…

  3. Gosh these are cute earrings!

    Sadly, I don’t travel. We have always felt that there was too much to do at home when we have time off. But on short trips, even to do the weekly errands, I must take a cup of joe with me.

    If I were going on vacation, I’m sure I’d take the kitchen sink.

  4. Good Morning Sweet Crystal!

    Yet another gorgeous set of earrings!!! I really love brown and blue together, and this is just the right color combo!

    Well, I really can’t answer the first question, because I don’t travel. I’ve never been on a plane, or a boat (except for a little boat that is!) I’ve been to Florida and to Vermont, and all the states in between, because we were driving. The southern trips were taken when I was a kid, the trip to Vermont was on my honeymoon, in December. It was snowing when we left NY, and it snowed everyday up there. It was just the most beautiful place! … I guess I must have my car when I travel!!! =D

    Hugs, Paulette xoxo

  5. Hi again Crystal!

    My criteria for a good day is that everyone I care about is happy and also having a good day! You can also throw in a little bit of nature, crafting, and a bunch of giggles! That makes a PERFECT day! …oh, and if were really talking a SUPER PERFECT day…ADD SOME SNOW!!!

    Hugs, Paulette xoxo

  20. #1 I always take snacks when I travel.
    #2 A happy day is a pain free day. I get alot of back pain & headaches.

  24. To travel well you need a few things, 1st someone to share the adventure with, a camera to catch all those special sites and moments, a good pair of walking shoes, a jacket and a bathing suit, everything else you can buy.
    cheers

  26. I’ve got to take my….kids when I travel. I miss them too much if I leave them at home!! When my hubby and I got married 5 years ago, we took a two week honeymoon…one week just the two of us and my mom flew out with my 10 year old for the second week!

  27. A good day starts with coffee. An absolute must for a good day. Also some time to breathe….things have been pretty hectic around here lately between working full time, volunteering, two kids in school, one in fencing and cadets, the other in ballet and gymnastics, running a website from home and doing some freelance writing on the side….well you catch my drift! lol

    Thanks.

  38. What is it that you must have with you when you travel?

    Well in addition to the necessary items like clothes, I must have my iphone. I keep all sorts of info in it and without the GPS, I’d be sure to get utterly lost!

  39. List your criteria for a good day.

    My criteria for a good day starts off with a good night’s sleep, a kiss from hubby, and my girls behaving themselves in the morning.

  41. A good day for me is to enjoy what God has given me and what he brings to me. See the beauty that is all around me and feeling the spirit that surrounds it.

  42. What is it that you must have with you when you travel?

    I have to have pony tail holders and a brush. My hair is below my waist and gets lots of static this time of the year. Need to get it out of my face 🙂

  45. Criteria for a good day:

    Home from work, quality time spent with my daughter (going to the zoo or the park or doing crafty stuff)

  46. Leaving aside boring stuff like “my glasses” and other medical necessities, the one thing I MUST have with me when I travel anywhere outside my house is my sketchbook! Experience has taught me that if I don’t have it, I WILL regret it! I’ll forget ideas, miss phone numbers, all sorts of bad news! Gimme my sketchenbook!

    And, I guess, a pencil. Other Sketchie is sort of limited in use.

    I love your questions!

  47. A good day is a day when I feel good, and have time to think. A GREAT day is when I get a piece of art finished! Yeah! No better feeling, not even chocolate!

  48. An essential for any trip is a good book and my current needle project. I always end up to tired at the end of the day to go out again, but to wired to go to bed early.

  49. I need to have my clock with me. Not that I need an alarm but I like to know when I wake up what time it is.
