Welcome to my weekly giveaway and thanks so much for the wonderful comments last week!

And, speaking of comments, I need your help in trying to figure out how I can best respond to them. Try as I might, I never seem to be able to respond to every comment – every week. I do love reading all of them and I really appreciate each one. One of your choices for entering the giveaway this time will be a question that seeks your input regarding comment responses.

Now, on to the Giveaway! 😀

Today, I have a pretty pair of earrings that feature a striking contrast of colors – coral and black. I’ve used lovely, three-dimensional, “Daisy”-shaped beads in sterling silver and then accented them with Czech Jet Black faceted teardrops, and sparkling Swarovski Crystals in a glorious shade of coral called “Padparadscha”. All metal components are sterling silver including the earwires. 2″ in length.

Contest Rules and How To Enter

This week, you will have up to three (3) chances to enter the weekly giveaway.

You can choose any or all of the following 3 ways to enter:

1st Chance:

Leave a comment answering the first weekly question:

For fun . . . imagine that you’ve just given birth to octuplets. (Yikes!) What would you name them? You can assume there are four boys and 4 girls, or whatever combination of boys and girls you choose! 🙂

2nd Chance:

Leave a comment answering the second weekly question:

When you comment a blog, do you like to get a response? If so, do you prefer that the response come in an email, or as a comment on the same post, or as a comment on your blog?

3rd Chance:

Leave a comment on any other post except this one. You can do it today or another day this week. You do not have to tell me that you left a “comment” on another post. The blog program shows me all of the “comments” as they come in – so I do not miss any of them! 😀
