Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! You’re probably busier than usual at this time of year with outdoor activities, family events, or maybe some vacation days!

Even if there’s nothing in particular on your calendar though, remember to take some time to relax and spoil yourself a little during the nice weather. We all need a break from our routine! I figure while I am reminding myself – I should remind you too! 🙂

Speaking of summer and vacations . . .

How about a giveaway with a beach/ocean theme?

These earrings have the beautiful blue/green coloring of the sea!

Sea Cruise Earrings

They’re made with Czech glass beads and Swarovski crystals. All of the findings and embellishments are sterling silver. They measure approximately 2″ from top to bottom (including the sterling silver earwires.)

Contest Rules and How To Enter

This week, I’m going to do something that lots of TV shows do during the summer when they know that their regular viewers are busy with other things – they have a “best of” series.

***Each day this week, I will post a link to one of my favorite articles from the archives. Leave a comment on that post and get one chance for the giveaway. You can get as many as FIVE chances to win! I will post a new link each day through Friday. The contest ends on Sunday, so there would be time for you to catch up on any days you missed.

Today’s link – Day One is to a post where I encourage you to think of yourself sometimes. Click here to leave a comment on it and that will give you one chance to win! 🙂

Come on back tomorrow to see another link! If you comment on that post, too – you’ll have two chances to win and so on throughout this week.

Five chances are available and you can decide how many of those chances you would like!

Thanks for playing. 🙂
