Hi there, and welcome to the weekly giveaway! This may be the week you win!

The prize is a summery pair of earrings in a cool and refreshing shade of lime sherbet green. They’d be perfect for a garden party, a day by the pool, or any time you’d like to be just a little flirty! 🙂

These “Lime Cooler” Earrings feature gorgeous Vintage Lucite flat teardrop-shaped beads that have pearlized swirls on their surface – much like mother of pearl. To complement the vintage lucite, I’ve added adorable Czech flower beads, Swarovski peridot crystals and Czech glass rondelles in lime green. The earrings measure a very showy 2-1/4 inches long, including the graceful 14k gold plated earwires.

Posted on April 6, 2009 by crystal

If it’s Monday – it must be time for a new giveaway and new questions!

Last week’s answers to “Which celebrity would you run away with…” were so much fun! Although some names were mentioned a few times, it was amazing to see the wide variety of choices, overall! Thanks everyone for playing along. 🙂

This week’s giveaway is a reflection of the signs of spring that are just starting to dot the landscape here in New England – and maybe in your neck of the woods, too! The trees are budding and soon new leaves will appear in that gorgeous springtime shade of peridot green.

These “Touch of Spring” Earrings feature delicately etched Czech Glass Leaf beads, Vintage Swarovski peridot aurora borealis crystal teardrops, and contemporary Swarovski peridot crystals. Tiny goldtone beadcaps add a finishing touch, and the pretty earwires are 14k gold plated.

Contest Rules and How To Enter
