:: Birthday BASH :: Giveaway #9


This is a fun giveaway!  More like beautiful!  Do you love jewelry?  I admit.... I don't wear much.  But I know a lot of woman who would go WILD for what I am about to show you.  Thank you to the generosity of Robin!  Let's meet her!!


Happy Birthday week Shey!
 
hmmm....  First and foremost I am a proud SAHM to a wonderful little boy who is almost two, and loving every moment (yep, even the crazy ones!) spending precious time with him watching him grow up.  I'm a lover of all crafts, arts and music and anything creativ. Really anything I can get my hands on, but mostly beading and crochet.  I have four tattoos and my nose pierced and I live in my beautiful hometown state of Montana and wouldn't dream of living anywhere else!
 
I just barely opened my Etsy shop and am proud of myself for doing something just for me!  Thanks for letting me have a spot on your giveaway week.
 
I will be giving away the first picture.  It's the white and cream memory wire bracelet of glass pearls in multiple sizes.  It's made on memory wire so it will fit almost everybodys wrist and keep it's shape.  The other pictures are of a few other items in my shop.   
 






















Have a great giveaway week!


Thanks Robin!  We sure are having a great time this week, aren't we?!  I know I am!  So many of you stopping in to help make my Birthday week a BLAST!!!  

I also wanted to share a very sweet email Robin sent me at the end of April.  It made my day!  The fact that I was an inspiration to someone is such an honor!

Hi SheyB,
 
I just wanted to send you a quick email to thank you.  What for you may ask?  After following your blog for quite some time and seeing how well you accomplished your business on Etsy and further, I thought to myself, I could do that!  And so I did!  I just opened up my shop last Friday and within two hours sold my first bracelet!
 
So I just wanted to send you a little shout out for giving me the inspiration and the courage.  Thank you so much, and, congratulations on your feature and your new bigger store!
 
xoxo, Robin

Oh I really really want that first bracelet pictured. I would definitely wear that with a cute little black dress and my pearl necklace. Or that new dress I got for the weekend in Phx. I also love the shades of gray one.

I LOVE the first pearl bracelet! So classy!

I love At the beach...its all about the neutrals these days!

Rebecca @ Piggy Bank Dating said...

I like to shop for gifts at estate sales. I would say antique shops...but I can get the same things from estate sales that I can get from antique shops, but at a much cheaper price! I recently bought my friend several records to add to her collection for her birthday. I got my mom some milk glass and green vases for Mother's Day.

Crystal said...

Um, I love the 5th avenue bracelet. LOVELY!

Crystal said...

I love to shop at local boutiques to find unique gifts made by local artists.

If I were to shop for a friend's birthday, I would more than likely get some kind of gift certificate to a spa or salon. That seems to be the treat most desired (and enjoyed!).

Although I might go the crafty direction and make them a new purse or bag!

Ashley said...

Gorgeous jewelry!

Ashley said...

I like shopping at a little boutique downtown, Shabby's, that has some of the cutest most random things.

The McKays said...

"spring me some green!" so pretty!

As far as friend's birthdays, it's all about their taste, but I do love to hunt for good deals at Target, Marshalls, sales at Anthro, etc.

Renee said...

Love to shop local art and bookstores - that is where I would want gifts from so it's where I buy :)

Becca @ My Crazy Good Life said...

I love the Spring Me Some Green Bracelet.

SoBella Creations said...

I always look for handmade items when I'm shopping for a friend or family member. Usually on sites like Etsy or Big Cartel.

If all else fails I give the person a gift card.

I left a message for Robin and looked around. I use to live in Montana, so I got a little sad looking around. I miss MT so much! Thanks for sharing her talents with us!

Let me see, I can't pick just one, the 5th Avenue, Shades of Grey and the Shades of Copper? were the ones I couldn't live without. Thanks for showing something new-I am definately going to go back and check her shop out again. Thanks for the chance!!!!

emtdlb said...

Left a message for Robin-she is one talented individual. Thanks for hooking us up with someone new.

emtdlb said...

I like a little place in our town called Farkleberries-just a little indie gift shop with bunches of different little suprises at different times of the year. Plus Hobby Lobby and Michaels usually have something I can work with to make a gift or basket of some kind. Thanks for the chance and have a blessed birthday and a year full of love and joy and laughter!

And my favorite place to shop for a birthday gift varies based on who it is for, but I prefer locally owned shops for special gifts of jewelry or homemade candles. Or I make something myself.

Okay I just "favorited" her entire etsy shop because I'm pretty sure I'm going to be needing at least five or ten of those bracelets.
