Today, October 26th, we are Giving Away...(CLOSED)

One Madame Knudsen Necklace,
One Necklace of the Winner's choice,
One Pair of Earrings of the Winner's Choice,
and One $10.00 Gift Certificate
from Crystal B. Handcrafted Jewelry


So just in case you don't know this already, I will tell you again. I love--L-O-V-E--Crystal B. Handcrafted Jewelry. Why? Because her vintage pieces make me feel pretty, elegant, and happy. In fact, my sister and I have conversations about Crystal B.'s jewelry. That's right, entire conversations. About Crystal B.'s jewelry.

Will you please allow me to show you some of her gorgeous pieces?
Yes?
Why thank you.




Wouldn't this be a great Christmas gift to give to your daughter or granddaughter? CTR stands for "Choose the Right". A great reminder for her to make good choices at all times (this is the Madame Knudsen which we are giving away today):

This is my favorite necklace of Crystal B.'s. Can anyone guess why? You can find a hint if you click here and read the description.

I love this dainty bracelet to match:


And for those of you who follow NieNie. You may recall this beautiful piece she wore in this post on her blog.

Crystal B created it in honor of NieNie. And you can have one too.

And what's even better, if you purchase one today, you will receive FREE SHIPPING. Crystal B. Handcrafted Jewelry is offering free shipping for orders over $25.00. Enter the code "giveaway rocks" in the "instructions to buyer" section when you pay.

Today Crystal B is giving away a Madame Knudsen necklace, one necklace of the winner's choice, one pair of earrings of the winner's choice, and a $10.00 gift certificate that can be used for anything in her shoppe. And this is one reason why we adore Crystal B.--she loves to spoil us and our readers. In fact, she wants to spoil our readers everywhere, so no matter where you reside, you can enter to win up to FOUR times today.

For one entry, leave your first and last name in a comment.
Example: Jane Doe

For a second entry, please visit Crystal B. Handcrafted Jewelry's Etsy Shoppe here. Look at all of her beautiful vintage pieces and then return to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and an item you wish you owned from Crystal B. Handcrafted Jewelry.
Example: Jane Doe: Decisions, decisions. But I would want to get a whole slew of Crystal B.'s delicate earrings. Including the Miss Mikelyns, the Chloes, the Mrs, Rasmussens (my mom has these and loves them--in fact, she says she hasn't taken them off since she received them--they go with everything)

For a third entry, please visit Crystal B.'s Etsy Shoppe here and mark her shoppe as one of your Etsy "favorites". Once you have done this or if you have already done it in the past, return to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and "Favorite".
Example: Jane Doe: Favorite

For a fourth entry, you ready for this? I have the Swine Flu!! I had a fever of 103.5 last Thursday night so my husband took me to the InstaCare and my tests came back positive. So for a fourth entry, in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and if you have had the Swine Flu, if someone in your family has had it, or if it is going around in the area in which you live.
Example: Jane Doe: Now that I have experienced the symptoms, I think my son had it in September. At the time I took him to the doctor's and they tested him for Strep, but then they told me he might have Mono and didn't mention the Swine Flu. Here are my symptoms: It started with pain in my chest and throat and eventually the pain was so bad it felt like they were on fire. I have had body aches and pretty severe headaches (and I feel the worst at night). We have heard from about twenty different sources that you should gargle with salt water to prevent getting it. So my husband has been gargling away. Wish us luck (and health)!

The four winners of the jewelry from Crystal B Handcrafted Jewelry will be announced Tuesday, October 27th. Please visit us then to see if you are our winner and to discover our new giveaway for the day. Thanks!

No one in my immediate circle has had swine flu (knock on wood.) I do have some friends that have had it, but they are at least 75 miles from me. I'm generally in the school of thought that the hype about swine flu is a device to distract us from everything else we've been complaining about; you can die from pretty much anything if you don't seek appropriate help. Kuddos to you for getting the right help and taking care of yourself.
