Today, December 3rd, we are Giving Away...(CLOSED)


One "All is Well" Necklace,
One Necklace of the Winner's Choice,

and One Pair of Madame Bagley Earrings

from Crystal B Handcrafted Jewelry



The other day I went to lunch with a group of ladies to celebrate one of our friend's birthday. I was sitting by my friend Katrina when another friend said, "Where did you get your earrings?" I had on my red Eliza button earrings from Crystal B so I was positive she was talking to me.

But no, she was not talking to me.
She was talking to Katrina.
I couldn't believe it!

Every time I wear my Elizas someone comments on them and I was astonished that another pair of earrings had upstaged my precious Elizas.
But my shock was only momentarily as I turned and noticed that Katrina was wearing my exact same button earrings from Crystal B, in brown.
At this point Katrina and I both went on and on about how much we love Crystal B Handcrafted Jewelry and how we wish we could own every single item she offers.

Take a look at Crystal B's gorgeous vintage jewelry and you will understand why:

Beautiful

Unique

Funky

Goes with Everything

Vintage

Lovely

My sister also loves Crystal B's jewelry and has purchased several pieces. She recently gave her husband Crystal B's website url and told him to pick something out for her and surprise her on Christmas morning. I love this idea! You give him the idea, yet you still get a surprise.

Today Crystal B is giving away One "All is Well" Necklace, One Necklace of the Winner's Choice, and One Pair of Madame Bagley Earrings. This contest is open worldwide. If you are 18 years old or older, you may enter to win up to FOUR times.

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

For a second entry, please visit Crystal B's shoppe here. After you have looked at her beautiful jewelry, please return to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and something you wish you owned from Crystal B.
Example: Jane Doe: I would like the Madame Farrer Bracelet. Because, once again, it would go with nearly every outfit.

For a third entry, jewelry makes a great gift; therefore, in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and a piece of jewelry that you can find here from Crystal B Handcrafted Jewelry that you would like to give to a friend or family member. You can include the person's first name.
Example: Jane Doe: I would love to give Coke, Sherrill, Sarah, and Brittany the Mrs. Cushing necklace as they all are or all have been a "Cushing"

For a fourth entry, speaking of giving, in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and something nice someone has given or done for you for Christmas.
Example: Jane Doe: My husband, two small children, and I lived in Germany a few years ago. One morning just before Christmas there was a knock at the door. We opened it to find a dragon for my son and a doll for my daughter sitting on the doorstep. Nobody was there and there was not a note attached. We shut the door. A few minutes later there was another knock on the door. I opened it to find my mom, my dad, and my niece standing there. I was completely shocked! I honestly thought it was a dream. Surprises are so hard to keep, yet they had managed to travel thousands of miles without my knowledge to give me the best Christmas present I could have received that year.

The winners of the items from Crystal B will be announced tomorrow Friday, December 4th. Please visit us then to see if you are our winner and to discover our new giveaways. Thanks!

I dont have any stories of what someone has done for me but one year both of my parents were out of work and were struggling to pay their bills and were behind on their mortgage. On Xmas eve my husband went over there and put $1000 in a box on their door step. On Xmas my mom told me about the box and she was crying. To this day she still has no idea who left it there for them. I have no intentions on telling them it was us. Im just glad we were able to help them in a time of need

After we'd been married two years we were finally going to be able to celebrate our first Christmas with a tree, but we didn't really have the money to blow on one. My husband went and got a tree and all the trimmings for me as a suprise - it's been the best Christmas ever.

Whitney said...

whitney mccoy: A few years ago, right before Thanksgiving, my husband lost his job. With two small children I was worried we wouldn't be able to give them a Christmas that year.

One day... a few weeks before Christmas I opened my email to find an email from Amazon. Someone had gotten us a $100 Amazon gift card. The note from the giver was sooo sweet, I was bawling before I even finished reading. I will never forget that women who helped give my children a Christmas. It was definatly the best present ever.

Anonymous said...

Anne Scalarone: On our first Christmas together we lived in a teeny tiny 1 bedroom condo and had no room for decor or a tree or anything, I was pretty sad about this. Brady went out and bought a little tree (about 2 feet tall) and a box of glass ornaments,surprised me, and we decorated our cute little Christmas tree that night!

Whitney Venable: Well, already people are just even thinking about doing nice things. I recently had a baby and went on maternity leave. That left me without a pay check for the month of Nov. Come to find out, we weren't getting a pay check for December either, when we were expecting about half. One of my friends whom I work with, asked me the other day if we were going to be okay and if we needed help with anything. I believe we will be okay, but it was nice to know someone was thinking about us, especially during Xmas time!

Unknown said...

Laurie Medvick: I would love to have the Mrs Rasmussen earrings. I would wear them all the time! (especially since they're ok for sensitive ears)
And they are beautiful!

Sally Dean: A few years ago my son and his wife were coming up with their family on the day after Christmas. Early Christmas morning,I hadn't been asleep too many hours and someone placed a small
child in my arms and another in my husbands. They had driven all Christmas Eve to surprise us for Christmas morning. It was wonderful.

Becky J. said...

Becky Jensen: I think the Madame Farrer bracelet would be perfect for Abby and Julie. And maybe my Mom, if I could get her to wear any other jewelry than earrings.

Honestly, I love the notes that accompany gifts almost the most, and my mom writes the best, most personal and heartfelt notes of anyone I know. I treasure those long after I have forgotten what my present was. Can you tell my love language is words of appreciation? :)
