Marcasite Earring Contest

This contest is closed but a new one starts on Monday! One of the questions I ask the most is “Do you think something good is going to happen?” I just need hope that there is the slightest possibility of things turning around or changing for the better to give me strength. That’s why I give away a piece of jewelry at random. The winner can keep it or give it away to someone else. Hopefully whoever receives the jewelry is reminded that good
things can happen. To enter the contest just read the rules and leave a comment with who you would give this to and why or a random act of kindness.

The prize this week are sterling silver and Marcasite antique style earrings.

The Rules:

Please don’t sell the jewelry, it’s to make whoever receives it feel special. The winner will be chosen by a random number generator at 6pm on Friday Mountain Time.

Contestants should be over 18 & live in the lower 48 states because I’ll be paying shipping. I won’t sell or abuse your mailing address.

If you’ve already won a Random Act of Bling, you can win again, but please give the jewelry away at random.

Please leave a valid e-mail address, this is how I will contact you if you win. The subject line of the email will say something like “Random Acts of Bling: You Won” I’ll also announce the winner in a blog post. If I can’t reach you then I might have to relist your prize.

If you want to link or stumble this post it would be appreciated but is not required.

Comment/trackback/link should be about a random act of kindness or who you would give this jewelry to & why.

  1. These are beautiful…and I have just the person in mind that they could cheer up. Something good is definitely going to happen :)

  2. This time I have a secret friend at work. the earrings would be for her a happy. She seldom buys things for herself. She would be so surprosed. They look just likd something she would enjoy.

  3. Hello! I have a doctor’s appointment coming up.
    His assistant that takes me to the exam room and does the preliminary tests is always so gracious to me. How fun to surprise her with your lovely earrings. Many thanks, Cindi

  4. I would give these earrings to my aunt. She is an amazing woman who is like a second mother to me. I know she will love them and she really deserves something like this.

  5. A friend brought over tons of food after my little guy was born. She would love these.

  6. These are gorgeous! I love sending small anonymous gifts in the mail, because who doesn’t love getting good mail? I was once the recipient, too – about a year ago, when we were going through a really hard time, we got $100 in Visa gift cards in the mail. I have a suspicion of who sent it because of the postmark, but never asked because it was obviously supposed to be anonymous. Can I be selfish and say I’d keep these for myself?

  7. My fiancee is stationed on the USS Nimitz and left a month ago on a six-nine month deployment. I love him very much and knowing that he’ll be back someday is enough to keep me going, but I still can’t help but feel down. I would love to wear these beautiful earrings a few times, then pass them on to another Navy wife or girlfriend. We girls gotta stick together!

    Thank you so much, I’ve been a long time reader, and you do so much for womens’ self esteems everywhere! You’re a beautiful person.

  8. My neighbor just had knee replacement surgery and I’m sure these would cheer her up when she gets home tomorrow.

  9. We won. Yeah!!! Thanks Sara/Bling on a Shoestring Jewelry!! My neighbor is going to be bowled over happy (and hopefully won’t hurt her new knee replacement!) Wahoo. I emailed my address. Thanks again! Can’t wait till they arrive.

  10. My sister just had her apartment broken into, and is now living with my dad. I would love to help her start her new jewelry collection!
