Antique Style Amethyst Ring Contest

This contest is now closed but a new one starts on Monday.

I’m not often inspired by insurance commercials, but there was one by a company that had been in a business a long time & had seen twelve recessions. It said something like “…they’ve noticed that after the fear subsides, a funny thing happens. People begin enjoying the small things in life.
A home cooked meal. Time with loved ones. Appreciating the things we do have. The things we can count on. It’s back to basics. And the basics are good.”

That’s why I try to give away jewelry every week, to cheer someone up in a small way. The winner can either keep the jewelry or give it to someone else. Entering the contest is easy just read the rules then leave a comment with who you would give this to & why or a random act of kindness.

The prize this week is a round cut amethyst sterling silver ring. It’s an antique style setting in a size 7. Amethyst is the birthstone for Feburary.

The Rules:

Please don’t sell the jewelry, it’s to make whoever receives it feel special. 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 soemthing 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.

Marcasite Pendant Contest

Update:  This contest is now closed thanks to everyone who left a comment.  A new contest will start on Monday.

I can’t really remember what I got for Christmas last year, but I can remember what I gave. It’s so fun to see my nephews get excited about picking out the perfect presents for everyone. I try to make Christmas last all year round by giving away jewelry each week to help pick someone up. The winner can either keep the jewelry, or pass it along. To enter the contest first read the rules & then leave a comment with who you would give this to & why or a random act of kindness.

The prize this week is a dainty marcasite butterfly pendant in sterling silver with a sterling silver 16″ chain. The pendant isn’t blurry in person, it is just so sparkly that I couldn’t get a decent picture of it.

The Rules:

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

Citrine Earrings Contest

Update:  This contest is now cloed but a new one will start on Monday.

Every week I give away a piece of jewelry to brighten someone’s day & remind them that they are special. It’s my way of doing a random act of kindness, but with sparkly stuff. I never know who the jewelry will end up with or what effect, if any, it will have. The winner can either keep the jewelry or pass it on to someone else. To enter the contest read the rules & then leave a comment with who you would give this to & why or a random act of kindness.

The prize this week are a pair of genuine citrine & sterling silver dangle earrings. These earrings are about 1 & 1/4″ & feature round & pear cut citrines. Citrine is the birthstone for November.

The Rules:
