Oval Necklace Contest

This contest is closed but a new one starts next week!

I was watching my nephews play a game, they’d just learn about manners. It went something like “Please will you pay me $20 for landing on my property” “Thank you” “You are welcome.” What could’ve been a tense situation was sweet & funny. It made me realize that I forget to say these things in the most basic human interactions with my family. With strangers I usually remember, but with family not so much. I’ve been trying to do it more & it’s made a lot of difference just in my everyday life.

This is one of the reasons that I give away jewelry every week, I think that a little kindness can go a long ways. Whoever wins can keep the jewelry or give it away to someone else. Entering the contest is as easy as just leaving a comment with who you would give this to & why or a random act of kindness.

The prize this week is a sterling silver oval necklace with sterling chain. The pendant has a paisley pattern laser etched into 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.

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.

Entering the contest is as simple as reading the rules & then leaving a comment with who you would give the jewelry to & why or a random act of kindness. The winner can keep the jewelry or give it to someone else. I’m a naturally sarcastic person who is trying to find the good in people instead of being pessimistic all the time. There are hundreds of random acts of kindness all around us but it’s just a matter of noticing them among all of the bad.

The prize this week is a sterling silver liquid silver 16″ necklace. It has blue lapis accents & a small shell pendant.

Amethyst Cabachon Earrings Giveaway

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

I’ve been watching the stock market a lot since last fall, probably like most Americans. I’ve noticed a few trends:

  • Whenever I buy a stock it will lose value at a rapid pace.
  • When the market gets the tinest bit of good news, it makes huge leaps.

This is kind of the idea between Random Acts of Bling. Well not my portofolio tanking. It’s more about trying to make little changes that will positively effect someone’s life. I do this by giving away jewelry because I think it can remind people that they are special & it’s just plain pretty. The winner can keep the jewelry or pass it on to someone else. It’s also a place to share good news & remind me that there are good people out there in the world. To enter the contest 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 small pair of amethyst cabachon earrings set in sterling silver.

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.
