Druzy Pendant Contest

047.JPGUpdate:  This contest is now closed but a new one will start on Monday.

This morning I wasn’t very nice to someone. I wasn’t mean, I wasn’t even thinking about them, I was just tired & didn’t feel like being awake yet. The person smiled at me & wasn’t effected by my general grumpiness. Within minutes my entire day had turned around & I was smiling & cracking jokes.

Since I’m not a morning person, I have to discover my own ways to pass on kindness. One of these is to give away jewelry at random. Maybe the person needs it, or maybe they just like the piece & it makes them smile & feel special. The winner can either keep the jewelry or pass it on to someone else. The contest is easy to enter just read the rules & then leave a comment with who you would give to & why or a random act of kindness.

The prize this week is a druzy quartz pendant set in sterling silver with a 16″ sterling chain. Apparently, druzy doesn’t photograph well, but it looks like the inside of a geode, this one has all kinds of colors in 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. 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 & Amethyst Earrings Contest

Update:  The random number generator chose Stephanie to win the earrings.  A new contest will start on Monday.

With thanksgiving coming up, it’s easy to be stressed out. I don’t even think we’ll be able to have cranberry sauce straight out of the can this year. I don’t even know how to make cranberry sauce if it doesn’t involve opening a can. It’s easy to get caught up in the little details & forget that it’s a day to be thankful.

Every week I give away a piece of jewelry at random that will hopefully inspire someone to make their life or someone else’s a little better. The winner can either keep the jewelry or pass it on. To enter the contest first read the rules then leave a comment with a random act of kindness or who you would give this to & why.

The prize this week are a pair of small genuine citrine & amethyst earrings set in sterling silver. Citrine is the birthstone for November.

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.
