Free stuff

One compelling reason to start a blog was to give props to the people who have created/hosted awesome things that I have won through internet giveaways that I've entered*.

Admittedly, the effectiveness of said props would be much greater if this were a blog that people read, but perhaps that will happen in the future, at which point people may stumble upon this post and check out these awesome artists.

Win the First: Simple Elegance Earrings from Bisou Bisou Beads




Claire of Bisou Bisou Beads gave these earrings away as a way to advertise them as a new addition to her shop. She gave me my choice of pearl color and I opted for the green (a color I've become quite fond of lately - must be the residual effect of the Wellesley class of 2009 on me). I just received them today, and they are indeed as awesome as pictured.

Claire's blog can be found here, and her jewelry can be viewed and purchased at her Etsy site.

Win the Second: Rock and River earrings from KneeDeepOriginals




The EtsyVeg team host a giveaway every week, and a couple of weeks ago they featured these earrings from KneeDeepOriginals. Rebecca, who owns the shop, uses lots of natural items in her works, and it leads to some beautiful and original designs (like these earrings!)

You can check out her shop here, and find not only more of her jewelry, but also notecards and original paintings.

* It's a bit of an addiction. I could say I'm working on it, but that would be a lie.
