Shiny, Pretty and Sparkly...oh my!



When it comes to favorite things, pretty and sparkly almost always tops my list.

Oh, you too?

Well, I have a sterling silver pendant on an 18" box chain, set with a blue topaz that I'm giving away to one lucky commenter this week. (I have a similar necklace that I wear almost daily.) It looks just as great with jeans as it does with dresses and would make a great gift for yourself or someone you love. Here's what it looks like:



For a chance to win this pendant, simply leave a comment on this post by 10 p.m. on Friday, August 1st. One comment per person please (duplicates will be deleted). You do NOT have to have a blog to play along, but please provide a valid email address where I can contact you. I'm willing to ship internationally, but I'm not sure how the duty and taxes will work on your end. (If you're willing to handle that part, please feel free to enter.) I will randomly draw a winner and notify you via email over the weekend.

Thanks for visiting and, if you're new here, feel free to stop back when you have time to look around. Don't forget to check out all the other fantastic prizes up for grabs this week as part of the Bloggy Giveaways Carnival. Good luck!

Love the necklace, but the post "The Gift" is better (although I'd take the necklace if luck shines :-). I needed that post tonight. Instead of helping my five year old with his new goldfish, I thought I MUST clean the basement. But I went through a similar transformation. Lovely to see that affirmed here!

I have only recently acquired an appreciation of all things silver when it comes to jewelry. This is lovely and would make a nice addition to my still small collection of silver jewelry – I don’t have a single silver pendant yet.

Thanks for offering this up to some lucky winner!
