Double Giveaway Time...

Well I promised that I would host a giveaway to celebrate THEA's first birthday and here it is, all-be-it a little late. Not only is there a piece of my jewellery up for grabs but also a bundle of gorgeous Marsha Neal silks.



The first giveaway is this lovely bronze and lampwork bracelet which I will adjust to fit the winner. I've called it 'Neptune's Garden' - I just adore turquoise with bronze, the two colours seem to set each other off perfectly and here they bring to mind idyllic Aegean shores (sighs audibly). The bronze urchin focal and charm are made by me and the lampwork beads are by (from the focal out) Kaz Baildon, BB Art Glass, and Rachel Dawes. The links are solid bronze wire and the bracelet is completed with a hand forged bronze clasp and a little bunch of Czech glass flowers because every garden needs flowers, even underwater ones.

There are lots of ways you can enter to win the bracelet, just be sure to leave me a separate comment with a link for each thing that you do with an e mail contact address. You can...

Share this post on Facebook, Twitter or your preferred social network.
Share an item from my jewellery shop THEA Jewellery on Facebook, Twitter or your preferred social network..
Share and item from my components shop THEAtoo on Facebook, Twitter or your preferred social network.
Pin an item to Pinterest
Follow my blog
Like my Facebook page

A bundle of silks up for grabs too...

As you may know know I'm taking part in the first round of Marsha Neal's 'Silk Color Palette Challenge' which gives you the opportunity to create your own palette from Marsha's silks using a photographic image as inspiration. It's good fun and a great way to get those creative juices flowing plus participants have the chance to win fabulous goodies. So, as a second giveaway I'm offering a bundle of silk in my own 'Souks of Marrakesh' colour palette to one random winner who shares Marsha's 'Silk Color Palette Challenge' blog page which you'll find here on their own blog or facebook page. Please make sure you leave a separate entry for this indicating that it is for the silk bundle draw.


Each method you use will qualify you for one entry into the giveaway and 1 winner for each prize will be randomly chosen using the Random.org number generator.

The giveaway will close at midnight GMT on Saturday 14th March and I will announce the winners on Sunday 15th March.

Good luck everyone.

      Rebecca, I don't think you're thick - having looked at it I don't think it's very clear so I've tweaked it...all you have to do is share the the page from Marsah's blog that the link takes you to on facebook, your own blog or wherever and leave me a comment to say you've done so. Go for it!
