'Humpday' Special - 1/2 off of Earrings with Purchase

Wednesday came fast this week (I love Monday holidays!). I'm offering 1/2 off any pair of earrings with a purchase of a necklace for this week's 'Humpday' special. This sale will run from Wednesday through Friday (this week only). Just mention my blog in the 'Note to Seller' when purchasing anytime May 27 - May 29. Just purchase a necklace and a pair of earrings. I will refund 1/2 the price of the earrings to your paypal account after I receive payment.

If you have any questions, please let me know!

Name My Earrings!


Naming my jewelry has never been an easy thing for me. I can make jewelry, take pictures, market it, etc. But, ask me to name my pieces and I draw a complete blank! We all have our talents and creative writing has never been my strong point (that must have been why I majored in Math in college!).

So, I need ideas. I will be starting a new contest series for 'Name my Earrings' and 'Name my Necklace'. The winner will receive the piece of jewelry being featured. Today's pair of earrings feature a beautiful blue-green quartz teardrop stone wire wrapped with silver wire and hung on silver plated ear wires.

Here's how to enter:
Please leave a comment on this post with your idea. The idea I select will win the earrings. They will then be listed in my shop using the winning name. The contest will end on Tuesday, June 2. I will name the winner on June 3.

Please include your email address with every entry or it will not be considered (I need to know how to contact you!). You do not need a blogger account to enter.

San Diego and Etsy - a Perfect Match!

Wedding season is upon us, and Etsy is the perfect place to find everything you need for your special day! I've been making jewelry for brides and their wedding parties all spring. In fact, I'm designing 8 pairs of earrings this week for a customer in the UK! There are some wonderful Etsy shops based here in San Diego and I've put together a small sampling here.
