I thought I should do my part for the Blogosphere and have a giveaway. It really is the least that I can do after winning a couple giveaways last month.
3 winners will be randomly chosen on July 15th to receive one of three Paisley Lane Handmade Jewelry packages. (That is the little jewelry line I created. FYI)
1st name chosen will have first choice of the prizes - 2nd will have next choice and the 3rd winner will get the remaining prize.
How to enter....
1. Leave me a comment and you will be entered in the contest. If you don't have a blog or a google account then just leave me an anonymous comment with your name and e-mail address.
2. Give me a shout out link on your blog and I will enter your name three times in the contest.
PRIZES!!!!!!
Purple teardrop earrings with genuine amethyst pendant on choker
Green leaf earrings with art glass pendant on leather.
4 pairs of Czech Glass earrings - once pair for each season
As an extra bonus - I will award a couple special prizes to my favorite comments made on any of my others posts (past or future) during the next two weeks.
Enter as many times as you would like.
And while you are here....
And while you are here....
Becoming part of the blogging world has opened my eyes to the fact there are a lot of creative women out there who make some really cool stuff. I had this great idea. Let's trade! Seriously, if everyone who made stuff got together for a little trade action, we could have Christmas shopping done in a week. One of my friends makes these adorable toddler hair bows. I happen to have an adorable toddler. I traded her a few pairs of earrings for a few pairs of bows. We told each other the colors we wanted and sent them off. Voilà.
So let me know if you have something handmade you want to trade - aprons, paper goods, hats, purses, home decor, jam...even jewelry! Whatever! Just email me what you want to trade and how many pairs of earrings you think it would be worth. Or send me a photo of what you want to trade and I will tell you how many pairs I would be willing to trade to you. Whichever. I think that earrings are the easiest "currency" for me, since I price most of my earrings the same, but if you see something on my Etsy account or you have something else specific in mind, just let me know. I have been making earrings like a banshee, so I am ready to go. Just think...shopping and no receipts to account for! Could it get any better!?!
A (very) small sample.
Good luck!

I've totally got to check out your jewelry. I'm an earring FIEND and those thumbnails have some temptations there.
I think we've found a mutual addiction -- my blog, your earrings. This could be bad!

Your stuff is beautiful. I wish I had something to trade. I will had to peruse you etsy shop. Online shopping I can do. Thanks for stopping by.
Your jewelry is gorgeous! Wow!
Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting! Are you serious about your dad? That is hilarious! What are the chances? ;)
I often wonder why they took out the old stuff (merry-go-rounds, metal slides) and then put in these crazy bent metal ladders that look like torture devices. Strange.
Have a great night! :)

Who did you find my blog thru? I like yours, I'd like it even more if I won something:) I will try to think up something to trade, as I am not very crafty (can't trade a makeover or a homecooked meal from this far away).

This is Dave. I want the earrings. I figure after reading the Twilight series, wearing women's jewelry is the next step. You aren't a Mary Kay consultant by chance...
Just kidding - Dave didn't write this, I did! Ha ha! He'll kill me!
I love you Nat! Your little sister.
Whatever. I really do want the earrings! Pick me!
Dave
Love your jewelry! Just my type! I'll be back.
Hi, I saw your contest on my sister in law, Harmony's site. Please enter me :)
Holy Macaroni, my dear! Look how many people are showing you love. Of course you know I'm a fan and I'm posting your info on my blog next!!
I LOVE the leaf earrings and necklace! So fun! I would love to win, so pick me! :)
I make hairbows, too, so let me know if you want to trade for more bows - www.bingabows.com
The necklace and earring set I bought from you a few weeks ago is a big hit at my office. I have forwarded your site to all my office peers.
Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. You have such a cute little girl, and how awesome that you know one of my old college roommates, Kristi. Love your jewelry too.
Any friend of Harmony's is a friend of mine! Your jewelry is adorable! I could use some accessorizing these days. Food splattered shirts and pony tails just aren't cutting it anymore!
Wow great earrings.
Please pick me!
Elder Ballard is inspired by God and I great full that he is. Thanks for the comment on my blog!
I just had a baby and need a "push" gift. I would love any of these beautiful hand crafted earrings.
Okay, you are AMAZING! Seriously! I found your blog through a friends blog and I just fell in love with your jewelry! I hope to be wearing a pair of your earings one day!
I am posting your awesome giveaway on my blog... www.paperbuttons.blogspot.com
I guess I'm a little late to get in on the action. But, I LOVE your stuff, so how can I not. Number 55 isn't bad. :) Great idea. I will put up a Paisley Lane 'shout out' on my blog just for you, well... and because your stuff is pretty amazing.
Beautiful Lovely Jewelry!

Hi Natalie. Got your note and here I am, leaving comments. I also gave you a shout out on my blog, but actually for more than one reason. You are the recipient of a rockin' bloggin' award, so stop by and pick it up -- it's getting heavy.
Love the trade idea. A lot. My friend said she thinks of us as a trade and barter society. I told her she's dern right!I am planning on lots of sewing in the future prior to the holidays and I love to trade.
Wow, your stuff is gorgeous!
Beautiful line of jewelry.......
Wow, I'm impressed.
Woot! July 15th is my 36th birthday, wouldn't winning such lovely jewlery be the best!
Sew Much Fabric, Sew Little Time, pointed my way here. I love what I've seen so far and I'm going do snoop around you blog some more and enjoy all the pretty pictures.
I am entering my mom in. She can't figure out how to do it herself. I think it is the freaky little cursive letters that she has to mimic.
So there you go mom. You are entered. Thanks for visiting my blog...
natalie
I hereby proclaim my paisley lane comment..... i better win.
p.s. you now have a shout out on my blog... so that will be three tickets please.

well even though i don't wear a lot(or any)jewlery. It'd be great to win,then I'd deffinatly wear it for a while at least
I love your cute blog, your jewelry is really great!
um, as the 67th comment on this post, I hardly think I stand a chance. Especially since I've never won a contest in my LIFE. So, that's why I've hesitated to comment. But prove me wrong! I dare you!
Okay - So we weren't the MOST popular at high school - but I've got to say what did they know, really? Now we are amazing. You gotta love the love. We were just hiding behind the flannels and thermals, awaiting our grand debut and now..... "TAH DAH"
Love the new blog layout- looks great. Thanks for using my pics. It makes me really happy.
Randi - well maybe not the most popular. But at least we were in the top 10% - per the year book poll at least :)
Such pretty jewelry - and what a great idea with a contest! I love to win :). Also - enter me in extra times because I gave a shout out to you on my blog!!
Can you see my little comment way down here at the bottom? Your stuff is darling and I would love to be the possesor of such an extraordinary find. I am about to have a bay and since I do not feel beautiful anyway. i need as much dressing on me as possible! Thanks for the fun giveaway.
that was suppose to say baby above! woops! I'm not having a bay.
Good thing your not having a bay. That would really suck to push out.
your jewelry is simply darling. Unique little pieces like yours make me smile. (moreso when i am wearing it!!)
hi! you don't know me, but i'm a friend of Joette's and followed your link in her blog, and tada...you have some great stuff!!

i don't make anything worth trading, but i'll take advantage of the opportunity to spread the word for another friend and share her blog, LILBOOWORKS.BLOGSPOT.COM, she has all kinds of great stuff...
Natalie,
Your jewelry is so cute. We would love to work out some trade action with you. I am use to making my husband make things for me to trade, so this might be a fun change.
