Bloggy Giveaway time!

Welcome Bloggy Giveaway-ers!

I think this is my fourth Bloggy Giveaway and I couldn’t be happier to do it again. I’m a comment junkie, so a week of comments-by-the-minute is always OK with me!

Let me introduce myself: My name is Nancy. I’m a mother to three, jewelry designer, all-things-purple lover, LDS, sister to five, chocolate lover, Etsy shop owner, TV junkie, avid reader, and craft lover (in no particular order). I blog about all of those things and more. I try to blog about real life – not just the good days but the kinda disastrous ones, grumpy ones, wanna-lock-my-children-in-a-closet ones, as well as the picture-perfect days. In fact, the pictures of my kids are just a bonus for you!

On to this time’s giveaway! How about some beautiful jewelry? Say…a bracelet?

Here’s a picture
or you can check it out here in my Etsy shop for details about it.

To enter you need to cruise by my Etsy shop, Chic Made. Then come back here and leave me a comment. That’s it. I’m not going to make you leave me some compliment or anything, I’m just taking you on your word that you’ve stopped by my shop and taken a look. Keep me in mind for Christmas gifts. I’d be happy to personalize something for you, design something from scratch, or adjust sizing anytime. As a matter of fact, I’d be thrilled to do it. Really. I love making jewelry. It makes me happy.

So that’s it. Leave me a comment. I’ll choose a winner Saturday morning, November 1. If the winner doesn't give me their address by Tuesday morning, I'll pick another winner.

And to help lure you into my Etsy shop, here is a sampling of some of my work: (click on each picture to be taken to my Etsy shop and see the details about each piece.)

Handmade jewelry is always so much more fun then the shoppe stuff. And tends to suit outfits better for everyday wear XD

Hi! I've browsed through your Etsy shop several times and have my eye on a few things. It's funny this bracelet was one of the things I picked out as my favorite, along with the necklace it goes with. It makes me want to go out and buy a cute sweater to match. Beautiful work, you go girl! :)

Hi!! Nice to "meet" you. Thanks for introducing yourself. I love to find LDS sellers on Etsy. :)

I think your bracelet is lovely, and something even *I*, the person who typically goes jewelry-less, would really enjoy wearing it. I also saw a couple necklaces in your shop that I like, so I definitely will keep you in mind for someday down the road.

In the meantime, yay for giveaways! Thank you so much for the chance to win. :)

I really like the coming up roses bracelet. It is just soo very cute! I also like the Purple Checkered Double Strand Bracelet. I am also LDS and have an etsy shop! What I do is completely different from you, though. I do spin art and it is so much fun. I tried the jewelry thing once, and I am not that great at it. I love beads and everything, but I just kinda suck at putting them together in a lovely way. I hope you have a nice day and a great Halloween with your kids!
