Anniversary Giveaway Details

Win these!

Hope you all had a wonderful, safe Halloween.  As October gives way to November, I am again reminded of my shop anniversary.  It will be my second.  This year, instead of a coupon code, I've decided to have an anniversary giveaway--given the success of my harvest giveaway a few months ago.

This anniversary giveaway is for a set of three small dangles trios in pink tourmaline, citrine, and peridot.  The gemstones are microfaceted, so when worn, sunlight will gently play across these little stones.  All metal is sterling silver; the jump rings are 6mm in diameter.  Retail price for the set is $25.50.

When the pendants are strung on a chain together, they will look like this:

Pretty, right?

Size-wise, these pendants are well under an inch long (see the image below; clear quartz point is roughly an inch long), so they can be worn together or separately on a delicate necklace without looking too large:

The rules: 
Anniversary giveaway entries are from 11/1-11/30.  As with the previous giveaway, each purchased listing in my Etsy shop equals one entry for this giveaway.  For example, if you purchase two listings from my shop, you will be entered twice.  The winner will be hand drawn on 12/1.  Thank you for your support, and good luck!

Quote

Hi, you may have noticed that my Etsy shop is on vacation until 7/20, without actually being in full vacation mode (where my entire shop would be temporarily closed).  This is my thinking: since my month-long Christmas in July Sale is in full swing, it truly wouldn't be fair to temporarily close up shop for a week and have the sale last for only three weeks.  Since there are only four full weeks this month.  You know?

 In the meantime, away from computer, I go, but not before I conclude this post with a quote that has deeply resonated with me about the intricacies of creation and interpretation, how one could never truly stand for the other:

"Works of art are complex events; their true complexity is revealed in criticism and its attempt to circumscribe the boundaries of art.  Criticism idealizes representation and consequently distances the viewer from actuality.  This is evident in the way marginalized discourse has been used to reduce complex experiences to overarching themes that relieve us of the responsibility of having to deal with the works themselves."

-Charles Gaines, from The Theater of Refusal: Black Art and Mainstream Criticism

If you are wondering what those bare-looking stalks are in the photo, they from are my Thumbelina Leigh Lavender plant.  Without the identifiably aromatic lavender buds!  Oh, the lengths I will go to for an interesting photo.

BOGO Sale through the End of February

Although the 20% off my entire Etsy shop and the half-off red and pink pendants sale has ended, I've decided to have another shop-wide sale, so I can make room for new spring designs!  No coupon codes necessary.

It's very simple:
BOGO (buy one, get one free) through the end of February!

I will refund the lower priced item and its "with another item" shipping and handling fee (excluding the initial $2.75 shipping cost) through PayPal once the items are purchased.

This beauty just sold!  I have more raw citrine pendants for sale in my shop.
