I Love Recycling Vintage Giveaway

GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

New giveaway! I'm really grateful for all the nice comments I've been getting on this little blog of mine so I can't go too long without wanting to give a little something back! This time I wanted to offer the most popular item from my store which happens to also be a great example of why recycling vintage rocks!

Believe it or not, the beads in these earrings are plastic! A very special vintage high quality plastic called Lucite which we know better today under the name Plexiglas. Trust me they look and feel like they are made of ivory and the detail is stunning! They are the prettiest beads i have come across since starting my jewelry business. Considering all the new stock out there it says a lot that a vintage one would steal my heart. 

Vanilla Moon

If you are a crafter of any kind you can discover a fascinating new world by looking into vintage supplies! You would also be doing this earth a favor by recycling vintage.

So on to the giveaway details...
 I Love Recycling Vintage

Contest will be open until February 28th and a winner will be chosen randomly on March 1st.

This time I'd like to know a bit more about you! :
-For one entry leave a comment telling me what your favorite item from my shop is.
-For an extra entry just follow my blog and leave a separate comment saying so.

Remember to leave your contact info in the comment so I can contact you if you are the winner.

    Your shop is WONDERFUL! Just my style... :)

    It was pretty hard to pick a favorite, but I narrowed it down to these two:
