November Giveaway Challenge

Everyone loves a giveaway and challenges often stimulate creativity in directions we might not have considered going using components we may never have used before.  Free advertising for your Etsy shop or website is good too. So, why not combine the three into one, I reasoned?

This giveaway challenge will do that.  To participate, add a comment to this blog post expressing your interest and your name will be entered into a draw for one of six surprise packages that will include a clasp and a few beads to get you started.  The selection will be small and leave you open to incorporating a number of elements from your own stash to create a unique, one-of-a-kind sensation.

Here's the catch.  You must agree to design and execute a piece of jewelry using all the components you recieve in your package.  You will then send me a photo or two of your creation to post on my blog on November 30th.  When you send your pics to me by e-mail, please include a link to your blog, Etsy shop, website, etc.  I will include those in my blog post.

Increase your exposure to potential customers, get free stuff AND have fun all at the same time!  What could be better?

I don't like having to say this BUT please do not enter if you are unwilling or unable to fulfill the simple requirements, as stated above. Those who renege on their committment will be exempted from any future giveaway challenges.

The final draw will take place one week from today on Monday, October 22nd and the packages shipped out the following day. I can't wait to see what you will do with your surprise packages!  

P.S. Please make sure that I have a way to contact you if your name is drawn as one of the winners.  No e-mail address and I will have to select another name from the hat.
