Thursday Giveaway...

This week, one lucky winner will take home this treasure trove of goodies courtesy of Beadaholique! Aren't they generous? This is one incredible prize! Up for grabs is an assortment of beads and jewelry-making supplies that were inspired by autumn. I love all the rich, earthy colors. Make sure to swing by to check out these leafy components and other great deals available at Beadaholique.

Since there is quite a lot, I decided to break it down a bit. I think it shows just what an awesome prize this is!

The Beadaholique crew included some colored filigree stampings from Ezel Designs. They are lightweight and can easily be layered like I did in these earrings. Use them to frame and accentuate another component or let them stand alone.

Carved stone leaves add a little bit of luxury to any design. I marveled at this assortment, mixing and matching them to create different effects. Some could be used as pendants, others could be turned into sumptuous bracelet and earring designs.

Beadaholique also included some really interesting metal components like leafy bails, toggles, plated leaves, and some Vintaj natural brass. The oxidized chain is one of my favorites. I love the little metal and glass locket. It's perfect for putting an actual autumn leaf in to wear.

The Beadaholique team included silk ribbons and cord. The silk is soft, colorful and deceptively strong. These would be perfect in designs submitted to the fibers-oriented book Lorelei Eurto and Erin Siegel are cooking up called, A Jewelry Accord.

To win all these lovely goodies pictured above, all you have to do is leave a comment on this blog post. It's that easy! One lucky winner will be randomly selected from the comment section of this post on Monday (November 1st) at midnight EST. Please leave your name and contact information if it doesn't already appear next to your comment. This giveaway is open to all participants, including international readers!

An amazing array of goodies and too bad there is only one winner!! 8-((

They are a good company to deal with, especially when I have to do cross-border shopping.

Yikes, Andrew, what a haul! That's a hugely generous giveaway, and so many people have already commented that I'm quite sure I won't win (I'm one of those people who never wins anything). But wanted you to know I stopped by your blog tonight (after a full weekend with a show on Saturday and visit from my girlfriend Saturday and Sunday, then my dad's b-day today). Hope you're feeling better these days!!!
