The KC ETSY TEAM is proud and excited to feature COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS - 18 weeks of wonderful blog giveaways from now until December! Don't miss your chance to win some fabulous free goodies from this very talented team!
WEEK FIVE: Win the item of your choice (up to $15) from Shirley Borchardt at Jewelry by Shirley! Shirley started making jewelry about 3 years ago when her mother-in-law bought her a jewelry kit for Christmas. According to Shirley, "The beads themselves inspire me. I look at the materials for a while and an idea just comes to me."
"I don't know that I have a favorite item. I love all of my creations. I often joke with family and friends that I hate to sell my jewelry. I myself am a jewelry lover and collector. I have always found it difficult to find quality jewelry at affordable prices. The jewelry that can be bought cheap is usually mass produced cheaply and breaks easily. My jewelry is quality without the cost."
TO ENTER THIS CONTEST AND WIN YOUR CHOICE OF ANY ITEM IN HER SHOP, simply visit Shirley's Etsy Shop shirleyborchardt.etsy.com and choose your favorite item in the shop, then post a comment about your favorite item here. BE SURE TO INCLUDE contact information (your e-mail) in your post, so we can notify you if you win. For an EXTRA ENTRY, become a follower of this blog, and BE SURE TO POST A SEPARATE COMMENT letting us know you've done so. For yet a THIRD entry, Tweet on Twitter or blog about this contest on your own blog, including a link to this blog, and BE SURE TO POST A SEPARATE COMMENT letting us know. Contest closes at 11:59 p.m. Central Time on Sunday, Sept. 13, 2009. Monday Sept. 14, a winner will be randomly drawn from eligible entrants and notified by e-mail, and the winner's name will also be posted here. Winner has one week to contact Shirley to claim his/her prize. Contest open to U.S. residents. Keep checking here for our weekly drawings!
And the winner of this week's drawing is LoveCharlesVintage! Congratulations!

Too many cute wire wrapped ones! But I'd have to say the copper turquoise cages are spectacular!
ReplyDeleteWow, it's hard to choose a favorite. I think Gumdrops is my favorite closely followed by Symphony, Elegance, Under The Sea and Sylvia.
ReplyDeleteShe does lovely work.
What lovely jewelry pieces she creates! I adore the Symphony Necklace very much.

I know several people that have received custom jewelry from Jewelry by Shirley and it fit their personalities perfectly. My mother-in-law wears her necklace regularly to church and my son never takes his "Island Getaway style" braclet off. Bravo! Nice stuff.
