Treasury Tuesday: In the vast ocean a storm brews ...

I was planning to write this last Saturday so I could schedule it to magically post on Tuesday while I was coasting down the Loch Ness monster at Busch Gardens, but Hurricane Irene and her tornado lackeys rained on my blogging parade. Luckily, the storm blew through my area by Sunday morning and didn't leave much damage in its windy wake. The Ogre and I were in Williamsburg by Sunday night, riding the sushi train at the Peking Restaurant.

My mini-vacay breezed by in a whirlwind of fun. I returned home to find my pirate bookmark featured in a fantastical collection by Rhonda of Midnight's Meadow. I'd welcome more tropical storms if they brought along mermaid sculptures, sea glass hoop earrings and manatee-shaped soaps.

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over! Congratulations to the randomly chosen 95th commenter, Brooke! The season of buds and blossoms isn't over yet!

Jewelry Giveaway: Silver Wreath Ring by Kate Szabone

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over. Congratulations to Linda Meyers-Gabbard for submitting the randomly chosen 702nd entry. Have you dragged your holiday decorations out of the attic and dusted off the Christmas wreath yet? One reader will win the above sterling silver band by Kate Szabone Jewellery and get to hang a wreath ring around her finger during any season. The design is reminiscent of a budding rose branch. The band looks simply lovely on its own, but can be stacked with two or more rings. Kate even makes a matching engagement ring, available in 14k white, yellow or rose gold and set with a rose cut diamond or moissanite stone! Walking through the wonderland of Kate's online shop is a beautiful sight. Her jewelry is inspired by the simplicity and complexity of nature, the Art Nouveau movement and her mother - a photographer, spinner and fibre artist. Kate uses a range of recycled metals, natural gemstones and conflict-free diamonds whose sparkles are even breathtaking...
