Jewelry Giveaway: Rose Accessories by Made By LinLin

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to Brenda Witherspoon for submitting the randomly chosen 178th entry. If summer is rushing by you, take a moment to stop and smell the roses. Or rather, pick the rose colors. Lindsay of Made By LinLin is giving away a prize pack of pretty rose accessories. One lucky lady will win 2 rose stud earrings , 2 bobby pins and 1 brass ring - in any color she chooses! Gaze upon all 24 available colors through Lindsay's rose color chart . The rainbow is so beautiful - I don't know how anyone could just pluck one! Judging by the 5,000+ sales in her Made By LinLin Etsy shop since November 2011, most customers can't just pick one piece of handmade jewelry from her studio in Vancouver, Canada. It helps that her prices are lower than many flowers grow to the ground! Making affordable, quality jewelry is very important to Lindsay. She is the happiest she's ever been, being able to design and create products for people of all ...

Friday Finds, National Dance Day Style: Red Dance Shoes

Better step into your dancing shoes, because National Dance Day 2012 is tomorrow, July 28th! I'm starting off the celebration by going out with my fellow belly dancers tonight. We're shimmying to a bar, so I'll be shaking the dance floor with my snazzy skull sneakers instead of barefoot like usual. Although belly dancing barefoot feels more authentic, I don't have the daintiest feet. Today I tip toed over to Etsy to see what sexy alternatives are available. Goddess style and barefoot sandals stood out amongst the red dance shoe search. The other two pairs spectacularly stomped into my memories, reminding me what fun I had as a child ballerina and tapper. 1. Leather Lace Up Sandals Candy Apple RED Metallic by Bella Caribe 2. Upturned Toe, Red Satin and Lace Cut Out Overlay Slippers, with Red Suede Soles, Ballet Ties by Uku 3. Decoupage Tap Shoes Capezio Mary Jane Red Crybaby Wet Look Size 61/2 7 by Normal Mix 4. Tatted Barefoot Sandals - Barefoot Heart by...

Makeup Giveaway: All Natural Mineral Cosmetics by Madison Street Beauty

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to Rita Szlovencsák for submitting the randomly chosen 57th entry. Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free. Amethyst, an opaque vegan eyeshadow of medium purple, would be my first pick, fins down. Look at those sparkles! If choosing only five colors is too difficult, why not try some natural samples first? The owners, Bridget and Rhys, are currently celebrating their one year Etsyversary and offering an astonish...

Sponsor Finds: Cupcake Shirt and Dessert Accessories

If you haven't branched out to Four20moon Tie Dye , Beadmask and Viridian Muse yet, you are missing out on some excellent eye candy. My sponsors are definitely the sweetest sellers around. Four20moon Tie Dye Shop's cute cupcake shirt would make a one of a kind birthday gift for a friend with a sweet tooth. Cupcake design has been hand tied then dyed on the front of an Extra Large (46-48 inches around) lightweight Fruit of the Loom tag-less undershirt. Pink cupcake is topped with a fire red cherry and surrounded by stripes of baby pink, hot pink and brown shades. The back of the shirt has been left white. Beadmask's bead embroidered cabochon earrings are more decadent than the raspberry truffle dessert the design is named after. The vintage faceted glass cabochons are a deep red with an aurora borealis finish that flashes amber and blue when light dances across it. The stones are surrounded by glass seed beads in shades of bronze and red. At the base of each earring ...
