Featured on the Storque - Etsy Finds: Gifts for Mankind

Today was another big day for my Forbidden Fruit Necklace. When I went out on my lunch break this afternoon I read the good news on my i-phone that my necklace had sold. As is usual, after I have greeted my hubby and my beloved Emma I jumped on the computer to see a ton of new hearts and views.

At first I thought I was featured on the front page, but a quick check of my trusty treasury hunter yielded no results so I quickly checked http://www.craftcult.com/ and saw the good news. My Forbidden Fruit was one of the picks for the Etsy Finds: Gifts for Mankind Series under the category for Teachers. Thank you Erin!!! Super Fun Lab - you made my first experience a very good one!

Erin Loechner is one of the bloggers from the award winning Design for Mankind bog. http://www.designformankind.com/ I am happy to say that due to this feature, my necklace is heading out to the Netherlands! This day has ended on a happy note for me. :)

You Don't Know What You Have Til' its Gone....

The phrase you don't know what you have until is gone rings so true to me today. I had been without the internet since Monday afternoon. While I do have my trusty i-phone - my computer definitely has its advantages with the big screen.

My area experienced a power outage and after the power outage my modem failed to work. Comcast came to my house today and while they fixed my modem they encountered bees made the pole their residence. Luckily, the gentleman came back in the evening and now I am live again!

Despite this minor set back, I am happy to report that my first giveaway is off to a really good start and entries are coming in daily. I have cut and paste the details below so that you don't have to scroll down 81 entries to enter.

The first person to post their entry on this post will get two entries.

-----------------------

These earrings were lovingly handcrafted with Art Clay Silver, an eco-friendly form of pure recycled fine silver that allows me to form and sculpt metal by hand. Initially it is soft and pliable, just like clay. Art Clay Silver is hardened once it is fired in my kiln resulting in a one-of-a-kind, pure silver piece of jewelry.

They measure 1.25 inches from the top of the earring wires and retail $26.00.

Only rule to enter is to visit my newly redesigned website or Etsy Store: http://www.destinyscreations.com%20and/or http://www.destinyscreations.etsy.com/ and comment here either with your favorite piece of jewelry or leave a recommendation as to how to improve the site.
