Belle of the Ball

Check out the gems (pun intended) I got from 2 Belles and a Bead - an online friend of mine who makes awesome jewellery (well, I guess she makes jewelry not jewellery since she's American and all ... y'all).







Love it!!

I got 2 more pendants too, but the pics aren't on her website anymore, and I'm too lazy to go get my camera.

Now this belle just needs a ball....

Drum roll please......

And the winner of my first ever blog giveaway in memory of Georgia is.....

Jessica!

Congratulations on winning the book and the secret prize which is.....

A pair of earrings from Two Belles and a Bead - one of the Belles is an online friend of mine.

I love her stuff! I bought this necklace and then had her custom design these earrings (which she then added to their online store) - both of which I LOVE and wear a lot. I also had her custom design a Mother's necklace for me. I should've taken a picture of that one too - maybe later.

There's a funny story to go with the earrings I'm giving to Jessica for winning the blog giveaway...

I was ordering myself some jewellery from this site and found a few good deals on some earrings and, in a totally blonde moment, thought they'd make a perfect stocking stuffer for my mom. How is this a blonde moment you ask? My mom doesn't have her ears pierced. Yep. Seriously. Thankfully I remembered this before I gave them to her - wouldn't that have been embarassing!

Thanks to all of you who supported Georgia's family by signing the Petition to Cure SMA!
