I 'like' my 'fans'

For a long time now there has been a gap between the items that I sell online and the pieces that I sell at craft fairs. Sometimes it's not worth putting things online either because of the admin/postage costs or because they don't take clear enough photographs.


I've been trying to figure out a nice way of showing my online friends the pieces of jewellery that I sell at fairs and in shops. So I'm going to try a giveaway. Yes, free-ness. Goodies, treats, presents, gifts, shiny things! The plan is to send a piece of jewellery that I don't sell on Etsy to one of my Facebook fans. I'll promote on here and Twitter as well, and of course I would love it if you guys would tell people as well. The plan is to say thanks to everyone who supports me and hopefully meet some new people in the process. This piece is made from irregular oval shaped acrylic beads in jet-black and gold. The piece pictured is the one which will be sent.


This is open to everyone (worldwide) who is a fan on my Facebook page at 5pm (GMT) on 15th March 2011. I will randomly select one winner and then put a notification of the winner on this blog, facebook and twitter (isn't social media exhausting!). The winner will need to contact me at vclinde@gmail.com with their postage details and I will send it asap. I'm paying the postage (obviously!) and you'll get a fancy little gift bag as well (see picture). If the winner doesn't want it (why?!) or doesn't get in touch within three days I'll launch the number generator again and pick a second winner. I'm sure I've forgotten details - if so I'll amend asap here or in the comments.

Go forth and spread the word. Fingers crossed we make some new friends, maybe some new fans and someone will get a shiny gift at the end of it!
Happy Thursday everyone.

    Ooh, pretty. Is it jasper or agate?

    Thank you. It's acrylic but I think up close it looks a lot like tree agate!

    Very sadly I have just discovered that Facebook do not allow you to run giveaways or contests through the website. Many thanks to PlaidCupcakeDesigns (http://www.etsy.com/shop/PlaidCupcakeDesigns) on Etsy for pointing this out in the forums. I am going to go back to the drawing board with how to do this now and will re-do the contest as soon as I have it figured out. Might be doing it here in fact! Apologies to all but I don't want to be breaking rules of use. Will send you all much positive energy and thoughts instead!
    All the best,
    Vick.
