Back to basics give away

Shooting Stars Necklace from MerCurios

In honor of getting back to our roots with the MerCurios jewelry collection, I've decided to give away one of these new Shoot Star Necklaces. The blue goldstone and puffy star pendant measure about 2.75" long and hangs from 20 inches of silver plated chain.

Goldstone is made in a lab by mixing glass and copper.  Although it's man made, the metaphysical properties of goldstone are not diminished.  Goldstone represents luck and prosperity, as well helping to align the base and sacral chakras.  Personally, I just love the way it sparkles.

UPDATE July 17: simply leave a comment below to enter, no need to make any kind of guess.

To enter to win one of these Shooting Star necklaces, simply visit the listing here and then leave a comment to this post with your guess as to how we are getting back to our roots.  Here's a hint: It's all in the copy.  

Good Luck and Have fun!! 

Be sure to leave your email so I can reach you should lady luck fortune you!

One winner will be chosen on July 20.

This is open to international and domestic readers.

Please only comment once and be aware that I have to moderate my comments (we get so may spam comments!), so it will not show up automatically.

I would be forever grateful if you would 'like' our Facebook Fan page here.

Thank you, always.

We Picked a Winner - MomentusNY Giveaway

A BIG congratulations to Erin as she was the winner of the MomentusNY giveaway from earlier this week.  

If you recall, the prize was "your favorite item" from MomentusNY's Etsy Shop.  Erin's favorite happened to be the Gold Autumn Leaf & Fruits Necklace (pictured left).

Wear it well!

Thanks again to all whom participated.  Didn't win this one?  No worries!  There will be many more in the future.

Meet my friend Ivy.

Classic J.Crew - that what's I call her.  Ever so elegant & timeless - thinking of Ivy brings to mind classic movies from 50's.  Kim Novak, Eva Gardner, Audrey Hepurn; each stunning on and off screen - and that's Ivy.

Exact opposites, but oh so similar, Ivy and I are the best of friends and I wanted you to meet her too!  Although if you frequent Etsy, I'm sure Ivy needs no introduction.  The designer behind MomentusNY - Ivy's designs have graced the Front Pages of Etsy a few times since opening up shop in June 2010.

Besides the front page, MomentusNY's designs have been and continue to be featured in countless Etsy Treasuries.  Ivy's designs are a reflection and extension of her - classic movie star meets modern woman.  In addition to designing beautiful jewelry, Ivy is a loving wife and full-time mom to two beautiful girls.

In the spirit of paying it forward, we are having a MomentusNY giveaway.  The giveaway will run now through Sunday, September 19 and the winner will be chosen at random on Monday, September 20.
