Review and Giveaway!

Good morning!

As promised, I have an awesome giveaway for you today! I want to thank you for stopping by.


Look around my blog. Do you notice anything about the fonts I use? 
Jane Austen's handwriting and an old typewriter font.


And although, there is not font (that I know of) that depicts a love of jewelry, if there were, I might just use it on here. I love jewelry, especially the unique, bold or quirky kind.


Therefore, when I discovered an etsy shop called Keys and Memories
of course, I fell in love right away.


Here are a couple of images from the Keys and Memories etsy shop.








I know, awesome, right?



Elizabeth, the owner, sent me this necklace to review.




You should know that I had never seen an actual piece of typewriter key jewelry before I received this necklace. I had only seen pictures. And, although I have been thinking of getting one for some time, I really didn't even know what to expect.

I was pleased to find that the necklace retains the characteristics of the typewriter key it is made from. It has the vintage look to it, while still being well made. (You know my 4 kids have put this to the test!)

I have been surprised how many people have commented on this unique piece. 
Of course, I love it!


Elizabeth has generously offered to give a custom wax seal pendant to one of my fabulous readers!



Here is what you have to do to enter this giveaway:



Mandatory
Visit the Keys and Memories etsy shop, then come back here and leave me a comment telling me which of Elizabeth's beautiful pieces would you be most thrilled to find in your stocking 
on Christmas morning.



Extra Entries
(optional)


1) Log into etsy and "heart" Keys and Memories


3) Blog about the giveaway and / or post it on your facebook wall. (1 entry each)

4) I will give one additional entry to each person who links up to Theme Party Thursday this week. 
The linky is open all week and it's a free-for-all this week!



The giveaway will be open until midnight next Friday (November 12).

Good Luck!

Neat idea and great photos in her shop. I'd probably go with the Letter L Vintage Typewriter Key Drop Necklace.

All of her pieces are so unique and hip! Personally I love the "In One Ear And Out The Other Vintage Typewriter Key Earrings" They sum up atleast one conversation with my children each day LOL :) I love the play on words!
