LMAJ MONDAY GIVEAWAY

This week's giveaway is this little earthy pair of earrings using my handmade ceramic beads.  I've patina-ted the copper to give these more of a rustic, casual look.  They are very light weight and will match nicely with many different outfits...  The glaze on the beads is a definite favorite for many :O)



So, what do you need to do to win these?  Simple...

*Leave a comment letting us know what kinds of things you like to be involved in with blogs.  For example, do you like competitions, bead exhanges, round robins, etc.?"  

 Simply put, "What is your favorite blog activity?"

*For a 2nd chance, leave a post on your blog, facebook, twitter, etc. and come back and leave a 2nd post here letting us know where you did that.*

That's all there is to it!  The drawing for these earrings will take place on December 27th so make sure that we will be able to get hold of you if you are the winner!

I like challenges - like Lori Anderson's Bead Soup, Lorelei Eurto's Michael's challenge, or Erin Prais-Hintz's color challenge. It gives me something to think over in the idle momemnts of life as I decide what to do (a puzzle, really - how do I make the beads really shine?) and usually helps me find new and interesting blogs to follow.

I also find I like challenges, they usually push me to use colors I might not normally use or a particular material. Challenge is a good thing. I also like lots of pictures, new things artists have made or favorite items...especially components or beads they like or have purchased. I've found some great new sellers that way!!!

I've never participated in a bead swap or round robin but both sound like fun. I really prefer a challenge--one with a theme to get the creative juices flowing.

The earrings are sweet. I agree that they could be worn with nearly everthing.

I love these earrings! I'm new to blogging, and haven't participated in any of the activities yet, but I've enjoyed the challenge blog hops. It's fun to see how everyone interprets the same materials so differently.

I have always been nervous to participate in a bead swap because I worry that my beads won't be good enough so I like the challenges. The get the creative juices going when they get stale. I love all of the challenges I have participated in picking our own beads and being given the beads to use. I would love to do a Round Robin someday.
The earrings are simple and elegant, totally my style!

I am all about the challenge. I like a theme I can wrap my head around. Blog hops are fun (but fair warning! They are a lot of work for the adminstrator!).
Enjoy the day!

I like challenges, especially if there is a prize involved (I'm all about the prizes.) I also enjoy visiting blog hops and seeing what multiple people are doing at the same time.

I do like the challenges although I rarely seem to be able to partake. I did an ornament exchange and I'm really happy with that, my first one!

I too like the Challenges(of course we all love a good giveaway too!!) I may not publicly participate,but I do play along and find it good to step out of my norm once in a while. I also enjoy some personal banter, it helps me to feel like the blogger is a real person,with ups and downs and all arounds.....

As seems to be the general feeling here, I'm one who really thrives on challenges. Of course, I tend to procrastinate while doing those challenges, but that does seem to work out the best for me too ;)

I do also enjoy blog hops too - but only if it's administered right...and yep, kudos to Erin for doing hers so well!
Ta!

I too like the challenges especially the Michael's challenges where everyone uses the same materials. I like good prizes too :)

I like blog hops where I never know what I'll encounter ....I am quite often parked for quite a while on a previously undiscovered blog.

Elizabeth said...

I love organized blog hops. I've "met" so many new designers and artists that way. All the activities ae super cool. Beautiful earrings. Good luck everyone.
