So WHAT do you win? A beautiful handmade bracelet by Gems By George (my MIL). The winner will be able to choose which series they would like their winning piece to be from (that means you get to choose the color basically). Also, please note that the winning piece will be from the Gems By George “Classic” line.

Here is an excerpt from my MIL’s blog about her jewelry:

“Every jewelry item I create is part of one of 12 different series. The series names come from the qualities represented by the dominant color in the piece, and some of the names are Strength, Restoration, Passion, Peace, Kindness, etc. It's a long story (I'll tell you one of these days) of how these came to be, but for now, I just want you to know that I pray over each jewelry item, asking God to touch the wearer and bless them in whatever way they need. I will never know, this side of heaven, how this works in individual lives, but I love being able to partner with God in such a manner.”

Gems By George recently created a one of a kind piece of jewelry for a local artist who designed one of the white house tree ornaments to wear to an evening at the WHITE HOUSE! How cool is that!

So now it’s up to you Blog Buddies! You can enter once or up to 20 times! Have fun and I can’t wait to see who wins! Again, entries must be received by midnight (pacific coast time) on Thursday, December 27th. Let the comments and entries begin!

  10. Don't worry Julie, Shannon is oh so fair. Even if I wanted her to cheat, which I don't, she wouldn't. Hey Shan, I typed in the link on my page, but how do I make it an "actual link", where they click on it and it takes them to your page? Also, I sent the email to your other email address. Is that ok?
