Wishes For My Birthday

This giveaway is now closed. The winner is being contacted. Thank you so much for participating.

There are so much hope in wishes. All those dreams that flow in our lives. The 12th was my birthday and instead of wishing for a lot of yarn, diamonds and peace on earth I have made a wish. Not for me but for someone out there in blogland.

This polymer clay chrysalis has sealed wishes inside - you can not get them out without breaking the pendant. The wishes are secret and only one more person will know what they are. Maybe that one is you?

I am giving the necklace away. Only the winner will know what the wishes are. In a little paper roll you will find a text that is a copy of the wishes inside the chysalis.

I love the stories of metamorphosis - that something beautiful can grow even though it seems hopeless.

The pendant is made of polymer clay, textured and antiqued with acrylic paint. It has a little bird and a real pearl underneath it. It is stringed with a leather cord and there are beads on the cord ends.

You simply tie it behind your neck and let those leaf textured beads a part of the necklace.

This giveaway is free (no blogging, facebooking, or other fancy hoops). Just leave me a comment.

Most importantly: Leave your email address if it is not in your profile. If do not leave a way to contact you via email, I will draw another winner.

The giveaway will be open until Sunday 16th of September at 13pm (CET). The winner will be contacted and will have 24 hours to get back to me if you win - or another winner will be drawn.

Thank you for being a part of my giveaway - and good luck!!!
Copy of the wishes is printed in the little paper roll for the winner to see.

  5. Gratulerer med dagen. Synes alltid at du tryller frem de lekreste ting av leire og garn, skulle ønske du fortsatt solgte ting til oss som ikke er like flink med hendene. :) så denne giveawayen må jeg bare slenge meg på.
    Tanken om en hemmelighet gjemt i ett smykke appellerer til den lille jenta inne i meg.

    Håper dagen blir like fin som smykker du har lagt.

  6. I came by to say Happy Birthday when I saw the little cake icon on your Rav profile and found that instead of wanting gifts -- you're giving away gifts! Thanks for sharing your talent and gifts with us and a very Happy Birthday to you with wishes for many, many more.

  9. Gratulerer hjerteligst med dagen!!!
    For en nydelig tanke! At du, istede for å ønske deg selv noe på fødselsdagen din, vil ønske noe for en av de heldige som kommer til å vinne det flotte smykket på din give-away! Du er RAUS!!!
    Åååå, hvor jeg ønsker at det er meg som vinner!!! ;-)

  21. Ej, stort til lykke med din fødselsdag. Jeg håber at du havde en god dag. Jeg så desværre først denne i dag, søndag. Jeg gik rundt i Oslo i går og var lidt ked af at du bor helt derned sydpå. Ellers kunne du nemlig have været med til vores lille træf.Det kunne have været så hyggeligt at træffe dig.
