TrinketsByDana Feature and Giveaway!!

Hiya guys! How has your weekend been? Mine has been pretty great! I was involved with two different trade days on two different Etsy teams and that is always fun...but, I digress. You are all excited about the giveaway. Well, I have to tell you it is going to be wonderful!


Dana is a really cool girl! She is a Psychology and Anthropology major and has a great attitude about life:  "Do what you want and say what you feel. If no one makes it out alive, then we should at least have fun along the way."



Dana has a fun blog that is all about everything! She does not have one things she loves - she loves it all! Isn't that a great way to create? Do it all! Origami, Jewelry, Photography, Painting! She does it all.




Dana says that one of her favorite dreams is to become a Renaissance woman. To live her life painting in a loft and singing the day away.


So, now for the giveaway! Dana is offering up 100 of her adorable puffy stars!! One of you lucky readers will be the proud owner of these lovely little trinkets!!


These stars are great for decorating! You can string them and make an oh so pretty garland. Stick them on a toothpick and make cupcake decorations! Put them in organza bags, decorate a cake, throw a handful on each table for some color, or put them in display vases for a special touch.


Good luck everybody!

Amazed

Okay, so I totally suck...I know it too. I just saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 tonight. And I have to share some love for Rowena Ravenclaw's Diadem!
I mean! Isn't it fantastic?! I need to know who designed it. This diadem is so wonderful! It says "Wit Beyond Measure, Is Man's Greatest Treasure."
They had it a Comicon this year too! How cool is that? A piece of jewelry being so famous. Maybe people will start wearing them again. I would so love people to wear diadems casually!
I would also like to see some more detailed photos, but I could not find any. Have you seen anything better?

What are your thought on diadems? How about the last Harry Potter movie?

Thursday Treasury

It always surprises me when I get an Etsy convo saying "I put your item in my treasury!!" It is never anything I am expecting, but I do always love it. The great thing about being put in a treasury is that your item is seen by more people and there is a better chance of it selling. The treasury for today is called "Feel the Calm" and features one of my memory wire bracelets! Have a look:
So pretty!
On another similar note....I feel like my photos are nowhere near good enough to be put into treasuries like this one. My pictures look so bad :( I need help!!
