A pair of handmade earrings!


After all the furore on Folksy about what does or doesn't constitute "handmade" I felt we could all do with a pick-me-up.  I have got this pair of needle felted earrings , handmade by myself as a give-away prize.  What do I want you to do to have a chance to get these beauties?  Well I would like you to look at my Folksy Shop and my FB Shop  (and if not following this blog do that too please) and leave a message on here to tell me what items you like best and why. On the 27th of September I will then randomly select one of you to be the owner of the above mentioned earrings. They have sterling silver hooks and are made of merino tops in a nice teal colour. I have finihsed them of with a pretty little fan shape and some teal coloured beads from Black Cat Beads

i like the felt and glass Anino necklace in turquoise blue. It is really pretty and unusual, nad I like the shape and texture of the heart pendant.

I really like the bead soup http://www.folksy.com/items/2202277-Bead-Soup-challenge-necklace-?shop=yes and I have a strange facebooky thing to report. I have just opened a payvment shop myself - when I went to yours, it was empty. I was logged in to facebook as my business page. When I changed to my personal profile, I could see your shop. Did you know that was how it worked? I didn't! Anyway - on there, my favourite would be the love herats journal. I am a follower of your blog.

I just had a peak in your shop and love the Purple Earrings "Murasaki" - such a pretty colour and great price :) I'm also following your blog now too. I also realised I've featured your bead soup necklace on my blog - it was my first treasury and had a few headaches trying to work out how to link the pics back to the shops they were sold and then when I'd worked out a simple way of doing it I totally forgot to tell the people I featured :/

(Not entering comp - please don't count me, can't wear earrings although they are lovely!)

Hi Hannelore, just responding to your lovely comment on my blog. I plan to sell my papercut tiles - I thought I should let you know in case you were planning to do that too (it's absolutely not a problem for me if you do, by the way!) Just wanted to avoid any potentially awkward situations in future. Now following your blog, take care, Zoe x
