Block Party Giveaway: The Vintage Pearl

//  by Jamie C. Martin

This giveaway is now closed. Check back on July 4th for the winner!

Welcome to the Simple Living Media Summer Block Party! We’ve got 20 giveaways across the entire network this week to give you plenty of chances to win!

So let’s get started with a fabulous prize from The Vintage Pearl, a family-owned company handcrafting beautiful jewelry.

The Vintage Pearl was started by mother of four Erin Edwards. She and her husband Ryan create unique handstamped necklaces, bracelets, and keepsakes using sterling silver, freshwater pearls, and birthstone crystals. Their creations are truly amazing and beautiful.

From The Vintage Pearl website:

“The Vintage Pearl began in 2007 as a creative outlet while staying home and raising our kids. It quickly blossomed into a business and continues to grow. I feel extremely blessed to be able to work while home with my kids!”

I adore this lovely necklace I received from The Vintage Pearl–wearing it throughout my day inspires me and reminds me to have courage in the midst of the small challenges that come my way.

Today Erin is generously offering one reader a $100 gift certificate to The Vintage Pearl!

How to Win

Everyone has three chances to win. Choose one or all three!

1. Comment on this post, and answer this question: How long has it been since you received a new piece of jewelry?

2. Follow @simpleschool and @thevintagepearl on Twitter and tweet about the giveaway. Be sure to come back and leave a separate comment with the link to your tweet.

3. Subscribe to Simple Homeschool by email or in your feed reader. Leave a separate comment letting me know you’re subscribed.

This giveaway will end at 11:59 pm EST on June 30th (tonight!) and is open to commenters 18 years or older. We’ll use Random.org to choose winners on July 4th! I hope you win!

    The last piece I received was from my husband. He bought me a replacement set of earrings that a friend had lost. What a great guy I have!!

    About a year ago, I bought myself a pair of stud earrings, because my little one was attracted to the dangling ones and tried to pull them!

    hmmmm….. If buying myself a plastic beaded necklace for $5 at a sale counts, three weeks ago. If you mean REAL jewelry….. about 20 years!

    My husband resized my wedding ring for Valentines Day… we’ll call it getting a new piece of jewlery. He was very sweet to think of my ring.

    I got a necklace for my birthday last year b/c I told my husband the exact one I wanted. Aside from that, I think the last piece of jewelry I’ve received is my wedding band (almost 6 years ago).

    It’s been two years since receiving a piece of jewlery that didn’t cost five dollars from Claires!
