Block Party Giveaway: The Vintage Pearl

June 30, 2010 //  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!

    We’re lucky enough to have a fantastic jewlery designer in town that is loved by the celebrity magazines, but also has a “bargain” bin where us locals can pop in and buy un-sold stuff for dirt cheap prices. That’s my “go to” spot for buying gifts these days, and I hinted enough to get my husband there for Mothers’ Day. =) However, I can’t afford the really beautiful things and this Vintage Pearl collection is divine!

    Ooooooh how I love the Vintage Pearl! I can’t complain about how long it has been since I received a little bling bling since my dear husband purchased me some lovely marcasite earrings only a month ago. But our tastes do slightly differ and while it’s the thought that counts… I would l-o-v-e a necklace with our family’s names on it. The style of their jewelry is so “me.” Elegant, but simple, & unexpected.

    I always look at jewelry and admire it, but then your mind goes to all the other things that your house, or car, or kids need. And I’d much rather receive it as a gift than get it for myself. It has sentiment when you get jewelry from someone who loves you.

    Haha! I think the last time I received a “new” piece of jewelry was over 5 years ago, on my honeymoon. We missed our flight to get on our cruise, and ended up staying with my husband’s grandma’s cousin overnight. We got in very late, and then had to wait in a long line to fill out paperwork for our luggage the airline had lost. By around midnight, we were finally ready to leave and our dear host and hostess took us to their home. The next day, they had to prepare to a party they were throwing, but took the time to cook us a huge lunch and then to the mall to get some more clothes. At some point, our host gave me a very large fake diamond ring.
    It was so kind of him, and nice to have something that was okay to lose, while we were gallivanting about the Caribbean!

    I think its been about 2 years since I got new nice jewelry. But I dont usually wear it. If I won this it would be a gift for one of the grandmas.

    I received a necklace in 2006 when my 3rd child was born…
    I think that was the last significant piece of jewelry i can remember.
    Thanks!

    I love this jewelry and I know its been 6 months or more since I’ve bought my last piece of jewelry and that’s only because I went to a party and bought some earrings to help my sister! I don’t buy it that often so this gift certificate would be fantastic!

    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!

    these pieces are lovely! i don’t remember the last time i received a piece of jewelry as a gift, but just two weeks ago, on our first vacation away from the kiddos, i bought myself a necklace from a street vendor in NYC.

    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).
