because i would like to attract more folks to my blog, and get a better idea of who is already coming, i am hosting a giveaway this week! this lovely piece, features a beautiful glass cabochon with olive green, red, turquoise, and black, made by teresa (at tajones1463.etsy.com). above that is nestled a sweet little turquoise cabochon. there are several sterling balls and a "bullseye" ingot as well. on the back, apropos, is stamped "be free indeed", along with my sparrow and initials. the pendant, which measures 1 1/2" x 1", hangs from a nice, 17" link chain.
so, here's how it works. in order to win, all you have to do is leave a comment under this here post. very simple. i am just going to do an old-fashioned drawing. (my dear hazel, 4 years old, will be doing the actual picking of the name.) if you leave a comment, i will enter your name once. if you become a follower of the blog, i will enter your name twice. if you also tell me how you came to the blog in your comment, i will enter your name 3 times.
the drawing will take place next tuesday, august 25th, at 5:00. i will announce the winner here and you can e-mail me (silversparrowdesigns.gmail.com) with your address so i can send it to you. good luck!

Never had to click that with my reader but it's worth it ;-)
