Bead Jeweled - A Fire Diva's Treasury Give Away

This month, the Fire Divas are breaking out all the stops and creating a great collection of beads to be featured in the Fire Divas first ever Etsy Team Treasury Giveaway.

Your are probably familiar with Etsy's treasuries, which are collections of items chosen by individual curators, often with a theme. The Fire Divas are doing something special. Not only are we creating a treasury featuring many of the Fire Divas showing off their interpretation of a "Bead Jeweled" theme, but we are giving them all away to FOUR very lucky winners!

Each winner will receive four awesome beads from this collection. All you have to do for a chance to win is leave a comment on our treasury HERE and "heart" or add all the featured shops in it as a favorite.

Only one comment/person, please! Winners will be chosen at random on August 21, 2011.

The best way you can show your love and support for the Divas is to make sure that you and everyone you know stops by to view this beautiful treasury. Please also take a few moments to spread the news by posting a link to Facebook or your blog, tweet it, StumbleUpon, or any other social media you prefer to use.

WAIT! There's more!!"

Since some of our team members don't have their own Etsy shops, we're also offering a separate Blog Giveaway here to one lucky reader, who will win a wonderful prize from Patrice of Shepherd Creations, seen here.

TREASURIES

Well, it must be my week I'm in five Etsy treasuries at the time of writing this. WOW, thanks to my fellow Fire Divas for including me in their treasuries. A treasury at Etsy is a curated shopping gallery. People link to items they like and that fit in a theme. Not suprisingly, my treasuries are usually lampwork beads. Currently I have a jellyfish treasury, pictured to the left. It was lots of fun picking out the items and putting them together. Check out my jellies treasury at: http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=74706

A couple of the treasuries I have been included in are below. While at etsy find more lampwork beads by using the search term "fire divas."

SPRING TIME, WHEN WILL IT COME?

Ok, so I know spring will come on March 20th, but it seems to take forever to get here. I always look forward to the flowering trees in this area. I love the smell of a cherry tree in blossom, it is not a sweet smell, but a crisp new smell that I love.

Many thanks to Marcy Lamberson and the ladies at the blog Watch Me Create for including my spring etsy treasury on their blog. It is always exciting to see myself mentioned in someone else's blog.

Here is a link to their spring write up.
