Winner!

I finally won a blog Giveaway! Yippee!!

And it was a GREAT win!
A few weeks ago I was the winner at Between Naps on the Porch (Thank you, Susan, for picking my name with your "random generator!")

I won a gift certificate to The Vintage Pearl.

And boy, did I do some shopping.

I can pinch a penny - so I managed to purchase quite a few items.

First off, like most mothers, I tend to buy for my kids before I buy for myself.

So I bought each daughter a pendant with her initial (hand stamped) and a pretty pearl to hang beside it.

Isn't that precious?

PLEASE NOTE: THIS JEWELRY IS ALSO TEEN APPROVED! (now That is a compliment!)

I also bought myself the same pearl, but my round pendant has a cross stamped on it. I added the pendant and pearl to a cross that I already owned - I think they look great, together......

When I commented on Susan's BNOTP blog, I noted that I wanted the double pearl drop earrings.

So, I bought these for ME, only! (Who am I kidding? The girls know where I keep my earrings.)

Here they are........

Love them.

And here is one more picture of me trying to look normal while taking pictures of myself with my new jewelry.....

(If you really want to bring yourself down, take about 30 pictures of yourself - closeup- then look at them on your computer. ugh.)

I'll be back, Vintage Pearl, for these baby spoons - the next time I need a baby gift.



What a great idea.

Thank you Vintage Pearl - I had a wonderful time shopping, and all three of us are enjoying our new jewelry.
