March’s Giveaway: $$ Gift Certificate $$

Now that February’s Personalized Gift Box Giveaway has come and gone (Congrats to Jen P!), it's time to move into March's contest.

We are now a week into March and I’m happy to report that some of the snow around here in Wisconsin has begun to melt! Over the weekend, I spotted a dozen Sandhill Cranes poking through a neighboring farmer’s field- a sure sign spring must be on its way!

Easter is coming soon, and Mother’s Day will soon follow. Have you thought about a Mother’s day gift yet? Since jewelry can be a very personal thing, la Naváa will be introducing Gift Certificates! They are perfect for those who are particular, (I’m one those- my fiancée will agree) and great as a last minute add-on gift.

To kick-off la Naváa Gift Certificates, I’m giving away a $15 Gift Certificate for la Naváa’s two shops on Etsy:

la Naváa ~ the Beautiful Jewelry

Into a New Year

'Tis a new year full of possibilities.  2010 was a good year.  It was a year of learning among other things for me.  I believe I am poised well to start off this 2011.

This morning I awoke to an array of harmonized handmade.  Amy Busch aka Sunshine Girl created this compilation on Etsy:

Amy's own one of a kind accessories and decorations made of felt are available in her shop: Soleil Girl. 

Featured alongside the Hope Keepsake Gift Box from la Naváa are peacefully hued creations from fellow artisans on Etsy.

The romantic Baby Blue Lace Cuffs (on sale now) were made by Mariana and Paula, of Branda.  Incredibly enough, Branda's creations are made "by eye" instead of patterns.  This technique was taught to Mariana and Paula by their grandmother when they were children.  Quite remarkable I'd say.

I'd also like to say that quite a remarkable year is ahead, hopefully for all.  As for la Naváa, many new things coming, new shops and promotions.  This week I'll be announcing January's contest... yes, monthly contests for 2011!

And... birthstone jewelry!  I have a number of Garnet styles currently on my creation table. 

I wish everyone joy in the new year.  May many new and wonderful things come.

Much♥Meg
