You're family and friends will appreciate your beautiful and unique presents far more than say...the same scarf every third person is wearing, because it was on sale at the Super Walmart!

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a snob about saving money...especially now, but when you can find magnificently handcrafted gifts for the same price as the thoughtless mass produced, poorly made, pratically disposable crap out there, just by shopping on Etsy...why wouldn't you?
I mean really! lol!

We have a winner...

Or at least we will tomorrow! We will be picking our monthly drawing winner then so be sure to pop back over and see who won!

Enter to Win a Free Holiday Gift...

Around your neck or on the tree - this is a stunning piece!

For your consideration is this OOAK PENDANT. It is made from a millefiori cane that features a red poinsettia design against a green background with just a touch of gold. This item cannot be exactly reproduced due to the random nature of these techniques! No paints have been used.

This gorgeous piece is made from a combination of high quality polymer clay that has been sanded & sealed multiple times to protect and enhance the item. There is a dime in the photo for size comparison.

Satin cord included!
