{GIVEAWAY: Threes and Fives Jewelry}

- - THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED - -

I'm so excited to finally announce this giveaway and get things going!! I'm so happy to share this great shop with you and for you all to get to know the owner :-)

I've been a long time customer of Threes and Fives since she started her business back in Sept 2010, Kayla's bead choices are gorgeous and if you don't see something you like or want, she will get it! Here are just a few of the bracelets that I've come to own over the past few months. I absolutely ADORE them...
She originally started with just doing bead work creations until recently, when she decided to expand customizable options by adding metal stamping to her list of items available. Here are just a couple of the new beauties...
To celebrate these new options, Kayla wants to sponsor this giveaway to give one of you a chance to win a customized, hand stamped metal necklace! But before we get into that, I wanted Kayla to give a little bit of an introduction for herself, so take it away Kayla!

------------------------------

Hi to all of Caty’s fans and followers! 

First, I’d like to thank Caty for all of her help with getting my shop out there and host this giveaway. I started bead-working when I was younger, loved it and have been doing it ever since! Being a mom I don’t always have time to accessorize much, so I wanted to create something that was simple, easy to wear, and affordable. So I started my Etsy shop shortly after our daughter was born. After a few months, I wanted to bring something new in to the shop and challenge myself. That’s when I decided to start metal stamping. It’s been a process but I have really enjoyed creating personal, wearable keepsakes. 

Hope you all enjoy! Good luck!

------------------------------

BUY IT:
http://www.etsy.com/shop/threesandfives - Don't see what you like, request a custom order by email Kayla at threesandfivesjewelry@gmail.com, the possibilities of metal stamping and bead work are endless!

WIN IT:
Kayla at Threes and Fives would like to give one of you a custom metal stamped necklace! The necklace will include two discs (smallest disc 1/2 inch, largest disc 3/4 inch - similar to first necklace pictured above) as well as the option to add a Swarovski crystal. This is a $24.00 value! The discs come in three different metal colors to choose from: nickel/silver, brass and copper. The winner will work with Kayla to choose the design they want :-)

Now let's get down to the nitty gritty....the details on how to win this fabulous necklace! :-)
