A "Freckled Nest" Give Away

Hey loves, and happy hump day to everyone!  I've been a busy bee this and last week with two weddings that I've been working on.  I can hardly wait for the one coming up this weekend.  It's a sweet friend of mine from high school, Heidi, and her talented fiance, Zeb (he just won an Emmy).  We have similar quirky taste and style and their wedding includes: vintage fabric, monochromatic bridesmaids bouquets in all varieties of flowers, tons of milk glass and vintage glassware, and a custom made Lichtenstein style "POW" sign.  I'll try to take tons of snaps to share with you next week.  

But on to the real reason for my post.  I'm participating in a give away over at Freckled Nest this week.  It's a pair of my dangly hand made enameled earrings, so pop on over and check out the awesome booty sweet Leigh-Ann has rounded up for you.  Enter by August 30th and you could win a total of 11, that's right 11 prizes!

Everyone else sent a picture of themselves for Leigh-Ann to post, but not me.  So here I am, hello friends!

A little more about these earrings and my jewelry in general for anyone new to emmy-ray: Yes these earrings are hand made.  People often ask if they are vintage pieces that I just put together.  While these do start out as pre-cut copper stampings, many of my pieces are hand cut and fabricated from sheet metal and wire.  Next the copper pieces get enameled in my kiln and I add high fire decals that are either vintage or of my own design.  Next I put all the pieces together, and wah lah, hand made jewelry goodness!

Good luck, I hope you win!

love, em
