Blooming Posies GIVEAWAY!!!







For those of you who know me or follow my blog, you KNOW...I LOVE EARRINGS!  If you love earrings, this giveaway is for you!



Here is a little bit about Blooming Posies, owned and operated by Janna Putzer:


I'm just getting started and would love it if you'd help me grow! :) Ahem, pun intended. :)

I've always been interested in colorful jewelry. As a little girl, I loved wearing jelly bracelets, candy necklaces(YUM!), and my Mom's pretty rings. Now, not so much! I guess you could say my taste has grown up a bit, even if I haven't, literally, I'm 4'11"! All jokes aside, I do still love my Mom's rings--Mom's always have the greatest rings.
I used to be really into making beaded jewelry. I stopped for awhile when life got too busy, but now I'm finding myself with more time, and am getting back into it. Beading is so rewarding and fun. I love making little creations that are one of a kind.
All of my jewelry is sure to be a great gift for someone you love or a fun addition to your own collection.
I love pretty packaging, too, so you can expect your jewelry to be delivered to you in a pretty little way to make you and your heart smile.
I strive toward customer satisfaction, so if you are not pleased with your purchase, contact me so we can work something out. I want you to be happy. If you're happy, I'm happy. :)

Janna's store, Blooming Posies, offers a variety of handmade jewelry and accessories; all handmade, all ADORABLE!  

Here are a few of my favorites:






Blooming Posies sent me the Glossy Little Yellow Rose Earrings:

It arrived in the mail, perfectly and beautifully packaged!  CUUUTE!  


Janna, who has been such a joy to work with, sent me a sweet little note.  It is always neat when an shop puts time and effort into the packaging.  It shows that they are proud of their item; it's sent with a little bit of love :)




My beautiful earrings :)
