2nd Giveaway

Well, it is time for the 2nd giveaway. This is part of a pay it forward and backward scheme of mine to celebrate all kinds of milestones and gratefulness. You can read about it at the first post here.
And the winning post here.

This is a piece I have made specifically to giveaway.

I am going to call it Bella. It is beautiful to me, like the person I named it after.

It is entirely hand constructed by me with copper wire and Cernit beads. The black long tube beads you see are Cernit also. The flowers are too.



It has a handmade signature bead on the eye side of the clasp that says Segal and that is Cernit too.
The necklace is one of a kind. Just like the person I named it after.

To win this beauty you will have to comment on the post. Maybe I should make you all do tricks. Naw!
Just comment.
This giveaway will end on the 3rd of July at 6 pm PDT. I am not staying up till midnight. The night I set it for midnight, I wanted to go to bed early.
PS. I will be deleting duplicate commenters as I go so it is a little easier for me. I still love you!

    Spring flowers are burgeoning in this exquisite copper heart. How delicious it would feel to wear something that shows the renewal of life in such a beautiful form.

    As always, Marie's work shows her her unique and remarkable talent at it's best.
