My prize arrived

January 9, 2008 by Jen

Around Christmas time I entered a competition to win a pair of handmade earrings and I won. So I was very excited today when a little package arrived with an airmail sticker on because I knew my winnings would be inside.

Stacie, the earrings arrived safe and intact and have been in my ears ever since. I keep wanting to look at myself in a mirror to admire them as they are so gorgeous.

Of course I took photos.

Earrings

I also took a photo of me wearing them so I could submit them for the Self Portrait Challenge that I started last year, the theme being celebration. This fits because I won the prize at the Christmas celebration time of year and because I very rarely win anything so that’s good enough reason to celebrate in my book.

So here’s a photo I took of myself wearing the earrings.

    Yea! I am so glad you like them! Those are freshwater pearls that have been dyed a wonderful taupe color that I just love pairing with the oxidized silver…oxidized silver acts as a complement to any color you put it with, so women with lovely warm tones can still wear silver too….
    They look just how I pictured them with your beautiful face…
    It is so cool knowing that they were in my studio last week and now they are all the way over in Australia…
    Glad you like them!
