Giveaway: Anirtak Jewelry

Happy Friday everyone! If you're an employee of the state of GA, happy furlough! I hope, if this recession has forced you to take time of with out pay that you are sleeping in (I just woke up) and that you are having either the laziest day of your life, or the most productive. I haven't decided which I'll have yet. This post was the first item on the "to do" list.
Here to help celebrate the weekend, we have anirtak offering a pretty sweet giveaway. Anirtak is run by Katrina, and I have to say that after she contacted me about a possible giveaway, I could not stop visiting her etsy shop and daydreaming about all of her lovely little pieces.

Courtesy of Katrina, I now own the piece that stole my heart, and made me think of my first pet. I wear this piece constantly!
The Baby Lone Hopper Necklace $16.50


Here are a few of my other favorites...
Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend Necklace $14


Cops and Robbers Lariat $12.50


Snippity Snip Scissors Necklace $10


For our giveaway, Katrina is offering a SET (not one, but two items worth $20)...
Fallen Leaves Lariat


AND
These whimsical, asymmetrical, perfect for autumn matching leaf earrings.


Now, if you're afraid you won't win, but must have a piece of this well made, gorgeous jewelry, Katrina is offering 10% off to ANY D&OC reader for the duration of the giveaway! Simply enter "Downandout10" in the message to sellers, and she'll reimburse you via Paypal! These pieces make perfect gifts, so DO take advantage of the discount!

How to win the leaves set, including a lariat and earrings? (Up to 3 entries!)
1) Visit anirtak and leave a comment telling me what you favorite item is... (1st entry)

2) Are you a reader/follower/member of D&OC? Great! You get a second entry. Simply say, "I'm a reader" and if you're not, why not sign up via that little "followers" widget? (2nd entry)
