Giveaway: Enchanted Leaves

Let's begin with the winner of the Peace Flags giveaway...

#39 is S and O Productions! Congrats, I'll be in touch soon. Thank you to Beauty Everyday for offering these lovely flags. Next time you're looking for the perfect bunting, make sure to drop by the shop.
~
This weekend's giveaway comes to us from one of my awesome sponsors, Enchanted Leaves.
This shop has an amazing array of unique jewelry pieces that are perfect for this season (and for gift giving!) Here are some of my favorites:
Anatomical Heart Antique Silver Brooch $6.95


Those Thieving Birds (Limited Edition) $34.95


Utensils $4.50 (sold separately)


Perhaps the most unique pieces in this shop are their Real Life Jewelry Pieces. These pieces are made from REAL leaves using a special process called electroplating in which they are transformed into metal (don't ask me how but they're freaking cool). Because these pieces are made from real leaves, no two are alike! Lucky for us, Enchanted leaves is offering one Down and Out Chic reader a choice between two necklaces, one of them being a very special leaf piece.
These pieces are brand new and not even offered in the shop yet.
Silver Maple Leaf Necklace $25

OR...
Silver Scissors $20

How cute are those scissors???
So which will it be? The leaf necklace or the scissors? Good luck choosing.

How To Enter??? (3 entries, open to all readers)
1. Visit the shop and tell me what you like. (1 entry)
2. Are you a follower/member/reader of D&OC? Great! You get a second entry. Simply say, "I'm a reader." Make sure to leave a SEPARATE comment. (2nd entry)
3. Blog, Tweet or Facebook about this giveaway and let me know you did. (3rd entry).
Good luck! Winner will be picked next Tuesday night, 12/15/09.

    Wow - thanks for the link! I've just recently started following your blog and you provide some of the nicest, most interesting links.

    Enchanted Leaves' work is just beautiful. I am always on the hunt for unique accessories, so thank you for the link. I think my favs are the bumblebee necklace and the mushroom earrings. The Cottonwood necklace on a black ribbon will more than likely be a Christmas gift for a friend (and I may have to get one for myself).

    I feel terrible - I've realised the comment I've left is a bit misleading - I meant that I was being unoriginal by saying my favourite was one of your favourites, but I've realised that it might be interpreted that I've said that the jewellery is unoriginal. I just want to clear up that I do not think the jewellery is unoriginal - it is just me being unoriginal. Sorry if any offence has been taken.

    I've always adored Enchanted Leaves' work! My favorite item (not in shop yet) is the Silver Maple Leaf Necklace you mentioned in this post. Gorgeous, gorgeous necklace. But if I had to chose something that's only in the shop, the Secret Garden Real Leaf and Antique Key Necklace Silver/Copper is also stunning.

    Thank you for this great opportunity to win an Enchanted Leaves item!
