Giveaway: $50 gift cert to Earrings Nation- CLOSED





















We're starting out the week with a very sweet giveaway because I think Monday's deserve all the help they can get.  Earrings Nation is a independent jewelry shop with a large selection of pretty feminine baubles.  Earrings Nation is offering one D&OC reader a $50 gift certificate for anything in the shop!  This means you can get a few items of your choice including my favorite piece + hairpins or earrings or maybe a ring?
Entering is easy and it's open to all readers.  Winner will be randomly chosen next Monday Nov. 1st.
Up to 3 entries:
1.  Visit Earrings Nation and leave a comment telling me what you like.  This one's mandatory!
2.  If you're a reader of D&OC, you get a second entry for being fantastic.  Just tell me how you subscribe (i.e. the feed, Google Friend Connect, etc).  Make sure to leave a separate comment.
3.  Share this giveaway via your own blog, Facebook, or Twitter and leave a separate comment letting me know.

Thanks so much for you participation and good luck!
update- the winner is #18, Lauren!

  10. I keep D&OC on my igoogle home page and check in every day to get my fix.

    The "earring nation" question: Every piece appeals to different parts of me from different lives I've led. Or maybe they're all equally awesome! Either way, I'll have a hard time choosing but feel up to the challenge.

  105. My favorites would be the "Three little owls in a tree" because it reminds me of my two little daughters and myself and how we are always together, and the "Orchid trio dangle earrings" because it reminds me of home, where orchids grow wild. I grew up in Malaysia, a neighbor of Singapore, where this wonderful jewelry designer/maker resides.
