I have also linked to this give away from my right margin in my blog. http://hello-mypretty.blogspot.com/
WOW! You've got a lot of comments so far! That's amazing. You have really charming work (pun intended) and it's completely understandable. Personally I like the little evil eye bird and the owl pendant. I'm pretty much a sucker for all things birds, except for pigeons.
I followed a link from Lorelei's blog and I'm so happy that I did. This necklace is just gorgeous. Can't believe you're giving it away!!! I love it.
My favorite in your shop is the "You are my sunshine" necklace. I sing that song to my kids all the time. ♥♥♥
I'm following your blog now. Wish I would have come across it sooner. :) I just tweeted about the giveaway too. Gotta love Twitter!
Have a great day!

Christine, my favorite is The Optimistic Fern! Simply beautiful, and the plus is it's optimistic!
Thanks for the giveaway chance.
the ring -- on the rocks. The dandelion birthstone necklace. The as I grow necklace.
I did post your giveaway at my blog. I particularly liked that ring, I gotta tell you.
Hi! I came over from Lorelei's blog. I like the Uprising ring, and the Sugar Cubed ring. I also thought the My Favorite Year was clever. And Eclipse of the Sun. You do really lovely designs. I am having my own little giveaway this week as well on my blog for a W.O.W. pendant. I didn't realize this was the week of the giveaway!
Enjoy the day!
Erin
It's gotta be the petals and dew ring. How lovely.
Hihi and hihi! Ok I love "live outside that cage"!
Its different and laid back.
This is a great giveaway thank you for letting
us all have a chance.

I think this necklace that you're featuring "My Heart Belongs to..." is probably my favorite piece right now. I also really like "Free".
My favorite is the "You are my sunshine" necklace. I would want it without my birthstone though.
I have three favorites: the sugar cube ring, You are my sunshine necklace, and Wilford the bird. would blog about this tomorrow, got to run... thanks=)
I LOVE the "Papavers". It is my favorite!
hiya,
here's the post: http://theshopbug.blogspot.com/2009/04/giveaway-from-chocolate-and-steel.html
have a great day!
Blogged about your giveaway, thanks Christine!
It was a close call between the Obama Charms....but "Fired Up" is my favorite piece. I can't explain why. I don't like hearts and I almost never wear any...but I just adore this piece. Its as if it says to me "hey, mushy gushy hearts aren't so bad. You want me don't you."
So yea I know I sound crazy... but there you have it! My favorite :)
Blogged about your giveaway Christine! So hard to pick that favorite piece ;)
You are my sunshine makes me thinks about my three sons...it brings a smile to my face

love the look of "Love is a funny thing"!! very nice!!
i twittered here:http://twitter.com/thegiveawaydiva
What a great idea! I love the Fresh Blooms necklace and the way you pictured your inspirational vintage card deck from the 60's for the poppy design. You are so talented! I don't have a blog yet, nor have I figured out how to twitter--but hope to learn soon. Thanks for the cool giveaway!
I like "my favorite year", yeah, that has to be the best. Great idea for a giveaway; I posted about it to my blog.
I was won over by THE UPRISING. At first glance, I thought it was a bracelet, which would be gorgeous, but I love it as a ring too.
Your pieces are all one of a kind. My favorite is "Live outside the cage"...now I've never seen anything like it and love it!
Room for one more?
Stuff I love in your shop? hmm... that's a tough one to narrow down. But my absolute faves are the pendants with the great quotes on them, particular all time fave is the 'She's Crafty' one.
Second fave is the Typewriter letters.
Third fave is the Cherry Blossom pendant.
I could go on... and on...!!!
I will post about this giveaway in the next couple of days for a bonus entry and just because your work is ace!
My favorite is still the rings that look like little trees so I'm going with "Hansel and Gretal"
I really like the circle dot necklace. I just can't decide if I'd want my birthstone or my son's!
Oooh it's so difficult to choose a favourite - ok I will go with the Hummingbird :-)
I also really like The Uprising, and Petals and Dew...
the bird in the nest piece. all your pieces are beautiful, tho.
i posted on my blog about your gorgeous jewelry. blog link is jayneluvsmickey.blogspot.com
ONE of my favorite items is your Fleur de Matin necklace. So pretty! I'm happy to have stumbled across your blog!

The most beautiful thing in your shop is necklace Madame and Monsieur, it will be perfect for my dad and mums weding aniversary.And this necklace will belong to me because Im still looking for some boy.
I am new to your blog, and blogging in the blogasphere. I really like your building your nest pendant necklace. I like the name, because it reminds me of spring time, and renewal, and discovery. I love the organic shape of the pendant with the stones nestled in the nest at the bottom. I would choose the aquamarine as the stone.
I have placed you on my brand new blog. Unfortunately, I have no followers as of yet, but hopefully I will soon.
