Peacock Blue Brass Giveaway

Do you love our new Peacock Blue Brass finish?  We do and it's selling great so we're pretty sure we picked a winner of a new finish!   The Peacock Blue Brass is a gorgeous line of solid brass charms, pendants and findings with a black undercoloring and a permanent peacock blue finish on top.  This color goes with anything so mix it with silver, gold, copper or vintage brass.

Our winner was Nancy Hendershot from Florida.  Congratulations Nancy!

Win a Swarovski Sample Box

Our winner is Christine Kelley from Marlborough, Massachusetts.   Congratulations Christine! 

When Swarovski launches new colors and products, I get this wonderful box with 9 sections filled with all the new goodies and colors.  It's eye candy at it's finest!  I put up the two new Swarovski colors Crystal Rose Gold and Light Silk this week so I thought I'd give away the sample box to one of my readers.

To enter to win, send an email to me at blog@eebeads.com.  The subject line should say "Swarovski Contest" and include your full name and address in the body of the email...that's all you have to do!  I'll pick one random winner on Monday, April 29th, 2013 at noon Eastern time and post the winner here.  Good luck and thank you (as always) for stopping by!

The correct answer was:
A:  Swarovski Crystal
B:  Chinese Crystal
C:  Preciosa Crystal

Guess How Many Kilos We Received

It's time for another contest! A couple weeks ago we received our yearly shipment of Inexpensive Indian Glass Beads. The beads come in small white, one kilo size boxes (I'm holding one). The larger cartons are cardboard and then wrapped and stitched up in burlap filled with these smaller white boxes. We received 10 of the larger boxes.

The contest is to guess how many of the small, white, 1 kilo boxes are in our shipment. You can see the entire shipment in the photo.

The winner is:
I had actually 4 people who didn't go over and guessed 240 which were the closest guesses.  The actual number of kilos in our shipment was 242.  The guessers were Judy, Timea, Patti and Karen.  Using a random number generator, Patti Welsh of Grand Rapids, Ohio is the winner!  There were 242 kilos in our shipment.  Thank you to everyone for playing!
