Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

We’re featuring 12 days of giving! Each day we’ll be featuring one of our most popular jewelry items, each at a special price for 24 hours only!

Today’s deal:
Get $10 off our Worldly Disc Bottle Opener pendant (regular price is $64, today until midnight EST it’s on sale for $54).

Worldly disc bottle opener pendant

To most people, this stainless steel disc will simply be an abstract-patterned pendant, but the opening of the disc is actually a functioning bottle-opener, and the pattern is actually a map in homage to the birthplace of one of fifteen well-loved brews. You can open your beer, and look good doing it!

A great gift for beer snobs ;)

We’re half-way through the month of March and have already given away two of the four Twitter necklaces in this month’s giveaway.

In the first week’s draw, we had 436 tweets, and of these we drew number 11which corresponded to @Sobbee’s tweet — she’s already sporting her new @ necklace.

Yesterday, we drew the second winner out of the 457 tweeted entries. We drew number 437 which corresponded to @suzieswapper’s tweet.

Congratulations ladies!

There are still two more necklaces to give away this month. Please note that because we don’t want people entering this giveaway to spam on Twitter, we’ve had to limit the number of tweets for entering this giveaway to one per hour.

Giveaway | March giveaway: Twitter necklaces

Tuesday, March 1st, 2011

Update: Please see below for new restrictions to entering this giveaway.
Update 3/28: This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for all your entries!

Congrats to our February giveaway winner, Aimee M. who has won a threesie Daisy Chain necklace! (We randomly drew from all the blog comments from our February giveaway blog post and came up with the number 12 which corresponded to Aimee’s comment).

As Aimee says:

Love the daisy chain! I think I’d have to keep it for myself. I’d love a necklace representing my little family – September, April, and May.

For our March giveaway, we’re mixing things up a little bit. We’re doing our first ever, Twitter giveaway!

Appropriately enough, we’ll be giving away our personalized Twitter handle necklaces — the winner will choose either the @ necklace or the birdie necklace. And there will be a winner every Monday in the month of March!

Here’s how to enter:

1) Follow: @blendcreations on Twitter.

2) Tweet the following in its entirety:

I’d like to win a @blendcreations #twitternecklace http://bit.ly/hGzgGA. Tweet for your chance to win. Details: http://bit.ly/f6lUls

UPDATE: New limitation to the giveaway, effective Sunday, Marcy 13 9:50 EDT — You cannot tweet more than ONCE PER HOUR, otherwise you will be disqualified from this giveaway.


The fine print:

The giveaway is open to all residents of Canada and the US. You can tweet as often as you’d like — so long as it is no more than once per hour. We will be drawing one winner every Monday at noon Eastern Time in March from all the tweets received from the previous week.

Winners will be contacted by direct message (DM) through Twitter, so you must follow @blendcreations for us to be able to contact you. We’ll announce the name of the winner each week by Tuesday after he/she has confirmed.

Good luck!

(P.S. If you can’t wait to see if you’re a winner, you can use the promo code “TweetTweet” until 3/31 to get 15% off your order! Or if you’ve won after you’ve already purchased a Twitter handle necklace, we’ll refund your purchase :)
