Shop news | New Fusion necklaces in store

Wednesday, January 11th, 2012

We’ve just added our newest design to the store – our Fusion necklaces! There are three styles: the assymetric fusion, the petite fusion and the long fusion.

They’re so-named because each necklace has two pieces of stainless steel: one with a brushed finish and one with a polished finish, that have been fused together. They’re modern and simple-looking, but can be quite symbolic of a union. Each necklace is personalized with a visual accent: either a Swarovski crystal in birthstone colors, or a faux-pearl. You can further personalize it with the engraving of initials, a date or a special word.

Want to stay updated of our new product designs and get a special promo code? You can join our e-mail newsletter, or go to our Facebook page.

Giveaway | September’s jewelry giveaway for an engraved torus necklace and August’s winner

Thursday, September 1st, 2011

For September, we’ll be giving away an engraved Torus necklace! The double-sided engraving option is something we’ve made available only recently. It’s a perfect way to personalize this simple modern necklace and truly make it yours. We’ve engraved them with family members’ names, words of inspiration and serenity or personal mantras.

To enter this month’s giveaway, comment on this blog post with:

1) Your name.
2) Which of our torus necklaces would you want? (That is, which accent).
3) What would you have engraved on it? (Please note that if you answer “I’m not sure yet”, or “I don’t know” your comment will not count).

Please, only one blog comment entry per person.
(We’ll be posting some mock-ups of some of the personalized necklaces on the Blend Creations Facebook page.)

We will draw randomly from all the blog comments received by Saturday October 1st at noon EDT, and announce a winner on Monday, October 3rd.  If a blog comment is drawn and doesn’t have all of the above answered, we will re-draw. Good luck!

Wrapping things up from our August giveaway for a #supernerdkeyring, we randomly drew a number between 1 and 110 (there were 54 blog comments and 56 tweets) and got number 48! Congratulations to Kerri who left us the 48th blog comment:

Sneak peek | Work in progress: Labyrinth pendant

Wednesday, June 15th, 2011

When we design new products, they always start with a sketch, then a production drawing and often a plastic prototype to get a good sense of what the piece will feel like physically.

We’re currently working on a Labyrinth pendant which would include a little maze marker that you can actually move. (Of course, the final product would be made of stainless steel and not plastic),

While the prototype isn’t nearly as robust as the final product would be, it’s already a lot of fun to play with!

 

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 :)
