2008 Bloggy Giveaway
October 27, 2008 by Katelyn Thomas
Filed under Contests and Giveaways
Can you believe that this year’s Bloggy Giveaways are here again already? If you’ve participated last year, you probably remember that they run for one week, which means you can enter through October 31st.
This year’s prizes were donated by Beth from Diffraction. Her lovely pieces are created using photos she takes and then turns into jewelry. They are quite nice and I’m rather jealous of the winners! (I’d like to let you choose your prize, but since you both might like the same one, I’m going to just randomly pick the peacock earrings winner first and then the ivy earrings winner.)
If you fall in love with a piece and you aren’t one of the lucky winners, you’ll be happy to know that this is one jeweler who has a thrifty heart. Almost all the pieces I saw in the Etsy shop were under $25. It helps that Diffraction is currently offering free shipping, too.
To enter, as always, just leave a comment. It would be great if the comment was related to your thrifty accessorizing tips, but you can just say, “I want to enter!” too.
Fine Print: Void where prohibited by law. Value of the prize is $25 or less. Winners will be drawn using Random.org on November 1st and the prizes will be mailed at my expense to the winners.
By the way, don’t forget the other contests going on at Simply Thrifty right now. Jennifer has an awesome Little Monsters costume contest going on and I’ve got free frozen meal coupons from Kahiki to give to ten lucky readers!


















I don’t spend a lot on accessories, but I would love to enter this contest.

I shopat non-vintage thrift shops, where there’s alaways a lot of unloved retro jewlery, just waiting to make a comeback.
Mostly my thrifty accesorizing tips are wearing the same necklace and bracelet EVERY DAY. . . LOL!

I actually would love the ivy earrings because I spent hours today on my “week-end” pulling it up so kids could safely get up my steps on Halloween, as well as trying to figure out ways to make some money from my abundance of black bamboo.
Fantastic giveaway! Please sign me up for your contest.
