This bi-annual giveaway marks three glorious years on this metalsmithing journey of mine. It's just a little way for me to say thank you to you, my friends, for your support and encouragement. The journey would be far less exciting without your hands and hearts gently pushing me along!
So, let's get to the good stuff, shall we!
:: { THE GOOD STUFF } ::
There will be three prizes up for grabs:
:: { PRIZE ONE - A gorgeous gemstone & sterling silver cocktail ring } ::
Choose your favourite from these beauties and I will make it into a size that it just perfect for you!
:: { PRIZE TWO - An initial necklace of your choice } ::
Perfect for everyday, wear it alone or layer it with your favourite necklaces. The initial is hand sawn by me and hangs from a delicate 1.5mm rollo chain. The typeface is the ever-gorgeous Minion Pro (which just so happens to be the same font used in my branding...heh!)
:: { How To Enter } ::
You can receive a maximum of four entries...one for completing each of the following:
:: {One Entry} - leave a comment below telling me which cocktail ring you would choose from the beauties pictured above (the names of the gemstones are listed there for your convenience!)
:: {One Entry} - share the link to this giveaway post on your Facebook page or via Twitter (and don't forgot to post a link below showing me where you have posted about it!)
:: {One Entry} - pin your favourite Belinda Saville adornment from my website (http://www.belindasaville.com/) or my Etsy shop (https://www.etsy.com/shop/BelindaSaville) to one of your Pinterest boards. It must be a new pin - old pins of my work don't count! Post a link to your pin below.
:: {One Entry} - tell me one thing that made you smile today :-)
Don't forget to include your email address so I can get in touch with you if you win!
I will be accepting entries until midnight AEST on Sunday 27 October 2013. The three winners (one for each prize) will be drawn and announced on Monday 28 October 2013. Yay!
Best of luck, my friends!

what made me smile today? well, the pretty old lady who runs the school in which i’m taking sewing classes is been arguing with me for the last 4 days about the kind of dress i should sew for myself (considering my pear-shaped body), and today she finally agreed that my first idea was probably the best solution…. but only after she made me think it through a thousand times and do about ten different paper patterns!=) actually it’s been a bit frustrating, but i took it with a big smile, at the end of the day you learn a lot from these situations, at least, how to be patient! :)

Hi Belinda!! Congratulations on three years of satisfaction and beauty!! :) Happy, happy, happy for this giveaway, let me cross my fingers!
1)Cocktail ring… duh… hard to choose! I would go for Larimar or Fire Opal :)
2) shared on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/giulia.maccagnini
3) pinned it on Pinterest: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/102668066478737833/
4) What made me smile today: this giveaway (thee-hee)… AND an e-mail telling me I’ve been invited to Luxemburg for a job interview next week. I’m very excited and curious, I’ve never been there before, and I’ve been looking for a job for 9 months now, so… this could be a good reason to keep smiling for a while :)
Did I mention that this giveaway made me happy?
Thanks, Belinda. Reading your posts always brings a smile to my face (and makes me drool over fantastic pieces of jewelry, lol). xxx

Thank you for running this amazing giveaway! I’ve got my fingers and toes crossed that I’m one of the lucky winners!
1. The rings are all gorgeous, but the Chalcedony ring really caught my eye – the colour is so subtle but elegant.

3. I’ve pinned the Tiny Blessing Rings from your esty store to my “Style” board (http://www.pinterest.com/pin/246290673345355969/)
4. What made me smile today? The kindness of strangers, unexpected packages and the first bite of my favourite flavour of gelato (pistachio) during a hot afternoon.

And finally, what has made me smile today?? My sister’s phone autocorrected mangoes to magpies. Would you like to buy a tray of magpies???

What a fantastic giveaway! I have to say, it’s difficult to pick which one of those rings I like best. Perhaps the larimar, it’s such a lovely and unusual stone.

Hi Belinda,
Thanks for offering another amazing giveaway. You are very generous!
My entries….
1. So hard to choose a favourite but I do love the black spinal and the chalcedony;
2. Have shared on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheWhimsicalBead
3. Have pinned on my Pinterest Board http://www.pinterest.com/pin/455637687271450467/
4. What made me smile today?? My niece and nephew! As you get older you forget that children see wonder in the world that we just don’t appreciate anymore – simple things like bubbles, puddles and worms in the garden are amazing to them. It makes me smile just watching them play!

It’s not easy to pick just one, they are all so lovely! But I do love pink amethyst, so I would pick that. I have pinned one of my other favourites on pinterest, and shared this page on facebook:

This is so exciting squeals with delight :)
I have to say that all the cocktail rings are stunning but the one that has taken my breath away is the sparkly Pink Amethyst- quite perfect really since Amethyst is my birthstone :)
I have shared on my facebook page too :)
The reason for my smile you ask?? Looking into my beautiful children’s eyes, they make even the most horrible day delightful. It doesn’t matter how horrible the day or week has been. Looking into my children’s eyes remind me how truly blessed I am, simply by having them there. Wouldn’t trade my life for anything :)
