Name Bracelet Giveaway for May/June

Beaded name bracelets

Contest time! Wouldn’t you like to win your very own name bracelet from my personalized jewelry store, Alphabitsy? Of course you would. All you have to do is answer this month’s question in the comments. Make sure that the address you leave in the “E-mail address” box is one where I can contact you.

The contest is open to all readers worldwide, ages 13 and up. Value of prize: $3.49 – $5.99 depending on bracelet style chosen and winner’s location.

The winner will be randomly chosen from comments here and blog post entries on June 15, 2012 at 11:59 PM Eastern time.

Today, both of my shops are taking part in the Protesty.com protest. I’m going to leave them shut down at least through the weekend, but I feel honored to take part in this largely impotent gesture of seller outrage toward the reseller situation at Etsy.

If you have a burning desire to buy from me, my WePay store and Alphabitsy.com remain open.

Not by me. Still totally amazing.

Check out this gorgeous Pac-Man hat on Etsy. No, I didn’t make it, but it’s so cool that I wish I had.

At the Auctions

I’ve been playing around with TopHatter, and have scheduled my first auction! It’s for letter beads. I’ll be selling handknit stuff as well, and will post updates here with those listings. Here’s my first auction. You can also check out my profile to see my future auctions.

Tophatter is sort of a deranged mix of eBay, Etsy, and Heartsy, and looks super, super fun.
