MyMomShops Giveaway: Brag About It


One of my best friends just celebrated her 40th birthday and I wanted to send her something special but within my budget. It also needed to ship to Canada, so I used the "shop local" feature on Etsy to find a shop in the Toronto area. I stumbled onto Brag About It, a storefront featuring sweet hand-stamped jewelry, and chose this 2-Disc Hand-Stamped and Bubbled-Up Sterling Silver Custom Name Necklace ($30). My friend has 2 beautiful boys and though the necklace arrived a tad late for her own birthday (mea culpa) it happened to be delivered on her younger son's 1st birthday. She said she's getting many compliments, and that it arrived beautifully wrapped, too. The necklace can be made wtih a 16" or 18" chain and each 5/8" disc is personalized with funky lower-case typewriter font. You can also choose Swarovski crystals or pearls for added bling. At $30, it's a very affordable piece of jewelry to buy a friend (or yourself). Visit Brag About It.

Win it! After I placed my order at Brag About It, the shop generously offered to give one of my readers the same necklace ($30 value) with 2 personalized discs and Swarovski crystals or pearls. This contest is open to BOTH U.S. and Canadian readers. Here are the contest rules:

1) Visit Brag About It and tell us what your favorite item is (it does not have to be the giveaway item). Leave your comment on THIS post (click on "comments" below).

3) You may leave up to 3 separate entries- 1 entry with a comment as described in #1, 1 entry with a link to where you have blogged about this giveaway, 1 entry with your Twitter name if you have tweeted about this giveaway.

5) NOTE: If you wish to be contacted by e-mail if you win, please include your e-mail address in your comment. Otherwise you must check back on Monday morning, October 4th. If the prize is NOT claimed within 48 hours, the next random winner (using Random.org) will be contacted.
