There were two hilarious yet mildly off-color captions that may or may not have made me momentarily incontinent. Y'all know Mr. Smartypants never chooses those, but I love them!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is the. last. group of jewelry pictures for months. I won't be able to make any starting soon because of the move (No news yet. You'll be the first to know. Promise) and the baby.

I am still taking orders for the photo necklaces and bracelets. I'll take orders through the end of this week. That way I can be sure to have it delivered to you for Mother's Day and before I have the baby.

If you want one for Mother's Day, email me and we'll design it and then simply tell your better half where to buy! ;) Yes, he needs your help.

I made some beautiful new pieces that I would love to share with you-

Do you recognize her? She's a bloggy rawk stah.

Fussy Has a Jewelry Winner!

Megan_necklace_on_green_3

Thank you all so much for joining in for the surprise give away. I loved hearing about everyone's favorites. Not only did I learn about tons of new things to do/try/buy/eat, but I learn more and more about you with every comment.

To be both arbitrary and fair, I had my kids choose. I said, "Pick a number between 0 and 7." Then I asked my 6 year old to pick a number between 0 and 9.

The boys oh-so scientifically chose 53. I counted the comments 6 times, so not to miscount. It would be just like me to miscount.

The winner is Michelle of MichelleSmiles.com. Congrats. Just send an email with your address and a picture you would like me to work my magic on!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you did not win this time do not fret! I give away photo jewelry once or twice a month.

One more surprise, I am giving away another photo necklace and a stunning ruby crystal and silver choker & earring set. These are part of Shannon's Bloggy Giveaways.

Here is a peek of the set I am giving away. Go on now, go enter here!

And yes, Friends of Fussy, I know I'm gonna have some 'splainin to do when Mr. Smartypants realizes I'm giving more bling away! :)

Love you, you, you, you, and of course YOU,

Fussy

Fussy's Surprise Jewelry Giveaway!

I have asked so much of you, my Friends of Fussy. You have voted, added, named children after me and tattooed my cartoon face on your left buttock. The Friends of Fussy are the best ever!

I love to make jewelry. Unfortunately I am the world's worst business woman. My habit of selling it at cost and/or giving it away has halted the whole entrepreneur gig, much to Mr. Smartypants' dismay. I finally realized that when I think of jewelry as a 'job' it just wasn't as much fun. I love to give, to see eyes light up and celebrate friendship. That is where my joy comes from when I design each piece.

So celebrate this most wonderful week with me and join in the new giveaway! You don't need to do anything at all to win. Simply enter by joining in and leaving a note in the comments.

I love to hear from you all every single day. Today let's make the comments about something you love: a favorite quote, motto, book, song, new food, shade of lipstick, movie, CD. You decide what your entry will be! I'm sure everyone will have fun, and pick up some favorites.

The wonderful winner will receive a piece from my custom photo jewelry collection.

This is the Megan necklace. I will turn your favorite photo into a wonderful little work of art!

The winner will be announced on Monday. In the meantime, I am excited to see everyone's favorites.

Love, Fussy

Fussy's Back with Jewelry Winners!

Whoo-Hoo, I'm home. I missed you!

We made it back from the family reunion with all four of the boys. We offered a certain boy, who shall remain nameless, to many of the relatives, but sadly, we had no takers.

Hopefully, I'll post some pictures over the weekend of our adventures.

What? You need at least one funny story? OK, here goes...

Hub's parents rented a convertible.  I asked why they hadn't put the top down. They explained that they had luggage in the backseat and didn't want it to fly out while driving! Now can y'all imagine driving down the highway, a convertible passes you in the left lane, and you see an oversized (50lb) suitcase magically lift up and fly out of the backseat and scatter orthopedic shoes, polyester blazers, and sun visors all over the road? Gave me a chuckle.

Anyhoo, I have winnahs!

The lovely Tina (In the mind of a thirtysomething mom)  wins a Custom Photo Necklace. Thanks to everyone who entered and indulged my delusions of grandeur. We won't know who made the Bloggie finals until next week.

Don't worry if you didn't win, Friends of Fussy, I give away a special piece every month! I'll have a new Photo Necklace contest up at the first of February.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The winner of the most disturbing animal photo caption contest is the wonderful Angella (Dutchblitz.net). She racked up 28.9% of the votes!

Angella gets some supa-fine earrings made with love by yours truly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm working on a cute post with a great idea for organizing your earrings for tomorrow. While I do that, could you please give me your opinion about all my photo caption contests? Should we keep em, change em or dump em? It's up to YOU! ;)

If you are a feedreader, please click over to the site to vote.

Did I mention how much I missed you? I missed you all terribly and I'm so happy to be back. Big ol' smoochy kisses to ya! ~MWAH~

Love, Fussy
