giveaway: silver hammered earrings

update: congrats to the winner, Heather!!

It's been a rainy monsoon weekend here in Nashvegas (I've loved every minute of it, but please be praying for others with flooding and house damage). I'm so excited to bring you this new giveaway from my friend Destiny, whose love for all things mason & ball inspired my new blog design. Destiny & her husband Avery live out in Eugene, OR, but David and I are petitioning for them to come back down south...

Destiny is giving away these hammered silver circle earrings to one Wild & Precious reader.

entry 5: tweet or facebook this giveaway
{please leave a separate comment for each entry. giveaway closes Sunday 5/9}

meet the designer:

Q: What inspires your creations?
A: What ends up happening is I just make jewelry that I would like to own. Sometime it's a hit & sometimes it's not, so I am always testing something new on myself...it sounds like I am my own inspiration, but that is cheesy... it's true through.

Q: What do you love most about creating jewelry?
A: There are several things - 1. I love creating jewelry because it's my passion and then also it's my job. I feel very blessed that it is working out for me, I mean -- i'm not a millionaire, but I am doing fine. 2. It is so much fun to start out with just a piece of metal and then have it turn into jewlry. It's gratifying.

Q: If you could be on ay tv show, what would it be?
A: I have watched "Survivor" since season 1, episode 1, & I think I have missed maybe a total of 5 episodes...so with that being said I would have to say "The Amazing Race"...just kidding, Iwould love to be on "Survivor". My hesitations are my fear of being the 1st person voted out and I also don't do well without food.

Love & miss you Destiny. Thanks for the great giveaway!
p.s. if any of y'all are in the northwest, check out these fun stores selling destiny's designs.
