giveaway: Botanical Bird

*this GIVEAWAY has ended...

i am SUPER excited about this GIVEAWAY! - i first met Cyd on etsy a couple years back & was instantly in LOVE with her jewelry. then my LOVE grew even bigger when i won her Blue Rose Locket Necklace through a blog giveaway! & let me tell you...i get MORE comments on that locket than any other piece of jewelry i wear. i LOVE telling people where i got it & spreading the ETSY-LOVE! - below are a few FUN facts about Cyd and her AWESOME shop...


tell us a bit about yourself...what do you want us to know about YOU?
I am a huge animal and nature lover. My favorite place on the planet is lake Quinalt, located in the rain forest in Washington state. I've spent several summers working on a fishing boat in Alaska, where I also lived for 6 years. I have also lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where I spent much of my time painting with watercolors. I adore estate sales, and hunting for unique vintage and antique items. I play guitar, though I fantasize about playing the violin, maybe someday.

what is your most treasured vintage belonging & why?
A sweet little music box, that plays "Raindrops keep falling on my head", my Grandmother gave it to me when I was a small child, so it's very dear to me.

what is the one item in your wardrobe that you find yourself reaching for most & that you couldn't live without?
This one is kind of funny, living in Portland, OR, I would have to say my rain parka, at least for much of the year.

what is your idea of a 'perfect day'?
Being able to spend time outdoors, taking a day trip to the Oregon coast, walking the beach and stopping to have some fresh seafood.

what is your favorite item in your shop & why?
I don't know that I have a favorite, but I'm fond of the Sky Blue Flower Necklace, because it looks great on!
