Birthday Giveaway

Well, it is that time of year again, our birthdays.  Today is my birthday, and I turned a young 38 and tomorrow is mom's birthday, and she is turning 60.  Though she sure doesn't look like she is 60!!!!!  Mom says the only time she really feels her age is when someone mentions how old I am, and then it hits her.


In celebration of our birthdays, mom and I thought we would have a giveaway.  This time we plan on giving away an enameled copper heart bowl, an enameled copper eagle pendant, and some of our lampwork "Spring" beads.

Here are individual shots of the giveaway pieces:



Ok, the rules for our little birthday giveaway.  All you have to do is leave a comment on this blog post.  Mom and I will randomly select from the comment section of this blog post on Sunday, 20 March.  Make sure you leave a way to contact you if doesn't appear next to your comment.  Anonymous comments will not qualify to win our birthday giveaway.

Bonus points:  You can earn extra chances to win by posting on Facebook or blogging about our giveaway.  Make sure you add a separate comment for your additional entry to win.

One last view of our giveaway.

I had a wonderful birthday with mom and working in the studio.  Tomorrow I hope mom has a great birthday too.

Postscript - March 14th Mom's Birthday.  Today I decorated mom's office.  It was a circus trying t get into her office because mom now works across campus and trying to find someone who could let me in was fun.  I didn't want her boss to come in early, so one of her custodial staff helped me out this morning.  This is what I did to mom's office, and no, I wasn't too mean to mom :)
See...I wasn't too mean.

    Happy Birthday to you both! I know how your Mom feels - my daughter turns 43 this April - yikes!!! It only seems like a few years ago that I was 25.
    Your giveaway is wonderful - I especially love the eagle - he/she is gorgeous!

    Aw! How awesome are YOU! Love the decorated office and I bet your mom did too. 60 is a milestone, so give her a big hug from someone hitting the 40 mark next month and tell her I said Pssssh. Age is just a numba, dahlink!
    (plus she doesn't look 60...no way no how)

    Happy Birthday to you both! love y'all!

    @Sadi - mom loved the office. She said she was taking photographs and sending images to her boss who was at an appointment. Everyone loved her decorated office and mom said it made her morning - It pumped her up to face the day.

    @Everyone else - Thank you for the wonderful birthday wishes. Mom and I are having a wonderful day!

    Thanks so much!!!!
