Charm Party

I got home late last night to find a nice surprise: my prize from the Ultimate Blog Party.  I won a "Treasures Party Kit" from Amy Peters' Studio.  Amy makes lovely inspirational word jewelry like these great chunky chokers.

The Treasures Party kit provides all of the supplies--chains, shapes, and words--for 8 to 12 kids to make their own pewter charm necklaces, bracelets, and anklets.  It all comes packaged in a charming wood box with Amy's logo burned into the top.  The kit sells for $140, so I made out pretty well!

I don't want to open the package until we're ready to make the jewelry because I don't want to lose any of the little pieces, but this picture from Amy's website shows what comes in the kit.  I think it looks like a great party idea!  For other party ideas, check out this cool "comic" on Amy's website.

I know some young ladies who are just going to love the Treasures Party Kit!  I can't wait to get creative with them.  I'm already thinking about what my own necklace will look like.   I call the flower shape . . . !

Ultimate Blog Party 2010

5 Minutes for Mom is hosting its Ultimate Blog Party this week! They are giving away what looks to be a zillion prizes, so be sure to stop by and sign up!

For those of you visiting Inside the Yellow House, you've come at the right time.  Yellow House Knits is having its Semi-Annual Sale this week and next, so this is your opportunity to have a beautiful, handknit baby sweater--including the adorable pink flower sweater below--at a huge discount (all in-stock sweaters are 40% off).  There's also a special offer for bloggers (click here for details). 

The Party prizes are pretty fantastic.  I'm particularly interested in the following, but I would love to win any of the prizes (especially those my little niece would love and the gift cards) if these are taken: the Amazon gift cards from Escalate Network (US 73) and A Full Cup (US 74), the Vanilla Visa card from Shoot Me Now (US 104), the Target gift card from Peggy Gorman (USC 3), the Kay Jewelers gift card from An Unpink Life (USC 13), and the Apple Store gift card from Cmomgo (USC 17). 

Thanks for stopping by!
