Giveaway, Day 24: MerCurios. CLOSED.

Sorry this is up so late, but I spent Christmas Eve with my family. This is another fun treat from a dear friend of mine, Mary-Jo. She owns MerCurios, which is my go-to for amazing crystal pieces. She creates a plethora of beautiful items, which is why she is giving away a $40 gift certificate to the MerCurios Etsy shop, so you can pick your favorite item!


I own two custom rings that Mary-Jo + I collaborated on awhile back + I absolutely love them. I was eyeing some of the pieces tonight + I think I need to add a new piece to my collection - perhaps something that glows.

Enter via the Rafflecopter below - if you've missed a few giveaways, scroll through the blog, because many are still open. Good luck! :)

Free Marc Jacobs? I'll Take It!

A few months ago, I had signed up with Oasap's blogger-friendly Fashion Hunter Program. They hooked me up with a free credit, which sat there for three months. Finally, I decided to put it to good use. I didn't want to spend any money out of pocket, so I had to find something that fit within the price range of the credit I had been given. Since there is no tax, plus free shipping, I got more bang for my buck. I decided to get something simple, to store my jewelry. I chose a Marc By Marc Jacobs makeup bag. Its a really cute print, featuring Miss Marc.


I separated my accessories into smaller bags: rings, bracelets, charms, chains, earrings, necklaces, etc. Instead of spending time untangling necklaces or looking everywhere for a missing earring, this makes it a lot easier.


 I love how nearly all of jewelry is handmade, and has been handcrafted by many ladies I am lucky to call my friends. Its so nice wearing something that has meaning to it, and is made just for me!


 I know a lot of people use jewelry trees, cork boards, or jewelry boxes to store their wares, but I feel this far more practical for me. How do you store your accessories?
