Phew! It's Friday! This week felt extra long to me. Maybe it's from the lack of sleep/rest since Bug doesn't believe in sleeping anymore. All these late nights of struggling are getting to me now. I feel like I'm becoming stupider each day I don't sleep. I thought complete exhaustion was over after she first slept through the night as a baby. Nope!
Here's something to brighten the day, a great giveaway from Adriana's Accessories! Enter using the Rafflecopter form below but first lets learn more about Adriana and her shop:

How did you get started in your craft and selling on Etsy?
One day back in 2003 my friend bought this Swarovski crystal name bracelet at a local hair salon that this woman was making and selling for almost $200 . I looked at it and told her she was crazy and I thought to myself why do people have to get ripped off for quality work and started making my own jewelry but not really selling it . Then people took notice. My mother would wear a piece to her school where she worked, I would wear my pieces to parties etc and everyone would ask me where I got it so I figured lets give it a shot. I rented a spot in a hair salon near home and boom it took off. I was selling like crazy and having home parties, craft fairs you name it I sold there lol !! Then I got engaged to the man of my dreams and was planning a wedding and buying a home so the jewelry line was not #1 any more after that. We planned to have a baby right away and the jewelry stuff was packed in the attack and I had no time what so ever to do it. Recently I went to a Medium party where this woman did readings etc. I was skeptical but what the hey, it was all in good fun right ! Well she was GREAT !!! Spot on she looked at me and told me what I do for a living is fine but its not my passion its not what I love to do !! And by the time I am 30 I will figure out and work on my passion and make it a part of my life .. LIGHT BULB! What do I miss doing the most in my life and would spend hours upon hours creating and researching and talking about?!! My jewelry, my passion !! Now I am back into gear with it and hoping for it to take off again the way it was when I started and then some .
What is your favorite item in your shop & why?
My favorite item in my shop right now is Antique Squares bracelet . It is such a stunning piece its big and chunky yet simple and elegant.I love the "old" looking components with the Crystal Clear square beads it goes with everything !
