BTW and A Giveaway or TWO!!!!!!

Well, Bead Table Wednesday is here again...and its about time I did another giveaway.  First of all, here is what is on my bead table...........
(left)This photo here is a close up of some idea's I have rolling around for Lorelei's C-Koop Enameled Shadowbox Challenge.  I think I love these little boxes.

These (below) are just some wings and such, and a bezel with a Lisa Peters Art Bead that needs to happen.  That wing focal on the bottom broke into all those pieces in the kiln.  I am still not sure why.   Maybe it wasn't fully dried.  Anyway- I was determined to save it....so I riveted it to a copper backing, and its now called, "Broken Dreams".
Ok- and now for the giveaway..................or TWO!

First I have this lovely pendant.  I made it for my sea glass and shell drilling demonstration last Saturday. 
It's a sterling silver bail and swirl, with genuine aquamarine and pink seaglass dangling from it, all adorning a large mother of pearl donut. Its bold and perfect for summer.  It will fit on most chains, it comes with an 18" silver plated snake chain.

The second giveaway is for you jewelry designers. 

This one is for two pieces of genuine sea glass, top drilled, two shells top drilled and one bronze ammonite charm, also top drilled, from my Artisan Accents store.

To enter, leave a comment, and I will pick two winner randomly next wednesday, August 3rd.  You get additional entries for facebooking or blogging or both, but PLEASE leave an additional comment for each way you shared.  Also- make sure I have a way to get ahold of you.  If you do not have a blog or your email linked to your blog, please leave your email in the comment.  If you win, and I cannot get ahold of you, a new winner will be picked.

So good luck, and thanks for checking out my bead table this wednesday!

    I love these. I especially like working with sea glass and shells. I often add them to my Glass Kreationz. But it would be great to use them for jewelry, too. And I like your ideas you have for the little box so far. Would love to win.

    I like what you did to save the wing focal, it looks like it was meant to be that way!

    These are so pretty. Thanks for the chance. I wish I could have been at your drilling demo--I'm making my first attempt at drilling some shells this weekend and have a feeling I will end up with lots of bits and pieces. ~Eileen

    I agree, that I love what you've done with the broken piece. Since I'm just getting started, I'm sure I'll have a few of those too. ;)

    My kiln & supplies arrived today so I can't wait to dive in.

    And thanks again for all your very helpful info on drilling sea glass!

    It's neat when you can salvage an item and give it a new use. It turned out greeat. It's also nice that you have two giveaways. I am drawn to the sea glass but both are wonderful.

    Thanks for a great giveaway.
    I love how you remade the broken focal with wings.
    I like it better that way and I like the new name.
    Serendipity!

    I hate working during the week I miss all the fun of BTW. Anyway, I am so glad you posted a giveaway list because I would never have seen your giveaway!
    I hope to win the beads because I love sea glass and live near the Hudson River not the ocean.
    I am in love with your handmade charms!!!

    I am a fan of your things and I love what you did with the broken wings - how clever -lemonade from lemons as they say! I wish I could have been at your drilling class - I would love to learn how.
