AroundBeads giveaway

What can be a universal gift for people who love to create and who love to learn something new? Of course this is a book! Our next giveaway is hosted by Albina (AroundBeads), co-author of this book.

Written for jewelry makers of all media and skill levels, this book encourages the mixing of techniques with the skills of others to create unique designs. Each project brings together two or three jewelry making techniques, each of which could also be used for independent projects.


To win this book:

1. Visit AroundBeads, browse around, and leave a comment here telling what your favorite item is! Make sure to include your email address or a way to contact you if you win! (1 entry)

2. Heart AroundBeads Etsy shop and leave a comment here with your Etsy username (1 entry).

3. Follow/subscribe Albina’s twitter / facebook / blog / flickr (1 entry each).

4. Grab Etsy Russian Team’s button and place it on your blog (1 entry).

5. Share about this giveaway on your blog/facebook/twitter (1 entry).



If you would like to see (and even buy) more Albina’s works, please visit her Etsy shop


This giveaway will run from February 19th through the 28th, and the lucky winner will be announced on March 1st, 2011.

Good luck everyone!
