One for you, One for me GIVEAWAY CLOSED


To be honest, jewelry normally isn't my thing. I've never been one to pull off those long, dangly earrings or  big, chunky bangles. And I'm awful at picking it out to match an outfit.  I tend to keep it pretty minimal with some pearl earrings, maybe a ring, or a simple necklace. 

Which is why I love the simple jewelry at Apple Blossom Shoppe. When Julie contacted me and asked me to pick out a necklace, I was giddy. 

I swooned over the fiji aquamarine pendant.


but fell in love with the tangerine dream pendant.




 Julie was sweet enough to send me not one, but two of her pretty necklaces. 




So today we're giving away the peach drop necklace to one lucky reader.
