Giveaway!!! Earrings from the Nest!

Today's giveaway is an extra special giveaway sponsored by The Nest an Etsy store that supports The Sparrow Fund, which helps to support adoptive families with the high cost of adoption.

 
The Sparrow Fund is a nonprofit organization that started in the spring of 2011 by Kelly. The Sparrow Fund is committed to supporting adoptive families by providing grants to pay for preadoption counseling and support, medical reviews of the child who may become their own, in-country support while they travel around the world to bring their child home, and postadoption counsel as their family goes through transition.

 
The Sparrow Fund has partnered with a group of women in Nairobi, Kenya, women broken from war and HIV, caring for orphans in their community, but made whole together. We are supporting them through selling their handiwork so that they can support their families. And, they have embraced what we are doing to serve adoptive families and allow us to use some of the profit to help fund the grants through The Sparrow Fund.

 
The Nest has provided me with a pair of earrings to giveaway! The earrings are hand-rolled paper beads made from recycled magazine and calendar pages take approximately 15 minutes each to roll and varnish to make a unique bead that no one believes started as paper. I'm giving away one pair but you can choose either the red or blue.

 
There are 3 ways to enter...only 1 winner!
  1. Leave a comment below and tell me if you'd like the red or blue earrings.
  2. Tell your friends and leave an additional comment letting me know that you told your friends.
  3. Go to The Nest HERE and tell me what piece is your favorite!
This giveaway is open to anyone from the United States who is 18 years or older and will be selected at random on November 18th at 9 am. The winner will have 48 hours to reply to our email confirming their prize. If the prize is not claimed by return email within 48 hours, a new winner will be chosen. Please, please, please make sure you leave your name on the comment so I can find the winner easily!!!Good luck!!!
