Flowerleaf GIVEAWAY!

* THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED. THANKS TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED:)*
YAAAY! i am back from tour & getting back into the swing of GIVEAWAY's:)
this week i am happy to have the WONDERFUL Jocelyn of
www.Flowerleaf.etsy.com
who is giving away not 1, BUT 2 items!
SO super giving of you Ace (that's my nickname for her, gilmore girls reference)
i have watched Jocelyn's shop grow over the past few months and have fallen in love with her items and her product shots. there's a bunch of mystery in her goodies. i'm a huge fan of mysterious trinketry:)
let's get to know a little bit more about Jocelyn....
1. tell us about your shop. when did you first open your shop & what made you choose to sell on etsy?

I first opened my shop in May of 2009 and I had actually heard about Etsy from a mutual friend of this here Rachel lady (Jamie Maldonado - see his awesome photography blog in the button in the left column <--). He told me there was this cool site where I could sell my art. I didn't feel I was ready to start selling my drawings and paintings online yet, but I was making these rings at the time and figured I might be able to sell those. I was making the wire wrap rings and just starting to venture out into what I am selling now. The rings I made were just not good - I just don't have the talent of wire wrapping, or it might be that I haven't developed patience for it. So I started selling my jewelry on Etsy, knowing full well that the competition is pretty fierce when it comes to selling jewelry. It makes life that much more exciting, right? 2. do you sell on etsy full or part time?

I am not currently working right now and not really making a living off of what I sell on Etsy, so I will say that I am full time when it comes to hours and part time when it comes to pay. I am definitely hoping for full time some day.

3. who are your top 5 favorite musicians/bands/songwriters etc.? (i realize this is almost a mean question because how can one choose but i love music & i need to know what kind you love too!)

Oh wow. This is always a tough one for me. But here it goes.
1. Future of Forestry - awesome guys who outrageously talented. (I listen to them every day)
2. Paper Route - some of the most gorgeous music ever.
3. Franz Schubert Gabriel Faure - I am cheating...for that is two different composers that I am going to count as one to squeeze in other artists. ;-)
4. Mumford & Sons - one of my new favorites
5. Hillsong United - their music has got me through some really tough times.

4. what are some of your favorite things/hobbies?

One of my favorite things is the autumn season and hopefully by the time people are reading this autumn has finally decided to show up where I live (central California). I love the feel of it, the atmosphere, the smells - cinnamon, vanilla, and pumpkin spice. - and of course the fiery colors in all the trees as they turn.

Hobbies: To list only a couple I love watching lame movies with my little sister and I love to bake!

{GIVEAWAY TIME}
Jocelyn is giving away 2 PIECES!
1.the Verdigris Leaves Layered Necklace, "which has been a favorite of mine for a while."
2. one of her newly designed adjustable rings, The Majestic. "I think I shall be making a lot of those in different colors because they are super fun."

  12. Beautiful jewelry! :) I "liked" Flowerleaf on Facebook and had a wonderful time exploring the Etsy shop. Definitely hard to narrow it down to a favorite. The Librarian ring is lovely, as is The Autumn Owl necklace and the Autumn Leisure necklace. Gorgeous work, Jocelyn!
