Swarovski Crystal Necklace and Earring Set GIVE-A-WAY

My First GIVE-A-WAY!!!!

Since I started blogging and following blogs, I have been fortunate enough to win a few give-a-ways myself, so I thought it was time to hold a give-a-way of my own. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, but then I remembered something...

A few months ago the school that I work for held a Silent Auction to benefit the Parent Teacher Association which helps support the programs at our school. They had a tremendous amount of Gift Baskets that were assembled with an abundance of donations from the community, parents, students, and teachers. I had the chance to browse the selection early in the evening and made several bids. At the end of the night I found out that my bid had won for this Handmade Swarovski Crystal Necklace and Earring Set Basket. I also found out at the same time that my bid had surpassed the Dean of the School's bid on this basket....thankfully she wasn't too upset and was happy to see the teachers supporting the Silent Auction too. I actually don't even wear jewelery (except my wedding ring), I was just trying to support my school.

So, as a 'Thank You' to my readers, I am passing on my good fortune.

According to the tag on the Silent Auction Basket this is a Handmade Swarovski Crystal Necklace and Earring Set valued at $90.00.
