Saturday Blog Shopper Specials

Mention that you are a Saturday Blog Shopper and ALL jewelry ships FREE to you!


I was invited this week to take part in an Etsy group called Saturday Blog Shoppers. Of course I said yes and was super excited to do so! What a wonderful network of talented sellers. Make sure you check them out, too. There is a list of Saturday Blog Shoppers here. Please make sure you tell them waterwaif sent you!


Today for sale I have many pairs of earrings and one to fit every budget! I'd like to feature two pairs, though. They are both similar in color, both of them showcasing aqua and pink which I think look fabulous together!


This first is pink AB crystal and apatite.  AB crystal is so named because it shines like Aurora Borealis! You can find these earrings here in my Etsy shop.








The second pair I'd like to feature are these aqua chalcedony and pink tourmaline chandelier earrings. Tourmaline is a beautiful, rare, natural stone and I just love working with it (and wearing it!) You can find these earrings here in my Etsy shop.





Leave me a quick comment, if you would, to let me know what you think of these earrings or my shop. I'd love to hear from you!

Become a fan on facebook to learn about exclusive sales, updates, and discounts!

Also, please take a moment to follow the link and visit the other Saturday Blog Shoppers. You'll be sure to find some amazing deals and sellers!
