"And the 2nd SPA goes to..."

This was a toughie. Ultimately, because of the Halloweeny + Autumny feel of the necklace, I choose two Smarty Pants Award ("SPA") winners -- thepaperbluebird and wendiwinn. CONGRATS! on winning this very prestigious award!

thepaperbluebird said:

I looked at your necklace and all I could think was
"Jungle Fire, Jungle Fire, JUNGLE FIRE!!!"

I swear I could hear drums beating in my head
(or maybe I just need a psychiatrist?)

and one of wendiwinn's entries just made me laugh:

i totally want that oriental banana smarty pants award.
what about candy corn?

prettyfun came up with lots of good names, including one that I'm already using for another necklace!

I will list the necklace on Etsy as Candy Corn until Halloween. If it hasn't sold by then {sniff}, I'll rename it Jungle Fire, Jungle Fire, JUNGLE FIRE!!!. Thanks for playing! Let's do this again soon!

"Hello, my name is..."

I love these beads, and think this necklace would make a great addition to someone's fall wardrobe. I can't just list it as an Orange Coral Briolettes Necklace, though... So, let's have another contest!

Name this necklace! Let those creative juices flow and send in your entries via comments. I'll pick one and use it in the eventual listing (this weekend, if my camera cooperates!). No good deed goes unrecognized. You will be mentioned in said listing and win the 2nd Oriental Banana Smarty Pants Award ("SPA")! Imagine how prestigious that will look on your resume :)

the long & winding road

While I still have a long ways to go, the past few weeks have been extremely busy... but very educational!
