Great Gaboon Ebony Bangle Giveaway

Well, here we are, and as I have promised, when my blog following reached 50, I would give away one of my gorgeous exotic wood cuffs. I thought about which wood to use, and a favorite Bible verse came to mind, when a man asks for your cloak, give him your coat also. My interpretation of this is if you are going to give something away, give the best, not the worst you've got. So, since I love working ebony wood, this is my first choice. It is glamorous, showy, sensual, earthy, ethnic, and sexy all wrapped up into one, but best of all, it polishes like glass! Absolutely none other like it, in my mind. And here is the bangle you will receive if you are the lucky winner:

These are the requirements that will count towards how many times you are entered into the drawing to win:

Please post all in the comments below, the more you can help to promote me, the more chances for you to win. Each separate action counts as one more time your name will go into the pot.

1.  You must be already following or follow my blog, and post your blogger id in the comments below.

2.  You must follow or like my Jewelry by Janelle Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/pages/Jewelrybyjanelle50-at-Etsycom/101935135915?__a=1

3. You must post a link to your favorite item in my Etsy shop, and tell me why you like it. http://www.etsy.com/shop/jewelrybyjanelle50 

4.  You must follow me on Twitter, I am exoticsjanelle http://twitter.com/exoticsjanelle . Please post your handle on Twitter below so I know who you are.

5.  Writing a blog post about me and my exotic wood jewelry isn't a must, but gets 3x your name in the pot. If you do this, be sure to post your blog link below.

6. You must Twitter this givewaway blog post with the link to my blog at least once, and post a link to it below.

7.  You must promote this at least once on your Facebook page, and post the link to it below.

7  Big chances to win! Spead the word to your friends and family. Be sure and  post your email  in the first post you make, so that I can notify you if you are the lucky winner. The drawing will take place on January 31, 2011, and winner will be notified by email for contact and shipping information.

Best of luck, and most of all, have fun!

    My favorite is this: http://www.etsy.com/listing/57861336/pink-ivory-exotic-wood-pendant-necklace. I love the pink ivory, the shape of the pendant, and the way the wood looks with the brass.

    I'm a fan of big unique pendant necklaces that make a statement. I don't normally buy understated. ;) I really like your Autumn Leaves Floral Pendant Necklace:

    and your Purpleheart Heart Shaped Pendant Necklace:

    I also added your shop to my Etsy favs.

    I'm not entering the giveaway, congratulations on your blog, I dig your new gothic line, it is quirky. I like a lot of the timbers you carve with so would be hard pressed to choose a favorite , the ebony one is beautiful, and I really like the zebrawood cuff too.

    Okay, I have to pick just one favorite? Well, I already bought the hairstick I loved best as a gift so I'll go for this one...

    Alas that I cannot wear it! (But I love it nevertheless)

    I've always loved the donut necklaces, especially "Curly Cherry Exotic Wood Donut Necklace Suede Cord". :) However, my current favourite is the "Pink Ivory Teardrop Pendant Necklace with Rhinestone Bail". <3
