Entries for this giveaway have been closed, thanks!
I am so excited to share with you the beautiful jewelry of my sponsor, Pretty Things By Meg! All of her pieces are made with such detail, care and love, I would know because I actually own the falling leaves earrings (you can see me modeling them here) and the faux patina turquoise earrings! And I can’t wait to get a hold of one of her coveted ruffle necklaces some day too! In addition to her lovelies, Meg also has a fun blog called {Meg’s Musings} where she shares her shop updates, life happenings, photography, inspirations and more! And bonus points from her since she lives in Michigan (for those of you who didn’t know, that’s where I was born and lived for 21 years)!
{MEET MEG}
1) Tell us a little about yourself.
Hi, my name’s Megan (Meg/Megs for short) 🙂 I’m a wife to a wonderful, ridiculously talented man, a momma to a fluffy, fun-loving cockapoo, and a daughter of the King. I (mostly) grew up in the mitten (aka Michigan), and I currently reside in an old (100 yrs+), charming house in downtown Rochester, a quaint suburb of Detroit. Besides making jewelry, I really enjoy cooking, traveling, playing the ukulele (still learning) & singing, crafting, reading and decorating. Oh, and blogging 🙂
2) How did you get into making jewelry?
Boredom and a great desire within me to create. My day job at the time left no room for creativity & I was yearning for a creative outlet. I had long had an interest in creating jewelry because I’ve always loved to accessorize. And I figured I could teach myself, so I did just that!
3) What are some of your most popular items?
My line of ruffle necklaces, which i just released in the fall; the faux patina turquoise earrings, the lolita necklace, and the falling leaves.
4) If you could drop everything and travel to one place, where would it be?
Soo hard to choose just one place, but I would really love to go to Greece. That is where I had long dreamed of going to for my honeymoon, but it was just too pricey. One day..
5) What is your favorite ice cream flavor?
Homemade Brand Peanut Butter ‘N Chip – hands down. I actually haven’t had it in some time because it’s not easy to find.. now I’ve got an extreme craving – think I’ll have to find me some tonight!!
