First Mondays Giveaway August Edition!

Congratulations to Erin M. of good ol' NYC, who won a fabulous pink leather card case and a pair of handcrafted earrings in last month's giveaway!

This month, we have a nature theme (my favorite!), representing land, air and sea. First up is an absolutely stunning photo by Zahner Photo. Do yourself a favor and look at his amazing underwater shots. This is one of my favorites and in person, it's spectacular. Terence Zahner has been a certified scuba diver for over 10 years and finds inspiration in shadows and patterns. His photos let us in on a magical world that most of us will never see,

Next up, and a little to the left of realism, are Bugged Out's adorable set of cards. Click here to see all the cheerful bugs that will be represented in your collection. I was going to tell you my favorite, but I can't pick just one. I can guarantee that receiving one of these bugs will brighten anyone's day! I love the vibrant colors that Dina, the creator, employs in her t-shirts and totes, too.

Here is a sweet and tiny starfish bubble pendant by Ami Nyitray. Browsing Ami's etsy shop is like a visit to an old curiosity shop where every drawer is filled with something unique, fascinating, and even sometimes a little creepy (but in a good way!) Ami's love of science and ephemera inspire her jewelry, apparel, and artwork.
