Smashing – Everything! My wife would love it all, including the teeming, the rain chains, and the reef necklace. Great work!
SilverMadeStudio’s work is amazing as well! I’m a fan of the Sterling Silver Dome Cup Ring

Smashing…It is hard to pick a favorite from your shop…your items are ALL so awesome…but since I have to make a choice I would say the teeming (necklace) bright yellow green as that color just pops for me! Then I would have to pick Time After Time Altered Art Assemblage by zJayne……another awesome piece!

I love the Rain Chains Earrings from Smashing.
And the Loop D Loop Long Blue Wrap Scarf Fiber Necklace from LazyTCrochet.
Thanks for the chance to win

My favorite item from smashing’s site (that I don’t have yet) is the unpearl (looooong) (necklace)… it’s great to find so many new great shops, too!

oo count me in! My fave item from her shop is really hard to choose! I love the alight necklace and also LOVE these teeming earrings! She has great use of color.
A current favorite from another cleveland team member is anything from vintagebroochco but especially the Spring Bling Necklace!
Thanks for the great giveaway, all!

Smashing…All your work is lovely, but the piece that really caught my eye was the evil twin “copy” bracelet, both for its obvious fun as well as for the wonderful story that goes with it! I love pieces that have a good story accompanying them. ~8)
As far as all the other tremendously talented artisans here, I found several that I thought were lovely:
LeahAnaDesigns: I, too, love your orange beads, especially the “Fire in Space Crochet Necklace.” I could totally see myself touching it all the time to feel the textures!
petitelibellule: “coeur blesse” is ADORABLE!
CopperLeafStudio: Your “Fern Forest” is exquisite.
blamethemoon: Your “Tree of Knowledge” is beautiful. I love how many of your works combine typical, everyday sights with unusual, fantasy images.
LaPetiteFleur: The “Flower Bouquet Necklace” and & especially the “Bonsai leaf” in sterling are divine.
I’d love to give more feedback, but I suppose I should be a more productive person & get off the computer now! Great work, Cleveland! I truly appreciate all the talent we have here in our city!

Smashing – I like the circles (earrings) red and aqua blue
Fusion Studios – I like Rock Star Red Pendant
Thank you!

I really enjoyed viewing many different sites but I think my favorites are….
Smashing: The Reef Necklace (very cool!)
Stonz: Mermaid Tears earrings
Then I loved the “Everything But The Kitchen Sink” necklace but forgot to write down which site it was on. Gee, I guess I’ll just have to go back and do some more shopping to find it! We sure have a lot of very talented people in Cleveland!

I love Smashing’s “alight” necklace! Very creative. Good luck all at winning these sweet earrings!

I had to make a latte, settle in, and browse. Fun fun! From Smashing, the Bridgitte bracelet definitely caught my eye. So vibrant and whimsical. Love love it. Also liked the hula dark red earrings.
From the Cleveland Team, every Stonz item stood out. Wrapt Pearl necklace is my all time favorite. Photohale’s Foggy Day print receives honorary mention.
Thanks for this great giveaway! — karen
