Designer of the Month ~ The Vintage Pearl ~ Win a beautiful bracelet!



Update! The Winner has been chosen for this contest. Thank you to everyone for your participation! See New Post for Winner info!


















Erin from The Vintage Pearl is a wonderful designer with such a love of the world and her family, and you can see it in her designs. We just adore her work and apparently so do our fabulous customers! We get lots of requests for her great jewelry and you guys keep buying it, so we know she has to be doing something right!!
We recently asked her to answer a few questions for our fun blog and she was thrilled to play along!

Tell us about yourself.
I'm Erin, a busy but blessed Mom of 3 and wife to a great guy. I love making unique jewelry for Moms and little ones to cherish. I also love to play soccer and shop!!!

What made you want to create, did you always know you wanted to do something creative?
I had a daughter that needed some accessorizing!!! I grew up playing sports, didn't really let my "creative cat out" until I was staying home with all 3 of my children and wanted a way to bring in some income. I fell in love with making jewelry, and I have the perfect model!

Whats your favorite food?
Well, I love LOTS of different foods, but my favorite would be Mexican- I LOVE chicken chimichangas---yum!

What inspires you?

Colors, textures, fabrics... I will see colors together somewhere or a pretty pattern and decide I HAVE to make something with those colors together. It happens all of the time! I love bold, rich colors and lots of contrast.


What your favorite word to say?
Sensational

If you could teach a child one thing, what would it be?
To be nice and accepting of everyone.

Do you consider yourself to be a Silly Wagon?
I am DEFINITELY a Silly Wagon--- just today I was wearing my daughter's socks as toe warmers and flew to the moon as Bat Mom!


Thanks Erin! We think you are SENSATIONAL! And Erin thinks our Silly Wagon customers are pretty sensational, too! The Vintage Pearl is giving away a gorgeous silver and pearl bracelet, as shown at the very top of our post, with your own personalized quote, name or thought! Just leave a comment by September 30th, for a chance to win! Winning comment will be chosen randomly and winner will be notifies via email, so make sure we have your contact info!

Good luck and thanks again to Erin of The Vintage Pearl!
