WillOaks Studio Giveaway!

I have had my eye on this etsy shop for quite some time now.
Karen, jewelry artist and creator of


continues to surprise and delight with her gorgeous lines of beaded necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. I've watched her shop expand and evolve as new inspiration breaths life into silk ribbon, freshwater pearls, czech glass seed beads and other gorgeous materials.

One of her newest lines is called Made With Silk in which she creates gorgeous textural pieces through composing beads and pearls on strands of crocheted silk.



Another new line which Karen has titled Pearl Bibs feature neat multi strand rows of beautiful organically shaped pearls hung on sterling silver rings with artisan dyed (and bought on etsy) silk ribbon closures.


Each year Karen creates something special for Valentine's Day.
Here's this year's special little something:


You can find WillOaks studio on twitter and read more about her work on her blog.


Karen is giving away:

(1) $25 gift certificate
