Supernatural Specimen Giveaway Contest!

I've recieved a bunch of emails from people asking if I will be listing anymore Supernatural Specimens! Here's the deal...I got a wholesale order from Bona Drag! I'm so honored, she has a amazing selection of jewelry! Once I get my Website up and running I will start offering them again, but until then they will be offered exclusively through Bona Drag! However, Bona Drag will only be selling my Butterfly and Snake Medicine Specimens. So if you saw one in my shop that you love...such as a root, bone, seeds or other such...see below...contact me and I will make one especially for you!

These are the Butterfly and Snake Medicine Specimens before I added the jump rings and chains. The Butterfly Specimens are made from a collection of vintage butterflies I bought on Etsy...and the Snake Specimens are made from the snake shed of my friend Viva's Boa, Morpheus!

I made two prototypes using small vials, but Heather opted for the larger ones. Soooo...I'm going to do a Give-Away! Leave me a comment...and I'll draw the names of 2 lucky people and list the winners next Sunday! Don't be shy...you might win! Good Luck! xo Lavona

    Congratulations! I'm so excited for you! Your shop really does harbor some amazing rarities though so I'm honestly not surprised that Bona Drag picked up on it. I'll always be a fan.

    Lovely, as usual. Makes me wish my friend had room for her planned butterfly house. If I win the butterfly one I shall give it to her to remind her of her dream hobby.

    But the snake one shall be for me, since she already has snakes. *giggles*
