rings & a giveaway

while on the roadtrip I didn't thrift anything...it wasn't my plan to seek places out so I just left it to fate. but obviously fate didn't think I needed anymore crap because she really didn't put many places in my path & when she did they were either closed or there wasn't anything I liked. so in the end the only thing I bought were some stones at the wall drug rock shop which I turned into rings once home:


they only cost about a dollar each then I just added a little E6000 adhesive, a
ring blank & that's that...


and I bought an extra agate to giveaway as a little thank you for putting up with all those dang photos:


just leave a comment on this post & I will announce the winner on this friday's {the 15th} post.

p.s. the ring is adjustable & feel free to enter if you live outside the usa

p.s.s. the dog says good luck & do you see what I have to put up with?!:

    Ok, first of all, I can never get enough of your photos, they are amazing bits of eye candy. Secondly, great idea on the rings, super cute!
    The dog, however, always steals the show. Such a cutie!

    are you kidding?? i loved all those dang photos...felt like i was on a much needed road trip just like the kind we used to take when i was a kid.

    Just want to say I love your trip photos, and the rings are so cool. I've collected my share of rocks on trips... I still have a pink and brown polished agate from the Meteor Crater... purchased in 3rd grade!
