Just a little peek at a giveaway I'm doing after the weekend. I need to regain my sanity after the big local show I'm in and THEN I can focus on spoiling you guys with more deals and freebies.
The Gem Necklace. Sparkly. Sessy. Great with any fall wardrobe.
You all know how completely obsessed I am with damask print. An item I'm crushing on, compliments of JuliaSherryDesigns.

Jill of Blue Serendipity Designs contacted me over the weekend. This talented lady from Ireland and I conversed on and off all weekend on how similiar we are, from our pieces, props to even our names!
We both fell in love with jewelry from each others shops and decided to trade. She mentioned her love of cajun food, so with her new Sparkling Blueberry Earrings and Earth Goddess Ring (below) I'm sending some cajun specialties with love from Louisiana! :)
The gorgeous Midnight Rendevous Necklace I'm anxiously awaiting from her shop:
And the pieces she chose from my shop:
The two pieces above will be relisted in my shop in the next week or so. I'm not sure if the necklace from Jill's shop is one of a kind or not, but she has other stunning pieces so go check her out.
I just love a trade...
*rubbing hands together*
If I could eat these beads, I would.
The weather is so nice out that I'm taking frequent breaks from finishing up orders and pieces for my fall line to warm my face in the sun. The Mini Monster is loving these breaks as well!
Life is grand. *sigh* Here's what I've been up to lately: (scroll down for specials at JillryLove.com!)
Making way for my new colorful chunky summer sets...
First I marked everything in my online shop down 20% off. Then I went even lower, placing $10-14 dollar items in $6, $7, and $8 sections! (That's over 40% off most items!)
Click here for Jillry!!
Shop now while there are still some goodies left! All leftovers will be placed in my Sissy's shop in town, never to be seen again!
FREE SHIPPING for orders $20 and over.
Have fun and thanks for popping in! xo Jill
Like Donkey Kong. (Not sure where that came from...)
Hey girls - sorry I'm late getting this going today. See below for rules, they'll probably change every time I do one of these... Still working out the kinks!
Everything in the Five Dollar Friday section is game.
RULE: Buy one item at REGULAR PRICE and receive the next item(s) for just FIVE DOLLARS. Five Dollar items are only those found in the FIVE DOLLAR FRIDAY Section. The regular price item will be the highest priced item or anything chosen outside of the FDF Section.
Put your items in the cart and proceed to checkout as far as you can without paying. I will send you a revised invoice shortly reflecting the discount.
Buy three or more items and get FREE SHIPPING!
Stay tuned for Mother's Day Sales!

Thanks!!

Hey girls! Yes, Five Dollar Friday is on in my shop: www.jilllamonte.etsy.com
Please remember that you must purchase two or more items to receive the items at $5 each. I'm hoping you will be honest when playing so I can keep FDFs going. Check out the details below if you need a refresher, thanks!
On other subjects - I'm back and refreshed from our cruise! I have tons of photos and in fact, am a little overwhelmed by them. After resizing them all to posting size I'll be uploading them. I also have a cd of photos from the wedding - I KNOW, almost 4 months ago and I'm just now going to post them! Anyways...
So what have I missed??
Hello lovelies!
I have a new, irresistable deal going on now. However, you MUST play by the rules if you want the discount! Meaning, this deal starts on FRIDAYS.
On Fridays only, if you purchase two or more items from my shop, you receive them at just $5 DOLLARS EACH! Yes, I'm crazy.
To receive this offer, place items in your cart and message me for an invoice reflecting the super discount!
http://www.jilllamonte.etsy.com/
Please note: all items in shop apply except for necklaces. Items must be placed in cart after midnight on Thursdays to receive the discount.
Local ladies: You can simply email me or message me through Facebook or Myspace with the items you want to purchase. Five Dollar Fridays are also taking place at Salon Trio in Central. Check out my stash of Jillry there as well!
- Please be aware that all of my items are one of a kind, with just a few exceptions, so this is first come first serve. I go by time on Etsy convos and emails. -
Also, if you're in town, I'm available on Five Dollar Fridays to drop by your office with my stash during lunch. With a full time job, I just can't seem to find the time to list every jewelry item I create, so I have a large stash of goodies just waiting to be worn.

Thanks for shopping! And, GOOD LUCK! :)
The computer is still acting up at home, but at least I can sneak a post in at work when its slow. However, after two days off, work has been a little busier than usual, so I'm just getting around to popping into the blogesphere. I have so many posts of yours to read, I can't wait for some free time to see what you've all been up to.
Operation Skinny Bitch. Not going to call it that anymore, just going to log in here with my progress spuratically. The site just has chics "check in" every Wednesday, so I'm not really inspired, nor do I like to whine about when I haven't lost. I doubt you'll care either way. *snort*
So - on my journey to be cruise ready, I lost two pounds this week. Wahoo! I know, not a huge loss, but a loss nonetheless. Even got a little exercise in this week. Tuesday J and I both had off together, so we went walking at the conservation park by our home and also did a little exploring in the woods behind our house with the Mini Monster. I think it was a treat for all of us, especially since its been too cold lately to want to be outside at all.
Got a few new lovelies in the shop yesterday:
Going to put up more. I have them all photographed, but finding the time to sneak it in at work is unlikely.
Stay tuned, I've got a cd from my friend of wedding pics. I realize I've never posted any on here, though I do have them posted on my myspace and facebook. And no, they are not the photog's photos. Don't get me started on them. Its been months since the wedding and we still haven't received everything from them. So, I'll be posting my friend's pics, hopefully sometime today.
Oh and on the weight loss front - my dear husband quit smoking, oh about 5-6 weeks ago. I posted before about the effects quitting has and he's around the point in time where his appetite is coming back. And its in rare form. I love it! There is nothing more gratifying to me than to bake and prepare stuff for my husband, whether it be for dinner or to bring to work. Last weekend I baked sweet cinnamon apples and banana nut muffins for him to bring to work. Now I'm on a mission to make something new for him this weekend. Any suggestions? (It must fit in his lunchbox and not need a microwave.)
See y'all soon. Miss you like crazy. :)
