My name is Daria and I am the creator of D'Luxe Designs - luxuriouly handcrafted jewelry and gifts.
Out of frustration from looking for a certain pair of handmade earrings I couldn't find, I was encouraged by friends to make my own. I did, and I have been creating jewelry ever since.
Please join me in congratulating Elsie from Eastlake, Ohio for winning my Etsy Anniversary Giveway. Elsie will receive the Secret Life of Leaves bracelet.
I find it hard to believe it was just one year ago today that I launched my Etsy shop, D' Luxe Designs. I'd already begun building my greeting card portfolio, when my friend Jen suggested I give Etsy a try.
Unknown to me at the time, being on Etsy has opened several doors to me.
From joining the etsy street teams and interacting with other handmade artists, I 've met many great people and learned alot to take my business to the next level. I've even developed a following at local craft shows and been contacted by a few retailers to carry both my jewelry and greeting card lines.
To celebrate, I am sponsoring the "D'Luxe Designs Anniversary Giveway".
Just leave a comment for this post and you will be eligible to win the bracelet above. This design is called "The Secret Life of Leaves". A blank D'Luxe Designs greeting card will be included with your shipment. Entry deadline is March 11, 2009. Limited to U.S. entries.
