Vintage Remixed Lucite Necklace Giveaway!

urbanlegend beaded lucite necklace urbanlegend Vintage NecklaceI’m SO excited about the first giveaway in our new home, friends! Today’s giveaway is from Kateri from urbanlegend, the beautiful Etsy shop full of colorful and playful jewelry and accessories. The Portland-based designer founded her shop in 2009, at a time when her love for the bold colors and rich textures of vintage plastic beads was just beginning to take shape — now, her line is a veritable treasure trove of Lucite necklaces, layering necklaces, bracelets and earrings!

“The lightweight nature of plastic makes it possible to make bold, chunky jewelry that doesn’t feel weighty, and has excellent durability, as well as being eye-catchingly beautiful,” Kateri says. “That early shop has grown over the years into a full line of jewelry focused on color and balance, and I truly love what I do.”

She’s giving this vintage remixed Lucite necklace to one lucky reader! Vintage Lucite beads in lipstick red, hot pink, glossy black and seafoam green are strung on narrow chain. Beads range in size from 1/8-1″ — I love the bold colors, don’t you? The red and green beads also remind me of the holidays; how perfect would this necklace be for a holiday party?

Vintage Remixed Lucite Necklace Giveaway!
We’ll be using Gleam this time around for entering. For your chance to win, simply visit urbanlegend, and leave a comment below telling us how you’d style this pretty piece. See above for LOTS of extra chances to win. A winner will be chosen at random on Wednesday, November 23rd, so you’ve got a whole week to enter. Have fun, friends! xoxo

Update: Sarah W. is our lucky winner! Thanks so much!

BIC Office Supplies Giveaway!

Oh, friends!! I’ve been dying to share today’s giveaway with you! For the fifth year in a row, I’m partnering with BIC for an Office Supplies Extravaganza Giveaway! BIC has become synonymous with all things writing, from pens to pencils to highlighters to colorful erasers, but it’s their Fight For Your Write campaign, which highlights and celebrates the importance of handwriting and writing in general — obviously, something I hold VERY near and dear to my heart! Where would I be — or, who would I be — without writing in my life?? Scary thought.

Writing is an important vehicle for communication because it distinguishes us and promotes individuality. Did you know that writing is also a critical learning tool for children? Writing helps kids become better readers, boosts their confidence and sparks their creativity. Together, we want to show children just how great writing can be…and how great they can be!

So, to encourage the writer in you (we’ve ALL got one, trust me!), BIC is giving one lucky reader a bonanza of office goodies! Check out everything you’ll win…

BIC’s 2016 Back-To-School Line Up:

–BIC XTRA Fun #2 Pencils with Stripes: The latest #2 pencils from BIC now come in a variety of bright, two-toned color barrels with stripes!

–BIC Velocity Side Clic Mechanical Pencils: BIC’s newest Velocity pencils feature smooth, dark leads and come in variety of translucent, vibrant colors.


–BIC Atlantis (Color, black and blue ink packs): Comfortable, rubber grip offers a bold, vivid writing experience. Even smoother than BIC classic ink system!


–BIC 4-Color Stylus and Pen: The beloved BIC 4-Color Pen is getting an upgrade in 2016 with the addition of a lightweight stylus!

–BIC Brite Liner Flex Tip Highlighter: The new, flexible tip technology makes highlighting fun and easy!

BIC Office Supplies Giveaway!

We’ll be using Gleam this time around for entering. For your chance to win, simply visit BIC, and leave a comment below telling us your FAVE office supply. See above for LOTS of extra chances to win. A winner will be chosen at random on Thursday, October 20th, so you’ve got a whole two weeks to enter. Have fun, friends! xoxo


**Please note: The giveaway is open to U.S. residents only.


(Thanks again to BIC for sending me an awesome Back-To-School package and thank you for continuing to support So About What I Said’s wonderful sponsors!)

The pretty piece comes in silver, gold or rose gold, and I love that you can add a personal touch with a name or date — up to eight characters. The possibilities are really endless, aren’t they? What would you choose that has special meaning to you?
