Wednesday Wellspring: inky star shop

Congratulations to #21 Mrs. Milne for winning creative.hodge.podge's amazing secret book!
And this week, the well is overflowing with gorgeous vintage goodness from inky star shop (that's right, from our newest RNEST bloggist of Trash and Treasures Tuesday)! Kaitlin's shop is full of beautiful new and repurposed vintage jewelry and original, eclectic photography. It is one fun shop to explore! For this week's giveaway, she is offering a lovely necklace, measuring 18" long with a 2" extender. It is made from vintage beads collected from a friend's beautiful vintage necklace that, over the years, lost its shape. Kaitlin immediately fell in love with the turquoise colored beads and made plans to reinvent them in new pieces. With the addition of a few new beads and a unique side blossom the vintage beads great a fresh, new style.

Now, for the rules (This giveaway is open to US and Canada!):

MANDATORY ENTRY #1: Go to inky star shop, heart the shop, and then leave a comment here telling me your favorite item.
MANDATORY ENTRY #2: Become a follower of this blog and leave a comment letting me know- or if you are already, leave a comment saying you're a loyal follower.

BONUS ENTRIES (leave a separate comment for each):
1. Become a fan of RNEST on Facebook.
2. Become a follower of Kaitlin's blog.
3. Tweet and blog about this giveaway and leave a comment here with the link.

The winner will be chosen using the random number generator on Tuesday, June 15 and will be announced in the next Wednesday Wellspring.

    I "hearted" The Inky Star Shop - along with several of Kaitlin's delightful designs.

    I think my favorite is the lovely Pearl Burst Necklace, (and the prize is gorgeous too.)

    But I must add that I t hink the Pin - Floral is absolutely adorable and clever, while the Alice's Spare Key Necklace is both pretty and witty!
