October Rosary Give Away Contest

Czech Glass Blue Matte Rosary

Little Flowers Garden

As part of our celebration of October as the month of the rosary, the Etsy Rosary Guild is excited about offering our Rosary Give Away Contest.

This month's beautiful prize was donated by Marianne of the Little Flowers Garden on etsy. Marianne can describe this lovely rosary better than I can. "This rosary features 8mm Czech glass beads with a rainbow (AB) finish. The matte effect makes it more of a glow than a sparkle. The Our Father beads are enhanced with filigree beadcaps. The center is a heart shaped full color depiction of Mary. An ornate crucifix finishes this rosary. All wire looped together by hand. The total length is 23". This will arrive in a little pouch with a holy card "Mysteries of the Rosary", all ready for giving." The value of this stunning rosary is $35.00.

Would you like a chance to win this rosary? Just take a look at the instructions below and have at it! We would love for you to enter this contest as many times as you like. This month's contest will end at Midnight on Sunday, October 17, 2010.

Open to US residents only

Okay…here’s the scoop! The Etsy Rosary Guild is a group of artisans who make beautiful, hand crafted rosaries and jewelry and we are dedicated to using our art as a witness to our faith as well as using it to help support ourselves and are families. Naturally, we want to let the world in on what we are doing, so we have decided to have a monthly give away as a means of advertising our creations. We started doing this in June and so far, our give aways have been enormously successful. We are hoping that you would like to get in on the action.

You can enter as many times as you wish…no purchase necessary. However, if you find that you would like to buy something, we won’t stop you! :)
