Michelle and Brittany

You know I like to show off other artisans, well, other bloggers are fun too. Today, you get both.

Brittany writes a blog, The Greer 5. You will find lots of reviews, giveaways, tips, recipes and tidbits of life. She has a giveaway going on now until the 9th for a $30 Skin Free gift certificate. Her review sounds great, so hop on over before it's over. There is also a giveaway for a more mature item...you'll just have to go see for yourself :)

Michelle writes her blog, Michabella Creations, and creates fab jewelry. You can see some of the newer creations she brought to a recent show here and on her Facebook page. But I also need to share one of my faves:

Michabella Creations

Looking for some Spring jewelry? or just a fun blog to read? Well look no further.

The duo at Michabella Creations have got you covered.
The blog follows "the Crazy Life of a Stay at Home Mom and Jewelry Designer! ... in my ventures through motherhood and business."
That is not the only place to find her writing. She posted about an article she wrote as a jeweler...check it out here.

And the jewelry...awesome! Just look at these earrings...a set of four different blooms...

Skwigga-zine blogger - Michabella Creations

I just joined Skwigga-zine (gotta love the name) and like many of these communities, we try to help each other out in whatever way we can. They have featured bloggers, just like my etsy team has featured sellers...and I just love looking into everyone's shops and blogs. Future posts about featured bloggers may not be structured quite like this...but the first time is always the most fun.

Michabella is actually two friends who bead and create their own jewelry. Michelle gets to stay home with her kids and has found that making jewelry gives her a way to express her creativity. Cindy started out making cancer bracelets for the Relay for Life. They are also very involved with their community. They have sold cancer awareness items and been able to donate to many charities such as the PA Breast Cancer Coalition, the American Cancer Society, and the SPCA.

On their blog you can find loads of beautiful jewelry that they feature and some personal pieces from their lives. One of which is an adorable 3 year old daughter! So cute :)

You can find their pieces on their website. Rings, watches, bracelets, pearls, gemstones...
