Win a lovely felt necklace

by Erika Jurney on May 6, 2009

Update: the winner is #39, Asma!

Gaze upon these fantastic pendants made from felt and buttons, and you’ll see why you’re going to want to be wearing these colorful beauties this spring and summer.

Poor Robin specializes in handmade jewelry in the mediums of buttons and felt. What started out as something to mess around with while waiting for a silver order to ship for my first shop has become a successful and thriving color peddling concern! I take a huge amount of joy from seeing different color combinations come together harmoniously, so any customer is sure to get a treasure that was made with love.

To enter to win your choice of whimsical felt pendant (value $16), just leave a comment on this post. {rules} Contest closes midnight Pacific time on Friday, May 8. Good luck!
