Hello everyone!
Today is the start of a few Halloween themed giveaways. I wanted this giveaway to end before Halloween, so here it is!
Five very awesome book charms made by Southwest Sky Jewelry on etsy!
Nancy makes these awesome little book charms based on books published before 1923 as they are public domain and there's no copyright law to get around. She also said that sometimes she adds some images to the covers that may not be on the book because so many books published before 1923 didn't have any images and the images make it much more interesting!
Authors are also welcome to request having their own books made into charms.
Are you needing a few ideas for what to do with charms? Well, the things you can use them for are endless.
Bookmarks (hang them on the top or bottom)
zipper pulls
Necklace
and the list could go on...
As you can see in the picture all these mini charms fit the Halloween 'theme'.
But she makes other awesome items as well.
She sells a variety of gorgeous items in different price points. I'm very surprised at the affordability of her items!
Keep in mind you can ask her to make custom mini book charms as well. Just contact her on her etsy.
So do you want some of her stuff ? You can buy them here.
Or you can enter to win the Halloween themed book charms right here on my blog!

For your last entry,
Leave a comment with a book(s) you would like to see made into a charm. Now keep in mind for copyright reasons she makes them from books published before 1923. But you don't need to check the published date, just name a favorite classic, if she makes it she'll double check. This can include children's books as well!
Also take note that she can make the charms per the authors request or permission for more recently published books.

ReplyDeleteLike:
The Worn-Out Dancing Shoes
The Princess in Disguise
Little Red Riding Hood
Rapunzel
Rumpelstiltskin
(The top two are faves that are some of the lesser known fairytales. Still love the originals like Cinderella, The Sleeping Beauty and Snow White...and dozens more, but will keep to the titles I listed!) ;)

How about a set of Shakespeare books, since that was what were were just studying in class? Hmmmm...Romeo & Juliet, MacBeth, The Tempest, and A Midsummer Night's Dream?
ReplyDeletemeredithfl at gmail dot com
I'm really not a classics fan, so I can't list you any idea for that, bt how about the Disney princesses? A Cinderella and a Snow White, etc...?
ReplyDeleteOr maybe ones based on some of the classic parodies, if that's legal. Like Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Romeo and Juliet and Vampires, etc.?
My favorite is the dog books. I'd love to see some more animal key chains! Cats and horses and birds and things.

My favorite book is Gone With the Wind, but it was first published in '36 I think. So there's quite a wait for that one! I do like Wuthering Heights also.
ReplyDeletelovemybabysquid@yahoo.com
Hard choice, but I think my favorite item is the 'vintage turquoise coral ring.' My mom ALWAYS wore turquoise and I picked up my love for it from her. It especially reminds me of her now that she has passed.

I really like the Dracula one, but maybe if it could be more of Dracula instead of yellow. I also think Minnie or Mickey Mouse.
