Etsy Featured Designer: Elegance for You! Plus a giveaway!

A few weeks ago we came across a super unique jewelry shop on Etsy that we immediately fell in love with - Elegance for You. The pieces are ones you won't see at your local retail store - that is the best part! They are handcrafted with style by Anna and we just adore all of her pieces - it is hard to just pick one! Read on to get to know the designer a little bit more and to WIN her favorite pair of earrings. 

We love the pink! The Fuchsia Jade & Pink Crystal Necklace ($25)  is perfect for any season! 

1.) How did you begin Elegance for You?

A little over four years ago I took a jewelry class with a friend as a hobby. I enjoyed making jewelry so much that I  made a few pieces that night and decided to bring them to work to show my coworkers. They loved them so much that they purchased them from me! I was so excited!

After that I decided to do some craft shows, at local churches and High School's, I was getting lot's of compliments and sales.  Six months later I had my jewelry at  a couple of shops, and still do.

Then in February of 2009 I heard on the radio about Etsy and decided to check it out. Few weeks later in March I opened my Etsy shop.  

Anna in her work space! 

2.) Do you have a favorite item in your shop? At the moment I'm loving the Isabella earrings.

3.) What inspires your creations? Mostly nature, colors and different textures.

4.) Besides your shop - do you have any other favorite Etsy shops? 

I have a few. I love Emilygrayjewels , Kotibeth & Lunaessence.

5.) What is up next for Elegance for You? 

I'm working on a few shows and getting ready for Christmas, making lot's of new items.

Give your ears a little shimmer with the Shimmer & Metallic Earrings ($10) 

This perfect little shop full of inexpensive but great quality items is the place to go for yourself or for those last minute holiday gifts! The prices are to great to pass up. We just adore Elegance for You!
