Hello belles and beaus!  I decided to do a little CONTEST as a thank you to you all for reaching 1800 followers!  There can be two winners to this contest and you’ll receive a handmade, one-of-a-kind gift from me!  What will you win?  I’ll show you! 

FIRST PRIZE:

A handmade keychain featuring a cameo pendant in cream and sage, small vintage pearls, silver link chain (not shown) and a burnt wine ribbon bow accented by a button from 1945!  All crafted by yours truly at a total of $35.00.  This is for my more girly followers and is the perfect accessory for keys and clutches.

SECOND PRIZE:

A handmade keychain featuring a large mossy agate stone (found at Mammoth Cave in Kentucky), a brass peace charm, vintage pearl, a brass feather charm, and a burnt wine ribbon decorated in vintage buttons and small charms!  All crafted by yours truly a total of $30.00!  This is for my more rough-and-tumble, not-scared-to-get-muddy followers.  It’s a perfect accessory for keys and clipping onto jeans.

What do you have to do to win?  You have two options:

1.  Reblog this post and tell me what you think a Southern Belle’s perfect accessory is!  Get creative!  You can get on Polyvore and make a board, you can link an entire Pinterest board, but it has to be unique and you have to give reasons why!

2.  Make a video featuring YOUR favorite accessory.  Tell me where you got it, how much it was, what outfits you pair it with, and why you think it is the perfect accessory!  Get creative.  You can reblog this post with a link to the video.

And here are the rules…

• You must be at least 13 years old and a resident of the United States.  (Sorry to all my followers outside of the U.S. and under 13.)  If you are under the age of 18, you must have your parents permission to enter this contest.
• You must submit one of the two options to be considered for the prize.  Only one entry per follower please!  I want to keep this as fair as possible.
• You have until August 1st to enter the contest.  At midnight, no more entries will be accepted and this post will become hidden.
• Once selected, you will be informed via Tumblr Inbox that you have one.  You will have a week to reply so we can work out the details of mailing your prize.  If you do not respond within a week, your will be disqualified and a new person will be drawn.
• Winners will be picked by a random number generator! 

Good luck to all my followers!  I love you all so much and thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting the blog!  I am forever grateful for you all supporting my dreams. 

(Also, stay tuned for a future Google+ hangout where you get to meet me, Katie, and we get to spend an hour talking, gossiping, sharing stories, and all kinds of other fun stuff!)

Love from Your Favorite Southern Belle
