Wednesday Giveaway : Superhero
Tags:
Today I want to celebrate a wonderful blogger, jewelry artist, mother, and life coach who has become a friend: Andrea Scher of Superhero Designs. [ photo below by Boho Girl Denise Andrade ]
Andrea is the reason I began blogging back in 2004. I was working on a project for a workshop about designing with color (& color inspiration) and was searching the internet using the search terms "colorful jewelry." I stumbled onto Andrea's Superhero site (and of course I had to order a handmade necklace as part of my research), started reading her blog and checking out all her inspiring links, and decided then and there that what she was doing was cool and I wanted to start my own blog.
I finally got to meet Andrea in person last summer after corresponding back and forth from time to time over the past four years. It was awesome. She has a heart of gold, a wonderful written voice, and a gift for helping people get in touch with their own inner superhero.
Today, lucky readers, Andrea is giving away a one of her fantastic, colorful bead necklaces. In addition, she has a special holiday sale happening now that includes $20 off necklaces bead necklaces. Passion would make a great gift for a special friend (or a suggestion for a spouse who may need a little help in choosing a Valentine gift).
Here's a little FAQ on her lovely necklaces. She has also added these very cool silver pendant necklaces to her offerings.
To be entered into the drawing today leave a comment that highlights your own personal superpower (or superpowers). And before you think you have none, stop and consider the possibility
for a moment. What is something you are just awesome at? Take a
minute to be proud of something about ourselves and share it publicly.
I bet you are your very own superhero in some very special way.
Comments will be closed at 8pm Pacific tonight with the winner posted shortly after.

I would have to say that my superpower is being a good friend and hostess. I love to have people over to our home: cook for them, laugh, enjoy eachother.Since we dont have a big family, I treat our friends often. I think it's the Sicilian in me! :)

I've been eyeing those bead necklaces for a while now, to win one would be wonderful! My super powers are...I'm extremely organized, a supreme multi-tasker, yet extremely calm in the midst of a crisis...and I can pack stuff into a car for moving like nobody's business.

My 'superpower' would be the ability to set my mind to something and then go after it no matter what it takes. Go ME!!

I would never consider this a superpower, but I guess to some it is. I am a pro at doing a hundred things at once, and being OCD and organizing.

I spend as much time as I can (3-4 days a week) with my 87 yo father-in-law, who suffers from dementia. He's a pleasure to be with, so it really is no sacrifice. I am blessed to be able to do it.

Hi Ali,
Thanks for the chance to win. My superpower is having good intuition. Be it knowing when my kids need a hug or some space or knowing when a friend needs a good cry.
