{ LOOK - I won this IRIS GOLD Jewelry from Georgia in Greece}

On Monday the postman rang the doorbell with a small parcel I had to sign for. It came from Greece... all the way from the Old World. Greece was my favorite country in history classes and look now; I won this beautiful IRIS GOLD piece of jewelry from Georgia, from: Armoniaart.blogspot.com. This hyperlink shows you all three giveaway pieces of jewelry... Georgia lives in Xylokastro, in the Korinthia region of Greece. Now, I cannot wait to show you my winning piece...
How about this beautiful 925 silver pendant with Brown-Red Zirkon on a black silk necklace by IRIS GOLD for a Giveaway from Armoniaart.blogspot.com?
It even does have small Zirconia on the bale and around the Zirkon crystal! 
THANKS A MILLION dear Georgia!
Look at Georgia's beautiful handwriting...
Georgia can also be found on Bloglovin; just click the hyperlink.
Beautiful stamps from Hellas...
Georgia's handwriting in more detail...
She selected her three winners together with her daughter. Actually three pieces of incredible jewelry; one for every 100 readers she got for her blog. SO GENEROUS!
Inside the parcel was this map that was wrapped around the gift...
Map from Thassos; complimentary by IRIS GOLD - what a nice gesture!
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Great and very appropriate slogan...
This has been printed by Georgia for me; how beautifully done!
The map of Thassos shows more jewelry from IRIS Gold on one side...
And finally the little green box becomes visible!
All the way from Greece...
Bi-lingual card is used for this 925 silver pendant with brown-red Zirkon crystal.
For anyone that did fall in love with this very elegant piece, you can still order it on line.
IRIS GOLD pendant with brown-red Zirkon crystal and small white zirconias.
Just click on above hyperlink!

Does blogging not give us MUCH?!

  4. My friend Mariette, thank you very much for the presentation of your gift (you received it, after your participation in the draw for 300+ readers of my blog).
    I was very touched by your so beautiful words. I live in Xylokastro in Corinthia - Greece and three gifts just bought from Iris Gold store. I have no relationship with the store, just buy from there via internet gifts, because of their good quality.
    The card has been printed by me for you . Thank YOU again, because you did a whole post about me and your gift .Always have joy and love.Kisses Georgia.
