I'm late yet again posting about the giveaway I promised for this week.
Better late than never!
You can easily double or triple the strands for lots of possibilities.
They are in good shape with a gold toned clasp
I have a few strands similar to these and wear them often.
They add a touch of elegnace to any outfit.
If you would like to enter to win this giveaway:
1. Leave a comment
2. Become a follower, or let me know you are a new follower.
Random Generator will choose the winner on
Wednesday July 21st.
Bonne chance!
Yesterday was Bastille Day in France.
Unfortunately it rained throughout the big parade,
but it cleared up just in time for the fireworks at La Tour Eiffel
Here is a short video of the festivities
We had a great spot at the foot of the Eiffel Tower

Put a Little Ooh La La in Your Life!

How pretty! I'm already following also. :) Glad the rain cleared up for you. Brenda
Gorgeous and so classic
My dearest Mimi! Happy belated Bastille Day!
Your giveaway is so lovely. And I would have so many uses for a strand of jet black antique beads, but I am not participating in this wonderful giveaway (sniff, sob!) I have been on a winning streak lately and have won 5 giveaways in the last 5 months, so I think someone else should have a chance.
Better than the beads is your wonderful friendship! That is the real treasure to me.
I did get our email. Everything is okay~ I have just had a rough patch this weekend and beginning of the week. I have an absessed tooth. Can you believe it! It's under control now. I'll be planning to get to LeDew in the next week or two.
I'll write this weekend.
Thank you dear one for your wonderful friendship!

Happy Bastille Day. Thank you so so much for posting this video, I can now vicarously live through it, pretending each night that I'm at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. It almost made me cry the sheer beauty of it!
I follow you. What a beautiful video!
