What a treat we have lined up for us! My friend Ekaterina, who runs The Best Beads in the Czech Republic, has offered us a giveaway, plus...well an extra giveaway. In fact, everybody who enters is going to win!
First of all, 3 lucky people are going to win a selection of the beads shown above that Ekaterina sent to me. Not quite all of them, because I'm going to using some to make a project to share with you in the future. But I will be giving away most of them, for sure!
And second...you're not going to believe this...EVERYONE who signs up to enter will receive a gift card from Ekaterina to use in her store! How generous is that??
GIVEAWAY ALERT!!!
So here's what you need to do...please read this carefully, because only people who follow these instructions will be eligible to win. And I want you all to win! Visit The Best Beads and come back here to tell us what style of Czech beads you love the best. Then sign your comment with your email address. We will not be following links to find it; you must leave it here in your comment. You are welcome to spell it out if you'd prefer, for example, cyndi at mazeltovjewelry dot com. If you tweet or post on Facebook or other social spots about the contest, you can leave a second comment and be entered twice! Deadline: March 6, 2013

My favorites from the shop are any of the Czech seed beads. I was raised on them in my tribe and use mostly Czech seed beads. I also like the Picasso balls and the 2 way faceted Picasso fire polish beads. A beader can never have enough Czech beads.

Czech Glass Beads / Fire Polished Beads / Faceted Rounds most of the colors were beautiful...
I enjoyed MOST of the colors BUT especially "30pcs Gold Faceted Rounds Fire Polished Beads 8mm"
...now if there were 4or6 mm then there would be no guessing I WOULD LOVE THEM. 'crafty21061'

Comment: Hello my name is Monica and I am entering the contest for the Czech beads that you are offering. I love Czech bead, all styles. I am new to beading and I have a love of vintage jewelry styles. Czech beads open the door for me when it comes to vintage styles. I can create my own "vintage" with any variety of Czech beads as the style and and construction of these beads fulfill all my needs in creating beautiful styles, no matter if they are vintage or not. As I said, I am new into the beading world, winning this contest would help me in every way as I will be able to create with beautiful Czech beads, be able to share my creations on the internet and advertise for Czech beads and The Best Beads web page. Thank you for considering my application. Thank you for offering a contest that could help all beaders who enter. My email address is monicajolly1001@yahoo.com
