Im a big fan of blue! Would be really lucky to win something blue.. It's been my favorite color since i was a little kid.

Anyway, my favorite item is "A Case of the Blues Cuff Bracelet". It's gorgeous & i love the overall effect!

I'm a blue freak so this was tough!
But Maladora's Blue and Gold Nudibranch Bracelet really makes me smile.

Blue Hawaii cuff is awesome and I want to win for my sweet mother. I love it and I know she is crazy for blue!!!rachelcrisman@hotmail.com

This is Sapphire Blue but it is very close to the Cobalt Blue color that has been my favorite since Crayola had in their 64 crayon layout years ago. Maybe I should check and see if it is still a crayon color. Then I could decorate some t_shirts.

First of all, thanks for the generous give-away. This is so fun!
I love the Serendipity Raku Focus Bead: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_2&listing_id=12406137

It's beautiful!

Melody Marie Murray November 27, 2008 at 11:45 AM  

My favorite blue item today are the Liberace Cuffs by TheJadeDog!

Jax November 27, 2008 at 1:07 PM  

There is so many pretty things but Know Your Place . . . In the Food Chain Peyote Cuff is my favorite! I love the pattern.

Blue is one of my favorite colors, and so very versatile.
Searching through the BAO selections, I see so many unique and innovative pieces. I am partial to the Beaded Fabric and Peyote Cuff (2019) http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_list_2&listing_id=5071819
The colors are SO vivid and beautiful. The beading is gorgeous and I love the surprise of the fabric/bead combination.

Thanks!

My favorite piece today is the Beyond Texture Pendant by Maku. She is one of my favorite artists on Etsy. Having something of hers to wear would just be "beyond" cool.

Well, aside from being somewhat depressed about all of the incredible items I can't afford -- I did find something above all others that I'd beg, borrow or trade a fortune for. *snicker*

I LOVE 'Poseidon's Deep' http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_list_3&listing_id=5332844 but it's not all blue. So... another item that IS all blue and caught my eye is 'Lisa's Heart' http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_list_20&listing_id=14421259 The bracelet itself is lovely, but the added bonus of a stoneware heart clasp by Lisa Peters makes it irresistible!

Anonymous November 27, 2008 at 11:33 PM  

I really love the "Beaded Round on chain - peacock" bracelet from tqbdesigns.etsy.com found on http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=13623328. It's simply gorgeous!
