Necklace Giveaway | Happy Chinese New Year



In Celebration of Chinese New Year and the upcoming year of the rabbit, I am giving away this wonderful necklace to one of you lovely blog readers. I have fond memories of growing up in Hawaii and going to Chinatown this time of year and watching the dragon dances and listening to crack, and snap of fireworks. I remember the streets literally looked like they turned red, from the sea of red firecrackers paper on the ground. Something about this necklace brings all of that together for me, the hula girl of Hawaii, the Asian cinnabar, firecracker, carved looking beads, the blue and white ceramic beads reminiscent to The Ming Dynasty ceramics.

Winner will be announced on Feb 18th, 2011. If you haven't done so sign up (Right column box) to get my blog delivered to your email in box.

Gung hay fat choy, Alicia!
thanks for telling me about your giveaway. I love the necklace!
I'm a wood dragon, 1964. Which is appropriate because I live in the woods and have been known to be a dragon at times - haha!
