$36 GC to Absolute Jewelry Giveaway! US 12/20

Absolute Jewelery is a really neat company I recently found while Christmas shopping. I love all this new retro recycled jewelery! I am all about recycling and reusing items. This company makes the coolest (per my 12 year old) stuff! I never knew that you could recycle soda pop cans and make jewelery that looks likes this! SUPER COOL!

Let me show you!

A Soda Pop Can who knew! This stuff (as my daughter puts it) ROCKS! I have to say I think it is pretty cool and being an 80's kid,a it talks to the punk teenager in me!

This is the really cool necklace we got to try!

Here is just a little info about the shop owner. We are a Mother and Daughter team. Our love for creating jewelry started as a small hobby consuming our house and has turned into a thriving business still consuming our house! Our recycled soda can jewelry has become a favorite. It was inspired by our own waste products, looking at them and wondering if we could create something beautiful. We love to up cycle! All of our recycled jewelry is designed and created by us.

Light Wisconsin Winter (Photos)

Wisconsin usually gets an average of 46.9" of snow over about a 30 day period through out our winter months. We received about 5" of snow yesterday, which is the largest snow fall we have had this winter. I'm used to getting about double that in 24-48 hours! However, I was more then happy with the 5" opposed to the barely 1-2" we have received previously this winter. Has not snowed anything like it used to when I was younger. 

We did get nice heavy packing snow... nice for playing in the snow and building snow men, but NOT for shoveling. Cade is loving all of this snow and wants to make a snow man, which we will hopefully be able to do tomorrow, today was Jada's school dance so we were unable to go play in the snow. 

I LOVE to take photos of my children, the snow, nature, abandoned barns, farms/farm houses, etc! So I thought I'd share a few of my photos from today with you. I am by no means a photographer. ;)

I will have to try and capture a photo of the birds flying in and out of this tree and share with you all. This tree is in our front yard and since it has snowed, I love standing on the front porch watching and listening to the birds even through the winter and watching them fly in and out of the trees. Especially this tree as I can usually see them peeking their heads out of the tree.

This is a photo looking into the park about a half mile from our home.

 

This is the front of Jada's school as we arrived for her school dance.
