Giveaway: Dragon Vein Agate Necklace by Lavender Rabbit

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to the randomly chosen 43rd commenter, Kathy Detweiler!

Donna of Lavender Rabbit is offering one lucky damsel the opportunity to take this dragon vein agate necklace captive. Dark purple veins run deep through the gorgeous brown agate bead. The unique stone clutches onto an antiqued silver-plated steel circle, wrapped by a gunmetal chain that closes with a lobster claw clasp.

The Lavender Rabbit shop is hopping with herds of handmade jewelry, from earrings featuring flowers and cute creatures to wraparound beaded cuff bracelets. Donna crafts her designs in her den where her adorable bunnies nose-bonk her ankles. At first, she just made jewelry for herself - but when they ran out of room, her husband started selling it at his work. Now that the demand is so high, her husband helps and works on his own jewelry creations, too.
