Jewelry Giveaway: Butterfly Bracelet by Athenianaire

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over. Congratulations to Evelyn Chuter for submitting the randomly-chosen 657th entry.


I may have gotten sunburnt today, but the unseasonably warm weather won't last forever! Soon there won't be any butterflies to be found, unless you're the lucky one to win the beautiful butterfly bracelet above from Rebecca of Winged Art by Athenianaire. The double-sided bracelet features two bold species in a .75" diameter circle of silver-coated rhodium to match a wide range of outfits. The shown orange, yellow and black side is a Delias butterfly, and the other side is a Morpho Didius, known for its highly reflective deep blue wings.

The lepidopterans Rebecca uses to create her real butterfly jewelry are bred on farms all over the globe, including countries of southeast Asia, the south pacific, south and central America. The rearing of these insects for education, art, inspiration and export help fund organizations dedicated to protecting the unique environments of the world. After natural death, specimens are sold to generate some of the financial resources required to maintain conserved land. When cold weather does settle over your town, just daydream about the butterflies fluttering thousands of miles away that Rebecca and her customers helped to live!
