This just shows how a team pulls together to try and help someone in need.

Darnell is a gorgeous young man and his family desperately need our help to cover mounting medical bills.

Please check my previous post for full details on Darnell http://beadsme-mandyharvey.blogspot.com/2008/08/pull-together-to-help-someone-darnell.html

I would like to thank evryone for the donations so far, please keep them coming.

This treasury shows items that have been created by hand which when sold the proceeds will be given to Darnells family. To find the items made for Darnell and his family got to Etsy and search Darnell.

JET Is Hosting a Treasure Hunt

The Jewelry on Etsy Street Team (JET) is getting ready for their next fabulous jewelry give away.
The "Lucky" winners will receive a stunning, handmade piece of jewelry from a member of the team. And, you don't even have to be Irish to win!
...you just follow the clues leading through our member's shops until you find our...

POT 'O GOLD
The contest begins Friday, March 14th at noon. So, mark the date and get ready for a fun-filled hunt.
What's in the pot you ask????
How about we let our friend the leprechaun
tell you...

"Hey there etsy lovers...how about I make a big POT of corned beef and cabbage???? Heh Heh...don't think many of you would search for that in our contest. The truth is...maybe I will brew a batch of green beer in the POT. No...you won't search for that either. I guess I'll put a beautiful piece of jewelry in the POT for you to find. Ah, now you'll play eh???
OK, take a look in the JET TEAM Shop and you will see examples of the beautiful artisan treasures created by our members.
I'll tell you a little secret, (don't tell anyone), the team is also going to have "Instant Winners" throughout the contest. But, you have to keep checking the contest promo thread to win those prizes!! So...I'll see you at the hunt."Keep your eyes open for our contest thread in the Etsy Forums on March 14th at noon. It will be in the Promotions section. All the hunt rules will be posted there.
Don't forget.....Contest begins at noon on March 14, 2008. (etsy time)
