Beyond the Rockz - Jewelry Giveaway

Beyond the Rockz is having a giveaway on their fanpage of facebook.

Lots of very simple yet stunning jewelry pieces that call to you (or at least they do me)! My favorite is their pink scarab earrings.



EGCG - Team Treasure Hunt

Ahoy there mateys!

Alright, all corny pirate talk aside, there's a treasure hunt going on right now with a few of the EGCG (Etsy Green & Clean Guild) team members. Jadewicks has taken part in this hunt.

Here's how to participate:

Browse through the list of EGCG shops below and search their listings for the hidden treasure chest graphic. When you find it, you may take advantage of that seller's special offer listed in their shop announcement and/or the product listing where the graphic was hidden. The promotion runs from Friday, June 26 at 12:00 pm EST to Sunday, June 28 at 11:59pm midnight EST.

And don't forget about the extra bonus! For each purchase you make from one of the participating EGCG shops shown below, you will be given one entry into a drawing to win a $15 gift certificate to the participating shop of your choice. Winner will be drawn and announced on Monday June 29th. **Please include the code word “treasure” in the Notes to Seller at checkout so we can count your purchase as an entry**



Arrrrr, Cap'n Clean commands you to "stay clean and be moisturized!"

Love Stack soaps and continuing sale

Hello hello!

We've recently updated our Etsy site with some new heart shaped soaps. These things are so cute! There are three to one package and they're all a different size. What a great way to try 3 scents at a time as well! Hop on over to our store to see those as well as take a peek at what we've got left of our clearing out sale. Once those are gone - they're gone. We may bring back some of the fragrances, but they'll be reinvented. Stay tuned. ;)

CPSIA - who does it affect?


While Jadewicks does not focus on children's items, we've been carefully watching what has been going on with the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA). What started as a means to make sure our children are safe from harmful products and toys is venturing into a complete obliteration of the small business and their owners. Not only will this affect smaller businesses, but larger businesses that focus on used goods (Goodwill, Salvation Army, etc).

There are many companies that are not exempt from the new law. What will happen to these stores that cannot afford the testing? What will happen to the items?

Mr. Walter Olson of Forbes.com has a really well written blurb on this issue. Take a read HERE.
