A Global Giveaway: Novica.com  

Posted by: Confessions From A Work-At-Home Mom in ,



It's been forever since I've done a giveaway on Confessions From A Working Mom. Several companies have offered, but with the massive changes in my life in the last year, I just didn't feel I had the time to dedicate to promoting a giveaway... but I've made an exception for one company.

Novica -- in conjunction with National Geographic -- is a microlending website that works with artisans in countries across the globe. From accessories to womens scarves, walking sticks to pottery, Novica has it all and it does it with a cause. Their mission is to promote these artists, providing their amazing crafts with a worldwide marketplace for sale.

I'm giving away a $50 gift certificate to Novica.com. What can you get for that price? Well, glad you asked! Not only are the friendly folks at Novica giving one of you $50 to spend on their site, they gave me a $50 gift card as well.
I chose to review this beautiful set of drinking glasses. The six glasses are made by Mexican-based artists Javier and Efrén. Lined with a bright blue hue, they're (appropriately) called "Cobalt." Each glass holds eight ounces of liquid, so they're perfect for my morning orange juice (and they look so pretty holding it!). These glasses are sturdy too, which is something I must have in a cup; I don't like drinking out of flimsy glasses.

Buy It!

The set of six glasses cost $41.49. Factor in the great deal Novica has on shipping right now, and my total was just $44.48.


Win It!

Now it's your turn to go shopping! To enter this giveaway for a $50 gift card to Novica.com, leave a comment telling me how you'd spend the free cash. You can score a second entry by following this blog on Google Friend Connect; just leave a separate comment telling me you do! The giveaway will be open thru Saturday, June 25th at 11am EDT, at which point a winner will be selected using Random.com. Good luck!

I was given a set of six "Cobalt" glasses by Javier and Efren for the purpose of this review and giveaway sponsored by Novica.com, totaling $44.48.

What a neat company! I like a lot of things on the sight, but I think my favorite is the Eggshell Mosaic Bowl. It's gorgeous!

I'm also a follower! :)

I'd buy the dotted blue glass pitcher- it's gorgeous! Perfect for entertaining, or just for displaying flowers on the kitchen table. I love it!

I'd spend it towards the "cobalt patch" blue glass vase by javier and efren. We broke the vase that goes on our bar a couple months ago and this would be a beautiful replacement!

It's so hard to choose! I'd get the peridot & citrine stacking ring set because it has the birthstone colors for me, my mom, and N. :)
