Giveaway: Epershand necklace by Isette

Always an admirer of typography-related accessories, I love this "Epershand" necklace by Isette. According to Jennifer Putzier, the artist behind Isette, "Epershand" is the Scots and Scottish English name for ampersand. How about that?

And now you can win your own Epershand necklace! To enter the drawing, leave a comment on this post before midnight CDT on Thursday (10/22/09), and one winner will be selected by a random number generator. Be sure to include a link or way of reaching you. The winner will be announced on Friday in this post and contacted.

Isette is also offering free shipping on all purchases by How About Orange readers through the end of October. Mention "How About Orange" in the "note to seller" field on your order, and your shipping cost will be refunded (including international orders.) To see Isette goodies in person, visit their booth at 1154 LILL Studio's Holiday Market on November 14.

UPDATE: Giveaway is now closed. The winner is commenter #96, Esha. Congratulations!
