Sounds wonderful!
Very cute bracelet! Something about me ... my dh will throw anything and everything away so I go behind him and rescue things that can be put into the recycling bins.
What a lovely bracelet.
Something to share-right now the sun is shining, the birds are singing, and my cat is plotting her escape to a life in the wild. To bad she forgets about that little thing called a screen-oops, plans foiled!
maybe i can be your lucky winner twice!
finally got around to adding my new friends (you!) from last contest to my reader!
Clowns don't make me cry, but I'm a sucker for the elephant rides... I pay the exorbitant fee EVERY TIME. Thanks for the giveaway!

We stopped going to the "local" circus when I was little; my parents didn't like the way the owners were treating the animals.
Does that count? :-P

Okay, here goes -- the last time I remember going to the circus (about age 12) the line to the restroom was too long and I ended up wetting myself. Misery. My parents would leave and take me home -- made me tie a jacket around my waist and stay -- even greater misery. I have never taken my kids to the circus.
Fun giveaway! Count me!
Ok, about me. I'm on a serious go green rampage. We're getting rid of all BPA plastics, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
This bracelet send a great message!
this is beautiful! I was a clown for Halloween once, when I was a kid. Now I look back at the photos, and it is a little scary!
What a great giveaway! I'm a stay at home mom and love it......all 11+ years so far. :)
Great Blog and giveaway!!!! Thanks!

Something about me? I like to win things. Will that incur the random number generators favor? ;)
A couple of years ago I did a presentation on the Hartford Circus Fire of 1944... it's a pretty amazing story, but not for the faint of heart.

What a cute blog!
My oldest son (29) is still afraid of clowns! I blame it on the circus when he was very young.
The bracelet is adorable.
My dad took us to the circus when we were kids and I don't remember exactly what happened, but I've never been interested in going again. Until I had my daughter. we take her to the Big Apple Circus every year and we love it - its so small and cozy, you can see and hear everything, and the bigges animal is a horse.
You are so hilarious! "What do I gotta do to put you in this new car today?" ROFL!!
Okay, I was so boy crazy, even when I was little, that the one memory I have from the one and only time I went to the circus, was scoping out the cute boy that was sitting in my row. :)
I would love to have this bracelet because my kids drive me insane and husband is a lunatic! How's that??? Or- how about just sending me the sign about the unattended children? I would LOVE to have that too!!!
Thanks for considering me!

Hummm - graduated HS at 16, married at 17, still married now for 36 years... and happily. Thankfully was not sold to the circus altho mom used to always say that I could be replaced (never figured out how tho!)
Well....I was born in Mt. Vernon, Illinois on a warm rainy January morning in 1975. Just kidding! I just started blogging 18 months ago, but I just started reading and commenting on other people's 2 months ago. I still don't understand all of the lingo or exactly what all I'm doing...but these bloggy giveaways are addictive, I can tell you that. Thanks for the jewelry giveaway.
I have never liked clowns. :( But I DO like this bracelet!
Love the bracelet.
here's a joke for you....
A skeleton walks into a bar and asks for a beer and a towel.
I love the picture on your blog of the cutie with the alligator, or is it a crocodile?
I actually like clowns, and so does my daughter. She has a clown doll collection that she's been building on since she was 3. I wouldn't ever want to be a clown, but I do like looking at them.
Nice bracelet, hope I win! Come on over to my blog and enter my giveaway,too!
I like the circus, even the clowns! My dd went with some friends of ours and she was freaked by the clowns big shoes, until she got home and we explained to her that they did it on purpose to be funny. Way over her head.
I am linking to you in the jewelry category on my insane attempt to put the bloggy giveaways into categories on my blog qtpies7-goodstuff.blogspot.com blog.
Count me in!!! :)

I'm a first year high school English teacher in the city system of my hometown. Everyone thinks I'm nuts, even me sometimes, but the first year is almost over, and I survived! My salary is pitiful, but the benefits make up for it. I would really love to win this giveaway because I DESERVE a gift! Thanks!
THAT is a very cool bracelet. I would like to own it! :)
I didn't have to go to the circus to cry. My older brother use to take a ronald mcdonald doll and would stick it in my face when I was little. I would cry over and over again. My mom would come running and ask what was wrong and he would say nothing. I love the bracelet it is simply beautiful and defiantly my style!
samsakara@twcny.rr.com
Lol one time I went to the circus with my family and there was a woman behind us with three young children. I was worried that maybe they would cry too much and ruin the experience, however I should have worried about the mother. Each time the audience clapped, she would go 'YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!' super loudly. Lol very annoying. Everyone in the family still remembers :)
I'd love this for one of my daughters!
About me.. I have five daughters and one son. I own two doves, a dog and I'm single!!!
My life is never dull
Hi, My youngest son is terrified of clowns. When he was younger, his older brother and a friend were watching Stephen King's It. He walked through to the toy room and saw a scene of a clown that wasn't pleasant! To this day, they frighten him Please enter me in your drawing for that beautiful bracelet. It is the look I like to wear. Thanks,Cindi

I really like this bracelet. I have to ask, is the gator in your header real? I'm certain it isn't, but I've got to know. I just read this crazy news article today about a woman who found an 8 foot gator in her kitchen and called 911 so someone could come remove it.
I've never been to the circus- or a gator farm...
Never take an under 5 to the circus I learnt the hard way. They can get scared easy! Especially of the lions but even the clowns scared mine till she was older.
I have always been afraid of clowns, but I have no funny story except this one. A couple of years ago me, my husband, my sister and one of our friends went to the circus with no kids. It looked pretty funny 4 adults at the circus with no kids, but we had fun
Never been to the circus!
But one time when I was doing my student teaching, I accidentally left my briefcase (with a lock) in the teacher's lounge.
The principal called in the bomb squad and they blew up the locks on the brief case. I got the remains of the case.
Well it didn't happen to me but when we went to the circus when we were little my brother fell through the stands and landed on the hay below thankfully the animals that were traveling under had already passed. katie_mmartin(at) yahoo [dot] com
Okay, here's my favorite joke. (It was made up by a friend of mine when we were in 7th grade, so I apologize in advance. It's not even a good joke!)
Two ducks were sitting in a bathtub. One duck said to the other duck.... {pause} "Pass me the typewriter!"Buh-dum-dum.
Yeah, seriously, I'm no good at jokes. But I'd love to wear that pretty bracelet! :)

I was scared to death of clowns when I was little, yet I had imaginary clown friends, lol.
I really like this! We took our kids to the circus last year and they loved it! They even had little dogs that performed tricks!
Pretty bracelet! I am 41 and I have had 2 children, a partial pancreadectomy and full spleenectomy! Um, you asked for it!
I am the mother of 6 children, 2 sons-in-law, 2 grand daughters, one WONDERFUL husband. And love my life. Thanks for the giveaway, Kathy
Love this bracelet, count me in =)

In honor of Earth Day, my daughter's daycare has been doing a week long lesson on recycling, litter and all things Earth friendly.
One of the things they're teaching them is a "litter" song that goes something like "when you see a piece of litter, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up. When you see a piece of litter, pick it up!" (to the tune of London Bridge).
Unfortunately, I've been unable to convince my three year old that the word is litter and NOT glitter.
"When you see a piece of glitter, pick it up..." Makes way more sense to her!
Stop by my blog and check out my contest for an Amazon gc and free books! http://nicemommy-evileditor.com/blog
I love the bracelet. I tried to take my daughter to the circus last year, but we only stayed as long as the cotton candy lasted-20 minutes. Oh well maybe next year.
Wow... clowns, huh? The only time we've taken our kids to the circus, we came back sans our camera--not entirely clear if we lost it or someone liberated it from us. The kids seemed to enjoy it, but the youngest fell asleep for most of it ;)
Definitely a lovely bracelet! Hope you're having a great week!

my comment would be..man there are a lot of squirrels around here. Okay just had to get that out. I've been thinking that since we moved to this place in Jan! LOL...anyways cute bracelet great giveaway thanks
Thats a cute bracelet. I remember the last time i went to the circus that my kids were more fascinated with the pooping elephants than anything else. fun stuff.
When I was little I went to The Ringling Bros 3 ring circus and I remember being so excited about the little clown car. I made a clown car for my dolls when I got home.
Cool bracelet! The circus was just in town where I live, and it was a lot of fun!

Lovely bracelet. I am not much of a joke teller. I have always been scared of clowns. The poltergist movie did me in.
