  9. Beautiful post, darling! I LOOOOOOOVE bracelets! More than any other jewellery, I think. Funnily enough, I was browsing this etsy shop today... Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the giveaway and the name! If I won I'd go for the spring daffodils bracelet. The colours are simply magical and I feel so happy by looking at it. Will keep fingers crossed... So hope I can win this one.

    Have a great day!
