I'm having a hard time thinking up a single word that best describes me - original, witty, drop dead gorgeous AND humble. Hmmm maybe I should just settle for the word 'divine' on the necklace?
Oh is so want this one, more than anything else!
You know I am a follower - and I would put the word : "brave" to describe me, because above all, goodness, I have to be brave.
'Dreamer'
I would choose 'bold', it sums me up - extroverted, plucky and optimistic.
Monkey.
Only ONE word to describe me? Well then maybe I should choose a word that my friends always use to describe me ... Loyal
Everyone writes good stuff! You guys are good! I would go with errr, forgetful? Scatty? Maybe Just 'idiot'? hahah. Love the blog xx
You guys write such good stuff! Really good words... I would probably go with errr, forgetful? Scatty? Maybe I should just stick with 'idiot'? hahaha. Love the blog xx
mmm, i would just go for my name.. 'desi', but then again, i dont want everyone to know what my name is.
ok, I'll make it 'daisy'. Its my alltime.favourite.flower.EVER.
and when i was younger i wanted to change my name to 'daisy'. for me it describes..dreaming, memories, love, sun, grass, blue skies..all my favourite stuff in one.
:)

YAY!!!
whoa whoa, difficult one. but hell, i'd do anything for one of those gorgeous numbers.
uhm, i think 'wordy' would do it, because i am.
please oh please, give me a wordy birdy necklace?
'Believe' - for the (Disney) princess in all of us. It adds a little magic and sparkle to every day :)
One word??? Well, I think two better: "the best" are my two words!hahahahhaha Thanks for this lovely giveaway!

What one word would you hang around your neck to best describe yourself?
Good question - quite tricky! I thought about 'bold' (snap Amanda), 'chatty', and possibly 'dreamer' (snap Aligno) as I do tend to get lost in my head, my thoughts and my dreams! 'Strength' would also work but finally I've settled on 'optimist' because through everything I am always positive!
My word would be 'cheeky'. I think it's self-explanatory. ; )
My word would be 'cheeky'. I think it's self-explanatory. ; )
I love this idea! After much thought I've decided to stick with my name because I cannot find any other word that describes me fully.
Oh, and I'm a follower via google reader.
Good luck everyone!
Beautiful!
I would get 'Honest' - I try to be as much as I possibly can and I think it is a nice reminder to have hanging there.
thats so great
I am a follower already shaim
sh.11175@yahoo.com
well its hard to describe my self that's such a hard question .I called my the most honest one in this world when i saw this giveaway and chose( Loyal)it the decision
Tweet about it here
http://twitter.com/shaimapassion/status/10264521221
If I had to choose right this moment it would have to be 'hungry', or maybe 'tired'. But l'd love to have my name, 'Rosalie'
‘Serendipity’ (like the way the word sounds)It means “accidentally stumble upon something fortunate” I love accidentally finding something awesome when you weren’t looking for it at all (like the day I met the boyfriend)
Or ‘&Stuff’ cause I must use this a 100 times a day. Whenever I don't know how to end a sentence I go ...and stuff. (Hence my blog name)
Oops, you said just one word right...
Hmmmm... I would put my name "Beta" but if it would be some other word, it would be "Decent" i guess.
I would have 'Green' :) what a lovely giveaway!

Name necklace Status:
http://twitter.com/Elle_dt
I would have the word 'Silly', because I think it pretty much covers my approach to life :) Cant take yourself too seriously!
Just one? Oh, all right. I'd go with 'quirky', or no, maybe 'original' (snap Sid) or 'dreamy'...the boyfriend just shouted 'elegant' at me (so he just got some brownie points :)...
http://friendswithjenny.blogspot.com/2010/03/name-necklace-giveaway.html
and tweeted @jenjamjar
mine would say love
i'm a follower and a subscriber
Well, I'm not sure I would hang one around my neck, but if I did win then I'd give it to my fiance and would need to decide on what to write for her.
I guess, if I was pressed for an answer, I would go for something like "trust" :)
just one: puppy. It's what my boyfriend calls me, and it makes me try to hold onto a puppy way of looking at life – enthusiastic, wide-eyed, excitable, loving, playful...
DEMANDOR!
because that's my nickname. no idea what they're on about though. hehe.
i think maybe i would use the word truth or love
or maybe my husbands name
or my real name :)
oooh decisions :)
:) i am a follower :) enter me !!!
Betty
Well,,,,, When I win this, I know that there is only one place where it would look just perfect. A Beautiful Necklace, for my Beautiful Daughter. So the Word would have to be.......Sunshine..... Or Star.... Or River..... Or Ocean.... not sure - something natural, something beautiful, something breathtaking.... Just like my Daughter
Wow, those necklaces are absolutely gorgeous, I think it'd make any word look lovely. If I won I'd definitely get my name ... or maybe I should get Gladtobeagirl, which definitely describes me ;) Haha!
http://twitter.com/philly_girl/status/10266725462
(I think if I don't win I may just have to order myself one anyway!)
Im going to be different so my one word would be 'Random' but would never want that on a necklace.
Never ever found anything with my name on it, shops only have English names:-(
http://twitter.com/leilabadsha
I'd say "hope"... i'll tweet this :)
one word: fabulous!
retweeted it too
One word, that describes all others - Indigogirl. I have different moods, and different ways of doing things. I am me and no one can change that, so they better just like it ;) so therefore I am an Indigogirl
What one word would you hang around your neck to best describe yourself?
FIESTY.
I love this giveaway.
I'd probably get "hope", "hopeful"or "rare", which are all actually definitions of my name :)
http://twitter.com/Nadgia/status/10269116138
I'd choose 'Dalliance,' as it means 'brief love affair,' and i have a brief love affair with at least 10 things a day.
xxx
I am already a follower.
Ohhh...the choice of a word...hard one....maybe "grace" because that is what I live by...or "bokkie" because that is what I call every one I love.
"freespirit"
I follow and love your blog!
Being a photographer, I wanted to find a word about light, like "glow" or "shine", but I also love laughter, so maybe I'll just get "smile" on the necklace.
I'm a follower for sure!
one word - tough for me to think of -- maybe scatterbrained? haha seriously i might put divine - since that is a meaning of my name.
The necklace would be for my girlfriend and would say "Headonist" (with intentional sic)
Seeing as I'm pregnant now with PlusOne, and I'm hoping she's a girl, I would put her name* on it, as a special Welcome To The World gift. I am sentimental like that, and would keep the necklace for her forever and ever until she is old enough to wear it :D
*Name has been decided, but being kept quiet for now...
I would love the word "Mom", it's simply ideal! Thanks for the giveaway. I'm a subscriber.
yumihamano at gmail dot com
Oh I don't know I have always just really loved the word possibility
I'm a happy follower of your blog!! I'd do my name! I like the lil birdie at the end of these!! beautiful! Please count me in!! =)
hmmm have thought about this one long and hard! and i think the best word to describe me would be: BLONDIE! will be retweeting shortly too!
great give away! i love anything with a name or monogram so I hope i win! i think that best word that describes me is friend. I really care about my relationships (friends, bf, family) and make a point of showing and expressing my appreciation of that person and how much i love/care about them.
I follow you. One word that would hang around my neck would be bookworm or reader. :)

lauren51990 AT aol DOT com
I would probably pick "Dream"
I'm the big dreamer in my family, there are so many things I want to do, and many places to travel... right now I can only hope and dream it can happen to me.
Oh wow! Even if i am a boy, i know i still have the right to own a gorgeous necklace like this. =D And if it happens, the word i wanted is "simple". Coz it's me. I am a simple guy who love to have more friends. =D
Jules

The Brown Mestizo
Since someone already used "serendipity" which is my favourite word, I have to think of something new!
I would say the next word I would use would be "gregarious", because it means "fond of the company of others: sociable". That's me, the social butterfly.
Great feedback for this giveaway, here goes my feeble attempt at an entry.
I'd either choose the word "blessed" or simply use my second name, Hanifa, meaning "true believer" in Arabic.
I've been a follower since my blogger days already, but I'll tweet and possibly blog about the giveaway a little later on too.
I blogged (http://essenceofcapetown.co.za/archives/509) and tweeted http://twitter.com/HanifaCC :)
trust...no one does it, everyone expects it
SASSY
Ah these necklaces are STUNNING! :) My word would probably be "Joy".
Competition RT here: https://twitter.com/lindseyberry
hmmm. I think I would probably want it to say my name... Jaclyn.
But if I had to pick one work to describe myself... I might use either Artsy or Mommy. Either is good.
this is the best giveaway. other than Anna, i would say Sassy... my family has always called me sassy pants lol.
I think my family and friends would say Chatterbox - no thanks.
I love the word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious but that would surely give me neckache
As a sign of my total lack of decisiveness and a wish to be mysterious I would choose 'Mmmm?'
I tweeted
http://twitter.com/EVA_n_essence/status/10317034102
Would have to choose Grace! such a beautiful word, with an even more beautiful meaning! <3
"Enigmatic"
I'm a bit ambiguous, but recently decided to embrace this contradiction that is myself.
Simple: I would choose "French". Doesn't it say it all?? ;)
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, haha.
Or 'crazy'. ;-)
So divine! Not sure what I would get, not my name, I dont want random strangers knowing it, maybe the word 'Love' or 'Family'? I would definitely get the little birdie though!
Blog entry: http://gnatj.com/2010/03/11/a-brazen-competition/
I am a subscriber and the one word that I would hang around my neck is: Believer.
I have also blogged about this here:
Blog entry: http://blackhuff.wordpress.com/2010/03/12/being-brazen-competition/
A single word? Hm... perhaps 'dreamer' would do. Creative doesn't quite look right, and neither do some other words I can think of. maybe 'curiouser' xD Or crafty.
I'm a follower through google connect.
I would probably get my soon to be born daughter's name on it.
I blogged about this! http://birdboxe.livejournal.com/8619.html
hmmmm...sassy? Lover? Sassy Lover...?
what a great comp..love the necklace...i subscribed, thanks!
V x
The best word to describe me... "hellcat". It's also the name of my vintage shop. ;)
clogzilla(at)yahoo(dot)com
Wow, to think about one word is difficult. But I think I would choose either my name, "Love" or "honesty". X... :)
Whisper
It's my tattoo as well ... a reminder to follow my intuition... it is something that is soft and gentle and whispers from the depths of your soul
My word would be 'frill'
What a lovely giveaway!
I'd go for "hope"...to remind me to have it on my down-days :)
Heartfelt. (I know it's not technically a describing word, but it's what my loved ones say I am; maybe as a result of- or in spite of- the obstacles that have needed kicking in the butt).
Oh my google, so funny that I found this competition just after posting about these super cool necklaces!! http://cardiganstreets.blogspot.com/2010/03/kim-gray-brings-goods.html
Yipee so excited! The word I would choose is "hope" because I live life fiercely optimistic, filling my life and others with as much love, sunshine and cupcakes as possible. Here's to being fiercely optimistic about this competition! :D
And blogged about!

Just to add in an extra entry, I tweeted again:
http://twitter.com/Nadgia/status/10505430292
My word would be "me".. Cos that's who I am :)
Tweet: http://twitter.com/yellowllama/status/10506302963
Oh wow.. been thinking of getting a name necklace now for a few weeks..
:-) :-)
Its very tough to choose just one word to describe oneself... But If I must then perhaps "plucky" <--an old nickname given to me by some friends a few years ago;-)
I am your follower. I would choose my own name Lubica (with bird). Thanks

mine shud be crazy haha. count me in :)
Aaaaah! That would be so rad. Consider me IN!
Um... me in one word: enigma
I ordered mine immediatly after your first post about them, but am surely not going to let the chance by to have another necklace!
As I already have my name, I would probably go for 'faith' as it's inspiring and motivational to me.
Blogged about it too: http://rockstarwinemaker.blogspot.com/2010/03/whirl-wind-wrap-up.html
i'm from germany, so my english isn't very well i guess (: i hope you can understand me anyway (:
i posted about your giveaway and this is the link to it: http://not-like-everyone.blogspot.com/2010/03/34-gewinnspiele-entdeckt-durch-zufall.html
the answer to your question, which word i would hang around my neck which describes me the best would probably be: 'truth'
why 'truth'? Because i hate lies and liars and i'm always sharing my own opinion - doesn't matter if the other ones share it or if they don't. i'm almost always telling the truth, so, i guess 'truth' would be the best word.
mm I think my world would be: Sueños
In spanish^^

Hmmm, only one word...I would have to go with Fly, because I love to spread my wings and fly. And the little bird on the end would be so cute :)

monkeychild92(at)gmail(dot)com
Wow this is hard =D I would use the word: hope.
Thanks a lot for the chance.
"Escapist" describes me perfectly it it's good and bad sided :)
But rather (if I happened to win *hoping hard*) I'd go just with my shorter name "Katja"

I think "blurhead" would be the best word for me but LOL... that would make a really bad pendant! So, I'll settle for "Jayne" cos it means "God is gracious". Nope, not about me but God has been really gracious to me.
Love,
jayne.lee[at]yahoo.com.au
one word...tough! I liked:
bold (already taken!)
fearless (i need to be, am not quite yet)
alluring

Really cute necklace and giveaway! ;)
But my name is Patricia ;P
I'd choose the word "inspired" then when other people see it, they'd also feel inspired! :)
I follow on Google reader and the best word to describe me nowadays would be my Twitter name @justcuzz. If I win by all means please include the little bird on the end!

And oh, "Dreamer' sounds good, too.
Hmm, mine would simply say my name - "Patricia"
because i can't think of 1 word that describes me, &even though i could get something like "love" or "dream" which would actually be very cute, it's a little generic and i think going with my name..well it's my name and so it just fits (:
Ooh, ooh...i got the perfect one!
"Invictus". It means 'undefeated' in Latin...and the poem itself is just everything I want to be.
I'm a new follower =)
For me, that one word would be... Cassiopeia.
the word i'd like to be on the necklace is dew. I retweet this contest (helloitscris on twitter).

The word that would best describe me is the nickname I've had for a couple years now, which is SAUCY. I put my own twist to it by using my own adjectives which are the three F's: Fashionable, Fab & Fierce! I believe this word represents me pretty well. I know some people associate the word "saucy" w/ negative meanings, but to me it's positive.
Thanks so much for the chance!

Tough question! I know I want a necklace that reads concrete. I make beautiful concrete for a living and I think it describes me too because I'm 'a what you see is what you get' sort of lady.
Is that a stretch? Anyway, thanks for all of the hard work that goes into your gorgeous blog!
I think maybe Believe, Life, Dream, Love or real name??
Sigh. Really hard question!
