<p><span class="drop_cap">H</span>ello lovelies! I hope you had a positively fabulous holiday weekend and enjoyed time with loved ones! I certainly did. Plus, in two days, I&#8217;ll be celebrating my five-year anniversary with my husband, followed by the new year ~ lots of excitement!</p>
<p>Anyhow, following last year&#8217;s tradition, I wanted to share some of my favorite cocktail rings from Etsy sellers to &#8220;ring in&#8221; 2012! I have a bit of a thing for really striking, unique rings, so I hope you&#8217;ll enjoy.</p>

<p><span class="drop_cap">I</span>f you&#8217;re going eco-friendly this holiday season, skip the gift wrap and consider one of these handmade eco gifts! By shopping local and/or handmade, you&#8217;re already doing your part to reduce your carbon footprint since the items aren&#8217;t produced and then shipped from factories overseas. Be even more green this Christmas with environmentally friendly gifts!</p>
