Bloggy Carnival Giveaway Day 3- Part 1: Fused Glass Pendants

Wednesday, January 28, 2009

***CLOSED*** My addiction to Twitter gets stronger every day. I'm following (and being followed) by some really great people. I got to meet a follower for the first time on Monday, and I just connected with a woman who lives near me and will be helping me train for the breast cancer walk. I take back everything I said about Twitter being useless and pointless!

The first of today's giveaways comes from one of my followers. I'm not sure what I Tweeted to get Kevin's attention but I'm so glad I did. His Etsy shop, KanYoFuse, is full of beautiful pendants made of glass, which is one of my favorite materials to wear. Kevin has generously offered pendants to THREE winners!



Ooh, ahhh! I love these and hate that they will not be adorning my neck (top to bottom they are named Champagne Hearts on Shimmering Purple, Be Mine Flowers and Lovesick Dragonflies).

To enter
(two entries possible):
1. Go to the KanYoFuse shop to see the other items Kevin offers.


2. Come back here and leave a comment on this post and tell me what other item you'd buy - required. (You can also tell me which of the three you'd like most - optional)

3. For an extra entry (not required), send out a Tweet about this contest and come back to this post with the link to your Tweet. Here's the shortened link to this post:

4. I MUST have a way to get in touch with you! NoReply@Blogger will not send you a response. I will have to delete comments with no contact info.You can leave your email address in the myemail [at] thisaddress [dot] com format to prevent spam.

7. Winners will have until Monday, 2/2 to respond or a new winner will be chosen.

8. You don't need a blog to win, but I MUST have a way to contact you. US residents only (sorry!)

Bloggy Giveaway Day 5

Thursday, July 31, 2008

**COMMENTS NOW CLOSED*** TGIF! As much fun as this has been, it will be good to get back to normal. I want to thank everyone who has entered throughout the week. I had a goal in mind of how many comments I wanted to have to feel that this was a success. Happy to say I think I will reach (and hopefully pass) that goal.

Some of you are now following me on Twitter and a few have subscribed to the feed. That means a lot to me. Because you did so without being asked.

I realize gaining new readers is one of (if not THE) point of this carnival.
However, I decided not to make subscribing to my feed a condition of entry. I know you can unsubscribe at any time.

But I wanted people to subscribe because they like what I'm doing here, not because they were forced to. So thank you again. I so, so appreciate it!

I know there are contests galore to be entered, but if you have a moment, look through the archives and get to know me. Check out my reading list or my favorite posts (Mozilla users scroll to the bottom). I'd love to see you back here again.

OK, I'm off the soapbox. Back to the giveaway. The last prize is another glass pendant from the talented Jeanne Lee of Trinity Treasures. This one is brown and gold with flecks of green on a brown silk cord. You have no idea how it will pain me to give this up!

To enter:
1. Go to the Trinity Treasures store to see Jeanne's other items (click on 'go to store,' top left).

2. Come back here and leave a comment on this post and tell me what other piece you'd buy - required. (If you entered the first contest, just let me know in the comment)

3. I MUST have a way to get in touch with you! NoReply@Blogger will not send you a response. I will have to delete comments with no contact info.

4. Comments will close tonight, August 1st at 11:59pm CA time.

5. I will use random.org to draw the winner and post the results/notify winner via email and in a "Winners" post on Saturday 8/2.

6. You don't need a blog to win, but I MUST have a way to contact you. US residents only (sorry!)

*Enter my first pendant giveaway here, the Chick Lit giveaway here, the re-usable totes and Trader Joe's GC here and the Starbucks/Barnes and Noble GC's here. (not required, but why wouldn't you?!)

Thank you! Good luck to all my entrants. There's still time to enter some of the 1,000+ contests at Bloggy Giveaway central. Have a good weekend!

It's Carnival Time! Giveaway Day 1

Monday, July 28, 2008

***COMMENTS NOW CLOSED*** Yeah! It's that time again. Time for late nights, ignoring the housework and finding new blogs. If you're here for the first time, welcome and thank you for coming! I hope to see you again.

I really enjoyed last year's carnival and wanted to do something special for this one. I am putting the finishing touches on my prizes and should be giving away a new item each day so please check back.

For my first giveaway, I have a beautiful handmade glass pendant from Jeanne Lee at Trinity Treasures. I adore fused glass jewelry and bought two of her pendants as my Mother's Day present to myself.
Jeanne is so sweet and I was so happy she agreed to give me pendants (notice the plural, hint, hint) for the carnival. She is local to San Diego and I always like to support local artists. But it's going to be really hard for me to give them up!

My camera does not do this necklace justice. It's several shades of green with an almost teal sparkle to it on a brown silk cord. Gorgeous!

To enter:
1. Go to the Trinity Treasures store to see Jeanne's other items (click on 'go to store,' top left).

2. Come back here and leave a comment on this post and tell me what other piece you'd buy - required. Simple! (You can thank me later)
3. I MUST have a way to get in touch with you! NoReply@Blogger will not send you a response. I will have to delete comments with no contact info.

4. Comments will close on Friday, August 1st at 11:59pm CA time.

5. I will use random.org to draw the winner and post the results/notify winner via email and in a "Winners" post on Saturday 8/2.

6. You don't need a blog to win, but I MUST have a way to contact you. US residents only (sorry!)

*Enter my Chick Lit giveaway here, the re-usable totes here , the Starbucks/Barnes and Noble here and the second pendant here. (Not required, but more free stuff!)

Thanks again for coming! Be sure to check out the Bloggy Carnival Giveaway hub for more great prizes. Last quarter there were more than 900 giveaways. Have fun!
