UPDATE: Comments are closed! We have a busy day today, so the drawing will probably be later today. I am changing my method of drawing a name... I will now be using www.random.org to pick names. I had not expected so many entries! Thank you so much!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Hey y'all! It's time for a giveaway! I had so much fun doing this last time.
So, here's how to play:
Leave a comment on THIS POST to be entered in my drawing. You need to comment between now and 8:00 Saturday morning. Only one entry per person please. Tell me which prize or prizes you would like to have your name entered in. If you don't specify, I will assume that you want your name in all of the drawings. Please be sure to leave an email address where I can contact you!
I'm afraid I'm only going to be able to ship to the US or Canada. Sorry Internationals :S
I will let the kiddos draw names sometime on Saturday, November 3rd.
Well, would ya like to see what the prizes are?
First we have "Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini. I read it, enjoyed it, but probably won't read it again. It's in like new condition. I have to warn you... there is a little bit of language in this book. There. You've been warned :)
Next we have a bag made by yours truly. The bottom, the handles and the lining are a tan color. The floral part is a robin egg blue and the roses are in reds and pinks with green and tan stems....
I decided to make some jewelry with a fall-ish flare for the drawing this time. The first one is a bracelet with amber colored beads and charms that look like old fashioned type writer keys that spell "LOVE".

Then we have a bracelet/earring set. The beads are brown and amber colored. The larger circle beads have copper/gold/amber sparkles in the beads. They are very pretty! The picture doesn't quite do it justice...



I may add more items as the week goes on. It just depends on how busy I am! Well, leave me a fabulous comment! Or a boring one. Doesn't matter to me. Just comment away! The link isn't up over at Bloggy Giveaways tonight... it will be in the morning and then you can enter all the fun giveaways!

  162. A fabulous comment, hmm? How about a recipe for a Fabulous Cranberry Margarita?

    Cranberry Margaritas

    1 1/4 cup cranberry juice
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 1/2 cup fresh frozen cranberries, rinsed
    3/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
    3/4 cup tequila
    1/2 cup Grand Marnier
    ice

    Pour half of mixture in the blender and fill rest with ice. Blend. Repeat with second half of mixture. Makes minimum of two blender batches.

    Is that fabulous enough? :)
