Hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving, and that you got some good bargains today if Black Friday is your thing. After so many years in retail, one of the things I'm always thankful for on Thanksgiving is I don't have to go anywhere near a mall today!
I clicked on my blog yesterday and saw that I now have 100 followers! When I started this blog four months ago, I had to bribe people to follow me--now I have 100 followers and I didn't even have to pay you!! Actually I have more than 100 if you count in those of you who have subscribed by email to the blog, but for some stupid reason Blogger won't let me access that to find out how many of you there are. I know 100 may not seem like much to some of you bloggers who have thousands of followers, but it's a big deal for me since I'm still fairly new to blogland.
So to thank-you all for reading my blog, I going to do a giveaway! You can win not 1 ... not 2 ... but 3 prizes!
Third prize will be $20 to spend on anything in my Etsy store:
Second prize will be a copy of Grace Bonney's book Design Sponge at Home.
Since you're reading a decorating/diy blog you probably already know about her, but in the slim chance you don't, Grace Bonney is one of the pioneers in the genre, and Design Sponge is now the most popular single-site design blog in the country. Her book includes home tours and diy projects. You'll love it!
And, drum roll please ... First prize is a $50 gift certificate to Michaels--just in time for your holiday projects!
All you have to do for a chance to win is to be a follower and leave a comment. That's it! For a second chance to win, refer a friend to follow the site and leave a comment letting me know. The winners will be chosen at random from the comments next Friday (December 2nd). So be sure you either have email info on your profile so I can contact you, or check back here next Friday to see if you've won.
Good luck, and thank-you again for taking the time to read my blog, and the supportive comments you all have been giving me!
Hi Deborah!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I've been here too, in blog land, for quite a while, but got serious about blogging four or five months ago. I feel blessed to finally hit the 20 mark!!! So, congratulations on reaching 100!
Boy, to win any of your prizes would be grand! But, just helping to celebrate with you is fun!
Continued blessings,
Donna
