Here's Your Chance!

Here it is, your one and only to get something hand made by me! See that Pay It Forward widget over there on the right? I've joined Bonnie over at Calamity Jane's Cottage in this little pass it on game. Here's how it works (yes I'm copying it from Bonnie cause why retype if you don't have to!):

It’s based of the concept of the movie “Pay it Forward” where acts or deeds of kindness are done without expecting something in return, just passing it on, with hope that the recipients of the acts of kindness pass it on. So here’s how it works. I will make and send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment to this post on the blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I do not know what that gift will be yet, and it won’t be sent this month, probably not next month, but it will be sent (within 6 months) and that’s a promise! What YOU have to do in return, then, is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog.

I've actually done this Pay It Forward exchange before and enjoyed it so much that I wanted to do it again. It's really fun to make something for someone else for no particular reason except that I want to. I have absolutely no idea right now what I'm going to make but I promise it won't be home baked because you know how I am about cooking - not so good. It will definitely be something stitched and you will definitely get it sooner rather than later. Bonnie said within 6 months but I'll go her one better and say within 3 months. :)

Now remember you have to be in the first three that sign up to do this (you can comment without signing up!) and you have to pass it on. Be sure I have your e-mail or your blog address so I can get in touch with you.

Now when I say go ya'll can fight over me. Go!

Pay It Forward and Other Stuff

Julie at Through the Barn Door, a new blogging acquaintence, is participating in a blogging exchange - Pay It Forward. I've decided to join with her and others in this project which is based on the Movie "Pay It Forward." This exchange focuses on acts or deeds of kindness being done without expecting something in return, just passing it on, with hope that the recipients of the acts of kindness perform their own acts of kindness. So here's how it works. I will make and send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment to this post on my blog requesting to join this Pay It Forward exchange. I don't know right now what the gift will be, and it probably won't be this month but it will be some time this summer, I promise. :) If you are one of the three, what YOU have to do in return is to pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog. So, anybody want to join in?

And in answer to questions/polls on former posts:
BQ#1 - it is an oak leaf hydrangea according to the e-mails and posts I got
BQ#2 - no one seems to be having this problem except me
BQ#3 - everyone seems to be having this problem, just like me
and Tile won hands down over the blue formica! Thanks friends for the helping hand with that issue. I'll let you know if I convince my husband. :)
