my five-hundred and sixtieth post!!!!!
and what's so special about that? first of all, it's because i want to tell you how excited i am about the new blog design diana at custom blog designs is putting together just for me!!
and secondly, it's because this is the post where i announce my giveaway for my six-hundredth post!!!!!
ive been watching and reading and lurking and seeing how much fun the many giveaways are on various blogs...i've even managed to WIN a couple. and so i wanted to join in the fun and here's what i'd like to give away, on my 600th post, in celebration of the brand new look my blog is going to have...
a basket of 13 nurturing things i consider essential for making it through the long dark winter. these things will include some of my personally favorite hand- and homemade type things, from some of my dear friends who etsy (like rose) as well as other witchy women of my acquaintance.
if you'd like to play along, gentle reader, here's what you do -
the winner will be selected by random drawing. every time you leave me a comment you, you get an entry. if you're already a follower, you get two additional entries - if you become a follower, you get an extra one. you get an additional entry for every comment you leave me between now and post 599. if you link to this and mention this giveaway on your blog, you get three additional entries. if you send me someone new who leaves a comment, you get one additional entry. there will also be a runner-up category for the person with the most entries :).
between now and then, i'll reveal more specifically what the basket will hold!!! thanks for playing in my very first giveaway!!!! please check back to see the new design!!!! and remember - for every comment you leave on the next 40 posts... the more entries you get!!!
