Give-away Fun

I had so much fun doing my last (first) Give-away, that I wanted to do another. I tried to think of a clever contest but, alas, none came to me.

If you'd like to be entered into a random drawing for one of two $25 credits good toward a purchase in my Etsy shop, just leave a comment below.

Have an idea for a contest/theme for a Give-away that I can use on my blog? I'd love to hear it. An idea will earn you 2 entries into the Give-away.
The names of the two winners will be drawn on October 1st.

Thanks for stopping by!

I love coming up with promotions ! I'm doing a Product Party Week on my blog with a new giveaway and review each day.I have learned the less work you make the reader do, the more entries you'll have. They prefer the blogger to put forth the effort! We need to do some fun stuff with you to show off your jewelry! You could put on wild costumes and pair them with some of your pieces. Or print out a movie star's face from a pic and put the earrings on their ears, a. Have a fake red carpet event. Silly photos please the masses!

thanks for visiting my blog... i hope the ladybug bag turns out like i envisioned!

an idea for a contest:

maybe you could have people write about a piece of jewelry that is special to them... describe it and why it is special...

then you choose the best ... or you could do a random draw of the entries...

either way... people visiting your blog could read the stories and add their own...

just an idea

I just love all your beautiful work! Another idea for your contest ...Maybe you can have a "where in the world" contest - take a picture of your jewelry someplace "famous" and have viewers guess where the item is. Of course, only those in your area can guess "perfectly" and that would not necessarily be the winning entry ... the most creative guesses could be selected and winner is randomly drawn :)

Thanks for visiting my blog not too long ago. Giveaways are great and are a wonderful way to get exposure for yourself. The items in your Etsy shop look adorable. I've added you to my Reader.

Hi Mary! I'm not sure about a contest but I've been planning on a "challenge" and inviting other etsyers to do the same! It will be a 30 day challenge to help turn a positive action into a habit. My challenge is to sketch 30 minutes a day everyday for 30 days. I will be posting more about it in a couple of days and plan to start on October 1. If you have some thing you'd like to turn into a habit please join me and i'll post yours on my blog as well! have a great day! Di

Thanks for the great ideas.
Hmmm, I wonder how I could make my town interesting enough for a 'where in the world' contest.

Oh, Di I have so many things I need to make into positive habits, now which one to choose. This challenge may be just what I need.

Hi, I am new to your blog (got her through ravelry), but I would love to be entered into your contest.

Sorry I do not really know any good ideas for contests.

What a fun idea for comments! I think you could show your jewelry on dolls or stuffed animals, to add whimsy to beauty!
