Today's post has had me very excited for some time. My birthday is on the 23rd of May and I had been thinking about running a birthday giveaway when I found out that the Sew Mama Sew May giveaway day was happening again! I have enjoyed discovering new crafty blogs through past Sew Mama Sew Giveaway days, so now that I'm a blogger too, I have decided to take part! I can't think of a better "bloggy" way to celebrate my birthday.
Since my crafty endeavours primarily focus on jewellery making, I have decided to give away the winner's choice of EITHER the Vintage Red Ring OR the Domestika Blue Ring, neither of which are available in my store yet. Both rings are made from vintage West German domed cabochons and contemporary adjustable ring bases. In order to better fit in with the fact that it's a Sew Mama Sew giveaway, I have also sewn a small fabric pouch for the ring.
So, what do you have to do to enter this giveaway?
Firstly: Tell me which ring you would choose if you were the winner, and who it would go to (it's okay to keep it for yourself, he he).
For extra entries (feel free to do all, some or none of these):
1. Visit my store and tell me which piece is your favourite, and why.
2. Follow my blog publicly. If you are already a follower, just leave a comment telling me you are.
3. Follow me on Twitter and leave me your username. Or remind me that you are already a follower.
4. Tell me what kind of tutorials you would like to see on my blog.
4. Tell me what kind of tutorials you would like to see on my blog.
PLEASE put each entry as a SEPARATE comment and leave me your email address so that I can contact you if you are the winner.
This giveaway is open worldwide and will run from today, May 17, until 3pm May 21 Australian time (AEST).
The winner will be chosen using Random.org and has 48 hours to respond to my email before I pick another winner.
EDIT: This giveaway is now closed. Thanks to everyone for entering my giveaway!

ReplyDeleteHi Deb, I am a follower of your blog. I would choose the red ring and it would be for myself although I feel I would find it on the finger of my 18yr old daughter far too often but I feel to the need to funk myself up turning 50 this year with some lovely jewellery so she'd have a fight on her hands.
ReplyDeletehugs Deb
I would chose the red ring and keep it for myself of course! LOL
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!! Hard to choose but I think I'd go with the red one, and keep it all to myself :)
ReplyDeleteI really like them both, but I *think* I would go with the blue one. Very pretty!
