My One Year Blog-aversary!!!

Wow, 2011 has been such a busy year so far!!!  So busy, in fact, that in the midst of adjusting to having one child in school and another at kindergarten and coming to terms with my dad's cancer diagnosis and treatment, I completely forgot about my one year blog-aversary.  I know, it's not a particularly important milestone given everything else that's been going on in my life, but I still thought that it would be fun to celebrate in some small way.


As you know, I've been working on fabric cuff creations for some time now and I thought I would belatedly celebrate my blog-aversary by giving away a sweet little fabric cuff!  The Amy cuff is a new design I've been working on in my attempts to combine ribbon ruffles, jewellery findings and cabochons.  Some vital statistics about "Amy": 18cm/7.25 in long and 4cm/1.75 in wide, the buttons and lace used are both vintage.


So how do you get a chance to win the cute Amy cuff?  Simply leave me a comment telling me where you would wear this cuff if you were the winner!  Would you save the cuff for special occasions or wear it every chance you can get?  Don't forget to leave me a way to contact you in the even that you are the winner.

You can get extra entries by following my blog, becoming a Facebook or Twitter follower or hearting my Etsy store.  Just leave me a separate comment for each entry, your FB/Twitter/Etsy username and a way to contact you.     :)
This giveaway is open worldwide and will end at 4pm (Melbourne time) on Friday, 8 April 2011.  The giveaway winner will be chosen using Random.org.

This giveaway is now being extended till Monday, 11th April 2011!

    Congratulations on your Anniversary and I hope you're coping well with all the stress.

    The cuff is so lovely, will definitely wear it when I hang out with the girls, just to make them so jealous, lol!

    Thanks for the giveaway and take good care!

    Happy blog-aversary! Mum was diagnosed with cancer in November - 25 radiation treatments. I know how emotionally and physically exhausting it can be for those around them. My mum was given the all clear last week, all of the cancer cells have died and it's amazing to see her now when we thought she wouldn't make it ... miracles 'do' happen! Love, hugs♡ & prayers, Michelle xo
