Birthday Giveaway!!

Tuesday, September 7, 2010

So, I officially turn 30 this Saturday, 9/11 Day,
and just to celebrate and let you know how much I appreciate
the fact that you've even arrived at this page in the middle of a HUGE blogosphere, I've been shopping for YOU!!!

There will be two prizes.
The first is the adorable
All Seasons Coin Purse from Anthropologie.
The second prize is a package of six handmade "Thank You" cards from jessicaspaperie at Etsy. I'm super excited about these because I'm a HUGE fan of handmade products and also, these cards are actually made by my cousin, who is a genius paper crafter, and just opened her Etsy store two weeks ago. The really crazy twist is she's expecting her first baby this Saturday--MY birthday! Cool, huh?

If you'd like to participate, just leave a comment on this post and make sure to include your full name. The deadline will be at midnight this Friday the 11th.

Since I'm all about family over here,
I've decided to put each participant's name in a bowl and let my daughter draw out two names (it's really important that I have your full name in case of duplicate first names).
The first name drawn will receive the coin purse and the second will receive the cards.
The winners can then e-mail me their addresses and their prizes will be on the way!

This is just a small way for me to say thanks for all the support you've shown as I post the projects that result from the craziness bouncing around in my brain.

  6. Happy Birthday! You have the greatest style! And your curls look amazing on you, not at all like the big frizzy mess on top of my head. (What is your secret? Favorite products?)

  10. Elizabeth M: I use Biolage Gelee and Paul Mitchell Freeze and Shine Spray...a little trick my friend taught me is to use the furnace vent on the floor rather than a hairdryer, (the heat is so diffused it's like airdrying super fast), I kick on the heat and lie down to read a book while my hair dries = big, bouncy hair that is somewhat less frizzy.

    Happy early birthday - 30 was hard for me to swallow! My oldest was born on 9/9 but came home from the hospital on 9/11 and I'm glad to have some happy memories for that day. Good luck to the mama's who are expecting this month - what an exciting time!!!

    P.S. - I'm in my copycat Field Scout outfit today :)

  20. What a fun giveaway -- I've really enjoyed your blog since I ran accross it a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed the blog about buying a full year in advance for the kiddos -- I have a feeling that I will be referring back to that blog occasionally after my little gal arrives in a few weeks! Keep up the fantastic, creative work!

    Oh, & Happy Birthday! I promise the 30s aren't nearly so bad as it seems once you get over the initial trauma! ;-)
