So, without further ado, here is what I have on offer:
A copy of 'Cute And Easy Crochet' by Nicki Trench (I have it and I love it!) This was a pristine, sparkly new book until about four seconds after I took this photo and dropped it on its spine on the floor - that'll teach me not to take photos in the hall as I'm trying to get the kids' shoes and coats on ready for school. Error. Anyway, every time you look at the dent on the spine, you'll be able to think of me, shouting and getting stressed on my way to the school run...
A lovely little hardback notebook from Pip Studio. I've included this because my post about my gubbins 'bible' really seemed to resonate with a lot of you and I wanted to share the crafty notebook love.
A packet of 'Pretty Please Mix n Match Stationery', which includes writing paper, envelopes and stickers - all in a slightly camp, 'hello sailor' sort of vein. I might find it quite hard to part with this...
There are also a couple of other little goodies that I've collected together, which I will keep as a surprise.
If you would like to enter this giveaway, which I will leave open until 1 March, please:
* become a follower of this blog, if you aren't already
* leave me a comment to let me know you'd like to be entered
* if you blog about it, let me know and I'll enter your name into the hat a second time.
And before I go, I should let you know about two blog friends of mine who are also having giveaways (cor, it's giveaway central round here...) Nicki and Ashley both have some beautiful goodies on offer, so do pop over to see them.
Good luck! x
Edit: Blimey, I'm really nervous now that no-one will enter - this is worse than having a party and thinking you'll end up sobbing into your wine glass at the end of the night because only your mum and best friend turned up...
