Pay it Forward

My friend Kim did this on her blog, and I was the first commenter! Yay! I love getting gifts in the mail, especially homemade ones. And since I also love to make homemade gifts, I am excited to do this on my blog as well. According to the rules, you have 365 days to send out your homemade gifts. Rest assured, that if you win, I will not wait 365 days to send you your gift. Maybe 30 days. I'm not making any specific commitments, I'm just saying 365 days is a little long, and I'll get it done before that.


1. Be one of the first THREE bloggers to leave a comment on this post, which then entitles you to a handmade item from me (yeah for handmade!).

2. If you are one of the first three to make a comment, you are a winner! And you then agree to post this challenge on your own blog, meaning that you will pay it forward, creating a handmade gift -anything!- for the first THREE bloggers who leave a comment on YOUR post about this giveaway!

3. The gift that you send to your 3 friends can be from any price range and you have 365 days to make/ship your item. This means you should be willing to maintain your blog at least until you receive your gift and have shipped your gifts. And, remember it’s the spirit and the thought that count!

4. When you receive your gift, blog about it! If you are not one of the first three to comment on this post, you can still play along. Go ahead and start your own Pay It Forward chain, and encourage your blogging friends to do the same! It's all about paying it forward.

Would it be considered cheating if I bought homemade gifts and handed those out?:)

by the way, I'm kidding Maire - I love to make you homemade gifts, cause I know you appreciate them.

Ah Man! I told Marie to post for me! She must have wanted it for herself!!!! selfish animal...

Heather - you can bake cookies or something if you don't want to make anything crafty. Or, really, you could buy something....the fun part is just getting a package in the mail, don't you think?

Mush, the still small voice told me to come on your blog. It was so strange because I accidently clicked on your blog, not refreshing it all day long like you must think. It was meant to be.

Cher, I tried to log on for you, filthy animal!
