A link was posted in Stitching Bloggers today telling us of this neat event.
"The original idea behind this giveaway event was to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way...This is more than wanting to win something.......that is only the means.......in the end it's about finding kindred spirits. Someone who may be fairly new to blogging, not sure how to navigate, find others and have others find them....Some are long time bloggers and in some cases well known in the art community. Whatever the case it brings all of them together...We are not solving the worlds problems nor are we curing anything nor are we changing the world. We are merely generating a closer community between humans through blogging."
The last time I looked, 737 bloggers have posted giveaways to their blogs. If you'd like to participate by either hosting your own OW~OH giveaway (by 3 February) or just entering some of the giveaways from others (by 11 February), just lick on the logo above.
I have three offerings, so when you leave a comment on THIS POST ONLY, make sure you give me your email address and indicate whether you would like #1, #2, or #3. You can also just indicate "all 3". If I cannot reach you to let you know you've won, or you don't respond within 5 days, someone else will be awarded that prize.
This post will be open for comments until 11:59PM EST on 11 February 2009. I will be choosing the three winners on 12 February using a random number generator.
Without further ado, here are the three giveaways I'm offering:
Good luck to all and make sure you visit some of the other blogs! The links will be available for 6 months following the close of the giveaways to give everyone a chance to check out more of the blogs. The variety of crafts and different mediums of art is truly inspiring!
