The First Sand Fibers 1,500 GiveAway

I love celebrating my milestones with you, so it seems only right that I have another GiveAway now that I've reached 1,500 sales in my SandFibers Etsy store! Thank you so much for helping me get here! :D

Next Tuesday, I will announce the lucky winner of this Sand Fibers Ivory Ndebele Lariat:


For your chance(s) to win this lariat, you can do one or all of the following:

1. Leave a comment here.

2. Blog about this give away and leave another comment here with a link to your blog post.

3. Twitter about this give away and leave yet another comment here letting me know you did. Be sure to reference @SandFibersRedux in your tweet.

4. Share/Link to this post on Facebook and let me know you did so in one last comment here.

Please be sure that I have a way to reach you, so leave your email or your etsy store name or something in the comment as well.

If you do all four of these things, you will leave four separate comments and have four separate chances to win. You could, of course, choose to just do one of the four, or two, or three...and that's okay as well. Just enter!

Entries/comments must be made by midnight on Monday, August 2. I will use my trusty random number generator to determine the winner on Tuesday morning and will announce the winner on this blog later that day.

Good luck! Now be well and get going!

Please note:  This drawing closed at midnight on August 2, 2010!

  51. Gorgeous lariat - that's chance number 1, right?

    ReplyDelete
  52. Blog post: http://sweetfreedom-designs.blogspot.com/2010/07/cds-1500-sales.html

    that's #2, right?

    It worries me that my word verification is "unstable". Should it?

    ReplyDelete
  53. Facebook posted - that's number 3, right?

    ReplyDelete
  54. And unfortunately, I am not a twit (although I am a "twiddly twat from Agnes Scott, but I don't believe that was one of your hoops. Not sure why...) - but anyway, I don't tweet.

    But I do have a drawerfull of plastic spoons (in cellophane - so they are still sterile) that I have been accumulating for years from various fast food places. I could mail them to you in exchange for chance #4- so you never run low on spoons again.....

    See how I am not above bartering?

    Congrats on the sales!

    ReplyDelete
  74. And ...."ta-da"!!
    Facebooked!

    But Mom won't let me tweet - I think it is because she is scared of birds.

    Also, she told me not to tell you, but she is TOTALLY jealous of you -
    Congratulations on your sales - I know it was a lot of work!
