Blog Giveaway - Sew Mama Sew

It has been awhile since I hosted a giveaway... Two years ago I hosted one in conjunction with Sew Mama Sew's annual giveaway, but last year I missed it. This year I remembered! If you are a fan of giveaways I encourage you to go to the Sew Mama Sew blog for your chance to win HUNDREDS of wonderful handmade items as well as supplies. Many items being given away are sewn but many more are not. There truly is something for everyone.


As for my giveaway, I am offering a dozen handmade bottle cap magnets featuring vintage illustrations of birds, like ones pictured above. I am also offering 24 pre cut images and instructions on how to make your own bottle cap magnets. If you are the winner you will be asked whether you would like to receive Wizard of Oz, Alice in Wonderland, Western, kaleidoscope, or environmentally themed images. You will need to supply your own bottle caps, adhesive and magnets for completing your magnet project. These magnets make great gifts, as they can be personalized. They are also a great way to save some bottle caps from the landfill while giving them a second life as something useful.


In order to win please leave me a comment below telling me the name and URL of your favorite blog. If you don't have a favorite blog then please tell me the name of your favorite craft book, children's book, or cookbook. Please include your email address so I can notify you if you are the winner (if you do not want to leave your email address please check back on May 26th to see if you are the winner). You must enter by 11:59 PM on May 25th. If you would like a second chance to win, please Twitter about my giveaway. If you like my blog, please consider becoming a follower, but this is not required for a chance to win. On midnight of May 25th I will draw a winner using a random number generator. Your magnets will be shipped on May 30th. I am willing to ship this prize internationally. Thanks very much for visiting my blog... good luck!

amy dame said...

my alltime favourite kid's book, that i give to every single baby i know, is the Paperbag Princess by Robert Munsch. my mom always says that every girl born in this world needs a copy of that book. i totally agree, but i think every child, regardless of gender, needs a copy. (i also give copies to friends after bad breakups!) it has such an awesome message, and i'm all for introducing kids to canadian authors from the start. besides, it's robert munsch!

for pre-teens, Gordon Korman's I Want to Go Home and the McDonald Hall series and Martyn Godfrey's Ms Teeny Wonderful series are AWESOME and hysterically funny. and for teens who like time travel/supernatural/etc books, the Winnipeg writer Margaret Buffie is amazing. i'm not a young adult any more, but i still love her stories.

it's awesome to see another cdn blogger!

There are so many new blogs that I've found and enjoying - it is hard to pick one. But I have recently come across www.101cookbooks.com and I'm enjoying that one very much. Also, I'm a newbie to Sew Mama Sew and I'm having fun finding out about all the cute blogs.

I like your blog a lot! The best part of this giveaway is finding new homes on the internet. I also love all in your title! My "kid" now is 25 so that's the only spot I no longer spend time. My favorite cookbook toss is between Deborah Madison Vegetable Soups and Jeanne Lemlin Simple Vegetarian Pleasures. You'd love both!

So cute - a set to keep and a set to give. Thanks for hosting a giveaway! My favorite blog is http://benandbirdy.blogspot.com/

Thank you so much to everyone who entered my giveaway. It have been so fun to read your answers and to check out these blogs. I am going to try to find many of the books at the library. Also, just a bit of info, for those of you who asked if I got the bird images from a common source. These are vintage engravings and you can get a sheet of them to make your own magnets at Piddix on Etsy.

Ok, so the winner is........ Esther!! I will be getting in touch with you now. Thanks again everyone! Please check back to see what is new on my blog. And keep on living creative lives!
