Giveaway notice

 
Well, after having spent time doing everything from sorting out my parents' new computer (the one I'm sitting on right now so it was partially selfish reasons for doing it) to judging finalist entries in a swedish beading contest where I'm a juror, I know what I'll do this weekend -- I'm going to start a few new embroidery projects (must begin doing something for the sequin blog hop). And... preparing for a new giveaway!I'm so excited. I love giving stuff away.

And, no, the giveaway doesn't have anything to do with the photo. I just didn't have a relevant pic to illustrate the post and so added this image instead. You might recognize the scene from this post. The photos are rather big so be sure to click on them for a full-scale view.

I'm digressing. Being too chatty. So -- back to the giveaway.

This post is really just a notice that you might not want to miss my posts -- on this blog and/or Manekis Pärlblogg -- next week if you're interested in a chance to win a bead embroidery book (that's all I'm revealing right now, got to keep you curious, right?). And if you know someone who might want to win, it's not too early to let them know about the upcoming giveaway. I really hope I'll be able to have everything sorted so the giveaway will be published next Friday or there around. Not a promise because you never know what can get in the way, but fingers crossed...

Since the giveaway will run on both my blogs, I'm going to do a (bilingual) form rather than have people write a comment to enter. That way all entries are in one place and there's no worries on how to merge entries into one list, nor do I have to refer readers of one blog to the other in order to enter. Haven't planned on doing the whole "spread the word and get more entries" even though it's a good way to encourage people to spread the word. Basically trying to make sure I don't break some stupid lottery law, especially now that the prize is sponsored by someone other than myself. Anyone got opinions or suggestions on how I've planned the giveaway, you're welcome to voice them (this weekend, later is too late). As usual, you can always e-mail me if you don't want to write a public comment.
