You're a Winner!!

I was lucky enough to happen upon (my sister's cute sister-in law) Holly's blog the other day. And it was a crafty give away tag! I am feeling very crafty at the moment (just made a darling reversible apron, and homemade soap) and I am in to perpetuating good deeds. Makes everybody feel good right?

So here it is...

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me.

My choice.

Just for you.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make. (but i will try)
2- What I create will be just for you. (this is the best part- a personalized gift. I like to create- but it is even more fun to do it for a specific someone)
3- It'll be done this year. (actually this month- let's be honest. I am feeling crafty now and I dread doing it 11 months from now)
4- You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a story. It may be photography or an article on properly cleaning your face before a masque. I may sew or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. (but more likely an apron- cause I am in to that right now, or soap- got lots of left overs, or dinner for a week, or a cute egg wreath for Easter) Who knows? Not you, that's for sure!
5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange. (but I won't- I will want you to LOVE what I craft for you!)

The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on your own blog and offer the same deal to 5 of your own lucky blog readers. So, the first 5 people to leave a comment telling me they are in win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it.The end.

And the fine print? my family can't win. They get my craftiness all the time. And who knows, I am always in the mood to bake so don't be shy about commenting if you aren't in the first 5 I might make you cookies!

Oh pick me! I so excited!!! I am the first one!

I guess these means I better start thinking about what I can make for five lucky winners...who will post on my blog (I don't even know that many people who read my blog though so this is going to be tricky).

Courtney said...

nerdy me....just read the clause about no family being able to win...Well Shucks!!

Good luck to all of you who are not related to this mini Martha, you are going to win something great!!

Brittany said...

Sweet! I'm a winner! I can't wait!

Jenny H said...

I am a friend of Ash's...and blog stalked your blog. I have to thank you because I made your yummy tomato soup for Sunday Dinner last week and it was a hit.
Next up, the chocolate sugar cookies.

Lori said...

I love this idea! Looks like I am one of the 5. I can't wait to do this on my blog. How fun!

Lori said...

Okay so I am long distant family. I hope that doesn't count.

Marianne said...

I want to play!

Define "family" though. Can rather extended family members who don't get stuff from you all of the time still play? ;o)

Adrianne said...

Don't worry Lori and Marianne you are both distant enough family you can win!!

Liz said...

Can I be in the running? I've lost track of how many have commented, but if you're still looking for a fifth I'd love to be the happy recipient of some sort of Adrianne craftiness. I just got on here to FINALLY write down the tomato soup recipe. Can't wait to make it!

Liz said...

Oh great, I didn't read the fine print either. I don't have a blog so I can't repost this, which disqualifies me. That's okay. I love your idea of spreading the love by having the winners do the same for five people. Great idea!

Adrianne said...

Liz you can win as long as you pass it on!! A blog isn't a requirement just find a way to spread the love and kindness with 5more people!!

It's Been a Day! said...

Hey, A - sad to have missed this little lottery! But I don't have a blog of my own so I suppose I couldn't have passed it on... We did make your chocolate sugar cookies for V-day and I even shared your site with a friend who loved them. Maybe the cauliflower soup tomorrow night... I swear I can't believe you are superwoman - making aprons in all your spare time. you are a MACHINE! Love it - post pics of your cute give aways. :) ps - will you post your syrup recipe. I have my mom's but it's pretty basic.
