A Giveaway for You, Yes You

Thursday, October 14, 2010


Roses are red
Violets are blue,
I have a little
Giveaway for you.


{Insert squeals of delight (yours and mine) here.}

The ever-clever CSN Stores online company has offered to give away a gift certificate to one of my lovely, loyal readers. That's you, dude. You! They have like, 200 different online stores where you can buy anything from a white scalloped Emile Henry pie plate (it's on my wishlist) to a cozy bar stool for your newly renovated cottage kitchen (both of those are on my wishlist, too)(the stool and the renovated kitchen). They even have an adorable bubblegum pink vintage-look ceramic kitchen set that wants to be in my kitchen very badly. How did I not know this before!?!?!? You can take a look at some of their goodies here.

Soooooo, because you are reading this you are awesome you have a chance to win a gift certificate for a whopping.......

$55!

I know, right? Pretty sweet. I'd like to win it so I can get that darned pie plate. Is it illegal to enter your own giveaway? Hmmmm, I'll think about that one for a few minutes.

So, I'll give you two magnificent chances to win. I think the word magnificent is under-used. We should really use it more often.

First chance to win:

- Be a follower of this blog and let me know with a quick comment that you already were one or now are one (it's about time, hello!)

Just because my self-esteem is based on how many folks join this dorky site and since only one person joined today I'm in a bit of a funk. Kidding! Sort of.

Second chance to win:

- Leave a second comment telling me what your #1 wishlist item for your home is (from CSN Stores or any other store of your choice). A link to your wishlist item would be pretty sweet, too. It could be anything. Even if it's a toilet paper holder with ducks on it or a brass lamp from Sears. We all have our own tastes, right?

Just because I'm nosy and want to know what kind of stuff you like. I'm also hoping you'll include some links so that I can distract myself from doing any work for school. 

P.S. I'll be using that random number thingy once I figure out how to work it.

P.S.S. This little giveaway will be open until next Friday at 10:00 p.m.

P.S.S.S. You don't have to have a blog to enter or to be a follower. You just have to sign up to Blogger with a hotmail or google email address or something like that. It's so easy. That's a hint for you, Jeni.

P.S.S.S.S. I'll even let you enter the contest if you're the one person who picked the option "Sarah has disgusting taste in light fixtures" on my light fixture poll. ;)

  6. At last, it seems I am a follower. Not for lack of trying. Something always goes wrong when I try to follow blogs. But I think it worked this time (and was strangely much simpler than I recall).

  7. Doesn't have to be this exact one, but I was having a look at slim, 7.5' Christmas trees online today, after realizing I must put one up on my nearly-winterized & renovated enclosed porch office/craft room STAT. November 1 is not soon enough, so I plan to put up the tree and orange mini-lights in preparation for the trick-or-treaters. (I've always put a tree out there, but since I'm actually using the space now, something a little less bedragled would be nice). (There will soon be at least one tree in every room of my house. Twinkly twinkly).

  30. i could spend all day window shopping online and finding you ideas about the things that i would spend my massive winnings on... but as you may know, i've got a (total) home renovation project on the go right now, and decor is lower on the list of priorities for me as it stands. living in a complete construction zone though, the saving grace is my entirely over-active imagination coupled with the knowledge that some day this will be my dream house... and it could just contain this really wicked bedding...

    i have a thing for dead trees... i think leafless trees are super duper asthetically pleasing, and i also live in a log home -so there's that. ive done the master suite in a grey, with a touch of purple peeking out from the closet, and a gorgeous patterned wallpaper (i felt brave that day!) in grey and silver... i think this would look lovely in there, and bring a dash of crisp whiteness to it.
