Watch for the giveaway soon!

We all want lots of things right? I was contacted recently by the coolest place. They are called CSN. They have about 200 stores and you can find absolutely everything you could ever dream of in their websites. Seriously, they have an entire section just for shoes! Over 7000 pair. I am in heaven. They carry everything from baby supplies to furniture, and every kitchen gadget you can think of. I found a cool bed that I LOVE. And they offer Free shipping and hassle free returns. We all can use a little less hassle in our lives, right?

In order to make my readers more aware of CSN and the fantastic merchandise they carry, I will be doing a giveaway of a $40 gift card redeemable toward any purchase in their stores in the next week or so. Check back for updates and how to enter!

Free Stuff??

Summer time is here...well according to the calendar anyway. This has been the wettest June on record here in Oregon, and the HIGH for the next 7 days is supposed to be 70. I am not sure I even believe SPRING is here!

Anyway, back to the point of this post. I have been contacted by a national chain of stores wanting me to promote them and do a free giveaway on my blog. From what I have been able to figure out so far, it looks like a cool deal for everyone. I promote them, you get free stuff. Sounds like a win-win to me. So I will keep you up to date on how that is coming along.

In the meantime, I am working on SEVERAL new projects. Making a set of towels/hot-pads/dishcloths for my new DIL, Kessa for her new kitchen. Making a set of place mats with matching coasters for another DIL, Diana. Just finished up 2 squares for the Bakers dozen Swap. also making the Loom-a-long Simple Lace Wrap by Renee Van Hoy. (pattern here) http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/simple-lace-wrap I am using tapestry wool and it is turning out lovely. I will post pictures of all these projects later on.
