As Promised, A Great Giveaway!

I've done giveaways in the past but since this is a fresh-start to my formerly lack-luster blog, I'm going to be making this one extra special.  I have high hopes for this blog, and this year in general.  I'm looking more into how I can become a stay at home mom, and even though that may not be attainable in the near future, the success of my Etsy shop is critical in keeping my growing family in food, clothes and essentials.  It helps pay the bills and keeps us afloat in a sea of endless bills, car repairs and other 'emergencies'.

I'd like to be able to give something back.  I don't only crochet for profit.  Its a great way to express a lot of creativity that I don't have another outlet for, and I love being able to pick of a hook and a wad of string and know that something beautiful can come from it.  With that said, I'll soon be offering Gift Certificates at BJC on Etsy, and the very first one will be given away right here!  Gift Certificates are easy to use, and can be used toward anything in my shop, including ready-to-ship items, patterns, and custom orders! 

• $25.00 Gift Certificate for Blue J Crochet Etsy Shop (http://www.bluejcrochet.etsy.com)

Gift Certificate can be used toward any pattern, item or custom order, including sale items.  Instructions for how to redeem the Gift Certificate included with the Gift Certificate.  Not valid at any other Etsy or online Shop.  Must be used within 1 year of purchase/prize date or available funds will be lost.

*UPDATE 1/15/12:  My Shop has moved to Artfire!  Gift Certificate will be for my new ArtFire shop (all the same items and prices as Etsy, just a different name!)

Please tell your friends, families or any new or expecting mommies you might know!  I can make anything for any size but babies and tots are my favorite customers to please!  $25.00 is enough for mary janes and a matching headband, or a ton of patterns, or an owl hat... tons of stuff!
