Banned Book Week Giveaway!

For those of you who didn't know, this last week has been Banned Book Week (It goes until tomorrow, Oct 3rd... so check it out! It's never too late to start reading!)

In honor of this, I am having 2 giveaways!

Giveaway #1:
Our local bookstore was giving away these nifty little pins that say "I Read Banned Books"



Needless to say, I go to the bookstore a lot (A LOT) and now have enough pins to share!

I have 4 pins to give away, 2 blue, 2 pink. I will send one pin to the first 4 people who reply to this saying they want one (make sure to include an email address I can reach you at, so I can get your actual address... or you can just send it to the email addy on my sidebar to the right). There are no other stipulations to get a pin, you just have to say, "Hey! Send me one!!"

If you want a specific color, let me know (although if I run out I'll just send you the other color)


Giveaway #2:
Giveaway #2 is for a Hard Cover, First Edition copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (aka, a banned book!)




For this item, if you would like to be entered in the giveaway, please post a link to my giveaway on your blog (either in a post, or in the sidebar... you can use the icon I've made to link to it if you like!) and then post here to let me know that you've done it!

You can enter until October 15th, and then on October 16th I will draw the winner!

It doesn't matter to me if you already have a copy of this book, or if you've already read it... if you know someone who hasn't, or who would be interested in it, then please enter! You can also post this to your blog even if you don't want to be entered (if I'm an avid reader of your blog, though, let me know you don't want to be entered!!)... my main goal is to get folks reading!

International entries are welcome for both giveaways! :)

Also, if anyone wants, they can steal my "I read banned books" pin image from my sidebar to post in their blog XD

I hope you guys find this fun!

Give Away Pay It Forward!

This little game is from Gumi Gumi Island's blog:

Here are the rules:
1. the first 3 comments on this post win a give away item!
2. But to win this prize, you must post this giveaway on your blog as well, offering 3 prizes with the same rules!

Prizes can be as big or as small as you choose... if you'd rather give away helpful items (such as crafting supplies you have extra of, old crafting books, old crafting magazines, etc) instead of a handmade item, that's fine too!

Mine will be a Mushroom, Acorn Pin or Wooden Pin of the winner's choice (unless I can think of something better... Maybe a custom Acorn Pin (as in, a design I haven't yet made, but you would like?)?) Or possibly any of my future crafts I post here... because, oh yes, there will be more! :)

Have Fun!
