I'm so excited to present #ACraftersDream Christmas Giveaway! This giveaway is hosted by My Merry Messy Life, Earning-My-Cape and Tutus & Tea Parties and has a Christmas, crafting, and supporting small business theme! Each blogger is offering her/his own giveaway worth $25 or more going on now through Sunday, November 4, 2012.
All of the individual giveaways will feature handmade crafted items or crafting supplies. Everyone is looking to give and receive unique one of a kind gifts and this is a great way to try and win some for free, and also to discover some new businesses!
I am giving away a Wire Dragonfly Necklace and Czech Glass Earrings from Wired Essentials (my business).
Wire Dragonfly Necklace $20 Value |
Czech Glass Earrings $10 Value |
Christmas is just around the corner, and the time to start crafting our gifts for friends and family is now! Some of the blogs in the giveaway group will be giving away some awesome crafting supplies!
Sometimes we want to give a handmade gift, but just don't have the time or know-how to make them ourselves. This is a great opportunity to support small businesses and shops who offer handmade items! Some of the blogs in our giveaway group will be highlighting such small businesses and offering giveaway items for them, as well. Even if you don't win the giveaway, we hope that you will keep these small businesses in mind when shopping for that perfect gift for your special someone.
Now you can hop from blog to blog entering as many giveaways as you want!

I love to craft. Last year, we did all homemade gifts for Christmas and made each family an Initial tile to hang on the wall
Making home made gifts for the first time this year - scarves and hats (for as many of my family members as I can crochet them for between now and Christmas). :-)
I love hand made gifts, but usually it involves cooking :) I like making a different dessert every year!
I've never actually given a handmade craft as a gift for holidays/birthdays. I have made ornaments and Christmas cards though and sent them out to family members during the holiday season, but not as their Christmas gift. Oh, well sometimes I do a mass amount of holiday themed baking and put huge baskets of the goodies together. Wap them in pretty cellophane and ribbon, and tag them. And I'll pass those out to my family members. I guess I think of baking a little differently from crafting, probably because I do it so often lol. If I had an actual crafting talent though, I would make gifts for people. I envy those who can. :) (Nikki Marie on rafflecopter)
I just finished up a scarf for my husband.
I have made afgans, scarfs, gloves, prayer shawls, berets. Just about anything under the sun. My great nieces just informed me they wanted a new slouch hat. Makes Christmas so easy.
I have given a few handmade gifts recently. I crocheted my SIL a purse, my hands hurt so bad after rushing it and finishing it in two days, but it was worth it. :-D
