Givaway Featuring Lizzy Ford Books!

Well, it looks like once again I am posting few and far between... to host another giveaway in May.  When I sponsor The Great Diaper Cloth Hunt I like to showcase an additional giveaway for the hunters.  Remember if you are not already a hunter, its not too late.  Lots of great prizes to be won ... and a lot of them are not just for babies.

This time it is to showcase a giveaway that I am having for one of the authors that I do custom work for, Lizzy Ford of Guerrilla Wordfare.  I was contacted by Lizzy's amazing assistant, Jenn last year to make some swag for them.  Jenn also was kind enough to send me some e-books when she found out that I was a big reader.  Soon after that... well, a few weeks later since I was in the middle of the holiday rush I downloaded the books into my kindle and the rest is history.  I'm now officially a fan and have already read several of Lizzy's trilogies.

So far my favorite of favs is The Witchling Triology.  Along with many Lizzy Ford fans I'm highly anticipating the release of book 3... Winter Fire.  In the meantime I have a couple of prizes to giveaway.  You can only win once.  ;-)

1st Place: A Rhyn Trilogy paperback book and Lizzy Ford logo necklace handcrafted by Whimsical Charms (aka ME).

2nd Place: Book 1 & 2 of The Witchling Trilogy, Dark Summer & Autumn Storm with a themed bottle cap book thong featuring the new covers for the books.

Candejo's Creations is Having a 5 Year Anniversary Sale!

As some of you know, I belong to an online message board, Best of Boards (aka BoB) and we have an auction site on there. Our most successful seller on there is Candice, artist, creator, designer, manufacturer of Candejo's Creations. Candice started her business selling on the BoB auction 5 years ago! Wow, how time flies. You can see what she currently has for sale here: Candejo's auctions.



Candejo's Creations is having a 5th Anniversary Sale. You can read more about it on her blog. For my part, because I want to win one of her handcrafted clutches, I'm writing this post which includes the following review. :-)



Through the years, I have purchased from Candice purses, tons of purses.. sewn purses, felted purses, knitted purses... lots of purses. LOL Here is a couple of pictures of my gorgeous nieces from a birthday party a few years ago. These purses were purchased before the current CPSIA laws took effect. Sadly, Candice no longer makes kids items because of the moronic law (but that's another argument for another day). Luckily, these two girls were lucky enough to to enjoy their purses for many years... and look what the best thing for the purse is... and place to hold your pinata stash!



I've also bought from Candice lots of her Magic Slippers... and they do keep your feet warm. As a matter of fact, I need to go shopping soon and purchase some of them. One of the problems with our new home is the hardwood floors are sooo cold in the mornings. Even here in California!

Everything I've ever purchased I've been happy with and I love how she always ships everything right away. Great customer service is definitely something I look for in a seller when I'm purchasing online. I have met Candice a few times in person and she's a lot of fun and it s hows in her work!

Don't forget to check our her blog, Candejo's Creations Blog and find out all the different ways you can enter to win one of her unique homemade creations. Enjoy! Check back daily since she is doing a total of 5 giveaways. Woohoo!
