Extremely very early spring giveaway

 

Well, I looked out the window of my home here in cold Wisconsin this morning, and saw that it was snowing again. I decided to cheer myself and others up by having a giveaway! I realize that to folks living in warmer climates or "down under" the equator, snow at this time may be something to enviously covet - but I can't pack and ship snow, LOL ;-)

So, the giveaway will include hand dyed thread, plus a random bead assortment! Please leave one comment on this post to be entered in the giveaway. Three winners will be chosen at random on Friday, February 25.

Readers of this blog from outside of the U.S. are welcome to enter this giveaway. The package will be marked "gift".

    I would try and send spring your way, but it hasn't made it here yet either. Yesterday we shoveled about 2 feet of snow out of the drive(and my husband said spring was here cuz' he saw a robin-I told him he was too early). :)

    Please, please enter my name. Your HDT is among my favorites and I'd give them a good home. It'd be familiar here, too, since the forcast is 6"+ snow heading our way to go on top of what we have from last storm. Karen in OR

    We don't have snow but we've gone from 70s last week to only 30s and windy - a wonderful taste of spring to be taken away, how sad. But it is only February, what else can we expect? Whoever wins will get to enjoy a little spring inside with their prize no matter the weather outside.
