I Won and Other Ramblings

April 23, 2011 by · 5 Comments

First, I have been meaning to tell you I just won my first blog giveaway! Check out the goodies shipped to me this week from Excuse Me While I Buy This Junk.

(Sorry for the not so great pics, I took them on my cell phone because I was so anxious to open my goodies!)

My favorite item is that wood collapsible Happy Easter basket above. It’s on my kitchen shelf waiting for some yummy candy :-)

Now for the other business at hand. I need some help! Here are my current questions/issues:

  • Does anyone have instructions or a link to instructions for how to change a header in blogger? (I want to customize my look and not use a template – I’m cool like that now)
  • Are you on twitter? are you following me yet?
  • Have you read my post below about my giveaway? You can’t win if you don’t play! :-)

My First Giveaway!

April 22, 2011 by · 45 Comments

We did it! We hit 100 followers! Who would have thought 100 people are hanging on my every word (ok, so that might be a bit of an exaggeration but just let me have my moment here ok?).

Since I’m such a cool, nice gal I decided a giveaway is in order.

What will you win? Well…how about a cadbury egg? No, that’s not big enough. How about a picture of me? Great yes, but not enough. Oh, maybe a framed photo of my assistant?

Hmm, that’s a good option but I have something else in mind. How about…

A Barnes & Noble gift card?! 

I’m not sponsored by B&N in any way, I just like their stores. Plus, you can buy stuff on www.bn.com so it doesn’t matter if you have a store in your area or not. The card can be used to buy your favorite design, craft or style magazines or books! Have a Nook? Use the card to by a new e-book. Want some new music to listen to while you paint furniture? You can get that too! There’s something for everyone :-)

Here are the rules:

  • You have to be a follower. Not a follower yet? Go ahead, click that button on the right, it won’t bite you!
  • Make a comment on this post and tell me what you would use your gift card for. Note: If you do not have a blog and/or your settings do not allow me to reply to your comment, please make sure to include your email address in your comment.
  • For another chance to win, “like” Allie’s Antics (my booth) on Facebook and post a comment on my Facebook wall.
  • You need to do the above by Midnight ET Friday, April 29th (I’m giving y’all lots of time because I know many of you are busy for Easter weekend).
