Giveaway!

I was going to wait until next week to do this, but I'm so doggone excited about this one that I had to post right away! I recently had my two-year Blogoversary for this blog, and I hit 100 Google Followers, so I've decided to celebrate with a giveaway! And since Easter is about a month away (and I love, love, love Easter eggs) I wanted to make a cute Easter egg animal with my new needle felting kit.



This is Argus. This little peacock is my first needle felting project and he could be yours! All you have to do is leave a comment on this post. That's it! No extra stuff this time. Also, please note that Argy here is for decorative purposes only and he's not intended for use as a toy (he's a bit delicate).

Here are the dirty details:

Giveaway closes on Sunday, March 14, 2010, at 11:59PM PST. (Comment datestamp must be recorded by that date/time)
Winner will be chosen by random.org and will be announced on Monday, March 15, 2010.
This giveaway is open to US participants only. (Sorry International folks, shipping will be a little higher on this one :)
I will announce the winner on my blog and make every attempt to contact the winner (you may wish to leave your email address in your comment, or a place where I can message you via facebook, twitter, etsy, etc.) If the winner doesn't respond within 10 days, a new winner will be chosen.


Good luck!

  1. I've been thinking of giving needle felting a try. Did you find it is easy to pick up, or frustrating and curse inducing?

  5. He's super adorable! You did a great job! I love how his body looks all egg-shaped. Needle-felting is a craft I'd like to try someday, I just haven't had the nerve yet.
