Think, Think, Think.......Giveaway?

As my favorite friend Winnie the Pooh would say.......think, think, think. I am at home today taking care of my sickly girl. She is sleeping due to having one heck of an upper respiratory infection, plus strep throat. Hmmmm, gotta love those daycares! So, I am enjoying some computer time....trying to be ULTRA quiet, and I am doing some thinking. My thoughts are......."I wonder. Do I have enough readers to do a giveaway?" I know I have a counter on my blog, but I confess, sometimes I can not remember what the numbers are! You'd think after 3 years, my daughter Madelyn would return the brain cells she stole from me in utero. I guess she still thinks she needs them. I beg to differ!

SO! If I truly do have readers out there in blog land and you all would be interested in a little free jewelry giveaway..........post a comment.....say Yay or Nay, or what ever you want, I am not picky. Even if there is only one lone, solitary reader out there, please post. Your chances of being a winner are really good! HA!
I am thinking about a "Mother's Ring" giveaway. Don't be fooled by the name, it could be a Grandmother's ring, Nana ring, birthstone ring, or just a fashion ring for those without children! They are made from 0.925 sterling silver and Swarovski crystal rondelles. They are strung on jewelers professional elastic powercord, no fray and treated with super duty jewelers glue on the hidden knot! You can see some very bad pictures of some beautiful custom orders here.

Please, let me know what you all think.......if there is a "you all". If I get any kind of response I will proceed with a jewelry giveaway. If you all are NOT interested in the rings, give me your opinion on another piece, as I am willing to go for anything........earrings, pendants, bracelets, childrens jewelry, etc.......ANYTHING! I need something to get my creative juices flowing again. Do not get me wrong, I am happy with ANY orders I get, but they have all been mother's rings and birthstone bracelets. Oooo, I sound ungrateful. Sorry, that is not how I meant it to come out. I think maybe that since all of my orders are from around my hometown and from work, I am wanting to connect to more customers out there in the rest of the world!

My hubby is staying home tomorrow with the little one as I have a cholesterol clinic to run at work. Thursday......I have jury duty...........yeah, you can pick yourself up off the floor now........stop laughing.......I mean really........stop.

I will leave this post up until the weekend at the latest. Have a great week......go have fun! Take care and GO CREATE!!!!!!

Warmly,
Leslie

Hi Leslie. My name is Santie. I'm a beadaholic from South Africa. I've 'discovered' all these lovely blogs on beads and crafts some months ago, and I've got 'em all as a favourite link. While I was reading your post on the Giveaway, I thought, wouldn't it be just great to receive a wonderful, beady gift from over 'there'??? And yes, I would LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUVE such a beautiful ring!!!! I've been beading since last September, and I've learnt so much, but I still consider myself a beginner. Needless to say, all ya crafty people are such an inspiration for me. And don't worry! I'm sure you have many readers, all over the world! I'm definately a regular reader-beader!!!!!

Santie,
Hello! What a treat! It is fantastic to meet you and have you as a reader! Welcome! I will confess also that I too am a beadaholic. I will also confess that I am a bead snob too.......I seem to be drawn to the expensive ones! Oh, you are going to have so much fun with beading and reading all the blogs....I know I do! Thank you for stopping in and letting me know you are there! Take care! Thank you again!

Warmly,
Leslie

Bead snob? Hie hie, first time I hear that one! But you're surely entitled to your 'snobism', and that is probably the reason why you are successful!

Ciao!
