Pay It Forward

Hello lovely readers!  I am still here, contrary to how it may seem from the lack of posts...
I'm excited to announce something new for me and my blog - a Pay It Forward event!  I found this on Kat's blog (which you should all check out), I've never seen anything like this before and I think it will be a tonne of fun!


I will send a surprise gift to the first three commenters on this post.  The gift will be handmade by me.  It will be sent sometime in the next 365 days.  It will be a surprise.  All you need to do is:-

  1. In your comment, tell me your two favourite colours (that will help me make an appropriate gift).
  2. To sign up and receive a gift, you must play along too.  Pay It Forward on your blog, by promising to make a surprise for the first three people who comment on the post.
  3. You must have a blog (this is to help me figure out what to make for you).
  4. After commenting here, you must re-post this or something similar to your blog in 48 hours.  If not, I will chose the next person who comments...
  5. I will need a way to contact you so please leave your email address
I'm really looking forward to making gifts for people, so comment away!

    Hello! I'm so glad you're doing this too! I attempted to sign up else where and missed it by this much: --> <--. GRR! I thought I'd be all altruistic and all "oh, well, it's the spirit of the thing!" but alas, I'm a mere mortal (who desperately loves getting stuff in the mail!).

    So, if it's okay, may I sign up here?

    Colors I absolutely loathe are cotton pink, bright oranges (think fire cone orange), and swamp green. Otherwise I'm not *too* picky!

    I can be reached at the following email: tina_crossgrove(at)hotmail(dot)com

    My blog is Down the Retro Rabbit Hole (retrorabbithole.blogspot.com).

      Hi Tina, that's absolutely brilliant :) And I know what you mean about just missing things - I always seem to be 5 minutes too late!
      I'm looking forward to making your surprise :)

    Hi Megan, what a great idea. Better than the old chain letters that went around decades ago or the email chains wanting recipes. The time frame bit I love. This is a bit of fun my blog needs. I love all colours, although too much mustard doesn't work so well for me! I live in a definite transitional seasonal environment and I am strongly influenced by my surroundings. In winter, I don't wear aqua shades for example, because they are just too summery. Naming shades of colours is tricky for me. I find trying to name up colours for the fabrics I am putting online a fine line between pleasure and torture.

    I'm not sure how to repost the above message: does simply copy and paste work? Chat soon, Gen

      Hi Gen!!
      Copy and paste should work - that's how I got it onto my blog :)
      Can't wait to start making the surprise!
