I’m doing this a little different this year. 

Normally, a few months before the end of the year, I announce that all purchases made from then til the end of year will go into the draw to win.  This year I’m going to make it the whole year. 

So, if you have already purchased something from my site so far this year, you are already in the draw.  If you have purchased more than once then you have that many entries.  Which means the more purchases, the more chances to win.

So what’s the prize?  The winner will receive all the one-offs, odds and sods beads and cabochons I’ve accumulated throughout the year.  Some may be tests that I decided not to go with, or they may of been slightly smaller or larger than the set they were meant to go with, or I may of just pinched one here and there from the batch when I made them.

Good Luck!

I forgot to mention on here that I have set up a Fan Page on Facebook.  So far I’m keeping it relatively updated with the type of small comments that would be a waste here on the blog.

Currently I have 191 fans or ‘likes’ on there, so have decided that when that number reaches 200, I shall have a giveaway.  Out of those 200 I shall randomly pick three people, those people will receive a discount voucher worth 40% off.

So if you haven’t already become a fan, be sure click ‘like’ now to be in the chance to be one of the winners.  Click HERE to be taken directly to the page.

You’ll also be able to have a peak at some new glasswork that I have yet to load onto my website.

Cheers!

It seems that I have confused a few people with the newsletter announcing the End of Year competion winner.  To clarify, Danielle Rapinett, is the winner of the beads.  I apologize to those of you that were unsure.  Next time I send out any newsletters, I’ll be sure to check the wording better.

For the 2010 end of year comp, besides the main prize of all the orphan beads, I will be having two runner prizes, so there are more chances for you to win something. 

There will also be a change to the entries.  Previously, the entries were those that purchased in November and December.  From now on, anyone who purchases anything from the site during the WHOLE year will have their name entered.  Also, multiple purchases means multiple entries.

I’d also like to thank you all for your custom over the years, and hope we continue our aquaintance well into the future.

Regards

Anne

We have a winner!!

Congratulations Dani Rapinett!  You’ve won the beads shown below!

I’ll be getting them into the post for you this coming week!

Just a quick reminder that you only have a couple of days left to get an entry in for the end of year competition!  

Just purchase anything from my lampwork website, and you will be automatically entered into the draw.  You will have the chance to win all my orphan and experimental beads from this year, worth over $400!

Good luck!

And the winner of the above beads is comment #2 - Margie!

I’ll contact you shortly for your address Margie, then get the beads on their way to you.

For your chance to win these three beads, simply reply to this post by clicking on the comment link at the bottom.  Remember to put in your contact info (email) so that I can contact you in case you’re the winner. 

This draw will be open for five days, at the end of the five days I’ll pop all comments into random.org and it will generate a winner.  I will then email the winner to get your address.

Just a note.. comments on my blog are moderated to prevent spamming, so as soon as I see your comment I’ll approve it.

Good luck!

PS… ’scuse the finger prints on the beads!

I’ve decided to scrap my monthly draws for now, and instead offer occassional giveaways.  I think it’ll be less predictable and more fun.  These giveaways will be at random times, and can be for vouchers, beads, anything at all! 

I will be tying the giveaways to my blog, so you will need to keep an eye on it.  Or even easier, just subscribe to it and you’ll be kept informed via email.

So, how do these giveaways work?  I’ll pop a post up here in my blog with details of the prize.  For your chance to win that prize, all you have to do is respond to the post by adding a comment.  Just make sure that you leave me some way to contact you, in case you’re the winner.  After a couple of days, I will randomly pick a winner out of those comments using random.org and they get the prize!!

It’s that simple!

So keep an eye out!  I may hold a giveaway tomorrow, next week, or whenever!!
