Articles of a Domestic Goddess' Madly Mahvelous Scaevnger Hunt Giveaway Time Slot

Posted on September 3, 2014 by articlesofadomesticgoddess

I hope you’ve all had fun running around to the various other Makers’ pages! I also hope you’ve been able to keep up! Make sure you keep an eye out for chances to win this week! If you’re not up to speed, VISIT MY BLOG ON THE SUBJECT FOR MORE INFORMATION BY CLICKING HERE!

And NOW it’s time for MY part in this shin-dig!

I will be giving away 3 patterns of choice to ONE winner!

Visit my Ravelry Store and let me know which of them you would like to win!
http://www.ravelry.com/designers/articles-of-a-domestic-goddess

Starting Wednesday, September 3rd at 4pm and running until 10pm:

Here’s the plan, stan… and please follow both steps of your entry will not be valid.

Entries will be validated and chosen using a random generator!

Step #1: Join my crochet group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ArticlesoftheEverydayDomesticGoddess/

I think you’ll find that we already have a very helpful, very talented group of ladies in there. There is no censorship in Articles of the Everyday Domestic Hooker Crochet Group. The rules are as follows: Crocheters unite! Post whatever you’d like to. No rules. There is a difference between posting something you’re selling and spamming. If you are annoying, that’s spamming. Don’t be annoying. Well, I guess that’s a rule, but it’s really just a guideline, isn’t it? lol

Step #2: Post on the wall and introduce yourself. Share with us something that you have made.

It doesn’t matter how new/old it is. Tell us something about yourself, how long you’ve been crocheting, show us your favorite item you’ve made, or your first item you’ve made (and we’ve all been there, so don’t be shy!). Here is your chance to show off! If you have a business page, you may add it to the business name drop file. If you have a moment, take a look at our events. We have our first crochet along going on right now through September 30th. Some are already finished and there are some at varying stages of being finished. I’ll admit even I am only about half done!

WINNER WILL BE CHOSEN AT THE END OF THE ALLOTTED TIME. WINNER IS CHOSEN RANDOMLY.

Madly Mahvelous Da-Ling!

The Madly Mahvelous Scavenger Hunt!

Are we ready for some FUN or what!? This is probably going to be the most fun giveaway I’ve ever had the privilege (and the honor) of being a part of. Many of The Mad Mad Makers have teamed up to offer you lots of different ways to win!

Way to win #1: The Grand Prize is 23, I said it, TWENTY THREE prizes going to one winner. That’s a whole lot of Mad Mad Maker love, right there! There are patterns (and the Mad Mad Makers make up some of the most brilliant pattern designers on the web today in my humble opinion) and there are store credits (it’s not all crochet items either! The Mad Mad Makers sew, clay work, make soap… there are a lot of different options here as well, even for the avid crocheter.) Enter to win the grand prize on the Mad Mad Makers Madly Mahvelous Scavenger Hunt Blog on the Rafflecopter Widget (Or just check out the Rafflecopter widget below, it’s the same entry!)

Ways to win #2-24: 7 days of giveaways! Each of the 23 Mad Mad Makers is holding their own day and time slot and each is doing something different. You can stay tuned to the Mad Mad Makers Blog, Mad Mad Makers Facebook page, the Mad Mad Makers Google+ page, the Mad Mad Makers Twitter Feed, or the Mad Mad Makers Pinterest page for updates on who is doing what and when.

KEEP WATCHING ON Wednesday, September 3rd FOR MY GIVEAWAY!
