Winners Announced!

Random.org picked my giveaway winner! I really hope my new followers will stick around, I have 30 days of Blogging to finish, and a Sugar cookie adventure to post. Without further ado our winner is number 22!

Judi is number 22!! She said:

"I tweeted your giveaway"


Thank you so much for playing along I really enjoyed it! Now I need to go announce the Facebook winners and the design blog winners! Merry Christmas!


I will be emailing later today, I am getting really poor internet connection, as soon as I am home I will email everyone for their information!

Sew Mama Sew Giveaway!!

Today I am linking up with a giveaway!!! You can win one of my holiday hats! The winner gets to choose, either two kids sized, or one adult sized. These will be made to order! I was initially going to do the Christmas hat, but I don't want to limit it to a holiday some don't celebrate. So here are your options:

Christmas:

Valentines:

Halloween:

Also some I have made, but didn't take pictures of before giving them away:
Saint Patrick's Day - White hat with green lining and pompom with green shamrock
Christmas - Green hat with red lining and pompom (elf)
Easter - Like the Halloween hat, but with three pastel colors instead

So here is how you can enter:

1. Tell me about your favorite holiday and why.
2. Become a follower of my blog.
3. Tweet specifically about my giveaway using @HerHouseDesigns or #HerHouseDesigns
4. Become a follower on Facebook.

Make a comment for each one you complete!

Also if you are a Facebook Fan I will do a whole other drawing for a hat out of my fans. It gets better! For each increment of fifty I reach on Facebook I will draw an additional winner! So one winner here, one winner on Facebook, and say I hit 100 likes on Facebook that will be two Facebook winners! The more you share the more winners!

Disclaimers: If you are a no reply blogger, I will not be able to reach you, so I will pick someone else to win. Sorry! Please leave your email to avoid missing out! Also these hats may not reach you by Christmas depending on how many need to be made, and where you live. I will try my hardest to get them to you by then, but just in case they don't.

Last but definitely not least check out my design page for a freebie and giveaway!!

This giveaway will last through the 17th, and a winner will be announced on the 18th!
