hehe, did that get your attention?
So no, I don't have a rash.
BUT.......
I have had a rash of giveaways here at sewtakeahike lately. And here is one more.
This is the deal. Tyler over at simply desk, a part of csn, contacted me and graciously offered TWO of these oh so sweet Tiffany snail accent lamps
for a giveaway to the readers here at sewtakeahike. Nice huh?
So I'm sure you know the drill, you get extra entries if you accept my bribes! (And so sorry to make you guys jump through hoops by leaving separate comments, but it'll just make it all so much easier in the end.) You have FOUR chances to enter.
- leave me a comment on this post telling me hello AND where you'd put the little feller in your home (or if you'd give it away? anyone, anyone?) for one entry.
- follow me by becoming a member through google friend connect (the link for this on my sidebar under my etsy widget, and I've paved the way and have signed up to follow me, yay! And it won't hurt my feelers if you call me a dork after telling you all that!) for a second entry and then MAKE SURE you come back and leave another comment telling me so.
- post about this giveaway on your blog (and feel free to grab that cute little snail-man pic if you like) for a third entry and then MAKE SURE you come back and leave another comment telling me so.
- add me to your blogroll on your blog ****if sewtakeahike is already there, see important note below in green and if your adding it now, see important note below in green*** and then MAKE SURE you come back and leave another comment telling me so.
Entries are welcome until next Monday, August 10th at 1pm MST when I will use the random number generator to pick two winners.
And just so you know, I'm not getting paid from csn in any way, nor have I ever shopped there. buuuuuuuuuuuut, that might change now that I know they exist!
Alrighty, lets have some fun!!
***OH WAIT! One more important thing!! Just last night, the link to my blog that I've always used and many of you have listed on your blogroll (http://sewtakeahike.typepad.com) quit working! If you have me listed on your blogroll, please update the url to: http://sewtakeahike.typepad.com/sewtakeahike so you don't reach a dead end and think I've gone away. That would be very sad :(.
Typepad has fixed the problem! Yay!
Wow,that is the cutest snail I have seen. He would look just at home in my family room. Happy days.

I love the snail! I'd keep it - it's my Bday this weekend and I'd put it in the living room! I only decorate with things that make me smile and this definately fits the bill!

My hubby is building us a craftsmen style bedroom set. He is almost finished with the two nightstands and this little snail would look perfect sitting on my side of the bed....

You have nice friends to give you a new give away item! This little guy is oh so
cute! Ok...here is the story..
I recently lost my camera in a child related death...the camera not the child...child was the cause... I had at the
begining of this year took on my brother's
children(he had died from cancer and the
year before his wife had died in a car acident due to a drunk driver.) Sooo I
have a fun house, but very full. I feel
guilty to spend money for myself and thus
can not finish my blog or my flickr.
(We mothers tend to be like that dont we..hehe, I know you moms out there are like this too! You know who you are!)
My super sweet friend will be sending me
a camera that she has and thus if I am lucky and win one of these little guys would love to send him along to a super new
home. She has a love of snails and he would
be loved. Thank you for this chance!
Here is her site if you would like to get
to know her. She is a lovely person!

Loads of love,
rane and kids.

I follow you via my blogroll - that's how I'm here, I was concerned about your rash ;)

I think some hydrocortisone cream will help with that rash. :)
Cute snail! I'm not sure if I'd be able to part with him - he'd be cute in my kid's room (Up on a HIGH shelf).
Posted by: amylouwho | 03 August 2009 at 08:08 PM
and yes, i am now your google friend too :)
Posted by: amylouwho | 03 August 2009 at 08:09 PM
and one more. You're on my sidebar, since, like, a millenia ago. :)
Posted by: amylouwho | 03 August 2009 at 08:10 PM
I'd give that cute snail to my animal loving niece. I don't do any "following" 'cause it messes up my google reader and lists the blogs twice. And I've had you linked forever and the link is just fine -- I just checked it!
Posted by: Thimbleanna | 03 August 2009 at 09:41 PM
Love the snail lamp I would put it in my bed room it is so cute.
Posted by: Laurie McIntosh | 04 August 2009 at 05:03 AM
hey there, you've been on my blogroll for ages (i updated it with your new link). if i won the snail lamp i'd put in in the mantlepiece (over the open fire) in our new house, we'll be moving in 2 weeks!!! i'm so excited as i've never had a house before - always apartments so i hope it's more homey! love lyndi *
Posted by: Lyndi | 04 August 2009 at 12:49 PM
So cute! I would love this in my bedroom, on my windowsill!
Posted by: Emma | 04 August 2009 at 02:23 PM
It would have to go in my sewing room, what a happy little little lamp
Posted by: Marjorie | 05 August 2009 at 06:04 AM
Adorable. I'd put this in my daughter's room!
Posted by: sheree | 05 August 2009 at 08:18 AM
you are already on my blogroll...will update the link..I got the error when I clicked it, so will update it!
Posted by: sheree | 05 August 2009 at 08:19 AM
I would probably put him in my kitchen since that is where I spend most of my time. Than way I can enjoy him often.
Posted by: Judy | 05 August 2009 at 06:33 PM
I'm following now
Posted by: Judy | 05 August 2009 at 06:36 PM
I wouldn't give this cutie away, I'd put him as a night light in our pool bath. Very cute and love the colors!
Lisa R.
Posted by: Lisa | 06 August 2009 at 04:54 AM
Hello Penny - if I won this little cutie, he would find a home in my office which definitely needs a night light! It's also where my granddaughter sleeps when she's here at night and she would love it...
Cute giveaway; thanks for posting it.
Posted by: Sarah | 08 August 2009 at 01:11 PM

How cute is that? I would put it in my new living room. Of the new house that I will have someday. After we sell this house and I can move to Wisconsin where my husband is already working. It is a happy light for a happy home which I will have when we sell our house.
Posted by: Ruth B | 08 August 2009 at 11:13 PM
I would give this to my Mom who loves stained glass. He is adorable!
Posted by: Renee E | 09 August 2009 at 06:17 AM
