A Happy $150 Giveaway from Novica

By 02/23/2011January 23rd, 2017134 Comments

I’m hosting a giveaway from Novica! The lucky winner will recieve $150 of merchandise and you can choose from their long list of wonderful things!  Here’s what I would buy:

Silver filigree earrings, ‘Four Leaf Clover’ $87.96 (These would look good on my ears 🙂

$58.99 – Beaded Zigzag rattan basket; (This would look good in my bathroom)
NOVICA is one of the leading fair trade artisan websites. They work with National Geographic to give talented artisans around the world a place to express their artistic talents and provide access to the world market. And they have thousands of top fair trade corporate gifts and home decor items on their website.
All you have to do is become a follower of my blog (in the upper right hand of my sidebar) and post a comment below! Keep in mind, the cost of shipping must be included in the $150. I’ll announce the winner on Friday!
Who else is going to the Design Bloggers Conference next Monday?  I’ll be there Sunday by noon to get in a little shopping!
At the Sofitel LA 
Can’t wait to meet you!
If you would like your Home to fill you with happiness every time you walk in, contact me.

    Awesome! But the top of the right column has:

    Did you mean "Follow" on Twitter or "Friend on Facebook, which are the top-most two where you can "follow" someone or did you mean "Subscribe via e-mail"? That's well below the fold on the sidebar?
