I haven't had a giveaway on my blog for the longest time... so I thought why not!
I think I am a jack of all trades... but master of none =/
So why not have a giveaway for my favourite two =).
I decree the following to be the rules of the tournament:
- there will be separate draws made on each of the prizes;
- leave a comment on this post to enter the draw(s);
- you can enter the draw for both prizes - when you leave a comment please state whether you're interested in both prizes or just one;
- if you blog about this giveaway on your blog it will entitle you to an additional entry (if this is so, please state "(2)" somewhere in your comment;
- each person is allowed a maximum of 2 entries per prize;
- the draw will be open for entries till 12 midnight on 16 June 2012 (Singapore time), the draw will be done on 17 June 2012;
- each receipient of a prize is strongly encouraged to 'pay it forward' by having a giveaway of their own.
The first up for grabs is... drumroll please...
A pair of spangled, unpolished birch English bobbins.
I spangled them myself with tigertail and crimps. I put a close up shot of the spangles too.
I love this head bead to be frank. It strikes me like a mini crystal ball... like gaze into my crystal ball and you will see pretty fields of flowers =).
The next up for grabs is... more drumrolls please...
A decorated shuttle =) Please note that there is only 1 shuttle up for giveaway. The reason there appear to be two in the photo is because I'm showing both sides of the shuttle. I decoupaged this with Japanese Origami paper. =)

Oh, please, please! Enter me for both! I'll be dusting off my bobbin lace supplies next week when school gets out in an effort to learn a little bit before attending a retreat in the fall. I think my weakness for blinged shuttles is fairly well known. I don't need either, but I'm attracted to both!
I'm off to my blog to let others know of this fabulous giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity!
I have never tried bobbin lace before. I would love to start learning with this pretty pair. Of course, that would be one more obsession to add to the list, I'm sure!!
Love the blog!!
Cheers,
Deborah
Please enter me in the draw for the blinged shuttle. I am attracted to all things that bling, but since I don't know bobbin lace I ask to not be put into that drawing.
I did blog about your giveaway. So please enter me 2 x. (I like when people Pay It Forward. Wouldn't it be great if you started an epidemic!)
Thank you.
Please enter me into the drawing for the tatting shuttle. As for "paying it forward" I don't think I'd do it with a drawing on my blog. With only 9 followers so far, I guess I could give something to all of them!
I'd love the pretty tatting shuttle. Thanks for doing this.
Best, Susie (susiearnholt@writeme.com)
Love the shuttle done up in Origami paper. Please put my name in for it. I don't have a blog, but do a lot of tatting and would love to have such a pretty shuttle to add to my collection.
Both would be great. A girl can have an extra pair of bobbins or a shuttle.
Oh my! BOTH ; )
I enjoy bling shuttles. They are so pretty on my dest + remind me to tat. Pretty pretty bobbins. I have plain bobbins - a spangle pair would be fun.

thank you for hosting this lovely giveaway ; )
Cool! Pick me - I want the lovely shuttle!
I'd like to enter for the gorgeous shuttle, please; the bobbins are very pretty too, but I don't do bobbin lace and just don't dare learn another thread craft or I will have nowhere to live!
Please put my name in for both. I tat the most but I do bobbin lace. I am still in the learing part of bobbin lace. Tatting is much easier.
Please enter me for both. Beautiful. I have recently started with bobbin lace... still learning the ropes.
Please enter me for both drawings. I just stumbled across your site and have been enjoying it! Jstearns@hughes.net
Please include me - I am happy to be in the draw for both the bobbins or the shuttle (I have been bobbin lace making for 22 years and tatting for 10 yrs! :D)
ooh! Please enter me just for the shuttle. I understand your "jack of all trades" feeling -- if you see my blog address you will note that I consider myself a "jill of all trades". :P It can be both empowering and frustrating.
Please enter me in both drawings. I think it is impossible to have too many bobbins or shuttles!
Love the shuttles- they r just so pretty. Thank u for the oppurtunity to win it
Winning either of these would be lovely! (2)
Yes, please, enter me in the draw for the spangley bobbins. And thank you for reminding me about your giveaway! I head meant to post several days ago (in the middle of the night) and got distracted blog-hopping.
Thank you for hosting this FAB giveaway.
