Birthday Contest!!!


My birthday is Sunday and I want you all to celebrate with me!

It's my birthday and I'm giving YOU the gift! Well, I'm giving the winner(s) a gift. So what do you need to do to enter? And what do you win?

Well if you haven't guessed from the above collage, you'll win the Scrabble Tile Pendant of your choice. There will be one winner for every 100 entries!
How to Enter:
  1. Follow my blog. (See all the little pictures of people on the right under the ads? Click "Follow." Leave a comment here letting me know you're following my blog. (Must be a public follower.) Get one entry.
  2. Follow me on Twitter. Tweet this: "Enter to win JL Yarnworks' Scrabble Tile Pendant Giveaway! http://bit.ly/5tuP4D ." Leave a comment here letting me know you've done this. Get one entry.
  3. Become one of my Facebook Fans! Leave a comment here letting me know you've become a fan. Get one entry.
  4. Blog about this contest, linking back to this blog post. Leave a comment here with a link to your blog. Get TWO entries!

Yep, that's 5 potential entries per person. If every entrant gets 5 entries, then everyone will have a 1 in 20 chance of winning a pendant! Those odds are pretty good, don't you think?

Monday morning (January 11th, 2010), whenever I get to the computer, I'll tally up the entries based on the comments on this blog post. If you don't leave a comment, your entry will NOT count! For every 100 entries, I will let the random number generator choose one winner. (If there are 158 entries, there will be one winner; if there are 320 entries, there will be 3 winners.) I will post the winners here and contact them (be sure I can reach you through Twitter, Facebook, or leave your email!). Winners get to choose which Scrabble Tile Pendant they want from the above choices. Unfortunately, I will not be able to do custom letter choices for the purposes of this contest. Sorry! Scrabble Tile Pendants come on a length of ribbon and can be transferred to your favorite cord or necklace. They will ship to the winners for free. If too many winners want the same pendant, or if I'm sold out of the winner's chosen pendant on Monday, winners will be allowed to either choose a different pendant OR wait up to 2 weeks for new pendants to be made.

Good luck to you all!

**If your'e observant, you'll notice that not all Scrabble Tile Pendant options are currently available in my store. I'll be adding more all weekend. Want one that's not yet available in the store? Just contact me!**
