"This event was started in 2007. The original idea behind this giveaway event was to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way. 2007 had roughly 85-90 participants and many connections were made because of it......friendships that are still going strong.
We had a strong showing the first year for sure, and then in 2008 we had just about tripled that number. In 2009 there were 911 participants, to say I was amazed is an understatement. 28 countries were represented in the 2009 event as well."
I participated last year as well ... this year I have two beads to give away (Sorry about the awful pictures it's overcast and grey here today.... nothing like waiting until the last minute to take the pictures!)

Your beads are fabulous - the heart looks good enough to eat, just like a creamsicle (can you tell that I should probably make dinner?). The autumn tree one reminds me of something you would find in faerie forest.

Hi from Australia!
Very nice bead-making! :) I wish I could make beads...but I'm scared that I'd waste a whole lot of glass and make a whole lot of mess!! :)
I've taken a look around your Etsy store... I love your Gumball Machine pendant!! I'm going to have to ask for it for my birthday (if it's still in the store by then...which I somehow doubt..oh well!)..
Anyway...can you please enter me in the drawing for one of your stunning beads? Thanks!
And thank you very much for your generosity!
