Blog Candy


BLOG CANDY 
to be drawn 2nd Sept
I really appreciate the many visitors to my blog, especially those who leave a comment and all the lovely followers who are interested enough to keep an eye on my posts. I had intended to offer some blog candy when my hits counter reached 88,888 but I was so busy that missed the magic moment.
I have got to know so many lovely crafters and made lasting friendships via my blog and I've even been lucky to meet up with quite a few these very special people. 
To say a big "Thank You" to every one who visits and leaves comments I'm offering some blog candy and, since I've had a mega clean up, I have found quite a few items surplus to requirements and I'll even add a few extras to those in the photo.
Here's the stash on offer so far!
I will also make a special handcrafted gift for a couple of winners which can be chosen from several items such as, (below) a hand painted art apron, a decorated key chain, handbag bling, a crochet bag decoration etc. I'll discuss preferences with the winners.
To qualify 
Please leave me a comment stating you'd like to be included.
I always make you work for my blog candy so.......just for a bit of fun we want your alter ego...
 tell me (and Blogland) what your name would be if you were a pole dancer, created by giving the name of your pet (past or present) and your maternal grandmother's maiden surname. It will gain you an extra entry in the draw!
Mine therefore would be Ziggy Boguski !!!
Add the first picture to your blog, leaving a link and mention my candy offer.
Be a follower, but don't sign up unless you are really interested as it would be unfair to take the chance away from others who are regulars, as they are the people I want to thank. 
The draw will be made on Sunday 2nd September.
Have some fun reading these alter ego names from those already entered... 
Brighton Rosebush, Rusty Rose, Jezebel, Winker Heuser, Bimbo Redfern, Snicker VanNatter, Mingo Jahn,

I had a giggle with your pole dancing name and how to work it out. I actually know girls who do pole dancing for a living, must make a note to talk to them about this method. LOL Ok just for fun mine would be Rusty Rose, Rusty was my childhood dog and Rose my mothers maiden name. Sounds good ha, I rekon I could use mine what about you in the professional world of pole dancers LOL

I like fun, thanks for throwing this one into the weekly schedule.

Some of those names are hilarious. Mine would be Bruno Lobo. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

Dotty Jo said...

You are so funny Jo! I could either be Custard Sorrell, Hammy Sorrell, Squeaky Sorrell (liking that one), Nibbles Sorrell (also sounds good) or Pip Sorrell - which sounds even better if you break Sorrell as So-rrell and say it with a French accent! Thanks for a chance to win some goodies, especially something actutally made by the amazingly talented Ziggy Boguski! LOL, Jo x
