saying thanks with a GIVEAWAY

I wanted to say thank you so much for all your sweet comments about my story in the Deseret News. I have the best support system! To say thanks, I'd love to share with you one of my favorite things and your chance to win an AMAZING giveaway (valued at $80).

Many of you asked about this jewelry organizer that you noticed in my closet.  It is actually a scrapbook organizer made by Clip It Up.  I originally used it for my scrapbook supplies, then my ribbon and recently decided to use it for my jewelry.  My earrings were getting too big and bulky to fit in my ice cube trays.   I've had this product for a few years and have loved it.  I highly recommend getting one for yourself.  

Now onto the exciting news...

Clip it Up has another super amazing product that has now been added to my Christmas wish list {wink.  wink.  it would work so perfect in my gift closet or in my office}.  It is this Ribbon Organizer.

My favorite part, besides the ribbon organization is that there is a place for scissors on both sides.  Pure genius.  I may be a little biased because Renee, the owner and creator of Clip it Up, is family.  So you be the judge.  Isn't this amazing?

Renee is being so generous and offering to give one of these away to YOU.  If you'd like a chance to win one, here is what you need to do:

1.  Go to Simply Renee Inc's blog and become a follower.  You won't be disappointed.  They have a team of designers who share fabulous ideas.  Check out the most recent post about how to make earrings using this amazing ribbon organizer.  Come back to my blog and leave a comment telling me that you became a follower.

2.  If you'd like a second entry into the contest.  Go to Deseret News and leave a comment on my story {I'm trying to make them believe I'm good stuff so they will allow me to write more stories.  Yes, I'm bribing you to be a fan.}  Come back to my blog and comment that you left a comment on my story (did you get that?)

3.  If you'd like a third entry.  Become a follower of my blog.

Three easy options to win an $80 prize.  To check out all the details of the ribbon organizer go here.  The deadline to enter is Thursday at midnight.  The Winner will be announced Friday morning.
