Giveaways and the LAST week of Planting Chums :: Four FUN Facts

April 29, 2010

It's the last week of Planting Chums. I can't believe there's already been (almost) a month of them! Since it is the last one, I wanted to make it super fun. Sooo...it's gonna be just four fun facts about you, and there are a lotta giveaways.

For the giveaways...(scroll down for the Planting Chums link up)

First off, we've got this super gorgeous Dahlia Necklace Yellow by Offbeet. I know. Uber cute, right? There were several different colors for this necklace, but I really love that yellow. Vivid, cheery, bright and SUMMERY. Says it all there. Offbeet has some seriously cute jewelry...I would definitely check her shop out!

Then another necklace, Continents, by ThisMuchLove. She's a sweet lady who incorporates her faith into her jewelry (look at the shape of that necklace? Is that not creative?) I love the different stones that shes for her jewelry...yet she still ties it all together. A simply gorgeous necklace. Again...there's some yellow in there (along with green and blue--some of my favorite color combos.) so it's another summery necklace for you! :-)

____________________

Okay. I fell in love with this hat. I know that it's nearing summer, but seriously...come winter time, this is something I would be wearing. Quirky, cute and it looks soooo warm. Hmm...in fact...be a rebel and wear it in the summer! HA! The therosenhoffs are giving this super cute hat away...check out their shop, they've got some more cute hats! (and some awesome photography). Oh, and Charlotte from therosenhoffs has an aaamaaazing blog on blogger. Very inspiring and such a cute layout. Check it out here!

Then, Joom is offering readers any mini pillow from his/her shop. Aren't these super cute?! (seems like I'm using the word "cute" a lot lately...but it's definitely needed to describe all of this etsy stuff!) The floral and bird patterns on the pillows are just darling, and I love the colors. Very, very vivid. And you know that I love vivid. (psst...the blue one's my favorite. In case anyone wanted to get me one. Y'know...Lol. ^_^) Aren't they just so fun? I really want to get a bunch of them and throw them all over my bed. Seriously, check out Joom's shop--definitely worth it.

Katie Daisy at thewheatfield is giving away any 8.5" x 11" print from her shop. Okay...if anyone wants to get me one of these, I'd be happy too. The lettering, colors and graphics are just incredible! Inspiring, dreamy and whimsical...her prints are what I would be hanging on my walls, let me tell you. Look at that one on the far left. Isn't that LIVE lettering just super awesome? Uhhh....oh, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.

____________________

Skeldesign is giving away a "what's the buzz" notepads. Skeldesign's store is just a fun, funky place to shop at for all sorts of stuff, such as...
A bright modern paper goods studio specializing in notepads, greeting cards, note cards, invitations, thank yous, personalized items, gift tags, t-shirts and so much more! (taken from the etsy shop)
Really though? I'd love to put this cute notepad up. What's the buzz with YOU?

____________________

Lolasroom is giving away any 8x8 print from her store. I have a few words for her photography...I'm in love with it. The soft colors and vintage look are incredible..really, her stuff is so gorgeous and I wouldn't mind any of it either. Some of my favorite pictures are her sky ones, and I love those spools of thread. The ordinary seen as beautiful...that's what I'm talking about!

___________________

Colorido Beaded Hoop Earrings by Zeijlon. Zeijlon has some really gorgeous jewelry, but I especially love these earrings because of the colors. Soft and cheery. (oops! I typed CHERRY at first...well...they are a little red. Hee hee...) Aren't they simply fab? Loooove them. These would be so cute to wear--definitely. All of her jewelry is really insane in the level of quality and detail that goes into it all. Simply mah'velous.

____________________

Okay. Aren't these just fun?! I thought that it would be fun to give these away...because they're so quirky! And I do like quirky! The black and white is so striking and, well, let's face it...that pattern is so fun. Wouldn't it be cute to have them? Really--they'd look so adorable tossed on a couch or bed. Looove them. tilly2shoes is giving them away...and aren't you glad? :-)

____________________

And lastly, Lilybaubles is giving away this Keep Calm Carry on Glass Soldered Charm. This is so cute and so vintage. As a font junkie, I love the font used for the Keep Calm etc...All of her charms are adorable and I'm so glad I was able to give this away. It's probably my absolute favorite out of her shop. I don't know about you, but I'd be wearing this on a chain for a necklace!




Now for Planting Chums, week four...all you have to do is put four, random, fun facts up about yourself, your family, etc. Silly, quirky, funny...I'm sure we'd love to hear about them! :-)

So here are my four fun facts:

1. I can do the splits. I can. Honest. Don't believe me...check out these pics!

It's taken me soooooooooo long to get there though. But I'm so glad I can. Although...I'll admit...it's only on my right side. I'm THIS close to being able to do it on my left.

2. I stepped on a pin tonight. Alright. So my dad was on a business trip and he got home tonight so I was tidying up a bit. Well, one of my mom's dreaded adorable (no, really. They're super, super cute) pincushions was on the floor. I smartly stupidly decided to pick it up with my foot (considering I had a couple more in my hands). Big. Mistake. I would advise you to never do it. Very painful. I literally screamed. 

3. I have never ever, ever, liked macaroni and cheese. I know. I'm weird. Not even as a baby...to me, it's double yucko. Yet I like noodles with butter and Parmesan. o.O

4. (okay...so it's not about me...but this picture is too cute not to share)We got dairy queen tonight and Eli decided to make a "HUZZAH!" sound and do this.
 

It was a small vanilla dip cone...not a kid cone. And I got to help him with it (aka, eat off most of the chocolate and lick some of the icecream so it didn't drop all over him. Hee hee...pros to being a big sister there, baby!) Admit it. I've got some cute sibs. :-)


To be entered in the giveaways, all you have to do is write a post with four fun facts about yourself, and link up below. Simple, easy and fun. 
Get quirky, friends! ;-)

35 Replies:

  1. Cool! I am definitely in love with every single one of those things... :-)
    Nice splits. =D I have never been able to do that - although I've never worked on it either ;-).
    I saw your tweet about the pin-stepping-on - you poor girl! I hate doing that with a vengeance. ugh.
    your brother is adorable - and so's mine. LOL

  2. Hey Hannah,
    First of all, WOW!!! I can't believe how many giveaways there are this week! I kept scrolling down, wondering when they were going to end! I love them all... such cute stuff!! :)

    And your random facts are SO much fun!

    1. You know, a couple of years ago, I was soooo close to being able to do a split. But then one night when I was attempting one, I pulled a muscle in my leg.... and I never tried again. lol! :D

    2. Oh, and I read about your pin incident on Twitter a little while ago. I'm so sorry! As you know, I do lots of sewing, so I've stepped on a few pins and gotten pricked quite a lot. OUCH... definitely no fun!

    3. What... you don't like mac & cheese?! My brother would have a few things to say about that. He *loves* it! :D

    4. And yes, you do have cut sibs! That picture of Eli is adorable.

    Anyway, sorry for this ridiculously long comment. This post is just filled with so much! I'm really excited!! :)

    ~ Love & Blessings,
    Lindsay <3

  7. wow - what beautiful giveaways - again!!! amazing hannah!

    i love how you call yourself a font junkie. my hubby and i are too. we've spent hours going through fonts deciding why or why not we like them. and i think we did this on a friday night. (can you tell we have kids?!) he he!

    1. the splits are very impressive.

    2. ouch!!! i pick things up all the time with my feet because i have super long monkey like toes. i so would've done the very same thing. hope the foot is feeling okay!

    3. i used to completely dislike macaroni and cheese. i barfed it up one time when i was 5 (i still haven't forgotten) and since then it's been an enemy. until.... i moved to the south. they have something here called homemade macaroni and cheese and it is literally amazing. they bake it, use a variety of fresh cheeses and it's simply scrumptious. i think it could change your mind like it did mine. : )

    4. eli is too presh!!! i need to start doing that when i get ice cream! yummmm!

    hugs to you hannah!!! have a wonderful weekend with your fam and i hope that samuel is feeling better!

  8. No!!! You got me to look at you doing the splits again!!! I saw the text, and I was like, "Huh. A picture." *scroll down*... NO!!! XD And Mac&Cheese? I only like it from, like, my gramma, and two different restaurants.

    ReplyDelete

  10. Wow, I love this blog, and I'm so excited about the giveaways (just entered). I love most of the stuff!

    But I cannot do splits. Nada. Nope.
    If you read my four fun facts post, then I mentioned how clumsy I am. Yes, clumsy/uncoordinated = no splits for me. :(

    :) Oh well. XD

  19. I can't do a split and I don't want to because I am afraid I will pull a muscle in my leg. I hate that!

    I advise avoiding stepping on pins too. Oh the pain. :(

    I am a mac'n'cheese-aholic. I love it so darn much I try to work into as many suppers as my mom and sister will allow.

    Yes your brother is adorable! That was too cute! :)

  20. Dear Hannah, I know you're feakin' busy right now and that I probably doesn't help me asking blog design questions these *very* minute, but I was wondering how you did your header/menu things. B/c I saved your Vivid Design Stuido header beacus I *absolutely* LOVED it and I noticed you had already put the text of the links on it! How on earth do you DO that?! :) You can answer back whenever it's convient (*hopefully* that word is spelt right!) :)

    Love bunches,
    Awel

    p.s. just so you *don't* think I'm cheating, I was planning on tacking on the word Studio to my title so I *didn't* steal that from you! =))

    Love,
    Brianna

  23. Here's my randomness.....
    *I followed your Mom's Blog Frog to get here.
    *I paid my way through college by balloon twisting in restaurants and at parties-I ended up training new twisters.
    *I grew up on a ranch. I don't like "farm" animals. At all. Unless they are dinner.
    *I love horror movies. Especially "religious" themes (Stigmata, Constantine, Seventh Sign...) and cheesy 80's flicks.

    Can I play now? ;-)

    Okay,

    #1. Onion rings. Enough said.

    #2. Shoes? Who needs 'em. I can walk ANYWHERE without those bad boys. (well, actually, not anymore.)

    #3. There was once this commercial that said..."This commercial only takes 60 seconds to run." And then it went on to advertise. Well, call me a nerd, but I actually counted those 60 seconds. :) Call it wasted time, but I call it,.....well yeah, actually, that's pretty much what it was.

    4. I HATE milk...but I LOVE vanilla ice cream, yogurt, and sweet rice (if you know what that is, hehe)

    I'm I entered?
    Sweet.

  29. can I join you? I am new follower here. My 4 are not very funny, but here they are:
    1. As a student I have reached excellent results in majority of subjects, but there was a problem for me - physical education. I still feel the shame and handicap of this.
    2. I do not have a driving license because of I do not trust that I am able to drive my car on the road between two lines. :-) (it is caused by point 1.)
    3. I like to sing, just I have a bit low voice so I always had to sing alt from my childhood - and i always loved it!
    4. I sleep with ear plugs

  30. Hey girl, I'm so sorry I haven't done Planting Chums! The past weeks have been so busy and this one was an emotional/tragic one.

    I will probably do this weeks Planting Chums in a bit!

    Sorry again!!!

    P.S. LOVE Vivid Design Studio, and it is so awesome that you can do splits! I used to be able to do them, but then I well....quit gymnastics when I was 8.

    Have a great week! =)

  31. I WISH I could do the splits. I think I would get halfway down and then cry, hahahaha.

    Hmmmm... 4 facts. Let's see....

    1. The only food in this world that I really, really can't stand is Brussel's Sprouts. Sure there are other things that I don't prefer, but Brussels Sprouts is the only thing that I won't even eat if it's the only thing offered.

    2. I suck at math. BIG time!

    3. I used to be into poetry when I was in high school. Some of my poems back then were published in books.

    4. I haven't vomited in over 16 years, and now I am kind of scared to. I have built it up in my head to be some huge ordeal, lol.
