Upcoming 200th Post - Hooked Rug Give-A-Way

I’ve been thinking about having a give-a-way here on my blog and decided that I would do it for my upcoming 200th post. I have enjoyed “blogging” and I know sometimes I may have bored you to tears but hopefully I have given you a few laughs, a few ideas, maybe some inspiration in you’re creating, or even a smile with my “boys” antics! 

I love to hook rugs and do not really have a place for them all. Below is a pic of the rug.  It has spent the last few years rolled away in a tub. It’s a shame to leave rugs rolled away, right? So why not share – hopefully it will find a good home and make someone happy!

A little about the rug - It’s a larger rug and measures approximately 37” x 24”. It’s called “Antique Sampler” and was designed by the Woolen Willow. This was their “block of the month” project a few years back and was a kit where you would get the wool on a monthly basis. I did add some of my own wool here and there. It is mostly hooked in a #8 cut and hooked on linen. The designs in this rug are based on antique rugs and put together as a sampler. So if you like antiques and hooked rugs – this give-a-way is for you! I would like this rug to be used and loved and not rolled up and shoved somewhere. I wouldn’t even mind if you used it on the floor! (Yes, I said the floor – I have many rugs on the floor and actually walk in them! It gives them a nice aged look!)

By leaving me a comment and telling me you wish to be part of the give-a-way then you are agreeing to the following – To do something nice for someone! Yep – a kind of pay it forward – it doesn’t have to be monetary as times are so hard these days – it can be as simple as a smile to brighten someone’s day, helping someone get something off the top shelf at the grocery store, lending a hand, mowing someone’s lawn, I don’t know, the possibilities are endless – I try everyday to do something nice for someone and stay positive and away from negativity. It’s hard some days when you just don’t fee like it or are feeling sorry for yourself, but heck – just a smile can brighten a day, right? Oh and it’s all on you- you don’t even have to tell me what you did unless you want to!

Things to know (Won’t call them rules as I’m not so much a rule follower myself! LOL)

1. Leave me a brief comment so I know you are interested.

2. Must live in the US (this is a large rug and shipping charges will be too high outside the US)

3. If you win, you must supply me with an address and not a PO Box as I will be shipping this FedEx ground.

4. Smile!

I’m not putting a deadline on this give-a-way – but will post the winner on my 200th post. I believe this will be my 188th post – so depending if I “chat” a lot or not much – could be a week, could be two weeks or three!  So you need to check back to see if you won and then contact me with your information!

Enjoy your day!
