Pay It Forward

This is a two part blog all about Pay It Forward..... for those of you that haven't heard of it it's a lovely way of sending and receiving a little handmade goodness through the post from some of the wonderfully creative and talented people here in blogland, there will be a chance for you to enter my latest Pay It Forward at the end of this post :)

Part 1
Back in January I blogged about the lovely gifts that I received as part of  Heather's (The Patchwork Heart) Pay It Forward, I then continued this on by picking three people to receive some handmade loveliness from me....it was supposed to be three small gifts but I chose to make one big gift in the form of a bag for each of these lovely ladies.
I sent this bag to Kimberley (Creative Chaos)

and this one to Emma (My Red Wellies)


and finally this one to Claire (Cute and Cosy)


Part 2

At the same time as entering Heather's pay it forward I also entered Vintage Vicki's one too and was lucky to be picked to receive some gifts. Here is what Vicki sent me in my favourite colours of green and purple....
 some delicious chocolate
 a pretty organza bag filled with....
 green thread, buttons and more chocolate
 some gorgeous crocheted bunting
 
 a super cute felt owl
 and a darling crocheted flower brooch.

so now here is your chance to take part in the Pay It Forward the rules are nice and simple

 I need to find three bloggers who would like a handmade gift from me
 and who are prepared to do the same, and I have 365 days in which to do it.
If that appeals to you just leave a comment on this post telling me your favourite colours.
The closing date will be 16th April
and if more than three people are interested, names will be drawn from a hat.
I don't know what I'm going to make yet but I can guarantee you'll like the colours
and I promise it won't take me a year!

So if you would like to take part and continue on the Pay It Forward please leave a comment below and don't forget to let me know your favourite colours!!!

  4. When I started to read this post I thought I wouldn't be able to enter because I'm going to be pretty busy with moving house over the next month or so, but when I saw that there was a whole year in which to do it, I thought, well, why not. So please put my name in the hat, my favourite colour is blue. Thankyou xx
