Giveaway #66: Simply Sublime Gifts
Giveaway #66 is now closed. But why not check out Giveaway #67? Hi again, Today marks the first day of summer birthday season for me – I have no fewer than eight friends and family members with birthdays in the next month! So I was pretty excited to see the copy of
Simply Sublime Gifts that arrived from
Potter Craft.
When you're dealing with a bevy of birthdays it's hard to balance wanting to make something handmade for each person with the inevitable time pressures that crop up (and then there are the competing interests at this time of year, things like eating ice cream and going to the beach...), so the idea behind
Simply Sublime Gifts – the subtitle of which is "High-Style, Low-Sew Projects to Make in a Snap" – really appealed to me. There's something in here for every gift-giving occasion, from housewarmings to baby showers to birthdays to "just because," and the stylish projects would be easy to adapt to different tastes. And the simple projects and clear instructions mean that this would be a great book for your tween or teen to use, too.
For your chance to win, leave a comment on this post telling me when your busiest month for birthdays is, and your best tip for coping. Do you mass-produce presents? Do you keep a stash of cupcakes in the freezer? It's going to be crazy around here this August, and I could use all the tips I can get! Comments will be accepted until
11:59 p.m. on Sunday, August 8, and I'll post a winner here on
Monday, August 9. Good luck!
