Giving of the Green - PIF Giveaway

I am back from our annual trek to York, PA.   We had a great visit with our family there but now it is time to buckle down to work and get ready for the up coming retail season.


To kick it off I am having another giveaway.  Because it is Spring and almost St. Patrick's Day we are giving away the green - beads that is.  All we ask is that the winner find some way to pay it forward.  You can give away what you win, make something with it to give away or find something wonderful of your own to pass on to someone else.  When you do, please let me know and I will blog about it.


Here is what the luck winner will receive:



5 Hanks of green beads



One bag of mixed glass beads
One bag of green floral beads
One bag of green tear drop beads
Two slider frogs with 4 matching beads
One bag of mixed transparent beads



Close up of the cute frogs



Here is what to do to enter.  You will get one entry for each thing you complete.  Do one, do them all, it's up to you.  Just be sure you let me know what you do.
1. Go to any of my web sites then come back and leave a comment here telling my what was your favorite item.  The links are all at the top of this blog page.

2. Sign up for my mailing list on the right -----> over there.

3. Blog about & link to this give away on your blog.

4. Post it on your Facebook or MySpace page.

5. Twitter it, with a link back to this post. - Please limit your tweets to once a day and include @forbesfarm so I get them.

I will pick the winner randomly by using radom.org.  on St. Patrick's Day - March 17th.   Good luck!
