sew, mama, sew! giveaway day

crochet recycled vase

* * * * * Congratulations to the giveaway winner Shana Putnam! * * * * *

Sew, Mama, Sew! Giveaway Day is one of my favorite times of year. I love participating: both in the giving away part and the entering for giveaways part.

If you are new to my blog, let me tell you a little bit about this vase. I love to use recycled goods in my work. I’ve made a few of these. The plastic container has been rescued from my very own recycle bin. The yarn is from the big spool of wool. I talk about it a lot. It’s a big spool.

You don’t have to do anything fancy to enter my giveaway — just leave a comment on this post. I’d love it if you follow my rss feed or follow me over on my facebook page. I’d also love to hear about your handmade holiday plans. Are you making anything special?

Don’t forget to visit Sew, Mama, Sew! for tons of other great giveaways. (They’ll be posted on Monday morning.)

Mine will close Midnight, Central Time, December 17th. I’ll ship internationally, so everyone is welcome to enter!

  1. EEK! I had so many plans for making gifts but it doesn’t look like that is going to happen. Can we really be only 11 days until Christmas?!? What happened to September and all the months following?!?

  2. Hi! Thanks for the giveaway :) This vase is so gorgeous & innovative! As form my handmade holiday plans… I am designing and creating Christmas ornaments with my middle school students I teach. We are going to have such a blast!

  3. Beautiful! I will learn to crochet. This year I have been busy knitting ornaments and making reusable gift bags.
    Thanks!

  4. Hi ! very original vase, I must say !
    During the holiday, I plan to knit and sew two dolls with my children watching these new friends being created… If my kids make it possible, of course !

  5. Lovely! Thank you for sharing. :)

    The big spool of wool is really pretty awesome. How big around is it? It’s kind of hard to tell from the photo, but now I’m curious…

  6. We made our Christmas tree this year from driftwood collected from the beach. Have a look on my blog if you get a chance!

    Love your giveaway.

  12. Wow, that wool on a spool is definitely something. While I have bought home some cones from the thrift store, I have never seen anything quite that impressive. I am looking forward to reading what else youmight come up with!

  13. i am a making some fabric garlands for christmas this year…some fabric covered button magnets, and some fabric/flower headbands. thanks for a chance at your vase, im always looking for more ways to recycle in my craft as well.

  14. i love the creativity you put into recycling things and making lots of beautiful stuff!
    thank you for your giveaway.
    please take the time to head over to my blog to participate in my giveaway too. i didn’t make it to the list in time and it’s something small, but there’s still plenty of time and there are so few participants that you might actually have a chance to win something :)
