My Birthday Bash Giveaway - Prize 1 - Custom Recycled Wool Soaker

Prize # 1 up for grabs is a custom recycled wool soaker valued at $16.  You can choose from any in-stock wool sweater, or request a certain colour that I can shop for at the thrift store, or if you're local you can provide a wool sweater of your own.   I will gladly add an applique to the bum if desired, using in-stock wool scraps.  Waistband and leg cuffs will be made of recycled wool, or you can upgrade to natural coloured interlock for $6.  I will pay for shipping (lettermail within Canada, light packet to USA).



To enter:
 1. You must be a fan of my facebook page: click here to like my Facebook page
 2.  Leave one comment below telling me your name, email address and what size/colour soaker you would choose if you won.  If you do not leave your name, or if your username in the comment section is unidentifiable as you on my Facebook page then your entry will not count.  I must be able to verify that you are a fan of my Facebook page.
3.  If you are a new fan and someone has referred you to my Facebook page and giveaway, please also leave THEIR name in your comment (eg. Suzie Q referred me) so that they get their bonus entries.

Don't forget that new referrals get you additional entries into the giveaway!

This giveaway is open to residents of Canada and the USA, and is not affiliated in any way with Facebook.

A winner will be chose via Random.org after June 3rd and will be contacted via email as notification of winning.  Winners will not be posted on Facebook until they have first received notice via email.

Good luck!
-Allison

    I would love another wool soaker! I would like a boy colour, but I'm not fussy as to *what* boy colour, and probably about a medium, maybe on the larger end of medium? Thanks for doing this!

Happy New Year, Social Media and other news

Most of my social media presence has been on Facebook but I've recently branched out to Instagram. You can follow me there! Allison on Instagram   I realize that not everyone uses social media but they still want to be able to order necktie clutches from me. Well now anyone who can access the internet can see my current stock of available neckties to choose from! Allison's Flickr Photostream If you click on the link above it will take you to my Flickr account which is basically an image hosting site. I will update this album at the same time that I update my Facebook album with new neckties. If you are interested in ordering a necktie clutch from me just shoot me an email to: allisonbarnescollection@gmail.com  and let me know which necktie you would like (copy and paste the image to make it easy for me to find the correct necktie). OR you can send me a necktie to transform into a necktie clutch. Best wishes and Happy New Year! -Allison
