*a couple of bonus items that I'm throwing in*
A pair of my handmade bobby pins from my Etsy shop: Plenty of Pins is one extra item!!

I loved hearing about which product(s) you were most looking forward to using, if you won the 'box of beauty goodies'! Thank you for all of your lovely comments & tweets and for ALL of the follows via the blog, Facebook, Twitter, my YouTube channel, & Pinterest

I am thrilled to have over 50 blog followers now, almost 50 Facebook followers & I just hit 100 followers on Twitter last night! :D

Alright, so first off, let me explain...I know that there are 'random number generators' out there and that some online tool could have easily taken all of the entries and popped out a name in a few seconds (I'm sure I may even end up using one of them at some point down the road). And you can call me strange or crazy, but sometimes I just have to break away from technology and do things my own way. ENTER, the old-fashioned 'name (or entrie(s) in this case) in a bowl' method. No, I'm not kidding...after 11:59pm hit last night, I wrote out each name/entrie(s) on slips of paper, put them all in a bowl/vase and picked one. Time consuming...yes (well, not really...probably took me about 15 minutes). Kinda fun...yes. :) So if a person had 5 entries, his/her name was written on 5 different slips of paper to be entered into the giveaway.

  AND...THE WINNER IS:

Cynthia W. had 5 entries & was most excited to try the Aveda Hand Relief (girl, it's the BEST)

Congratulations Cynthia!!!

Again, THANK YOU to all that entered, consider trying any or all of the products I offered in the giveaway - they are some of my favorites & be on the lookout for another giveaway sometime soon.
