Crafty in the Med

I am here to enjoy meeting other bloggers and to share my love of craft ,mostly crochet, my thoughts and my daily happenings here in Alicante,Spain, my adopted country. I belong to a local choir because singing and music makes me happy. Flea markets and book shops are two of my favourite places to be. I read lots......sci´fi/fantasy,buried treasure, and off world adventures. I have a passion for history! I walk and walk and walk for about 10 months per year during the hot months I swim.

Fresh start Giveaway


FRESH START GIVEAWAY

 

Hello to all my blogger friends!!  Do you remember me ???
I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't!! It has taken a long time for me to return to my blog .
In my last post,ages and ages ago I mentioned that I was turning to Facebook to be able to continue as a presence online. In fact I did find facebook much more manageable than my blog time wise.  Although I have to admit I couldn't talk as I used to here...so I missed that. However today I have removed my craft facebook page and have returned here to old faithful, my blog. I won't go into detail why.... except that FB is too greedy for paid advertising and I was fed up with all the obstruction!


                                                                                     

I had promised myself that I would offer my craft and blog friends a giveaway as soon as lock-down had finished here where I live.  


Today is day 1 for my giveaway.



All you have to do to participate in the giveaway is:

1. Leave your comment here on this post indicating you wish to participate and describe why you are drawn to or prefer certain colours.  
You do not have to be a follower if you do not want to be although I would be delighted if you do become one.

This giveaway is open to crafters world wide and beyond (Klingons, Silvan and Middle Earth Elves are welcome to participate too).
  The draw will take place on 31st July.

The Giveaway and the Goodies!! 

 Colour preferences and the choice of colour is vital to crafters!!! Psychology today states that colour preferences are deeply rooted emotional responses that seem to lack any rational basis, yet the powerful influence of color rules our choices in everything from the food we eat and the clothes we wear. In my case I am always drawn to green and orange!! According to Viewzone , people who are drawn to green do so because it stimulates a restful, secure and balanced feeling. Green is regarded as a great harmonizer, capable of creating a balance between positive and negative emotions. The Colour Wheel indicates that orange combines the energy of red and the happiness of yellow. It is associated with joy, sunshine, and the tropics. Orange represents enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, success, encouragement, and stimulation. By now you may be wondering what has this got to do with the giveaway!! It is all involved with the condition to enter the giveaway...nothing complicated I assure you!! As mentioned above post comments here describing why you are drawn to or prefer certain colours.


and now the goodies....   

Well I just couldn't fit anymore on this display! I think there is something for practically everybody!! I have also added as an extra gift my latest RAOCK make (RAOCK = Random act of crochet kindness group).

 



A little of practically everything:buttons and pom-poms, small and tiny. Tassels,buttons,hearts, ribbons,eyes,beads,rings,bells,key-ring clasps,pins,markers and yarn.



The Yarn:4 balls of silky Katia Brisa and 2 balls of Katia Peques;baby soft.
         
 


The contents of the Giveaway parcel will be sanitized before sending! Please take precautions when you receive the parcel set it to one side and do not open for 3 days.   

I now have to get cracking and contact you..........to let you know I am back!!!


so.... best of luck with the giveaway.


Stay safe!


Amanda :-)
