The big give away

Using a random number generator I selected my two winners for the "please come like my Facebook page" give away.

My Winners are Anderia Hu, and Sara Carmolingo Bloomfield.

It was really fun to type in the names from Facebook into a spreadsheet. it was fun because I was amazed at who of my friends actually liked my art page (my husband was not on that list), and all the people I do not actually know.

And then I learned that as a fan page, I cannot actually send messages to individuals, and since one of the winners isn't someone I know, I have to find her and send a message via my profile. So this is cool, I get to make a new friend!

If you haven't already liked my fan page, please do. I will have more give aways:

And if you think you have liked the page, do me a favor and double check. I have friends who helped me out and promoted my give away, but they themselves never clicked that "like" button.

Facebook give away

Hi my name is Laura, I'm an artist and this is my pitiful plea to increase my fans on my Facebook page. On my Laura Medeiros-Art stuff fb page you will witness my trials and tribulations, and experimentations, and successes with my jewelry art. I use art clays: polymer clay and metal clays to make sculptural art jewelry.  I am not above transparent ploys such as bribery to increase my views. As a matter of fact I embrace bribery, but instead we will call it a "promotional give away".

So go over to my Facebook page (pleeeezzz): http://www.facebook.com/pages/Laura-Medeiros-Art-stuff/147377941945717 and like it.

On August 1, 2012 I will throw all the names of my "fans" into a hat and pull two winners.

I have two wonderful promotional giveaways:



The steampunk give away: a copper metal clay heart and gear pendant, and a tentacle pendant from polymerclay in pink and green with peachy colored suckers



Under the Sea give away: A copper pendant featuring a sea horse and an olivine cubic zirconia, and an acorn fairy house for a beach loving fairy.

One World One Heart, last day

Today is the last day of One World One Heart.
I want to thank everyone for visiting my blog. I am amazed at how many people actually did!
I will draw numbers out of a hat (your number is the order that you posted your comment) and post here again tomorrow.

One World One Heart

For those of you you found me via OWOH: WELCOME!
My name is Laura, and I am an eclectic crafter. Or rather, I attempt to be one. I share my crafting misadventures and what I am currently up to here. Please poke around, and leave a comment. Remember to leave your blog address!

For those of you who are not familiar with On World One Heart:
One World One Heart

One World One Heart is a worldwide event for bloggers only. It gives all those who blog a chance to meet and mingle and form connections with those they may not have otherwise met from all over the world. In the past 4 years this event has grown to over 1,000 participants with lasting friendships (and even one love connection) formed along the way. Think of it as a GIGANTIC open house allowing you to travel without ever leaving your home........going from blog to blog(in various countries) seeing the wonder each one has created and meeting all the fabulous people behind those blogs. As a bonus each blogger participant will offer up a "door prize or prizes"....just for dropping by, saying hello and seeing their world. It's really that easy.

This looks like fun so I am participating! From Jan 31 to Feb 17 2011.

My "door prize goodie" is a fairy door.

A lovely unique door for an indoor fairy. It can only be open by the fairy it belongs to.

Hey I bet I could find a use for them.
I also like the method of getting the prize. Networking the blog post.

Give aways give aways give aways

So, one of the things that is supposed to drive or lure traffic to your blog, and thus expose you, your work/product is give aways.

What does one give away on a craft blog, especially a selfish craft blog like this one?

Would you, my 14 followers be interested in back issue crafting magazines, such as Step-by- Wire jewelry, or Bead and Button?
Or would you rather it be random hand made goodies? Or both?

Let me know what you think in the comments, pleeeezzzzzzz
