giveaway!

as promised, i am hosting my very first giveaway here on the blog in honor of my reaching 100 fabulous followers!  

when i started thinking about what i wanted to give, i wanted it to reflect myself, my blog, and what my readers would want.  i finally settled on giving the winner a choice between a year subscription to either martha stewart living or real simple, two magazines i love and both of which serve up a whole lot of inspiration in my life. 

after the winner is selected, i will contact that person about which of these 2 magazines he or she would prefer to receive.  if you already have a subscription to both, don't let that stop you from entering - i'll just pay for a 1-year renewal instead!

how to enter:

1.  leave a comment on this post and tell me what magazine or book most inspires 

you in your daily life.  include your email address so i can notify the winner!

2.  tweet about the giveaway (include my twitter - @aspotofwhimsy - in the tweet, 

and then leave another comment right here telling me you did.

3.  become a follower of a spot of whimsy and tell me you did by leaving another comment.  

if you are already a follower, then just comment to tell me that too!

entries close on sunday, january 30, 2011 at 5 p.m. central time.  winner will be selected through a random number generator and will be notified on monday, january 31! 

good luck!

*i'm not receiving anything for hosting this giveaway.  i chose these 2 magazines myself and will be purchasing the subscription for my winner myself.
