Something for the weekend . . .

It's Friday {and the start of a long weekend here in the UK},

 the sun is shining,

 the birds are chirping, 

 the temps are on the way up, 

 and my little blog has reached the 200 followers milestone . . .

. . . just the perfect excuse for a wee giveaway, don't you think ? 

Firstly a BIG thanks to all you lovely peeps who follow along on my little crafty adventures.  

Your sweet comments delight and encourage me, and in turn, all your lovely blogs inspire me to greater crafty heights : -)

Right, so, how would you like to add one of these lovely books* to your shelf ?

First up,

one for all you crocheters out there . . .

Hip Crochet

by Natalie Clegg

 ". . .includes fun crochet projects to give your home a touch of colour, with patterns to suit all tastes and levels of ability. "

 and

a little crocheted hook holder 
 {just like this one that I posted about here } which I'll make especially for the lucky winner in the colour of your choice.

This book is filled with some really fun & fab projects . . .

OR

if you're not much into crochet, then how about this lot ?

Blogging for Bliss
