I was supposed to be cleaning my studio, and I got the idea to do a little “studio sweep” type giveaway. I’ve purchased such grab bags from My Elements, Shipwreck Dandy Supply and Andrew Thornton, among others, I’m sure. I do love my random, surprise, leftover bits! It helped a little on the cleaning, but more importantly, I get to have a giveaway! Should you choose to enter, here is a glimpse of what you will receive that got swept up off my bead table.
You can see some of what is in the bags, but I will tell you that there are some findings, some bead pairs, and a variety of fiber bits. There are also random beads (and some groups) including glass, wood, plastic, and gemstone. There are two strands of beads, a couple of buttons, and even a couple of art beads. Those weren’t technically on my bead table, they were under it in a box of things I was meaning to take apart. I haven’t done it, so I decided those beads need to be re-homed too. I didn’t include those in the picture because they kept peeking their little heads out. I want them to be a surprise; they are pretty good.
If you are an equal opportunity bead lover like I am who likes bits and bobs and is able to use random beads (I regularly use them right off my bead table in my designs) then you will be happy with this giveaway.
Entering is super easy to ease us into the new year. Just leave a comment on this post telling me a favorite something – a book, a food, a bead artist, a movie, a cleaning tip – just anything you love and want to share.
The giveaway is open internationally and will end on Saturday, January 7th at Noon Central Time. Please make sure I have a way to contact you. I’ll announce the winner, chosen at random, at some point later that afternoon.
Have fun and good luck to all!
Thank you for the giveaway Ann. My favorite book that I read this year is Lab Girl by Hope Jahren. It is about trees and 2 amazing and zany scientists.
Thank you for the giveaway! My favorite wintertime dinner meal is Taco Soup. It has corn, tomatoes, onion, beans, chicken and taco seasoning. I’ve got it bubbling in the crockpot right now!

My favorite cleaning tip is to sit down and have a margarita after cleaning! 😉 Thank you for the giveaway!

I’m interested in the giveaway. Have been watching an interesting show on youtube, New Wave Theater, for those of us who remember the fabulous 80s music. Good old days!
Thank you so much for your blog, giveaways but mostly for your inspiration!!! Have a fabulous 2017!!!!!
I would love some of your bits and bobs. I am fond of spaghetti with red peppers onions and olives in the tomato sauce, and am cooking some now.
My daughter introduced me to a wonderful TV series, entitled “Call the Midwife”. I’m watching season 3. Thanks for the giveaway, and Happy New Year.
What a fun question! I enjoyed reading the other posts. I have been binge watching West Wing on Netflix and the best book I’ve read recently is All the Light we Cannot See. Thanks for the fun giveaway. I would love to play with these bits and bobs.
This is such a fun giveaway! 😀 I really like swarovski crystals, they are beautiful.
What a fun giveaway! I just love grab bags because I can always find some real keepers. I love boots & my closet was full of their boxes. I found some boot hangers on Amazon so they are now hanging neatly. I no longer dread getting into my closet.
What a lovely idea to share some of your goodies. I have to share with you a TV series that I just finished–The Crown. I hated to see it end and I am looking forward to the next season.
