June Give-Away


It's time for the June Give-Away! This month there will be 2 Give-Aways; 1 here on Color 'n Cream Blog and 1 (an extra nice one!!) on the Color 'n Cream Facebook Page next week. I still take my resolution of Giving very seriously. I think I've never been this committed to a new years resolution ever before...


I love the way giving makes me feel. The more you give, the more you notice how much one has to offer. It's corny, but it's really very rewarding! That's why I've decided to start giving more. From this month, I will be donating 10% of what I earn in my shop to Microkrediet voor Moeders. It's an organization that supplies mothers in Asia with microcredit to start a business of their own, so they can  provide for their families. And the beautiful thing is, it's a loan, so the money returns and will be of use to another mother. Isn't that smart??


And now, about the June Give-Away... It's a set of my 4 funky Postcards and a happy Flower Garland!! I really love the Flower Garland, as you might already have figured out. They are a real feel good item. I sold quite a few of them already, 'cause they're so damn cute!!


If you want to join the Give-Away, just leave a comment down below and make sure I am able to contact you if you win. And keep an eye on the Color 'n Cream Facebook Page for the second June Give-Away...

Have a fun cloudy day!

PS. At the end of the week there will be some more yarn available in the Color 'n Cream Shop. I will announce it on Facebook!

    Hi!
    I joined your blog couple weeks ago and I'm delighted with all your work! Not only make you beautiful things by crochet, but you have very professional blog and fb account, too.
    I even started my own squares for a blanket :)
    I would really appreciate, if I could win your garland and postacards. I have 1,5-year-old daughter, a nd I think, she would also be happy :)
