Pay it Forward - Blog Style
I ran across a very cool ‘pay it forward’ project on the Ugly Green Chair, a friend-of-a-friend’s blog, a few weeks back. I’m a fan of anything that is remotely crafty and doesn’t give me strict deadlines, so I signed up!
I like the description that Whitney posted, so I’ll use that as well:
I will send handmade gifts to the first three people who leave a comment and tell me they are interested in playing. In order to play, you must have your own blog and you must continue to ‘pay it forward’ by promising the same thing to your readers. Now, as far as the handmade gifts go, I don’t know yet what they will be. I also don’t know when I’ll get them sent. You may not receive the gift tomorrow or next week, but I do promise that it will get to you within the next 365 days! Sound good? I think it sounds great! Remember, I will be choosing the first three people who respond by leaving a comment on this blog post. The requirements are that you have your own blog and are willing to send out three of your own homemade gifts (whatever you want to make, no rules or limitations here).
Interested? Leave a comment. Let’s keep it going.

I’m game. Sounds like an excellent opportunity for the blogging/gift giving.
Thanks.

I know you don’t know me from Adam, but I came across your blog last year after it was listed on the Austinist.

Thanks JD for pointing out this post. K girl, I’m all about freebies and love to give gifts as well. Count me in. Will be posted on my blog this evening.
