Rants In My Pants June Giveaway Featuring Terrace Hill

June is here.  It's time to bust out those cute little canning jars and weird suctioney lid things and get to making some strawberry jam...and if you believe, as I do, that it is not about what you do but about how you look while you're doing it that counts, you're gonna want to add this month's prize to your festival of fruit preservation.

That's right.  This month's prize is a cool vintage inspired apron from Terrace Hill.  Donna Reed wishes she looked so good.  Too bad for you Donna.

Terrace Hill is an Etsy shop whose owner, Chadley, is based in sunny California.  She sells all kinds of great vintagey aprons (her grandma used to tell her that a girl can never have too many aprons - you go Gran) and really cute sock monkeys (her parents never would give in and let her have that real pet monkey that she always wanted.  Big meanies.)  

Chadley is all about the beach and baking and gardening and spring cleaning and good books.  She's a former librarian who has turned her considerable talents to her creative pursuits.  Luckily.

Want to win?  Here's how...

To be entered in this month's giveaway please visit Terrace Hill on Etsy.  Hustle your pants right back here and leave a comment about your favorite item.  That is worth ONE ENTRY and one chance to win.

If you just can't stand losing and would like to rack up some additional entries, listen up.  You can earn ONE ADDITIONAL ENTRY EACH by:

 

• becoming a follower of Rants In My Pants (my blog must show up on the "blogs I'm following" portion of your dashboard or it doesn't count)
• linking to the giveaway from your blog or website 
• posting a link to the giveaway on Facebook
• Tweeting about the giveaway 
• taking one the buttons from my sidebar for your blog
• and/or writing a post on your blog about the giveaway

If you purchase something from our generous sponsor (in the month in which they are featured), you will earn 5 ADDITIONAL ENTRIES.  (I'll need an invoice number or some other type of verification so that I can double check with our sponsor.  Like I said, I don't want cheaters to prosper.)

YOU MUST leave a different comment for each entry. (Example:  One comment with your favorite thing and a different comment saying you are a follower).  If you don't, don't blame me when you don't get your rightful chances.  I will use random.org's random number generator to pick our winner.  The winner's name will be posted on Rants In My Pants and will be notified via email.  They will have 24 hours from the time of the post with the big announcement to claim their prize.  If the prize is not claimed within the time limit, everyone (except the "too bad for you" winner) will stand up and cheer, because we'll try again with the random number, claim it within 24hrs. thing.

This deadline for entering this giveaway is June 23, 2010 @ 5pm PST.

Good Luck.
