I was going to wait until we got to 100 and do a journal giveaway, but then someone said, "why not do 70 and 100". We are going to have 3 giveaways! 1. Let's try to get the Creative Cottage to 70 members! 2. Invite someone in and go into a special draw 3. 100-member giveaway I thought - why not give 2 journals away - and the 3rd one will be another draw for those who invite people to the cottage! Just because it's better to give than receive! I love it! If you know anyone who would fit the cottage, please invite them via the INVITE link, and if they join, you will automatically go in the "second" giveaway draw! I think that makes sense. This is fun!

I'm a little bit on the extra happy side tonight - we are one off from reaching 70 members and our "giveaway" day - at this rate it will be tomorrow! I'm doing a cottage happy dance! Let's welcome all these lovely folk who arrived today @Jan Appleton @Agnes Ryckman @Aoife O Donovan @Julie McKenzie who are from "The Crochet Circle" and @Fred Tyre The jewel in the crown hey Fred who is rediscovery his artistic talents over in Kate's "Smidgen of Calm" Also @Susie Muir who comes form my home town! and a HUGE thank you particularly to @Caroline Fransz and @Kate Bullock who invited so many who have come. We'd love to hear from you all 🙏 Please share something about yourself below - it's how we get to know each other a bit better. the list below might help get your started. Maybe... - your favourite foods - favourite holiday destinations - your artistic talent or something you're working on now - your country - where you live - your relaxation hobby
