I had a give away over on Folksy to try and encourage more Twitter followers.
It worked out pretty well, i got my followers from 9 upto 79 which was a pretty good jump start. I could always do a few more so that i can try and get my ideas, and hopefully items out there more. So if your not a follower and you are a Tweeter here is where I twitter away. https://twitter.com/#!/Love_Maisylee
Only 6 entered in the end, (i did have photo to insert here, with the winners name being pulled out of the bag, but it seems i deleted it before i put it on the p.c.) I was happy atleast some one entered, because i was a bit nervous no one would and i would of felt like a right Plonker.
I know the winner Aidencrafts was happy with her pin cushion choice, and the little extra pieces that i put in there too.
Those who followed me, i followed too. I love that most of the people who come up on my Twitter feed are fellow crafters. I love waking up and seeing lots of different people linking to their blogs, their Etsy shop or their Folksy shop. I feel their excitment when they get a great order, or they make it to the front page of Folksy/Etsy, and when they make it to print i can't even begin to imagine how that feels.
I would love to have some more followers on my shiny new blog, so i can follow you and have you on my blog feed, but also because it looks a wee bit sad only having 3 followers lol.
So i decided to have another give away and hopefully it will encourage more followers to my blog too.
I will put your name in the cup cake of love, and the winner can choose anything from my shop, and i will ship it out to you.

These gorgeous little rubbers will be included too, i couldn't help myself when i saw these and i bought 2 packs, one for me and one for the give away.
This give away is open to anyone who would like to enter, you don't have to be crafty to enter, just click follow blog, and then leave a message on this page. If your already a follower and would like to enter, then just make a reply.
The closing date wil be May the 14th. Thankyou to any one who enters, and any one who follows.
Love and Luck Donna x x

Your blog is lovely. I've followed through Google friends but I've also followed through BlogLovin', I find it a bit easier. So don't worry too much about the number of followers, it doesn't necessarily reflect the number of readers! I've put a link to BlogLovin' below just in case you are interested.

Hi, Thanks for visiting my blog! Love your Folksy shop, such gorgeous things. Please put my name in for the giveaway. Don't worry about the number of followers, but when I first started the best way to get more was to simply follow and comment on other peoples blogs that I liked. :) x
