It's my turn to 'Pay It Forward'.

pay_it_4ward[1]

I was lucky enough to be one of the first 3 people to sign up for the 'Pay It Forward' with Maree @ Farmyard Crafts. Now its my turn to do the same!

So, how does this work? Well, for the first 3 people who will post a comment to this post, I will make you a lovely handmade gift each. But, you have to have a blog yourself, and be willing to pass the 'Pay It Forward' concept on. So you will then have to put it on your blog and make three gifts for other people. Let's spread some happiness and have some fun! So the rules state that I have 365 days (ample time!) to make a gift in. I'm more than happy to send something internationally - so everyone can be involved!!

What better way for everyone to join hands around the globe and share our crafty goodness!!!

So, who wants Janellybelly to make them something - then you go and make something for 3 other people? 3 spots are taken - Dee from The Cackle Queen Club, Shawna from Nuts To You and Terri from Clay Hill Farm (Shawna still has 2 spots available for her PIF).

Some other news... Today I went for an interview at Textile Traders - a fantastic fabric and haberdashery chain of stores here in WA. I have a trial day on Monday (to see if I like the job), if all goes well, then I will have the opportunity to do some relief work/possible part time work. I am very excited to say the least!

With Love

Oh Janelle, I would so love to be included in this pay it forward. How exciting to do something for others. I would also be so thrilled to have something from your hands. What a blessing. Hoping I'm one of the lucky ones. D :=)

I would like to do that - the pay it forward concept sounds very cool! Even I should be able to come up with something acceptable in a year!

I have heard about this pay it forward thing... is there still a spot open? If not I guess I will have to keep my eyes open for another opportunity :)

I am actually doing a Thanksgiving one of these Play it forwards...It is true that by doing these things we really strengthen the Sisterhiood.
WWW Really does begin to make the world a whole much smaller place:)
Good on you for getting the ball rollling

Good luck with your new job! Can you do a show and tell about your new books, in particular 'Seams to Me' by Anna Maria Horner - keen to see what you think!

Good luck with the trial for your new job! Sounds excellent! I'm so excited with how the PIF is going! I'm wondering if I might trace it and see how far back we can follow it! :)

Thanks for your post today Janelle. Yes, I'm happy all my pif spots are now filled. Can't wait. In my craft group tonight we discussed what I should make for my lovely recipients. The verdict is in. Projects are decided and now all I have to do now is create. lol. D. :=)

isn't it funny how you posted about this, which was picked up by Nuts to You, which then went all the way over to Bonnie at Life with Evie, which then came back to Me in Brisbane. It's marvelous the way our cyber-crafty community works@!
