Turquoise Necklace Giveaway and Texas Blogging Gals

Texas Blogging Gals

I am excited to be participating in a giveaway at Texas Blogging Gals to celebrate the 400 Texas bloggers who have joined Diana’s wonderful blog.

She has dedicated so much time and effort in organizing us all so that we can find each other.

Visit

Texas Blogging Gals today to read the details and guidelines for entering. Four Texas bloggers are offering giveaway items.

Mine is a turquoise necklace.

(Make sure you keep reading!)

 And…

Because I couldn’t stand it, and because it seems like the thing to do…

I am offering this same necklace as a giveaway on my blog as well.

and…

*If you would like to participate by becoming a follower of the crazy, straight from the heart ramblings at the core of White Spray Paint, please join in.

and..

*If you post about the giveaway , I’ll do some other sort of mathematical wizardry and count you in again. Just let me know.

It is always a new day here!

I am a new follower. I love your blog, and I love spraypainting anything that will stand still white. Except my poodle, she is already white. Instead I dye her pink. Anyway I am married to a Texas guy, we lived in Austin for 2 years early in our marraige. So I am sort of a Texan. I can tell you this, football season in this house is all about the Cowboys.

Beautiful site, beautiful necklace. I check your blog often, although I've only recently become an official follower. I'm a Texas gal too, and readily identify with much of what you post. Keep up the good work. And please count me in for the giveaway.
