I have finally taken some pictures of the snowflakes I have been crocheting.  I would love to hold a contest to give away a dozen of these assorted snowflakes to one lucky person.  I have wanted to do a contest for some time and couldn't think of what to give away.  I am so glad to have thought of these.  I love to make them and would love to share them. 

 Each snowflake is hand crocheted with size 10 crochet cotton.  They range in size from about 3-5 inches.  They can be hung separately or I can crochet them into a garland of twelve.  All you have to do to enter is leave me a comment and post about the contest on your blog with a link back to this post.  The contest will close on Saturday, November 17.

I would like to offer these snowflakes for purchase.  If anyone is interested please leave me a comment.  They are $1.50 each snowflake or 12 for $15.  If you would like them made into a garland there is an additional fee.  I usually make the garlands with 12 but they can be made to the size you like.  These prices do not include shipping and handling but since they are light I don't think it would be more than a dollar or two.

 I like to hang these in my windows, on my Christmas tree and I also like to wrap the garlands around my curtain rods.  They just look so cute throughout the winter months.  I collect snowman and these look very cute with my snowman collection.

I will be thrilled to pick a winner so tell all of your friends and send them over.

Thank you and blessings!

Not sure how to enter your contest for the snowflakes, since I can't read your blog on my computer....something with the background and the font, but I would like to be entered. I love to crochet and love the lacy things like your snowflakes, but never seem to have the time to do things like that. I've also added you to my friends list, stop by for a visit sometime.

What great snowflakes! I wish I could do something like that. But my crafting has come to a screaming halt with all the "make me food" orders from my 2 year old steroid boy.
