“You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich...strengthen the weak by weakening the strong...bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift...lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down...build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative and independence...help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves." -Abraham Lincoln

Basketsbyrose give away



I have not done a give away since I started my blog.  It is about time I got off my butt and did one.  This week has been amazing, three artist featured me on their blogs.  My new web site is up and running, not totally filled up, and two of my kids are home from a long deployment.   YEA!  With all of the good stuff going on why not celebrate.  So I'm offering three gift certificates for a basket.  The value on each will be $25.00, and I will have three winners.  You may pick a basket or something else I have made, and you may also custom order the colors, if you wish.

To enter please do the following and each will count has one entry.

1.  Leave a comment on my blog

2.  Become a follower

3.  Add my give away on your blog.

I will pick a winner 4-30-2010.. Good luck!  Good things come in three's, and let this continue.

Rose your comment about China is right on!!
Back in the 80's you could make a baskets and sell them with no problem...then came China. You can't even buy decent reed for what you pay for a finished basket.

BUY AMERICAN ~ BUY HANDMADE

There is nothing like MADE IN THE USA!!

SUPPORT AMERICAN ARTISTS

It is impossible not to buy things from China, but it you can get it here, try USA first.
