insane giveaway: ipad2!!!

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. Congratulations to winner Jen Gotch and a huge thanks to Merida Home.

Are you ready? So, a few weeks ago a sweet friend asked if I ever run giveaways here. And if you’ve been reading this site forever, you’ll know the answer used to be yes and is now sort of like, “No… I don’t really love them and I’m always jealous of the readers that win and blah blah blah.”

But when Merida Home asks you if your readers want an iPad 2? You jump, shout and say yes. Here’s how you enter to win:
1. Comment below for 1 entry.
2. Tweet the contest using this link for an EXTRA entry.
3. Post the sample text below onto your blog for TEN EXTRA entries (and my love).

I’m serious. This is going to be awesome.

Need some sample text for your Tweeting action? Enjoy:
Did you hear that @erinloechner and @meridahome are giving away an iPad? Enter here to win!: http://bit.ly/kJxiH5

And a sample for your blog (must link to both me and Merida Home because we’re awesome!):
I’m posting this to enter a contest offered by MeridaHome at Design For Mankind! I want to win the iPad 2! (and I love Erin’s shoes!)

You know. Just a few suggestions. I’ll announce the winner two weeks from today: June 1st!!!

Don’t forget to leave a link to your blog post in the comment section below!

And while we’re on the subject, Merida Home (one of my favorite eco-friendly rug companies!) made this whole extravaganza possible. So kudos to them, and please say hello to them on Facebook or Twitter. They’re sweet little peas (and they gave me an iPad2, as well, so I can match my winner!

Amaaaaaazing!

   I usually don’t enter giveaways, because I’m not the lucky type. But for an ipad 2, well, I’ll just give it a shot. Thanks!
