   Holly-
   I’ve been SWAMPED at work, and totally missed this round. If you do another, I would love to participate AND contribute- I’ve got lots of gorgeous goodies to share!
   A New Year’s giveaway sounds like a perfect time for round 2!!!

   Holly thank you for putting this whole thing together! Truly awesome! I am so honored that I got to be a part of it! I read hundreds of the comments last week of all the people who hoped to win. The stories were incredibly inspiring.

   I’ve been hitting refresh on your blog all day waiting to see the winners, and here they are. Now I’ve just gone back and looked at the comments of each of the 10 winners. I got a lump in my throat reading each of their stories!

   I am so thrilled to be a part of a much larger network of people with a love for craft and creativity. Some paper that went from my hands to yours, is now on its way to a new set of inspired hands somewhere. Call me a softie, but that gives me the warmest feeling inside.

   wow, holly, you really know how to keep a crowd waiting, lol. I was maybe a little obsessive in check back to see the results. You did an amazing job putting together a great give away.

   Congrats to the winners!!! Hope the scraps provide just the right piece of needed inspiration.

    Congratulations to all the winners! I was also obsessively hitting refresh ;) to see who won. It would be fun to see what people do with all the amazing stuff.

    Thank you, Holly for spending so much time (while you were already so busy getting ready to move and launch your new site-wow!) putting it together. Just the idea and the pics were inspiring in themselves. It would be fantastic if you did another one!!

    Also, I’m sure you are super busy now, but if you happen to know offhand, or could include this info with the donations link next time, I had a question: do any of these websites sell scraps/samples like the ones they sent to you? Obviously the collections you put together were totally amazing with all of the different sources of cool stuff, but I would love to be able to buy scraps of fabric or wallpaper from some of these more high end design beautiful sources where I couldn’t really afford a standard size order.

    Thanks again!!!

    This was such a cool contest, and I can’t imagine how much time and work you must have put into it, Holly. I didn’t enter because I have way too much on my plate to realistically make good use of the prizes, but I was definitely craving them all anyway! Hopefully I’ll be feeling less overwhelmed if you decide to do this again in the future.

    Congratulations to the winners! :)

    Drats! No win for me. I checked your blog about a million times yesterday waiting for the posting, sorry to be a stalker… this giveaway was just so exciting and I have little else to do than lie in my bed due to a back injury I suffered over three weeks ago that is taking a long time to heal. (Sympathy vote if one of the lucky ducks above don’t contact you back??)

    If the winners contact you with pics of their makings from the goodies will you please post them at some point? I’d love to check back and see what they created. Thanks for the chance to win, and you better believe I’ll enter another one (poor grad student with little inspiration from textbooks) if given the chance!

    You kept me up a good chunk of the night hitting refresh, and I do hope you’ll consider doing the contest again, I absolutely adored the prizes. I’ll be away, but if you do the contest again, I would definitely still try to enter.

    Hi Holly,

    First of all I am happily amazed that you are featuring my blog as your weekly fave. Wow! That is so great!! Thank you, I am very honored!

    The new design of decor8 is fabulous, really much easier to navigate, and I love the new layout and graphic style! Well done!

    Yes, please do another contest. I loved all of the materials you were giving away - maybe you can do one when you are in Europe :)

    Please keep in touch and again, best of luck with your move and send me a mail if you have any questions about anything at all!

    All the best,
    Stephanie
