I don't usually do 2 posts in a day but this was too good not share what I got in the mail today. Some of you may remember awhile back I had entered into a contest with Red Heart Yarn via of Facebook to complete in winning a Red Heart Prize Pack! I was very close for so long in the running. Many of my friends and family voted and pushed for voting for me. And for that I would like to give the biggest Thanks for it. Here is the original post I put on my blog for it. http://coreycreativecorner.blogspot.com/2012/10/cute-pink-teddy-bear-hat.html
I did not win but they decided to make honorary runner up prize packs to be sent out! I was so excited to hear of this news!
I couldn't wait to open this box but the UPS driver dropped it off right before I had to leave to pick up my oldest son for school... so it had to wait! UGGG! I've been waiting.. couldn't believe that it was finally here!
So I came straight in to find the box and was like a gitty little girl on Christmas day awaiting to open her present! Got the scissors out & opened the box.
I Found:
It was so stuffed pack I sat on the floor pulled this huge tote bag out! Yippee I love the heavy duty of this bag and that it fits so much I can just imagine my self toting around a big afghan I'm working on now wherever I go.
See Below:

Haha! I am the exact same way when a package comes. Especially when it's something I didn't pay for!
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous! You will have to show us what you make with all your new goodies!!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, this was a big one for me! I think everyone who voted for me was so excited to hear that even though I did qualify for the top wins, but to still be made an Honorary Runner Up was awesome news!
