Her blog is full of techniques we can learn, and new goodies we can make ourselves! <\/p>\n<p>Now this is a generous and lovely idea anyway, and then she came up with one even nicer &#8211; she&#8217;s asked some shops at Etsy if they&#8217;d supply goodies to make the creations in the tutorials. So &#8211; an artist gets to play with new (free!) supplies, AND teach us how she made her creation! And of course, the vendor gets credit too. <\/p>\n<p>If you have a skill you&#8217;d like to share, and you&#8217;ve always wanted to make a tutorial and get your name out there &#8211; this is your chance! Go to <a href=\"http:\/\/totallytutorials.blogspot.com\/2009\/07\/get-freebie-create-tutorial.html\"><strong>Totally Tutorials<\/strong><\/a> to learn more about the tutorials. Or read this post to learn how you can win \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Of course I couldn&#8217;t resist. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weekendjewelry1.etsy.com\"><strong>Weekend Jewelry1 on Etsy<\/strong><\/a> is going to contribute FREE supplies to three winning artists!<\/p>\n<p><center><big><em><strong>How To Win!<\/em><\/big><\/strong><\/center><\/p>\n<p>There will be three, count &#8217;em, three lucky winners! <\/p>\n<p>You have a week to apply &#8211; all three winners will be chosen Thursday night, August 13, 2009. The only requirements for winning are that you make jewelry, can take clear photos of your work and create a tutorial, and that you have a blog or site (such as Craftster) where you can post the tutorial. <\/p>\n<p>To be eligible, please post a comment on my blog here, or send me a convo through <a href=\"http:\/\/www.etsy.com\/shop.php?user_id=39810\"><strong>my Etsy shop<\/strong><\/a> telling me you want to be a Tutorial winner! Tell me what goodies you would like to win. You can select any supplies I have, up to a $12.00 retail value! <\/p>\n<p>Please also include a link to the site where you will post your tutorial. <\/p>\n<p>One note &#8211; if I&#8217;m almost out of something, I may ask you to make another selection. Or, if the winner before you selected exactly the same components, I&#8217;ll ask you to choose other pieces. <\/p>\n<p>You don&#8217;t even have to pay for shipping. And yes, international artists are eligible! <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll contact the winners late Thursday night on August 13, 2009. If I don&#8217;t hear back from you by Saturday, August 15, I&#8217;ll pick another winner. So if you&#8217;re not going to be reachable, please tell me AHEAD OF TIME so I know why I haven&#8217;t heard back from you. <\/p>\n<p>Please make your jewelry &#8211; and your tutorial &#8211; as soon as possible after receiving your supplies (no more than a couple of weeks, please).  Post the tutorial, and include a link to my shop in the tutorial, letting people know where you got your supplies!<\/p>\n<p>Send me the link to your new tutorial, so I can link to it from my shop &#8211; and show off the creation made with my supplies. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Please also send the link to <a href=\"http:\/\/totallytutorials.blogspot.com\/\"><strong>Totally Tutorials Blogspot<\/strong><\/a> so she can post it too!<\/p>\n<p>I think that&#8217;s it.
