I came across this blog, Confetti by: Kateedyd earlier this morning but I thought I would write a post on the contest later in the evening and put in an entry myself. I came home from shopping and checked out the blog only to find that the closing date is actually today, 1st November 2008 at 12noon PST. I don’t know what time that will be in Malaysia, where I am but I am going to try to get an entry in, nevertheless.

If you would like to stand a chance to win US$25 Amazon gift card, do check out what you are required to do to submit an entry by reading this contest post. Basically, you need to write a blog post informing your readers about the amazing giveaway by Kateedyd, where one winner will walk away with the prize of a US$25 Amazon gift card.

If you are interested, better hurry. There’s not much time left, but GOOD LUCK nonetheless!

Free Tumblr Skins

Many of my friends have already registered with Tumblr and enjoying themselves there. They asked me to join them but I am really reluctant to do so mainly because I know that I will never have the time to actively participate there. Also, I really hate to set up yet another account because I will keep forgetting my own User ID and password!

Anyway, for those of you who have a Tumblr account and would like to spruce up your page with a new Tumblr layout, here is a website that has a few beautiful Tumblr layouts. Frankly, I did not know that one could change the layout of Tumblr. Wouldn’t it be great if we could also skin our Facebook and Twitter?

Some of you may know that I run an eCommerce store. However, lately, I have been felling like I should revamp it but have no idea how to go about it. I saw a blogger who converted her WordPress blog into an ecommerce site but the layout was la WordPress theme that I came across before.

I then went searching for a WordPress eCommerce theme and found this Crafty Cart by The King Cart. Isn’t it cute an informal? I too would like to use something like this right now, it looks like there is only ONE eCommerce WordPress theme. Also, there are not many payment or shipping options that it could support.

Free Crochet Patterns

I always wanted to learn to crochet properly. I used to do it in my own way and my knots kept getting undone and my yarn unravels, spoiling my handiwork. I thought that if I could do it properly, I would have many things to crochet but I guess I will never be able to find the time. If I do have the time, I would probably prefer to rest my fingers! LOL

In any case, I do have a few friends who are very good with crocheting. They get their crochet patterns from imported magazines, which I thought is pretty costly. Yarn and accessories are not cheap already, you know, so they should think of saving a little money in other ways to indulge in their hobby!

Happy Yellow House! has a good selection of free crochet patterns for non-commercial use. If you have no project to work on, it’s a good time to check out Happy Yellow House! for fresh crochet ideas.

Free WordPress Themes For Your Website

A couple of days ago, I set up a WordPress powered website, as suggested by friends who told me that I would be more comfortable with the management and up-keeping of it, compared to a conventional website. The one I did was a charity website for an NGO.

I went searching for a free WordPress theme that would be suitable for a website, and not a blog and found LivingOS. This is a blog run by a Church Minister by the name of Tim Hyde, so he knows what a Church website requires.

I am happy to find that he has two pages of WordPress themes for free use, but a link back at the footer is required, of course. He also accepts donations via PayPal.

If you are looking for a website theme and power with WordPress, this is the place t. Trust me, I’ve been EVERYWHERE!

Fragrances are always very well received even though it may just be a small sample I guess it is because of the high price that branded fragrances are normally sold t. I tell you, sometimes you have to wonder if it’s worth buying them because of the humongous price tag but there will always be ladies who are rich enough to afford them. No wonder they smell so ice all the time.

Today, I am bringing you a free fragrance sample from Bill Blass. As you probably know, Bill Blass is a well known designer. I used to watch him and his fashion shows on TV but that was a long time ago. He has now expanded his range of products to include fragrances.

To get your hands on Bill Blass fragrance, select one of the samples; Couture 1, Couture 3, Couture 6, Couture 7 and Bill Blass Women. Sorry, this freebie sample is only available for US residents. BAH!

I am in the process of building a charity website and at the moment looking for an appropriate template. My friend advised me to look for free Dreamweaver templates. Well, I really cannot differentiate one template from another. I have a personal website but I don’t think that the template I used was Dreamweaver, perhaps just plain CSS template.

Well, I went to search for free Dreamweaver templates like my friend told me to. So far, I have no found the perfect template that I would like to use for my website but I found this website, Dreamweaver-templates.net that offers a good selection of free Dreamweaver templates.

If you would like to use them, make sure to read through their Terms of Use first. Probably you will have to provide a link back to their website but that’s just a small price to pay for free use of their Dreamweaver template, right?
