Hey DIYers,

DIYBride site will go quiet this holiday weekend while I finish up the final stages of the new site. During my absence I’m opening a contest to give away copies of both of my DIY Bride books.  All you have to do is leave a comment on this post (1 comment per person, please) and you’re entered. Even better? For each comment/entry, I’ll donate a can or box of food to my local Second Harvest food bank.

Details:

• Leave 1 comment in response to this post from 11/24 through 11/30 to enter.
• On 12/01, I’ll select 2 winners using a random number generator. Each winner will recieve copies of both of my books.
• For each entry received, I’ll donate 1 unit (can, bag, box) of food to my local (San Jose, CA) Second Harvest Food Bank.
• 1 entry per person
• Open to all!

Happy Thanksgiving!
