The rules are...............
1.  Become a follower of this blog - easy to do, and you can always unfollow later.
2. Leave a comment, just a hallo will do - only one comment per person.
That's it. I'll pick the name out of a hat (with my eyes shut) and announce the winner on Monday 31st January.

Although my shop was created on February 23rd 2009 it sat there for nearly a year before I plucked up courage to open it in January 2010. My first sale was on 10th January 2010 and my 1000th on 10th January 2011 - exactly a year - how incredible is that!
So this giveaway is a small thank you to everyone who has supported me during the last year, it has been a wonderful voyage................. thank you.

Share 7 things about myself.

Pass on the award to blogs that I love and contact them about the award.

So, here are 7 things about me that you may not know.

I love shoes, no really I LOVE shoes, I have lots and lots!

I find it difficult to buy trousers that are long enough in the leg.

I don't drink, alcohol that is, I don't like the taste.....odd, but I'm cheap to take out !

I went to Art School and studied Graphics for 2 years then changed to Fashion.

My first job was working with a Couture House in Paris.

I can understand Spanish very well, and can speak it with a lot of arm waving and miming.

I would be quite happy to live on cake and chocolate......if only!
