Ideas and a {Giveaway} from The Twinery! (and a discount code too!!)

A while back I had contacted The Twinery about getting one of their ad spaces on their blog and in emailing back and forth they offered to send me some twine to preview and share with you guys. I decided to make something for the festivities yesterday so I dipped some marshmallows (like I did for the 4th of July) and used the twine on each marshmallow stick and around the jar. I think they turned out really cute. I used the yellow, orange and red twine and knotted them together on each stick. (get the Give Thanks graphic here)




They also offered a discount code to my readers and ALSO offered to give away one of their super cute Christmas Trios (valued at $38) from their blog.


{Twine Ideas}
The Twinery has an awesome Flickr group with ideas of what to do with your twine. I am always amazed to see the creative things that people can come up with.

{To enter the giveaway}
Simply comment and tell me what you'd use your twine trio for. For a bonus entry simply Tweet, Facebook or Blog about the giveaway and leave a second comment telling me what you did. The giveaway entries will close on Friday, December 3rd.

{Coupon Code}
If you want to order your twine today (and I think you should!!), enter coupon code - AMYCORNWELL25 - at checkout at The Twinery and you will receive 25% off! What an amazing deal! I think I'm going to have to order some larger spools!

  1. I love what you did with the twine! That is so cute! I would love to have some twine to use on my Christmas gifts. I plan to wrap them in plain brown paper with some brightly colored thread stitched down the middle. I think the twine would be a great finishing touch!

  2. The twine would be so cute to attach to homemade christmas gift tags or to add as an embellishment on homemade greating cards and scrapbooking pages!

  3. We have 3 gift recipients at our 'main' Christimas giving event- Mother in Law, Father in Law, and Brother in Law- so I would wrap each gift in brown paper and use a different color of twine for each person's gifts.
