Grow Your Own Blog Party

Welcome to a "Grow Your Own Blog Party" courtesy of Vicki at 2 Bags Full.  Vicki had the marvelous idea of giving back to the blogging community by helping other bloggers grow their blog following by hosting a party.

Her idea was shared on a post back in October and she has already received over 400 comments to that single post.  Amazing.  This party is about opening our blogs to other readers and hoping they will become followers.  Of course, the best thing about blogging is the people you meet.  I began my journey with:

 Musings of a Sea Witch - on April 24, 2009. 

...and she blogs. 

I'm here. I offer my first blog. I ask myself, what brought me to this venue as I have visited blogs on and off for years with never a desire to offer my own. I blame "one vintage hag," although blame is not the proper word, I thank, yes I thank "one vintage hag" for introducing me to a cyber world of friends, new and old, quirky personalities hidden behind interesting headers, joyful photographs, heartfelt words, laugh out loud snippets of their daily activities and a few tears that we all share in common. These unique men and women who have a common (or perhaps, uncommon) need to share pieces of themselves through their blogs.  

To read more of my first blog post, you may click on the above link.

It is the people, the hearts and souls of blog owners, blog followers, blog commentators that have made my journey a marvelous one.   Many share my love of antique, vintage pieces, repurposing old and broken into something new and functional, knitting and spinner, creating jewelry and the joy of travel...but my passion is the sea.  Everything about the water fulfills me and I adore diving whenever I can get away with my honey.

I have learned much from this world wide community of talented individuals, they have all so willingly shared their talents, their adventures, their joys and sometimes their personal pain.  They have become family.

So to make this party fun, I am offering a giveaway to a lucky commenter. You do not have to own a blog to participate.  If you visit my blog and leave a comment about today's post, you will be entered in a drawing to win a Sea Witch necklace and earring set.

 Pale pink silk cord with faceted crystal beads, metal and glass beads necklace.  Two pairs of matching earrings.  A small pair for day or work and then a larger pair for after 5 fun!

So thank you for stopping by and saying hello.  I hope to hear from you often.  Don't forget to leave a comment to enter into my Grow Your Own Blog giveaway and a huge thank you to 2 Bags Full for getting this party started.  I will announce the winner on February 1st.  
Blessings to you and those you love. Sea Witch
