Headband Giveaway!!

**UPDATE: Comments are closed! Winner will be posted shortly. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and shared some fun info about themselves.**

With all the new levels of crazy being reached recently in nearby corners of the internet (and if you have no idea what I'm talking about, then please consider yourself very fortunate), I think a little lighthearted, good old-fashioned giveaway is in order.

What say you?

Feast your eyes upon this!

No, no. The baby isn't up for grabs. She's too much fun to accessorize for me to give her up. The bow on her head is what's at stake. Very summer-ish, isn't it?

Here it is from the side.

I semi-handmade this sucker* (as in, I didn't crochet the headband--who has that much time?), and nothing would thrill me more than to ship it off to someone else who gets as many kicks out of little girls wearing large flowered hair accessories as I do.

If you've been around here long enough, then you'll remember Charlotte's first dabblings with big flowery headbands. (You'll also remember how excited I was when I ordered them.) She, miraculously, tolerates them, and I think I get more compliments on her cute hair bows than I actually do on my even cuter baby. Hmm.

I wonder how this would work if she were an ugly baby.

Anyway, Charlotte was more than happy to model this one for you, and it can be yours! All yours! All you have to do to enter is leave me a comment on this post with your name somewhere in that comment. Really, you can say anything. You know what? I'd really like it if you, instead of saying something banal like, "Yay! I want a headband." or "Yeah, that bow is way cuter than your baby," I'd prefer it if you tell me something special about yourself. Seriously. I want to know my readers better, so tell me a little bit about you in a couple sentences. Tell me what you're doing today, what your spouse did yesterday to tick you off, what TV shows you've been catching up on, how scary you think it is that I spank my children. Whatever. As long as you're not overtly hateful or disgusting, your fantastically you-themed comment will be entered. How does that sound?

If you're new to this blog or have been lurking around for awhile without a peep, look at this as a perfect chance to leave your first comment. Only one comment per person, please; more than one will get you disqualified. I'll shut this baby down sometime tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon or evening, so get your entry in before it's too late.

Here, Charlotte will show off the bling for you one more time.

(Anyone who says that bow is cuter than her is a dead man.)

Happy entering!!

*You should know I'm not a pro at this. I just see things I like, think "I could do that myself," and do it, no matter how half-assed the final product is. This is no where half-assed. I'd say it's pretty near full-assed, if I may. (Sorry. I love that word. I can't say it around the house, so I toss it around on the blog as much as possible.) Two disclaimers: 1) The headband is an adult size, although it measures the same as any baby/kid headband I have/saw at the store. It fits Charlotte, but there's a chance it could stretch. 2) The flower is on a clippie, so you can take that off, mix and match, whatever. I didn't have a matching grosgrain ribbon to cover the clippie with, and Hobby Lobby is way on the other side of town, so it's just the flower stuck on the bare silver clip. Really, it's not a big deal. The flower is huge and camouflages the clip just fine.

Okay, enough disclaiming. Carry on.

Oh, oh! And if you're reading this on Facebook, then I'll have to ask that you actually come to the blog itself (www.keepingupwiththecases.com) to comment and enter. Thanks.
