Tomorrow is May 1st. That may mean many things to many people. It is May Day. As a kid I recall something about may baskets and flowers. In Hawaii, May Day is Lei Day. Everyone wears a lei and there are extraordinary leis entered into contests. The school children hold Lei Day celebrations with a Royal Court, hula dancing and all sorts of festivities.
But for me, May 1st is the beginning of my birthday month! My bday is the last day of May. I thoroughly enjoy having birthdays! It means I am still alive! For me, my birthday is like New Years Day for other people. I love to take the day and reflect on the past year and think about ways I can improve as a person in the coming year. One year, my sister bought me 31 presents and I got to open one every day of the month. It was so much fun!
So this year, I want to make some other lucky girls' day by giving away a Sasaki Bag on my birthday. I have not made the bag that will be given away. I am not sure which one it will be yet. I am hoping you all inspire me to create something that all the girls will envy. To qualify here is what you can do:
1. Each time you comment on my Sasaki Bags Facebook or Twitter pages I will write your name on a slip of paper and put it in a bag.
2. If you comment on my blog, you will also be entered into the drawing.
3. If you go to my Discussions page on Sasaki Bags Facebook and leave a comment or start a new discussion, you will be entered again and again!
Then at the end of the month...did I mention that is my BIRTHDAY?, I will draw a slip of paper out of the bag and announce the lucky girl!
I am doing it in this fashion so that a girl who REALLY wants a Sasaki Bag can increase her chances of getting one by leaving comments. In the past, I randomly chose a name from my list of fans. What I really hope to accomplish is to get to know my customers and friends a little better. Tell me what you like, what you don't like. Give me your ideas! Lets just have fun connecting this month!

Sounds like a plan, and it is most generous of you to do a bag giveaway. Unfortunately, I have nothing in particular to say just now, but I have the rest of the month to get inspired :-)
Suzanne,
Thanks for stopping by. You are always so supportive. Consider yourself "entered" into the give-away!

Let's make it a Hula Daddy bag with any of the beautiful linings you have. I like the Kahuna one the best.
Let's make it a Hula Daddy bag. Any of your beautiful linings would work wonderfully. I like the Kahuna bag the best.
Karen, I think I will be a Hula Daddy coffee bag for my give-away because all 3 votes were for Hula Daddy! The Big Kahuna would definately be a NICE give-away! Hmmmm....
Neat bags Barb, Looks like the creative gene runs in your family.
Hi Peggy!
Thanks for dropping by!
It took me years to realize that just because I can't draw and thus have never considered myself "artistic", it doesn't mean that I can't be "creative"! My sis, my brother, my kids can all draw amazing things, and I finally found MY niche!
You are very creative, you never cease to amaze me and of course I have known you all of your life! Ha! My vote would be for the Hula Daddy bags as well.
such a nice gesture. i'd be very happy to have a chance at owning one of your beautiful bags. thank you!
J. Doe,
consider yourself entered! Feel free to comment here or on my Facebook account for more chances to win.
Oooh! I love your bags!!! I'm in!
Hi Barb -- I vote for the Hula Daddy bag and I also love the watermelon bag and also your tiny little silk babies. I remember a couple of years ago that Kathy Lynn sent me the link for your bags. We are both so proud of you! Love, Coulette
