First of all congrats on your new blog. Both blogs looks so adorable! You did such a wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteWould love to win a 3 column custom design for my new blog.
My most favorite hobby is blogging;) And next to that is surfing the net, sewing,photography and reading.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite hobby is a toss up. I LOVE LOVE LOVE cooking. I do it daily (multiple times a day usually) and am working on starting up a cooking blog.

I would LOVE to win a design from you. Your site is gorgeous!
I had a custom design for my review blog before, but the person who designed it went out of business and didn't give me the photos (they were in her Photobucket account)
So one day, my whole blog was just Photobucket errors. :( Now, I'm using a free template but really miss having a custom design.
Thanks for doing this giveaway!
I totally need a new blog design! My favorite hobby is sewing. I can make so many fun things doing it! i don't always get around to everything I want to do, but it's my favorite when I find time to do it.

ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite hobbies is reading. I love to read almost anything. When I read it takes me somewhere else and I get to relax. The only bad part is once I start reading a really good book I can not put it down. I have to keep on reading until I finish.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite hobby is anything to do with the babies! I'm learning more and more about blogging so that is definitely fun for me-I've been looking into a Blog Design because I've actually thought about going into a self-hosted site!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great giveaway!
My favorite hobby is improving my french. I have a degree in French, but I like to improve, and I also like to learn as much as I can about the french culture. I collect everything "French" -- you would be able to tell as soon as you walked in my house!

My favorite hobby would have to be reading a John Grisham novel. Though I don't get much time these days with a 1 and 4yr. old running around, but whenever I get a little free time, that's what I'm doing. I completed all of the items listed in order to gain the maximum entries allowed. I could really use a makeover and a fresh new start. Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteDeclaring a favorite hobby is difficult for me, because I have two favorite hobbies and to declare one more important than the other seems wrong. :) I love reading, and I love playing my flute. They both enrich my life, and I wouldn't want to live without either activity.
ReplyDeleteI added your button to my blog. Here's the link:

ReplyDeleteMy favorite hobby is most definately reading. It's my favorite because I get so little time to do it since I had these crazy kids of mine. And no, reading 'Alexander' six thousand times a day doesn't give me my fix. Oh, and a close second hobby is writing/blogging. Hence my obsession with redesigning my blog layout. I'm taking this contest as a sign. Your page looks fantastic!
