Happiness Lies in Small, Little Things: Time for a Giveaway

Those who have been reading this blog for a while know how frequently and softly I use this phrase - 'Happiness lies in small, little things.' And I believe in it. Truly. 

My hub and every one around me knows how these small, cute things make me happy and how when a small thing goes wrong, it upsets me! I may be unperturbed by bigger failures but sometimes just a small fall make ruin my days. At the same time, I will not react at a bigger, more expensive gift but may scream at the sight of something sweet, hand made gift! Well, that is me.. and without complaints. :) 

So, today I am announcing the first give away of my blog. There are many reason for giving away two nice gifts:

• I like doing things, new things that is. Had never done a give away before so was tempted to offer something for free on my own blog. 
• My blog has more than 100 fans and more than 100 posts and more than 10,000 viewers. Okay, yeah! the no. of viewers is less and not supposed to be celebrated but given the effective age of my blog, I am happy with albeit small yet crucial progress the lr blog has made. 
• It is festive season, so getting something for free may add to somebody's celebration. 

What is there in this giveaway?

Two winners will be chosen through a lucky draw using random.org or an online number generator. This is an international giveaway so my readers from India and abroad can participate.

Both the items make wonderful gifts and beautiful possessions.

One winner (from India) gets this lovely piece of  pendent set by Noor. It is a beautiful piece of jewellery. Noor company is famous for its subtle designs and high quality products. I own two pieces of Noor. The chain is not included in the set. 

The other winner (outside India) gets a copy of the international best seller book 'The Help' by Katherine Stockett. It is a poignant story of two women who help raise the kids of a family. Rest you can find out by reading the book.
