Regarding giveaways....

I want to thank everyone for their interest in sponsoring a giveaway here on I like Big Bows. I enjoy hosting giveaways for all the wonderful website owners out there and absolutely love promoting other wahm's like myself however, at this time I am going to have to put the giveaways on the back burner.

I have received word from one of our past winner's that she has not received all of her prize donations.

Giveaways are fun but also a lot of work. I am trying to handle prize fulfillment's via email as we speak and until I get this taken care of all giveaways will be postponed.

I want to thank those wonderful sponsors out there that have already sent their prizes. You guys are wonderful!
