Thank you for participating in my first giveaway/joint venture with Janice the Jewelry Lady of Premier Designs. What a great turnout! 13 comments were received at the time the giveaway ended. I think this is the most comments ever received on a single post. This is largely due to my first time being featured on #commenthour (find out more about it here). Also, I did receive great support in promoting the giveaway. The Jewelry Lady of Premier Designs invited her clients to Chase Joy with me. Check out her page here. If you are in the Philadelphia or Maryland area and think you would like to have a Premier Designs party shoot the Jewelry Lady an email (ladyjjeweler@gmail.com). Two Lovely Lady Bloggers invited their followers to Chase Joy with me. Moms In Boyland has a great funny and informative blog about being the Mom of 3 boys (check it out here). Curvey Journeys is a self esteem boosting page about women being encouraged to show a healthy, more curvaceous figure to the world (check it out here). Please check out both of their pages.
The two questions you had to answer to be in the running for the giveaway were:
1) What is your favorite piece of jewelry or (something else) that you wear regularly that fills you with Joy and
2) Which of my past posts is your favorite and why?
Of the comments received, 6 were eligible for the Giveaway. I put the names into the list randomizer on http://www.random.org/. Results are as follows:

Thank you all for Participating in my 1st giveaway. Who knew giving out free stuff would give me a little Joy.
If you blog do you or will you have any kind of giveaway? Why or why not?
BAM! You are so very welcome. I'm glad that your Joy Pins bring you so much JOY! Thank you for sharing your positive thoughts here on Chasing Joy! TGIF! And have a blessed weekend!

HELLO! I am ~bam~ (for this one blog post you can refer to me as 'THE WINNER'…OK, so i was selected at random, but it STIL COUNTS! HAHA!) and am writing to let everyone know that Chasing Joy followed through on her promise of a wonderful prize! So glad i took the few minutes to leave a comment 🙂
And many thanks to the Jewelry Lady – I LOVE the "JOY" pins and can't wait to try them on a scarf, my lapel, and my jackets (will have to wait until this 100 degree heat passes through for that!)!
Also, I told Chasing Joy that they will hold a very special meaning to me around the Christmas season as well.
So thank you for my GIFT and many thanks for sharing your life, your thoughts and your positive outlook with all of us!!!!! ~bam~
