I made dinner for my brother’s family, my sister’s family, and my mom and dad tonight. Then I bundled it up and sent it home with them to be baked. I like the way a house smells with dinner cooking.
Hi there! I found out about you from Erin S.!
I have wanted to get some of this twine for some time now!
So my nice thing was that I started a card drive for my friend who was diagnosed with breast cancer 5 weeks ago. I started the drive last week and so far I have about 70 girls all signed up and sending me cards. I have received about 20 cards and started giving them to my friend just yesterday! She cried when I told her what I was doing! It was so special!
Thanks for the opportunity to win some of this fabulous twine!!!!
HUGS!

In the grocery store parking lot I usually try to take back a shopping cart for someone who looks overwhelmed or tired. Someone did that for me when I was pregnant and carrying my todler and probably looked both tired and overwhelmed. It was a little thing that was so appreciated so I just try to pay it forward as they say.
I’d love to win your giveaway. Thanks.
I’ve been helping a friend with a website she is creating for a non-profit organization she is involved in since I have a background in HTML and CSS.
I gave away 3 boxes of Girl Scout cookies. People love that!
I did post about this on my blog:

Thanks Whitney, you are fabulous! Teresa
Hi there!
I hosted a family dinner because my cousins college baseball team was in CA for a tournament. It was so much fun. Does that count as something nice? Hope so. Love love love the twine! I’ve been eying it for quite some time now.
I gave two bunches of daffodils to my co-worker for her birthday, along with a nice letterpress card and a hug!
Thank you for this giveaway! Maybe I’ll get lucky!
For my second entry, I tweeted about this giveaway (@mollydea):
Love Divine Twine? (Dumb question, I know). Whitney has a sweet giveaway! (plus the URL to this post)
I rescued my neighbor’s dogs who had escaped from her backyard and were quickly leaving our neighborhood. One of the dogs is almost completely blind and my neighbor had just left for work for the day. I ended up cancelling my plans for the rest of the day because I couldn’t figure out how they were getting out of their fence and I couldn’t leave them alone or they would have been lost forever.
I made cookies for my husband. He loves chocolate chip cookies, is nice to surprise him when he gets home after a long day:) thanks
Hi,
Today my mom cracked the screen of her laptop. I had just gotten a new one and I have given it to her until hers is fixed. I love my momma.

I baked Moringa cupcakes for my family and made a logo for my cousin’s just-starting clothing business.
The Divine Twine is…well divine!
This week I dropped of some supplies for my kiddo’s classrooms. By this time of the year the teachers can use a little updating of their supply closets.
I patiently listened to a friend rant until she felt much better about her problems and offered my two cents on the matter at hand.
I love baking for my families and they love anything I bake for them. Recently I have made my 2 beautiful kids crayon roll holder and they loved it because mommy made it for them. It’s in my blog, hope you go check it out. Good Luck to the winners
I’m such a huge fan of Divine Twine!
My favourite nice thing to do is to leave secret “you can do it – remember you’re awesome!” post-it notes on my colleague’s monitors while they’re away from their desk if they’re having a relly bad day. Everyone loves people to notice they’re doing a good job and it can really perk people up!

Our lift is about to be in maintenance for 1 month.
I organised a planning last sunday to manage our older neighbors’ food shopping during the reparation.
We young will shop and climb the stairs for them.
3 flats per level, 11 levels, around 16 old people to help… this month will be busy!
I love your creative ideas involving Divine Twine. I’d love to win some myself!
I repaired some jewelry for a friend this weekend. My friends and family know that I’m always good for fixing broken or damaged jewelry!

Hi Whitney! I’ve done several nice things this week! But none of them holds a candle to what “LollyChops” did…please re-read her post in your comments about starting a card-drive for a friend…and then give her an extra entry, she can have mine. She really deserves to win!

A little time ago I bought a lottery ticket in my local supermarket. The girl behind the counter asked me if i wanted a specific number on the end. I just told her I wanted a winning ticket! She sad: allright but only if I would share the prize with her! I promise! She was just joking but when I won 7 euro’s I went back and bought her a bunch of flowers! I brought a priceless smile to her face!
I am a fan of Divine Twine! Just posted it on my blog!

Hello, I try to do nice things for people and animals every day, just small things, so I can’t really think of anything big to tell you! If I don’t do something nice I always try to say something nice
What a fabulous giveaway! I love your twine and the Divine Twine flickr group. Yesterday I had a horrible exam and I made a “Good Luck” card for my friend that was also sitting the exam (when I should have been studying) out of study materials, stamps and Japanese masking tape.
Also, tonight I’m baking (which I can do now that my exam is over!) for the nurses on my ward because they work so hard and are often unappreciated.
Such a nice give-away.. love the twine!
My nice act was that I made some bread for my MIL and FIL.
It was fun and they loved it. 
Thanks for the give-away!

I tweeted!!

I made a double batch of my DH’s fav soup and some homemade bread yesterday. Poor guy has a cold and isn’t feeling the greatest.

I helped my friends daughter with her resume. And she got the job! Yay!
Just a little thing . . . My husband has been staying up late working, so I left a big bag of Swedish Fish (his favorite!) next to the computer with a note, “You’re the only fish in the sea for me!”
i helped my mother find a traveling case for my sister’s sewing machine so it could travel safely to and from nashville…

This post was mentioned on Twitter by AllisonWaken: DIVINE TWINE giveaway at Whisker Graphics. I love this stuff! http://bit.ly/a5XTmv...
I made cards to give out to kids with Cancer.
Oh what a great prize!
My something nice… I randomly sent out Thank You cards to my girlfriends, thanking them for their friendship
I sent my nephew a Lucky Charms lip balm (Target Dollar Spot) and a ‘Lucky Penny’. He is away at college and a little overwhelmed with school and his basemball schedule. So I thought a St Patty’s Day surprise was in order.
I baked up some treats for my husband’s band the other day. And let them invade my house all weekend so they could record.

My sister just had surgery so I have been spending time with her making sure she has what she needs. My other sister is having a birthday in may and the twine would be so perfect for the theme we have going.
I’ve been digging up my snowdrops to give to my neighbour so he can have some spring flowers after the long winter in his first ever garden. I think the purity of a little snowdrop is the perfect thing to bring optimism until Spring properly arrives and I can plant the cuttings I grew last year.
First of all, what a lovely little giveaway! Thank you for being so generous.
I noticed that my friends book bag was getting a little threadbare last time we were at the library so I made her a new striped canvas book bag.
I am having a family over for dinner tonight.
Poppy seed chicken! YUM!
I made cookies for my hubby who had a hard day. I also took care of some carts for some new parents who were trying to figure out how to deal with their carts and infants when I went to Target 2x today.
What a great requirement for a giveaway! Something nice I did… our cleaning lady at the office quit a few weeks back (she was running her own business but wasn’t making enough doing that) so we’ve been struggling a bit around here so… Tuesday is trash pick-up day so on Monday I went around to all of the offices, all of the bathrooms & took out everyone’s trash & recycling. Doesn’t sound too bad until you take into account that I work in an office with construction guys. They like chew…their trash is pretty disgusting. ‘nough said.
I put your giveaway up on my blog.
Something I did nice…………… I had some left over shrimp pasta salad we made for a party we had this past weekend and I packaged it up and took it to my Nana, who lives in a retirement center nearby. I knew she would enjoy it, and she did – almost ate it right away!
I found your website through the Gingerwood site.
I’ve been making “thinking of you” cards for a group of Haitian orphans that were affected by the devastating earthquake. One of the gals in our informal paper crafting group has a sister who runs an orphanage, so we want to show our support in a small way.
I’ve been helping take care of my soon-to-be nephews, family of my sweet fiance! They’re adorable, but tough to find a sitter for since they’re so difficult to handle. And they’re twins, to boot! They’re on Spring Break and they’re dad hasn’t been able to take off to be with them. In fact, we’ve been working on a few projects this baker’s twine would come in really handy for. Not to mention I’ve been eyeing it for about 100 wedding-related projects!
Planning our wedding has been so wonderfully fun and nice to share with our family!
I took care of my grandson this weekend because his parents both worked. I also took care of my son’s girlfriends’ daughter. Busy, busy, busy people. Great giveaway.
stamp on…
I attended an AMAZING event in Utah last November… Spark the Event… highly recommend it! anyhow, our lovely event planners created the most whimsical setting with coffee filter and paper doilie garlands strung on baker’s twine. Needless to say I am still feeding off the creative boost I received that weekend, and I would LOVE to get my hands on some twine to create garlands for my little sweetie’s 5th birthday!
I sent a zippy purse I had made to an unknown-to-me commenter on my flickr photo of it because she loved it.
Love your twine!
I delivered flowers to a neighbor without letting her know it was me. I delivered them while she was at work. Her son died of cancer ten years ago that day and she needed some cheering up. Felt so good to do it secretly!
I volunteered at my son’s school and I worked a shift for a friend who felt ill.
I love Baker’s Twine and want all the colors soooo bad!
I invited my friend and his one month old baby over to my house and told him to catch a nap in my guest room while I watched his baby. He was SO happy
