Blog News!!!

(Button made by Kim at 733!)

I am really excited to take my kids to Disneyland. They've heard A LOT about it from other people, but haven't got to experience the joy...yet. After we got our very late tax return, we planned a trip to Disneyland! Since I will be gone for about a week (from Oct. 3 through 9), I will be holding "Disney Days" at Someday Crafts.

.

What is "Disney Days?" I will be featuring tutorials, ideas, tips and hopefully some giveaways related to Disney characters and Disneyland! There will be some very cool ideas you will want to bookmark for your next Disney trips or for your kids who love Disney characters!

.

SEND ME LINKS TO YOUR DISNEY POSTS!!! I'm looking for anything that corresponds with the theme of "Disney Days!" If you have a giveaway, I will be charging a reduced rate of $5! That's cheap to advertise your business. Since I don't know how many submittals I will get, I don't know how long "Disney Days" will run. It will be sometime between Oct. 3- Oct. 9. Stay tuned for a week of fun! Take the button, paste it on your blog to prepare for "Disney Days."

Categorically Crafting Fridays!

Because I do have a part-time job working at a Montessori and have young kids, I am thinking about cutting back on Friday's Categorically Crafting. It takes a lot of time to compile a lot of posts of a certain topic on a weekly basis. For now, I am looking for bloggers who would like to compile the round-up for the category. At the top, I will post you button and a link to your blog as the compiler. You can choose the category and even feature one project from you blog. If you are interested in advertising you blog in this way, please send me an email at somedaycrafts@gmail.com

Changes in Advertising

Also, I am happy/sad to announce some changes in my advertising. Because my rates have been so low, I have been overwhelmed with the people and businesses who want to use my blog as a way to increase their business. I am thrilled to help mommy business and other crafty business, but there is no way that I can keep up with the requests I have received and keep a high quality blog! I will not let this blog become a blog of advertising! I have tried to keep it to one giveaway a week and one business spotlight a week. Hopefully, you as viewers, appreciate that! I would also appreciate you checking out the businesses who do sponsor my blog. Click on the buttons on my sidebar, enter the giveaways, take a look at the reviews/spotlights! Without these, I would be forced to get either another part-time job or go full-time!

.

The following are the changes in advertising. If you have contacted me before this post about advertising and have not yet been billed yet, the former rate applies. My rates are still MUCH lower than blogs that receive similar traffic. I will now be offering advertising at the bottom of posts.

3 months button on sidebar - $35

.

Button at the bottom of a post - $2 (minimum of 3 posts)

.
