Giveaway and Some Housekeeping

It was around this time a year ago that I launched this little boutique in blogland. It's been a fun and rewarding experience, with lots of late nights and too many trips to the post office. My family has been so supportive of "The Chock", as my husband refers to it, and I've made many new friends, both online and in person. So to celebrate the first anniversary of The Chocolate Zebra, I'm hosting my first giveaway! I'm offering a chance to win a $20 credit towards any item in my store. Just leave a comment stating which Chocolate Zebra item is your favorite, how you found my site, or just say hi. Make sure you leave your email address so I can contact you if you win. My "assistants" will draw the winning name on Saturday at noon, so check back and see if you're the lucky one!

On a related note, with only 2 days left of school, my productive sewing hours are about to dwindle significantly. I am looking forward to spending unlimited time with my girls at the pool, taking our family vacation to the beach and helping with my brother's wedding in July. I'll be closing up shop for the month of July, so I won't be able to take orders after June 15. If you've already contacted me regarding an order, I have you in the line-up and will get your item completed before I leave. When I return, I hope to have some fun new products to introduce to you. Please feel free to email me in the interim. I'll continue checking email and posting completed items, but I won't be working on orders until August. Happy Summer!
