Baby BNR Bash

There it is...the big twin belly.  Like I warned you all, I'm not very photogenic.  I'm better behind the camera. LOL

BABY BNR BASH OPEN AT http://www.etsy.com/treasury/MTI4NDExNDh8OTExODM3NTgy/opening-at-10am-baby-bnr-bash-with

2. Wait for curator ok.

3. Post your purchase amount & transaction # .

Baby BNR

UPDATE! New prizes added all the time.

ALSO...I will post the BNR link on my blog on tuesday along with some clues that people have been asking for to help guess.  I will also try to post a photo of my belly to help you with your guesses!


Tuesday October 18, I, together with my etsy friends will be running a fun Baby BNR Bash!
We're hoping to open at 10am etsy time (9am CST) and run for 12 hours, maybe more if we can get enough curators!

So, what's a Baby BNR Bash you wonder?

Well, with each minimum purchase buy in of $5, you receive a ticket to be entered for some great prizes.

Each ticket entitles you to a guess at the information of when my twins will be born along with sizes and genders and such.

The closest guess will win a prize pack.  There will be upto 4 prize packs to be won.

Don't want to buy in but get some tickets?  There will be tickets awarded for refering people as well.  Details will all be posted  when we open.
