Hershey's Better basket Blog Hop

Thanks to my blog Buffy Kayla of The Eclectic Element, I was included in a great cause that's going on brought to you by Hershey's and a ton of different online bloggers!

Here is some information on the Hershey's Better Basket Blog Hop:


"This Easter season Hershey is all about helping you to create Better Easter Baskets with their special limited edition Easter candies found at Walmart.

More importantly, Hershey wants to promote the idea of going good in our own communities. The Hershey Company is committed to making a difference in the communities where we live in, and has a heritage of giving back to the community."


Thanks to Hershey's and 20 different bloggers looking to blog for a good cause, baskets like the one above were created and given to charities of each bloggers choice to spread Hershey's ongoing message around: We are ALL working together to do good in and out of our own communities!

In addition to those 20 baskets donated to charity, Hershey's is also sponsoring a Better Basket Blog Hop where Hershey will donate $10 per blog post entry for the Children's Miracle Network, up to $5,000.

How fantastic is that!?

If you want to be apart of the blog hop, here are the rules:

* Copy and paste these rules to your blog post.
* Create a blog post giving a virtual Easter Basket to another blogger – you can give as many Virtual Baskets as you want.
* Link back to person who gave you an Easter Basket.
* Let each person you are giving a Virtual Easter Basket know you have given them a Basket.
* Leave your link at BetterBasket.info/BlogHop comment section. You can also find the official rules of this #betterbasket blog hop, and more information about Better Basket with Hershey’s there.
* Hershey’s is donating $10 per each blog participating to the Better Basket Blog Hop to Children’s Miracle Network (up to total of $5,000 by blog posts written by April 4th, 2010).
* Please note that only one blog post by each blog url will count towards the donation.

Featured on Shop Indie Online

Today I want to present to my readers an amazing web site that I had the luck to come across in my year on etsy. It's called Shop Indie Online and like the name says inform people about new findings inside the handmade world.
The blog owner is Chris, also owner of a cute jewelry shop on etsy.

Heart to Heart - Jungle Love Heart Pendant

I exchanged several messages with Chris and she's very kind and patient and I truly admire the job that she's doing on her blog. I had the honor to be featured several time with some of my creations and this time you can find a small interview that I had with Chris.


If you'd like to be interviewed too, it's really easy, just send an email to Chris and she will hook you up.
Also I'd like to show to the many indie sellers out there a wonderful opportunity to advertise their business through this site.
Chris is collecting money for a good cause in exchange to feature items in her gift guides. Go take a peek and for $1 you can donate money to the charity and have you ad displayed.
It's also possible to buy ad spaces for $5/month of the the side bar of the site and have you shop added to their directory or submit your giveaway hosted elsewhere for FREE.
I'm telling you, this site is a good source of traffic and good karma, the best thing in the word!
