Today is the last day of Random Acts of Kindness Week. I celebrated a few days ago with Michaels by making DIY gift boxes for friends . . . today I’m doing a giveaway for all of you to finish out the celebration.
If you’ve been wanting to purchase my new book Mod Podge Rocks but haven’t had the funds, the world just became a brighter place! Not only am I giving away five copies of my book today (signed), but I’m also going to include a $5 Michaels gift card with each so that you can buy something fun for yourself. Or maybe you’d like to spend the money to make a craft it forward project of your very own. It’s up to you!
Did you know that you can get my book at Michaels? Yep, in the Mod Podge aisle.
Michaels is participating in Random Acts of Kindness Week, Feb. 11-17, by asking customers to share their own random acts of kindness on the Michaels Facebook page and to use the hashtag #RAOKDIY when sharing on Twitter and Instagram. Customers who want to “craft it forward” can find inspiration for Random Acts of Kindness projects to give to others on the Michaels Random Acts of Crafting Pinterest board.
Enter the contest to win below and we’ll select five winners!
Blogger who loves the color blue and sock monkeys. You can find me in public easily— I'm wearing glasses and lots of stripes.
I like making baked goods and.leaving them with a pretty handmade card
I love to stop families/couples in the park and offer to take a family picture. Too often “Mom” is not in pictures.
I may send out a few cards that I normally wouldn’t – ” just because” cards.
I would love to have your book!
The only thing close to a RAOK this week I guess is that I listened to my sister for almost three hours blow off steam after a really bad week. It’s the least I can do. She leads a very busy life with a full time job, work on her master’s and a husband all to look after. She thanked me profusely afterward and she seemed in much better humor so I reckon it did some good
Would LOVE to win this….thank you
How cool! I have seen your book at Michaels, but have not had the chance to check it out. I love mod podgeables!
I like helping random strangers find things in stores. Sad, but true. You can never find a store person when you need one.
Recently, I have been thinking about baking and taking it to the Ronald McDonald House that I pass on my way to work. This just might give me the push to do it. =)
The best part about the RAOK is the RANDOM part. A couple times a year I get little gifts for everyone in my section of our office, and since it is all about not knowing who did it I also get one for myself. I then type a note to someone outside of our office asking him to give one to each person (including me) and thank them for being a part of our team. Great fun to watch everyone ask everyone else (including me) if they know who it is from.
I would so love to win your book……
I would love to win! I have been very intrigued by modgepodge and finally bought my first jar in spite of my limited funds. I have a project for a phone cover that you inspired.
I would like to bake something, and give to someone as an unexpected gift.
I love surprising people with random craft supplies. Whenever I get stuff I can’t use, it goes into a special tub and I’ll occasionally pull stuff out as a RAK.
I would love to send a friend of mine several hundreds of dollars to help with their rent. I can’t afford that, but I do babysit for her often!
I try to do little (and big when possible) things for people whenever I can. It helps them and it makes me feel good too so it’s a win-win situation. Love your website and would love to check out your book!
I like to give random people compliments to hopefully make their day brighter! Sometimes it is the simple things that go a long way! Thanks for the great giveaway!
Leave a huge tip
I would so love to win one of your books. Love to use Mod Podge!!!
This is great! I got my neighbor hooked on MP and this would be a great gift for her!
I would Love to win some mod podge , one for me and another bottle to send to a friend for Random Act of Kindness.
Would love to win a copy , I just started using modge pogde last year ,and there are just so many things to do with it , but always needing new ideas .
Thanks for the giveaway .You rock
I’d love to win your book and can always use some fun money for Michael’s purchases!
I would love to win a signed copy of mod podge book by you!! Oh wow! That would be super super cool! Thanks for the chance!
whenever we go to the library we make sure to carry extra yummies so if we see a homeless person we can hand them a bag of goods.
Give my nieces handmade necklaces.
I think every week should be random acts of kindness week!
I love leaving notes in library books. If it’s a self-help book, I leave a note with encouraging words, or if it’s a cookbook I share a favorite recipe of mine.
I like to call a friend out of the blue and send the couple on a date and I keep the kids.
We have elderly people next door and I like to clean up their yard for them when they are not home! Surprise!
Mod Podge has changed my life! I can’t get enough and just love opportunities to craft!!
I’ve always thought it would be very cool to be able to go to the restaurants with the young couples, ro young families with the little bitty ones, and pay for their meal, or the service person, and pay for THEIR meal. Those times when others did that for us were so humbling, and such a blessing!
*OR young couples
This is a fantastic oopportunity! I bake and craft for fun, i like to share this with the people around me
My favorite thing to do is feed people, so I would probably surprise someone with some baked goodies. Thanks for the chance at your fabulous book!
I have 3 people on my list to send something too. For one, I am thinking of a camera strap as she is a photographer.
I’m always on the lookout for the little things I can do… hold a door for someone with their hands full, return a grocery cart for the person next to me…. It’s amazing what a very tiny gesture can do to brighten someone’s day!
I would love to leave handmade stuffed animals around for people to find and take! Even grown-ups need something cute to squeeze and brighten their day.
I like to do things like share from my garden – herbs, veggies, etc. I also like to send in baked goods to my husband’s work so he can share with his students. My kids love to make cookies or order a pizza for the guys at our volunteer fire department.
I’ve been wanting to get this for some time too. Thanks for the giveaway and for the chance to win it!!
Hugs,

Baked goods for people who don’t have the time (or skills) to bake
I’d love to make some meals for some of our church members that have a harder time getting around. Many of them get meals delivered from a local program so I need to orchestrate a night that they don’t get one delivered and make them hot and delicious!
Not gonna lie, I really deeply hope I win this. I have had this book on my wish list since before my birthday (September). *crossing fingers very strongly*.
I love to offer my babysitting services so the neighbor ladies can get a break from their children!
I like the look on peoples faces when they receive something completely unexpected – PRICELESS!!
I purchased your book some time ago and love it. Would love a copy to share with my daughter.
As a random act of kindness I think it would be cool to pay for the person’s food behind me in the drive through.
I’d share any of my craft supplies to my friends.
If I could afford it I would pay someone’s lunch/dinner but I have bought someone’s coffee at the gas station.
I may send out a few cards as unexpected gifts.
Sounds cheesy but whenever one of my girlfriends break up with/get dumped by a guy we gather a bunch of girls together and do a crafting party. A bottle (or two) of wine, crafty projects, some gossip…makes for a fun night.
I would like to make cards for a retirement center to cut out that cost in their budget.
We have actually done this, and we try to do it around Christmas time. When we go to a restaurant, and have a nice dinner, give the waiter/waitress a $100 bill, and tell them to keep the change. The expression on their faces is priceless!
I like helping people when I go to the grocery. Like if they can’t find something, I try and help.

I would pay for spa services for women shelter residents for a day. The way you feel effects so much in your life.
My favorite RAOK was at christmas when I made 30 ornaments for everyone at the salon I work for and surprised them all!
Thank you for this chance. Mod Podge really does rock!
Great contest! Love your blog!
I would love your book although I am not sure i need any more ideas! I love love love love the creative offerings mod-podge brings
I will brighten someone’s day by making and sending some snail mail cards
Love anything Mod Podge
I would LOVE to win your book, run to Michaels and buy some ModPodge and make something fun!
I just like to unexpectedly help people who could use help but often won’t ask–helping someone get something off the top shelf at the grocery store (I am tallish), take their cart in the grocery store parking lot (or give them mine), help someone carry a huge load of books into the library, make silly faces to help a screaming baby settle down. Simple easy things that make people happy
I would love to suprise a overworked single parent with free babysitting and a gift card to go out for some time alone!
*an overworked single parent =)
i would love to win your book.
I made a bucket full of stuff for door prizes at my church
I am in the process of making an afghan for a friend. I haven’t told her that I am doing this so I am hoping that she will be surprised and happy to get it.
Lovely giveaway!
I love to give small gifts or treats to others. My favorite was finding an Elvis M&M guy and leaving it on co-worker (who is obsessed with Elvis) desk! She still talks about it and has no idea who it is from. I’d love to be able to help out someone monetarily in a RAOK.
I mod podge coasters & randomly give them to the teller who helps me at the bank or the carry out boy or etc. etc. I always put alittle heart with “thanks” in the corner.
would love to pass on some unused crafty goods to someone who could really put them to good use.
Bring a single friend a meal
We are mod podging vases and putting battery operated candles in them and leaving them on desks <3
I love your blog and would love to win your book. Sometimes I give the fast food drive thru cashier a little extra money to help pay for the food in the car behind me.
I would surprise someone who is unfortunate with a gift basket of food, essentials, and some small luxuries!!
I would knit some prayer shawls and bring them to local churches.
I like to send cards to let people know how important they are to me. Thanks for the giveaway.
Baking cookies and giving them away
I would LOVE to have your book then I can do random acts of kindness all the time! I love crafting and usually give things away when people comment on them, that way I feel good the surprised person feels good too. Love your blog by the way, thanks for the wonderful ideas
Mod Podge is great! I would certainly love to have this book with all its inspirational projects!
I’d love to have the money and time to knit wool hats and scarves for anyone who needed them.
i love to bake and give to my friends
Awesome giveaway. My random act of kindness would include a stack of tags, cards, and bookmarks with encouraging words, being left anywhere and everywhere for anyone and everyone to find.
I would love to be entered to win this! I’ve got your book on my wishlist, didn’t know you could purchase it at Michael’s! Love that store.

Today is my birthday so I think I might go to breakfast and buy someone’s breakfast in the little cafe who is not expecting their meal to be paid for!
I would love to leave some money to pay for part of the next person’s purchase.
