GIVE AWAY Commenting = Porcelain!

It's your lucky day!

Tell all your friends!!!!! Just by leaving a comment with your input and contact info - you could win a small porcelain figurine by Endless Whimsy!

Yes I have ulterior motives for this - and I'll be totally honest, I need info on a couple of things:

1. What do you think about three column blog? Is it easier to read? Is there anything you'd like to see?

2. Where should I take the kitties - the porcelain ones. Should I make a line of solid colors? Neutrals? Vibrants? Prints? Polka Dots? What do you think?

3. I need to find out how much shipping is and what kind of packaging I'll need to use for porcelain so it's just a win win situation for you!

The Details:

All you have to do is leave a comment to this post pertaining to the three column blog or the porcelain and I'll input your name into a random generator. I'll draw a winner on February 1st. I'll notify the winner on February 1st, but if I don't hear from you by February 4th a new winner will be chosen. If you win, it would be great to give me feedback either privately or via a blog about the porcelain. It's not necessary, but would be appreciated as I'm doing this for personal growth~ P. S. even though I'm working through some issues with cracking, the porcelain figure I will send you will not be cracked - BONUS!

Please tell all your friends to hop on over and give some feedback, if they mention you - I'll put your name in for every referral you have.

Renovia, I love your porcelain work! I even like 'em unglazed a lot but when I saw them glazed in Flickr and with all the details, I just thought they were the cutest ever!!

I recently changed to a 3 column blog myself and I'm not sure about it either - somehow yours seems a lot calmer then mine. I need to reconsider this too...
I think I'll come and peek at all the answers here! ;)

I love the porcelain kitties too. My favorites are the ones with flowers - I guess those are "print"?

The three column blog looks good to me. I made mine three column because I had so much stuff that I wanted to put in the sidebars (I still want to add more, but how much can people read?!)

I'll definitely link to your giveaway in tomorrow's post :)

They're wicked cute! Can I please see them on Sunday??? XD

I like the 3 column - it works really well, and is "clean" looking.

My favourites are the print too. The prints look fantastic with the glossy finish. The flowers were gorgeous :)

Good luck!

i love the new porcelains! very 'dressy' looking!

I like the porcelain one with the little teeny heart on the flank--that is super sweet--I like simple/subtle stuff like that, with just a hint of whimsy, so my only suggestion would be to come up with more things like that--where there is just one distinctive small creative detail that makes the whole thing pop.

The 3 column blog looks good to me too--it's readable :)

thanks for your comments on my blog by the way--I'm torn about the nose thing--i had it white before and it just stood out too much--it was distracting--so I made it more muted. Hmm...

Hi! Love the porcelain but I'm a solid colour kinda girl....

And as for the 3 columns, well, I don't want to be the only one but I like the 2 column better. I feel like there's too much to try to look at all at once with 3. But that's just my opinion.

I love the new porcelain kitties :)

I like the solids in neutral tones with a hint of personalization (like your one with the heart). I think too much pattern becomes "noisy" but that's just my own taste.

As far as the blog format, I like the 2 column view myself..less distracting.

Hi! We came over from Mishkat. We understand the need for three columns and often think that there is so much space wasted with only two. It works for your blog as it is a clean design. We love the unicoloured kitties with the little heart on their sides...
Hopefully you'll get good comments!
Purrs!

The central block looks a bit squished to me, less easy to read. Can it be made a bit wider? It's the most important bit after all.

Kitties in Porcelain - I love bright colours, so I would go with that anyway. The white one with the red/blue (?) patterns on was lovely. Are you thinking of trying new stuff like Amy Butler inspired flowers, or polka dots, onces inspired by different artists?

I have three columns on my blog but it looks wider than yours - not sure why. Oh and my Mac shows a weird side bar effect in the middle of the questions........

Well, I like the 3 column blog since that's what I have! It's hard to please everyone with our blogs so just go with your gut and we'll all still read it!

As for the kitties, I love all your work but I'd like to see more with hearts or other prints on them. It adds just a touch of whimsy.

Thanks for the opportunity to win with this giveaway!

I like the three-column blog. (I am scared to move mine over.) The porcelain kitties are great...I'm a fan of solid, vibrant colors, but I also like the single flowers.

One of my colleagues was admiring my Walter and Harvey sculptures yesterday! Such wonderful work!

Hey Renovia! I think the 3 column blog looks good. I love the porcelain cats as well as the other ones that you do. I would like to see the cats done in all kinds of different ways.

I liked the plain coloured porcelain kitty with the heart on the side.

I think it's very classy.

Hey!

I don't mind this 3 column blog format... but I agree, I wish the middle column were wider. It's not that anything is hard to read, but your blog might look classier and cleaner with more space dedicated to the main column :~)

You know I love the porcelain kitties! I like them best all smooth with a repeating pattern, like the small flowers.
