Cheap Thrills

While trolling the Web for handmade gift ideas, I discovered Peg and her blog IvyArts. She is participating in a pay it forward handmade exchange based on the movie "Pay It Forward."

Here's more information from the IvyArts blog:

It’s the Pay It Forward Exchange. It’s based of the concept of the movie “Pay it Forward” where acts or deeds of kindness are done without expecting something in return, with hope that the recipients of the acts of kindness will continue to pass it on.

Ivy Arts says she'll make and send a handmade gift to readers who leave a comment on her blog and request to join the PIF exchange. Once you sign up, you must pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog.

I was one of the lucky participants on the Ivy Arts blog and received a pink quilted pillow along with a note saying "enjoy your pay it forward surprise!" I simply adore it!

I think is a great way to share your handmade goodies with others and I would love to offer the same PIF exchange right here on Cheap Thrills. The first three people (spammers not included) to comment to my post and share what they love about The Cheap Thrills blog will get a handmade gift. The handmade gifts will be revealed once we have winners! However, you must pay it forward and offer the same promise of a handmade gift on your own blog or Web site.
