areyoutryingtodeduceme: Giveaways sort of cheer me up. I like them. They make me happy, and they make you happy. And I’m having a weirdish day, and need a happy boost, so I’m doing a mini give away over the weekend! Here’s the lowdown: There will be THREE winners. First place winner (first name drawn) will win:-A 12”X18” print of John -A 12”X18” print of Sherlock-AND any ONE of my fandom teas available on Adagio  Second place winner (second name drawn) will win:-ONE of the prints, their choice of John or Sherlock-any ONE of my fandom teas Third place winner (last name drawn) will win: -EITHER their choice of one of the prints (John or Sherlock) OR their choice of a fandom tea TO ENTER: Reblog ONLY UP TO 2 TIMES until FRIDAY September 14, 11:59 PM EST because I’m weird. I’ll be able to tell if you went nutso and reblogged a million times. Likes WILL count too. Why not. So that’s a total of three entries possible per person. I will NOT count blogs that are used exclusively for reblogging giveaways. Those things never seem…. right, you know? You don’t have to be following me to win, you just have to have your ask open. A HUGE NOTE: I can ship THE PRINTS to Australia and New Zealand, but I CANNOT ship the teas there. I think there might be some other countries that also don’t allow shipment of teas. If you’re not sure if you can get the tea in your country, please check Adagio’s shipping policy. If you win and you’re in one of those countries and I can’t send you tea, we’ll figure out an alternate. That said, yeah, this is open to anyone in the world, just make sure you have your parents permission if you’re under 18

ihavebeensherlocked: Time for Week Two of Fandom Tea Blends Giveaways! This week’s tea blend is one of the most popular and perfect for desert tea lovers! Read below for more reviews/information on the tea, and how to win your own bag of it, as well as an ingenuiTEA tea pot! THE MYCROFT BLEND: No brother, I have not been eating more cake. I’ve been drinking it. (chocolate chip, rooibos vanilla chai, cream) MY REVIEW OF IT: “The smell of this tea in the bag reminds me strongly of Pfeffernusse, those German Pepper cookies you get at Christmas. Mostly spice, but coated with chocolate on the bottom. Sweet, wonderful nostalgia. I could cry. And oh my god it even tastes like that brewed up. I’m sort of amazed right now. I was trying to blend a tea that would be reminiscent of a piece of chocolate cake but I’m so happy with what I got. The tea is a little bit bitter on it’s own, but again, it reminds me of spice cookies. The chocolate taste is really nice and mellow, but the spices aren’t too strong either. It all just works really well together. I actually like it just fine on it’s own, but adding a little cream and sugar makes this tea feel decadent. Definitely a Mycroft tea.” WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING: “A very smooth and sweet taste which makes it a good tea to have in the evening with dessert. Smells amazing and goes well with a little milk and sugar.”-Holly C. “This tea really does taste like I’m drinking a cake, whether or not sweetener is added. It’s a wonderful chai blend.”-Yulia S. ” This is…MOTHER OF GOD. Once you go Mycroft, you cannot go back apparently. I literally drink four cups a night while working on my thesis. Just….fabulous. It’s perfectly toasty and lightly sweet and best done with just a splash of cream.”-Beth P. “This blend smells, tastes and feels decadent and amazing. The mix of chocolate and vanilla chai makes it a lovely dessert tea. A perfect representation of Mycroft Holmes as a character.”-Arizona D. “This blend smells amazing. I seriously wanted to stick my whole face in the bag. It has a light vanilla/chai flavor that goes very well with a bit of cream.“-Nikki N. HOW TO WIN: You may reblog this post ONCE a day for the next week. I’ll go through the notes and use a random number generator to chose a winner the evening of MARCH 24th You have to reblog! Likes wont count! Due to customs, people in Australia and New Zealand are not eligible just because we can’t ship tea there Q_Q I’m sorry! Just to clarify: The prize this week is The Mycroft Blend as well as an IngenuiTEA Tea Pot.

Holiday Sherlock art giveaway thing!

I’ll send one winner a set of these signed prints (select Sherlock artwork that I’ve done), and MAYBE send out a couple of random prints to “runner-ups” - these are matte prints, printed with a color laser jet on reasonably nice thick paper. Signed and dated with a silver Sharpie!

  • Reblog to enter! I only officially count reblogs, although liking it too doesn’t hurt. Winner will be decided by a random number raffle.
  • I don’t really care how many times you reblog it, but let’s be reasonable. I will be deciding the reasonableness.
  • You DON’T have to be following me (although dunno why you’d want these prints if you weren’t…!)
  • I’ll ship anywhere in the world! Prints will come in a rigid photo-mailer by USPS.
  • Please make sure you have your askbox open or somewhere I can contact you if you win!
  • Ends Monday, December 19th. Winner(s) will be announced on my blog. The prints will NOT be shipped until January probably though, because I am going on vacation for the last two weeks of December!

The winning packages from my last giveaway HAVE been mailed out, sorry for the delay!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE, and let’s all celebrate the announcement of SHERLOCK SERIES 2!!! TOGETHER!!

Visit my print shop if you’d actually like to buy a print! :)
