			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>This giveaway is now closed. Thanks to all who entered.<strong> Congrats to #70 Francheska,</strong><strong> #88 L Christensen</strong><strong>, 220 Sav O&#8217;G, #390 Kathryn</strong>. Have fun getting crafty with your cordless glueguns!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.gluegun.net/" target="_blank">GlueGun.net</a> is here today, as a Make and Takes sponsor, giving away 4 of these awesome cordless glue guns!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.gluegun.net/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10960" title="Cordless Glue Gun" src="http://www.makeandtakes.com/wp-content/uploads/Cordless-Glue-Gun-Only-18.95-with-FREE-SHIPPING_1279776440862.png" alt="" width="346" height="398" /></a></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s just talk for a minute about how fabulous a cordless glue gun could be! With my current glue gun, I&#8217;m always crafting right near a wall, close to an outlet. It&#8217;s not an ideal spot for most crafty projects. Hot glue gets on the cord, then on me, ouch! This cordless glue gun could solve so many crafty messes from happening, letting me be free to move all around my craft area! Wahoo!</p>
<p><strong>The Cordless Glue Gun has these qualities:</strong></p>
<ul>
<blockquote>
<li>Cordless for comfort and safety</li>
<li>High temperature for better bonding</li>
<li>Works with metal, wood, ceramics, leather, porous and non-pourous materials</li>
<li>High quality construction</li>
</blockquote>
</ul>
<p>And 4 of you will be the new owners of one of these cordless babies! See below for giveaway details.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">______________________________________________________________</p>
<p><strong>Giveaway Entries:</strong> For your chance to win <strong>one of 4 Cordless Glue Guns</strong>, leave a comment on this post by Thursday July 29th @ midnight, telling me what project you might use your new <a href="http://www.gluegun.net/" target="_blank">cordless glue gun</a> for! I’ll announce the winner chosen from random on Friday morning July 30th. Good Luck!</p>

<p>This giveaway is the perfect addition to your summer of fun. <a href="http://www.klutz.com/index/" target="_blank">Klutz</a>, a Make and Takes sponsor, is giving away 5 <a href="http://www.klutz.com/crafts/kids/Glossy-Bands?eml=KLUTZ/mrkt/20100427/acq/bighoncho////blogGlossyBands////" target="_blank">Glossy Bands books</a> = 5 winners! These stretchy bracelets are fun to make and share with friends, the perfect &#8220;make and take&#8221;!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.klutz.com/crafts/kids/Glossy-Bands?eml=KLUTZ/mrkt/20100427/acq/bighoncho////blogGlossyBands////" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10747" title="GlossyBands" src="http://www.makeandtakes.com/wp-content/uploads/GlossyBands1.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="445" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Chances are good that you’ve never seen anything quite like a <strong>Glossy Band</strong>.  Simply take our special, non-toxic, acrylic gel and squeeze out dots of color following the patterns in our book. Then use the swirling stick to make fancy designs. Once the bracelet is dry, wrap it around your wrist, and you’ve made your first Glossy Band: a beautiful, durable, completely wearable piece of art. <strong>Glossy Bands</strong> comes with 4 colors of gel, clear plastic work surface, swirling sticks, and <strong>Klutz</strong> clear instructions for tons of bracelet designs.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Here&#8217;s a quick video showing how to make these <a href="http://www.klutz.com/crafts/kids/Glossy-Bands?eml=KLUTZ/mrkt/20100427/acq/bighoncho////blogGlossyBands////" target="_blank">Glossy Bands</a>:</p>

<p>First up is <a href="http://thanksgivingpoint.com/" target="_blank">Thanksgiving Point</a> located in Lehi, Utah. We love this place for so many reasons. The farm is our favorite, my kids love to feed the animals and love to ride the horses. We&#8217;ve also like visiting our ancient friends, the dinosaurs, at their <a href="http://thanksgivingpoint.com/visit/museum_of_ancient_life/about.html" target="_blank">Museum of Ancient Life</a>. And they have <a href="http://thanksgivingpoint.com/visit/gardens/about.html" target="_blank">beautiful gardens</a>, I mean it&#8217;s huge, goes on forever. You can even rent a segway scooter and cruise all around, or head over to their amazing <a href="http://thanksgivingpoint.com/visit/gardens/about.html" target="_blank">Children&#8217;s Discovery Gardens</a> perfect for little ones.</p>
