I wonder... I wonder if it would be okay with everyone if instead of using random.org to generate a winner for the Gorgeous Giveaway, we just very unrandomly choose Jane at My Pear Tree House. Jane is a long-time follower of Maxabella loves... and a fun, generous supporter of many of our blogs. And, oh my, she's going through a really, really tough time right now.
Please let me know via comment if you are okay to forfeit your entry and send all the prizes to Jane. If I get a enough comments saying 'yes' then that is what we will do. We'll send her a care package full of all these lovely handmade presents from all of us in the blogging community.
Thank you Posie Patchwork, Scissors Paper Rock, Mira Narnie, Ivy Designs and Loved for being open to this idea.
Please let us know.

What a beautiful idea x
sure
This is a wonderful sentiment Ms Bella.
I've just returned from a weekend away and reading through all the posts about and for Jane has left me wondering how I could possibly support her.
It would be terrific to know that your package of loveliness would be a bright light in what will undoubtedly be a hard time for Jane.
Count me in for a resounding YES!!!

I say be unrandom. Anything that might cheer up Jane sounds brilliant.
I can't actually remember if I entered or not but I think it's a wonderful idea. Get into the christmas spirit! Kellie xx
I didn't enter. But I think these gifts should 1 million percent go to Jane.
Trusting you on this...of course they should go to Jane!
Definately - such a thoughtful idea.
Please let me know the details, if I can send her something too please!!XXX
Absolutely. x
I actually cant remember if I enterd or not but I think its a wonderful idea x
I just wanted to say that I think its a beautiful thing to do, and I too didn't enter, but I would give up my entry in a heart beat.
Once again your beautiful soul is evident, the divine Ms M xox
Oh my goodness please do, don't even stop and think about it. It would be awesome to send her something so cool.
It sounds like a lovely idea! I can't remember if I entered but...
You're just super super nice!

Of course. Oh my goodness. What a burden she has ahead of her - let's hope it brightens her day, even for a few moments x
Oh my goodness, I cannot remember if I entered or not, but I think this is such a heartfelt and wonderful idea. My thoughts are with sweet Jane and her family and hugs to you ~ Tina xx
Jane totally deserves some good news right now! Let's hope some lovely gifts from her bloggy friends will be the beginning of her road to recovery. Poor pet x
I think one blogger is going to burst into tears when she sees all these lovely comments to this beautiful post :) I didn't enter. I say (anyway)... give, give, give to Jane!
Yes!!
But I'm still going to do my links to your contributers at the end of my post tomorrow night (just because I think they are great)
Oh and I think you are great for thinking of this :-)

Absolutely. I can't even imagine how Jane must be feeling.
DO IT
without question
Brilliant, Bron - go for it! J x
Of course you should. My thoughts are with her. xxx
FAB idea. My thoughts are with Jane and family XO
Absolutely and a lovely idea (I havent entered but thats besides the point!)
Absolutely yes!
I didnt enter either but if Ihad I would give up my place certainly! I had not seen Janes blog and am only new to yours but I sincerely hope that a little, and very beautiful, gift such as these can help her to smile at this time.
Send it away, express post!
Or maybe one gift at a time so she gets a little package of happiness every day for a week!
I cant remember if I entered, but you send her all the goodies and good wishes she can handle!
Oh yes! Please be unrandom and send the dear Jane these goodies. What a wonderfully perfect idea xo
I was sold at "She needs all the helps she could get right now"... warm fuzzies coming her way!
xx
That is so okay with me... Being unrandom sometimes is the best:)
YES definitely. And you are so sweet to think of it.
lovely lovely idea - sending my best wishes and support for Jane from here too x
Absolutely! I can't imagine what Jane must be going through right now.
Totally.... I think its a wonderful idea and gesture....
I think it's a wonderful idea! Leave it to you to think of it, Max...
what an incredibly sweet and beautiful idea and way to cheer up a fellow blogger. :) Of course I would have loved to win the giveaway, but I LOVE this idea way more! Good thinking. :)
Really lovely blog... glad I found it. I came over from Me, the man and the boat.
Okay by me.
I didn't enter the competition but that is a really beautiful gesture. xxx
Abso-bloody-lutely! I've just read Jane's post and have tears streaming down my face. Whatever we can do as a collective, we should.
No question - of course!
Was going to enter myself but if you think she needs it then go for it!
I think that's a good plan.
Jane deserves it. I think it's a fabulous idea!
I didn't get around to entering, but after reading Jane's story, I think you definitely need to be unrandom :)
That is such a beautiful gesture.x
unrandomness is the order of the day. yesyesyesyesyes, with lots and lots of love and best wishes to Jane.
What a lovely thing to do ☼
Awww what a sweet idea!
of course!!!
Sounds good to me!
What a beautiful gesture!
Just read this on Weekend Rewind today. How amazing these women are and the support within the blogging community continually astounds me. Puts some of the Huggies baby comp mums to shame! ;-)
I hope this warmed her heart and lifted her mood:)
I'm glad I got to see this on the Rewind. It makes me love this community all the more.
Stopping by from the rewind. Already a follower of your lovely blog.
I hope everyone agreed to this? How lovely!!

A perfect idea. I've not got an entry, so my voice doesn't count, but I wanted to acknowledge you for being so sweet and generous.
What a lovely start to my Sunday.
Was a great thought and a great response.
