I am SO excited to host the latest giveaway sponsored by Novica for a $50.00 gift certificate! They have the most unique finds from home decor to jewelry and handbags to corporate gifts.
For many years, artisans around the world tried to obtain loans so they could expand their businesses. Unfortunately, most could not obtain loans, and when they did, the interest rates were very high. Novica cut out all the financial middlemen and took the matter into their own hands by launching the microfinance website where customers can purchase products and lend money directly to artisans. With no middlemen involved in the process, these Artisan Loans will carry 0% interest. Not only can you purchase unique and "eco-friendly, green treasures" from some very gifted artisans but you can also sponsor their businesses by loaning them funds for their trade.
Check out some of my favorite picks from their site:
To enter the giveaway for the $50.00 gift certificate:
1. Become a follower on Three Men and a Lady.
2. Go to the Novica website.
3. Leave a comment on this post letting me know what your favorite treasure is.
*** You can get an extra entry if you post about this giveaway on:
a. Facebook.
b. Twitter.
c. Your blog.
Giveaway will end on Tuesday, March 1st at midnight and winner will be picked via Random.org.
