Congratulations to Sage103082 and +1 to ddickinson for the giveaway and for folding all the raffle papers 4 times, that's a lot of extra effort so props for that!

I decided to use an old wooden chest that I found in the attic for the raffles, instead of my plain cardboard box. It's not the biggest chest, so I thought it would be best to make each entry small. Four folds would have probably been okay, but eight folds doesn't seem to get stuck together when I'm shuffling the entries in the box. Plus it's more fun unfolding the winner when you have more fools to unfold.

Now if only I can get the chest to play a drum roll while I'm picking the winner :).

Ha, same here, slowly unfolding amps up the tension! I think the only way to make raffle drawing even more fun would be to insert the raffle papers into cookies, Chinese fortune cookie style. Baking is fun so I think that's going to be my strategy with the next giveaway.
I would of course eat all cookies but the first one would decide who the winner is.

Btw, attics are the best (miss my Grandma's house, used to do expeditions into the depths of the attic there, finding all kinds of stuff. Better than a museum)

The cookie idea sounds very fun and quite unique. Plus it has the added benefit of all those lovely cookies to snack on afterwords. I agree with you about the attic expeditions, they were so fun as a child, all those wonderful and unique things you would find, like One-Eyed Willie's treasure map (a reference to the 1985 American movie, the Goonies).
