*CLOSED*Woodworking & DIY Show Tickets Giveaway

After the popularity of my last giveaway for tickets to the Capital Home & Garden Show, I’m happy to offer another ticket giveaway to a local event for DIY-ers!

*THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. Winners have been announced here.*
Move over Bob Villa! Next weekend, March 11th-13th, 2011 the Woodworking & DIY Show will be coming to the Dulles Expo Center (North Hall) in Chantilly, VA.

If you are a woodworking enthusiast or know someone who is (I’m thinking husbands, dads, uncles & grandfathers) or perhaps have a husband with a growing “honey-do” list around your house – this show is right up your alley!

There will be nationally-known woodworking gurus such as Jim Heavey & Peter Gedrys at the show as well as local woodworking guilds to share helpful tips and trade secrets. Plus hobbyists will get the chance to get hands-on and try out the newest tools from national manufacturers and shop at Show-only discounted prices. You will get to see the masters share the artistry of woodworking during interactive demonstrations and show attendees will get hands-on and learn to turn with craft supplies such as pen turning (which supposedly is popular for both kids & adults to try out and make their own pens at the show!)

Kids under 15, as well as active duty police, fire and military (must show ID) have free admission. Regular adult admission is $10.00. But, I’m happy to have the opportunity to giveaway 2 free tickets to 3 lucky winners! You have up to four ways to enter:

1. Simply leave a comment on this blog post by Monday 3/7/11 11:59 pm ET letting me know you want free tickets to the Woodworking & DIY Show.
2. Extra entry given if you share a DIY project you want to tackle (please leave this as a separate comment from the first entry).
3. Extra entry given if you subscribe to my blog (please leave a comment letting me know you subscribe via RSS or email).
