Question

I know I already posted for today but I have a question I've been dying to ask because it just puzzles me.

How do other Craft Blogs out there get companies to give them their products to do giveaways?

I mean do the companies literally track them down and contact them, or is there something I've not figured out yet?

I think about it almost every day and can't figure it out...

lots of crafty people do work for companies (which gets used in magazines or other advertising)and they often get to keep the 'left overs' or get paid in product. I know Kelly Dunlop has this happen for all her work in scrapbooking....not sure of other ways..

Yeah they are sponsored by the companies. They are sent the 'kits' or products from companies and required to work with them. It gives great exposure to the companies and encourages people to buy the products. You have to be a 'big wig' in the crafting world to get some sponsors and have a big following.

I want companies to randomly call me and ask me to use all their products for free. Sniffle.
