WHAT GOES BUMP IN THE NIGHT - - - BEAM N READ GIVEAWAY!

So the other night I was laying in bed and I thought I heard something!

My heart stops…..

I wait to breathe in case I hear something else.

I get brave and force my eyes open and this is what I saw.  Please tell me you can see it!

I yell out…Who goes there!!!  Stop or I will shoot!!!




So I grab my gun, grab my Beam N Read (hoping I would blind whoever was there)…..

and what do I see????

Oh what a relief!!!

  Shewee….can’t figure out how Connie Monkey got on top of the lamp shade…but lucky for my Beam N Read….because I could have blown off Connie’s head or
put a hole in my husband’s suit.

In all seriousness….I love my Beam N Read.  I take it with me when I leave town.  I also like to have it beside my bed because I am so lazy at night, I don’t want to get up and turn the light off or reach over and turn off the lamp.  All I have to do is turn my Beam N Read off and lay it to the side.  Yep…..height of laziness!!!

If you want to know all about the Beam N Read go here!

If you do not want to wait to find out if you win you can always buy one at I Have A Notion!

Now for the giveaway!

It would be wonderful if you were a follower or if you went  and Like Beam N Read on facebook....


but I am only going to ask for a comment telling me who you would give the Beam N REad to and why.

That is it, thanks for coming by.

Thanks Bob from Beam N REad for this opportunity!

My side bar has all of the blogs that are giving away a Beam N Read...be sure to go by....

Yesterday I was able to put the binding on one of these runners while my little sewing friend was here.

Last night I wanted to finish the other runner but I was given the pockets to put on those 18 aprons. A friend had them monogramed. I had just a little bit of fabric left...when I say a little...there not even enough scraps left over to put in the scrap bin (whohoooooo no scrap breeding tonight).

So, I took the remaining scraps and did this to the pockets.

I got five done and prepped the rest to be put on. I thought...oh...it will only take me a few hours.....WRONG!!!!!! So this is what I will be doing today before my little friend comes over.

Don't forget the Ghastlie Blog Hop......look to the side bar and my Beam N Read light giveaway!!!!

BEAM N READ BLOG HOP....IF THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR, YOU HAVE COME TO THER RIGHT PLACE!!!

So.....I am going on a trip and I was given one of these "Beam N Read" lights to review and try out...... now I can't find it..... I am sure you have been to the other bloggers that have posted about this light and how they use it but....here is how I use mine....that is....when I can find it.

So here is a picture of what it looks like....

This is what it looks like when it is off... It has a red lens for night vision when you are switching from lighted to dark conditions.

Where is this light?

I used it to thread this needle.....boy did it make a difference. I also have the magnifying lens that fits right on it for extra help......(now some do not come with this magnifying lens so you need to be sure you know which one you want and which one you are getting).

The light in my pfaff does not work sometimes so I just put this Beam N Read around my neck (it has an adjustable strap so you can have the light where you need it most) and problem is solved. You hardly know you are wearing it, that is how light it is.


Let me see......I was reading in bed the other day......maybe it is upstairs? Hummmm where can this light be?



Can you believe that people actually make houses with no lights in the bedrooms....so I was using my Beam N Read light to see my stash. Yes, I know, it does look like a tornado blew threw.....what can I say???


I just hang that Beam N Read light around my neck and my hands are free to compare fabrics......hummmm maybe it is lost in the fabrics? Now, wouldn't you want to be a Beam N Read light now....to be lost in fabrics....oh...the smell.....the feel..... This truly is a quilters delight if it loves fabric.



So my son used it to work on his computer....I wonder if he hid it from me?


This is not a joke David.....Where is that light!!!!


I guess I need to stand in line to use it...buy why? It is my light!!!



I know I used it to give me more light in marking the center of this stitchery.....

I must have the light for my trip......it will be great to read in the car, change CD's......and if I can't sleep in the hotel I can do some stitchery and not bother anyone or walk to the bathroom without tripping over people's luggage or shoes....(now that will be a first).



Can you guess where my light was?


Give you one guess, be creative and tell me where you think I found it. As you know, I am giving away one of these lights to one of you out there. So won't you help me find it? No wrong answer...no worries about shipping.


Susan over at Hanging on by Needle and Thread is also reviewing and giving away a Beam N Read light today...so go over and see if she knows where hers is....maybe she will loan it out to me?


If you just can't wait to see if you have won one, you can always go over to Kelly's, I have a Notion and purchase one or get more info. I know there are different versions and prices, so go take a look see.


Thanks Kelly for this fun blog hop and all of you hoppers out there. A special thanks to Bob, marketing manager of Beam N Read.


Friday Patsy Thompson and Kelly at I Have a Notion are giving their thoughts on this awesome light.

I just had to add that this light truly is a delight to travel with. It doesn't take up much space, is light to have around your neck, you can adjust it to where you need the light to be and it doesn't bother anyone else in the process. I made this post before traveling in case I didn't get back in time...but I used this light on my trip and I do believe it will be my traveling companion for now on. Thinking of getting my mother one and my older friend who has trouble seeing (she will love the magnifying glass and the extra light).


I will chose a winner Saturday.




Oh...it was also great because I wanted to buy fabric in the hotel, husband was asleep, really wanted the fabric...so got my little Beam N Read out....oh yes....this Beam N Read really does like fabric, it is enabler.
