“Giveaway”

[@OnlineJewelryAcademy]

Hi Desiree Ferro, I am happy to let you know that your name was drawn in our Online Jewelry Academy Giveaway and that you have potentially won a copy of the “Basic Wax Modeling” book. To be declared the winner, within 72 hours (from the time stamp on the message) you must reply to the OJA with a valid name and United States mailing address. The best way to do that is to simply reply to this comment. If you don’t want your personal information to show up in a public comment, you can include a curse word (somewhere in the comment) and it will direct your response to a non-public (to be reviewed) section where only I can see it. I will not take any offense. If we receive the proper information by March 18th, at 2pm (California time), we will announce you as the winner and send out the book. We also recommend that you read the rules below that were also posted in the description of the video. Congratulations, Professor John Ahr
