Love Is…..A Giveaway!!
To give a little LOVE back to you all, we thought it was high time for some giveaways! Anyone up for that?
First up, we’d love to giveaway this faux-vintage decoupaged metal set, of a watering can, and a little container.
It could be a lovely touch, for your home decor.
It’s not much, but the set is rather sweet! Shabby-chic-ish!
One detail I really love, is the message on the side of the container:
(Family) Where the seeds of character are planted.(Home)
Isn’t that the truth.
The container can be used for an indoor plant, a starter plant, a pen and pencil cup, or any little junk!
The watering can would look sweet in a little girl’s room.
It’s not perfectly made. It’s on the rustic side.
It’s imperfections are, to me, what gives our little treasures character.
You can try to win this Giveaway for yourself, for your daughter, for a friend, or as a gift you may re-give come Christmas. (We’ll never tell a soul. ; )
Since we are always trying to get to know our blog visitors a little better, we thought it would be fun to share a little, in the comments. Since the theme as of late, is LOVE, here’s how you can qualify to WIN this faux-vintage set, delivered right to your door for NADA!:
Please share at least 10 things that you really love. Things that share with us and the readers, a little bit about what makes you, YOU. Not “Oh, I love my kids…..”etc.,…..after all, if you don’t love your kids……..well, we just sure hope you do.
The Giveaway will end Monday night, the 22nd of February. We’ll announce the winner sometime on Tuesday, via the Random dot org number puller.
So…..we’ll go first!
(Just so you know, my kids helped me compile my list, and you can do the same. Sometimes others can do a better job pointing out these things, than we can of ourselves. After all, if they shout it out at you like it’s a good one, it’s probably a consistently obvious thing they can tell tickles your fancy.) So, here we go….in no particular order! :

So glad to hear it, Wendy!! I love that your little girl was so excited! That really makes us smile, ear to ear. HaPpY SpRiNg to you all!!
The watering can arrived on Saturday. My 4 year old made all kinds of “Joyful Noises.” She just couldn’t believe that a package arrived for her. She impatiently waited for an added layer of modge podge to dry so that she can use it in the garden if the snow ever melts. We’ll have to use it in the studio until then. Thanks so much.
