Now that I've been blogging over a year, I am overdue with a giveaway to thank my readers for spending their valuable bits of time visiting my little blog. I started blogging without any real connections, no friends that blogged, and no clue about what I was doing. I just knew I wanted to start a blog, because I had been bursting with enthusiasm for antiques and crafty/vintage projects. Blogging has been the perfect outlet for me, and I have met some wonderful like-minded people and have established some new friendships that I truly value.
Just to clarify, I want to thank each and every one of you for visiting my blog, and an extra thank-you to those of you that have left comments. I try to reciprocate, and will continue to do so, by visiting your blogs and leaving comments too. Supporting each other is what it's all about!
Part One of my giveaway is a copy of my favorite new magazine, Flea Market Style. The reason I show two copies below is because I want you to know that I'm not giving out a used magazine, I bought a fresh new copy to include in my giveaway!
The other goodies in the giveaway include a 12" feedsack fabric yoyo square, a smaller yoyo square, one of my handmade flower brooches, several empty vintage seed packets, some buttons on cards, an assortment of cabinet cards, and a cute little Goebel chick. Oh, and the goodies will be packed inside a beautiful Victorian Eastlake spoon-carved oak sewing cabinet drawer, perhaps to use as an attractive organizer for some of your craft supplies.
The last part of my giveaway package is one of my handmade glass pendant necklaces with vintage spring green and pink wallpaper as the design. It's strung on a coordinating pink cord.
All you have to do to enter the contest is leave a comment on this post by Friday, April 23 at 7 p.m. e.s.t. Your comment should include one or more things you are going to be looking for this spring at flea markets, garage sales, estate sales, or antique shops. I thought it might be fun to share part of our "hot lists" and compare notes with other folks from around the globe. Just to get things started, my hot list includes apothecary bottles, flower frogs, and hat boxes.
Remember, you only have to mention one item, and make sure you leave a link so I can get in touch with you if you are the winner! And one more thing.....I don't have a huge readership (yet!) so you will probably have a pretty good chance of winning!
Good Luck,
Mitzi
