IT"S A GIVEAWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!A GIVE AWAY!!!!!

I celebrated my 58th birthday on Dec 23rd and I wanted to post a give away. Then I realized this is my 75th POST. So I decided to do TWO GIVEAWAYS!!

When I took a deep breath and started my blog last spring, I was very intimidated by all the beautiful blogs and owners out here in blog land. I had no idea how fast time would go and here I am with still so much more to share!

Here are a few little tidbits that you will find in your box of goodies: a green peackcock feather wreath, vintage lace, ribbon, pearls, floral corsage...........small victorian tussie,

vintage postcards with dates and letters written on the back, original ads from the early 1900's, copies of textbook pages from late 1800-1900, vintage wallpaper trim, and the list goes on. it will be great 'stuffs' for collage work, adding that final touch to a tussie or a hat or whatever you decide to make this next year.
It will include something that represents each of the holidays for the year!!

This nice sized round box held some mugs. I bought the empty box for a qarter at the thrift store. It measures 10 inches wide and is 4inches deep.

The FIRST GIVEAWAY has 75 items for the winner. and it will include gobs of variety.

The SECOND GIVEAWAY will be how ever many items like above I can fit in this container. It is too small for the 75 items but will hold quite a few and the same variety!

For everyone who posts my give away on their blog, they will be entered in both drawings. You can't win both... sorry. But that means TWO winners will have some fun!!

So leave a comment to enter the giveaway and tell me you linked my giveaway in your blog and you will be entered into the second drawing as well. You have until January 17th when I will draw both names. Each time you leave a comment your name will be entered.
