I can hardly believe it's already been TWO years now that I've been blogging!!! But it has....this Wednesday, February 11th! Plus I've just hit my 800th post about ten posts ago, so it's kind of a DOUBLE celebration!!!
These last two years have been so amazing and wonderful to me. I've been afforded opportunities that I would have never had if I hadn't had this blog. I've met so many wonderful people and precious friends because of the blog. My artwork has been published several times now, just because I had a blog and the editor found my work!! So many blessings have come from me having my blog ~
This community of people, women and men, from all over the world....coming together to read one another's blogs, to peek at their artwork or homes, to cheer one another on, to pray for each other, to lift one another up, to give and gain daily inspiration.....there is just nothing else like it!
So to thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to stop and read what I have to say, or to see what I've been up to, I'm having a GIVEAWAY!!!!
I am working on a piece of artwork right now to offer up to the first name drawn!!! Then, Kathi of Vintage Inspired Jewelry has GRACIOUSLY donated TWO pair of her beautiful handmade earrings for me to give away as well as a sweet set of her magnets!
Sooooo, I'll be drawing four names to give my artwork and Kathi's gifts to!!
Please just leave a comment on THIS POST to win. Also please make sure that you leave your email address if you do not have a blog so I can contact you!!!!
I will end the giveaway Saturday, Feb. 14th at 6:00 pm EST and will announce the winners Sunday!!!
Here is my giveaway gift to you....an altered book box nest assemblage ~
Please visit Kathi's blog HERE and her Etsy store HERE ~ I just LOVE her jewelry!!! She has generously given me two pair of earrings and a set of small magnets that she's made to give away as well......here they are :)
A sweet idea for Valentine's Day....my niece Allison had a bridal shower Sunday and her sister Adrian (my other niece!) made these wonderful heart shaped ice cubes for the punch!!! She used candy molds I think.....and dropped berries in them too!
Wishing you a wonderful, happy Monday!!!
xxoo, Dawn

Congratulations on your 800th post! Thank you, Dawn, for your generosity in sharing your creativity! I only recently discovered the vast, magical land of blogdom, and yours is my favorite spot to while away time catching up on your past posts.
My business is selling wonderful antique & vintage images, and I have a passion for all sorts of bits & pieces from the past ~ millinery flowers, laces, papers, ribbon, antique hardware... You've inspired me to begin organizing my long-neglected artspace and start playing again. THANK YOU for blessing us with your talent & inspiring us to create!
