Little Changes + a Giveaway


Hello all!  How was your weekend?  Ours was rainy... booo!  Doesn't Mother Nature know it is May?
I have been making a few small changes around the casa lately.  I started selling these botanical prints (found by Mr. Hughes) in my booth a few months ago and they have been popular.  When I repainted the upstairs hall, I needed something to complement the new color (Rainwater by Martha Stewart, in case you would like to know.)
And since I like to change things up, (especially in wall decor,) and because I am not a lover of filling in and painting over holes.... I decided to put up a little botanical gallery wall with Japanese Washi Tape.
I adore the stuff!  And I can take this down anytime I like, with no holes!  
I just got the vintage sewing chair a few weeks ago and the Mr. found me a spouse for it this past weekend.  Almost identical. 
So that is my happy little hallway. 

And, while I have you here, talking to you about paper, let me throw a giveaway your way.


 Krista from Pendrops Couture hand makes these incredible little cards that are almost too pretty to send!


Krista handcrafts all these cards out of pure goodness....vintage textiles, organic cotton, antique books and sheet music, burlap, and old buttons...
All of her paper and envelopes are 100% recycled.  
Aren't they incredible?!?


You can win the above basket which includes 5 pendrops couture cards and it includes the adorable basket too!
Here is what you have to do to win:
One entry.... go to her site and tell me which the card you love the most... if you can pick just one!
Another entry...go to her facebook page and "like it"
You want another entry?  Well I like approval/ validation... so go to my site and "like it" as well.
And leave me a comment for each.  I will leave the giveaway open for a week and announce the winner next Tuesday.
I will be back soon to show you what the Mr. carted home the other day.  Our neighbors probably think we are nuts!!

bye for now!

    Hi! I really REALLY love the Arise collection! They are totally beautiful and I think I am going to order a bunch to send to friends and family. We are moving, away from everyone, and I think emails are terribly NOT personal. These cards would be wonderful for me as well as the one that receives it! And the basket...TOO CUTE!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!! I 'liked' Pendrops Couture as well as yours! Thank you and I hope I win... but GOOD LUCK & God Bless to everyone! Thank you!

    Love your botanical prints wall! We used Rainwater when we repainted our living/dining room in addition to two other shades in the same color family -- such a calming, welcoming color!
