1 year blogiversary giveaway

{This giveaway is now closed}



It's been a fabulous year, wow how time flies. It has been almost one year since I started my blog. I am always so surprised at the sweet comments I get with each post. To show my appreciation I've collected a few of my favorite things as a giveback to one of my loyal readers.

1. Romantic Homes magazine, May 2011--I'm loving this issue and I'm sure you will too! It's filled with shabby and cottagey goodness.





2. Burlap french chair sillhouette pillow--combining my love of burlap and french chairs, this pillow was handmade by me using this simple (and cheap) method.



3. Cute Anthro clutch--I was happy to find this pear clutch at Anthropologie, and am loving this mustard color for summer.



5. Chalkboard tray--I had to throw in something thrifted here, to which I added chalkboard paint for a cute little message board. My favorite place to shop is the thrift store and I've been loving chalkboard paint for a while (I just finished this chalkboard door, and always have one or two thrifted chalkboard frames around the house).




6. Vintage Resin Ring--When I saw this ring I knew I had to add it to the giveaway. It is so pretty with a vintage flair, and adjustable band that will fit anyone.








To enter the giveaway, simply become a follower (if you aren't one already), and leave a comment answering the following question:



What would you like to see me primp?




This little blog has become a great passion of mine--I really love it, and especially love to hear your encouraging comments. Thanks so much to everyone for a great year.!

  7. Happy Blogiversary! I stumbled on your blog about a week ago and have been a faithful follower since. I would love to see you primp a console table or an arm chair (similar to the one you have in the piano room, for selfish reasons of course!) I absolutely adore that chair!

  12. Happy one year Blogaversary! What a great and generous giveaway you're Hosting to celebrate it. I'm not quite at my year mark yet, but I must say that I too have become quite passionate about Blogging in this short time that I've been participating and connecting with this wonderful Community!

    What would I like to see Primped... any everyday household item that is used a lot and yet lacks visual appeal in it's original condition or container. I'm always attempting to jazz up items we use a lot and aren't always hidden away in a cupboard or drawer... if its out where it can be seen, I'd like it to blend well with the decor. Recently I've started looking for items with more aesthetic packaging... is that OCD or what?!?!?! *winks*

  25. Michele ~ I am a follower, can't recall for how long. I have made and have similar interests to you like the chalk boards, book page wreath and paper pumpkin...I think the first post I read was the one where you made the all you need is love sign and you linked to a party? Can't think what I would like to see you primp ~ that's part of the fun of coming to see what you've come up with! Congrats on a year!
