100th Post and Giveaway

This giveaway is now closed - winner to be posted soon! Thank you!


I can't believe I've written 100 posts! I'm still fairly new to blogging so I have been nervous about the giveaway. I hope you like what I chose! This giveaway represents a few of my favorite things...

1. I love iron. Instead of pictures my walls are filled with mostly iron work. I use it for serving pieces for accent pieces, etc. The iron and glass votive represent this obsession!
2. Gail Pittman, can we be friends? If you haven't heard of Gail Pittman, she is a Mississippi artist and she is famous for her hand-painted pottery. I have pieces from her original studio as well as from SLAH. The generous sized bowl is from her SLAH retired Brio collection!
3. Sharpies are my friends! Check out this post to see my main use of them and my obsession with organization.
4. Mocha chocolates - need I say more?
5. Vanilla scented hand lotion! This represents two loves - I can't live without lotion and vanilla will always be a favorite scent for me!
6. I love to entertain which reminds me I need to do it more often! I also love cookbooks - I can read them like novels! So I'm including a few. Let's start with Appetizers!
7. Our lives are so full and blessed and sometimes we just need an Easy Weeknight Favorite recipe, (or two)!
8. You know how I like quick, easy, and lots of WOW. How about serving up a Cake Mix Miracle?
9. All you wonderful readers take the cake, so I'll throw in a cake mix to represent my how much I appreciate you!
10. And finally, All You is my new favorite magazine! It is written for real women. I enjoy the fun and cost effective ideas for food, home decor, and fashion. Remember these cookies? I also enjoy the coupons. My favorite thing of all in each issue is the Picture Puzzle! I'm including a 2 year (24 issue) subscription to this magazine!

Well that's it! I hope you like it! Of course these aren't all of my favorite things but a good sampling nonetheless. You can enter the giveaway three different ways...

1. Give a little (or a lot) of LOVE! Leave me a comment!
2. Share the LOVE! Write a post about this giveaway or if you don't have a blog then email your friends with my link! Be sure to leave a SEPARATE comment letting me know you shared the love.
3. Get some LOVE! You can subscribe using the gadget to the right. Be sure to leave a SEPARATE comment letting me know you are a subscriber.

I will hold this giveaway open until Monday, Feb 2 at 10 pm central time.

I'm excited! I can't wait to see who wins! Good luck!

To answer your question no I didn't paint any of my signs. The heart one was a gift and the others came from my favorite store Hobby Lobby.♥
