today I turned 24, and yes I get a bit excited and do a bit of a birthday countdown just as I did as a child.
so to celebrate I thought I would do some gifting to you, my lovely blog readers. a give-away that is full of my favourite things...
winter + woollen blankets + doilies = a hot-water bottle cover (crafted by me)
vintage tea towels + cushions = a cushion cover
vintage florals + pretty bedding = 2 sunny yellow floral Sheridan pillow slips (op-shopped and still in their original packaging)
vintage florals + doilies + bunting = a 3m length of bunting
milk glass + jewellery + more bunting = a sweet little bunting inspired necklace, with pretty milky-glass
to be in the draw to win the hot-water bottle cover, cushion cover, pillow slips, bunting and necklace just leave a comment below (you don't have to be follower but i'd love it if you were). I shall draw the winner on the last day of this month.
i celebrated this morning at work with a delicious peach cheesecake and this evening am heading out for dinner with my love (actually the first time we've been out for tea since we moved here). so a wonderful day it has been.

ReplyDeleteThis giveaway is SO gorgeous! I'm afraid most of the goodies would go to waste on me however...no hot water bottles here or room for any more cushions...we're a little bit crazy about collecting cushions lol!
Best wishes to all that do enter!
