GRATEFUL GIVEAWAY.

They are so many things that I am grateful for this year.  I won't list them all but one of the most important things is all of the friends/fans that I have gotten support from on Facebook.

At the end of  January I reached my 1000 fans and Im already over 1100 now.    So to thank you all for your support I am so thrilled to do this giveaway for you all!

It is something that I am proud to use and something I want you all to have a chance to try as well.

YES... CeCe Caldwell Paints!!!  CeCe has been so gracious to give some a generous basket to me so I can pass it on to all of you creative divas.

Now I know you have seen the lucky ladies who have their hands on the paint already splash beautiful photos all over blogland and facebook.     But to me this paint is more than just beautiful....it is ECO-FRIENDLY!

Now as most of you know that is the concept of my new shop and I am hoping to get this paint in my shop as soon as the doors open for business.

 But it is important for you know about the products you are using in your home or projects that you are putting out for resale.

Here is a description right from the website:


CeCe Caldwell’s Paints began with the dream to find a earth and people friendly paint for furniture and home decor.  The dream to have products that could safely be used by anyone: Professional artisans; DIYers; healthy individuals; parents; people with respiratory or other illnesses and those concerned about leaving the world a better place.


We offer you products that are safer and better for the environment.  Our mineral paint have no Volatile Organic Compounds, are non-toxic and have no odor. The paint contains NO acrylic co-polymers, solvents, formaldehyde, ammonia, ethylene glycol or toxic heavy metals.  The minerals are clay, porcelain clay and chalk blended into a water based solution.  The paint is packaged in recycled plastic containers.  Our wax is made from insect and plant sources.  It also has very low odor and is packaged in recycled plastic containers.

This makes me so happy and it is just a wonderful GREEN concept and I hope to share it with my decor clients and now my shop clients as well.

HOLIDAY GIFT EXCHANGE......I GOT ME A COOL CHICK

So the crafty Linda from Craftaholics Anonymous was hosting a fabulous Holiday Exchange this year.   So I wanted to sign up because I love meeting new people and learning where they are from and what they love to create.   I'm a huge fan of her and all the amazing projects and ideas shared at CA.

 

We were all randomly matched up and my partner's name is Alexis.   Alexis was a cool chick from the get go, she emailed me Howdy Partner!   Our 1st -2nd email we knew of each other's likes and our home decor and were excited to see what we would come up with for each other.

Now Alexis lives out in Utah (funny I have met a few people from Utah since bloggin......who knew).  She mentioned how she couldn't till the Springtime so she could paint her front door Yellow!   I thought......that's it, I will make her something for her fabulous new Yellow Door.    So this is what I made my cool partner:

The perfect Springtime wreath...with touches of Yellow,Teal, Coral

I hope it will look great on her Yellow Door and Welcome all her family and friends.

Now I didn't want her to think I was a Scrooge and not acknowledge that this was a Holiday Exchange, so I decided to send her one of my Old World Style Burlap Stockings too.

Personalized for her family

Also a set of jute napkin rings for her table

So this is what I packed up and sent off to Utah a few days ago

******************************************************

Now here is what my fabulous partner Alexis sent to me:

How awesomely crafty is she....

Each side of the blocks have different patterns

All of the patterns are gorgeous and match my kitchen perfectly!

Only 17 more days to Christmas!!!!!!

Thanks to Alexis I have the coolest craftiest reminder of how much time left till Santa arrives (and the 5 kiddos in the house can take turns changing the blocks everyday!

Big thank you to Linda for hosting such a great event, so happy I signed up!

Huge thank you to Alexis for the wonderful gift she sent me, I will treasure it for years to come and here is to a new long distance friendship!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!

I am so glad you did this because her hair was driving me nut and she was not enjoying getting her hair done anymore because of all the knots when she wake up in the morning.

Thanks MJ...Can not wait to try this on Charlie :)

Congrats......to Suze she has a beautiful little Mixed Chick & Dude herself and I know she will be thrilled with the results of this product!
