For You! (a giveaway)

Photobucket
Better late than never, I am so excited to share our little giveaway! We wanted to thank you all for your sweet thoughts, comments and emails since the beginning of December (when I had my appendix removed) until today (as we mop up water and lament all the hardwork our floors will need). I am hoping that our string of misadventures is at an end and we can finally get back to painting, hammering and planning our next move (let's hope it is the closet getting done!).
But amidst all this you have been patient, caring and helpful and this is the best way we can think of thanking you: sharing a collection of some of our favorite decor items.
The first item is our candle of the month. Not the 70% used one I have been burning all month just in case you were wondering, but a fresh, new Makassar Ebony & Peach candle by Voluspa.

The second item in the package is a framed book plate from 1857 depicting kelp and coral.

You may remember the other 15 plates hanging in our dining room until my giant mirror took their spot, but they will be making a comeback in the office!

The next item is geared toward all my fellow crafters! It is a 1940's book of French sheet music that has a few adorable illustrations like this one. I am a huge fan of paper wreaths and while I haven't had a chance to start on my own, hopefully someone can do this music proud! (we also have an alternative use for it in an upcoming post that is a little unique if you have enough wreaths already).
Photobucket
As you know, we love both plants and candles and one of our favorite ways to display either is in beautiful old soup tureens!

So of course we included a beautiful vintage tureen! But you have to promise to tell us how you use it.
Photobucket
And last but not least we have a 16x16 inch pillow cover from Sa-Sea boutique, identical to the one floating around our house (and currently residing on our bed). It is a whimsical touch that makes me smile everytime I look at it, and I hope you smile a little too when you find a spot for it.
Photobucket
So to sum it up, 1 lucky reader will win:
1 voluspa 3 wick candle tin
1 antique framed book plate
1 vintage soup tureen
1 book of 1940's French sheet music
1 16x16 inch crowned bee pillow cover
And all you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling us what your favorite item of the group is!
*** for an additional entry become a follower of our blog and leave an additional comment. If you are already a follower please leave another comment as well!***
Good luck!
EDITED TO ADD: The closing date will be Friday, January 28th at 8pm pacific.

The tureen is so pretty! It would look awesome in my dining room. I tried to find the right container for my paper whites...I ended up with a burgundy one. Then, I realized how terrible paper whites smell! Yuck! I've been a faithful follower for quite some time now. Just a silent follower...until now!

Nancy said...

I just discovered your blog and I love your DIY section. Im obsessed with voluspa and capri blue candles- any ideas on how to reuse these?- I'm a minimalist and they are gorgeous and I love having one or two around the room- but multiple takes away from the minimalism. Any ideas on how to reuse them?

Love your blog! I'm a new blogger and just started a great design blog called www.NorthwestHospitality.org. I am going to add you on my list of favorite blogs that I will post soon. Stop by! My husband is a custom home builder and I do design/decorating for many of the homes. I'll soon feature a huge gallery of home pics. I just posted our beautiful "Nantucket" style home hee in Oregon. Keep up the good work! xox Sarah
