Painting, Tinkering and a Giveaway

I've been painting and tinkering with these pieces....

To make a new booth for the Sugar Plum Show....

I just love chippy old paint.....

and pink of course!

As I've been preparing for the show (I set up tomorrow) I was feeling so excited that Spring is coming! Every year I am treated to little finches that nest in the rafters outside my kitchen window and they are back and working so hard on their nest.

So in celebration of Spring I think it is give away time! I will be giving away the Bird with ribbon  pillow from my "In the Garden" collection and a few surprise treats too. Please leave a comment on this post only. Followers get a second entry and if you mention me in your post or link to me, you get a 3rd entry. The entries will conclude on Sunday, March 18th at 6:00 p.m. standard time.  I will post the winner monday morning. Shipping to the U.S. only.

You can see my entire collection HERE.

Good Luck ! 

p.s. Oops, that should say Sunday March 14th at 6:00p.m. the drawing will be closed. Sorry for the confusion. The winner will be postd in the morning.

Painting day

Today was officially designated as painting day! I thought you might like to see a few of the things that have been hanging around the garage waiting for its' turn at  a new life!

"Imagine"! One of my favorite pass times and judging from all of your creative blogs I think its one of yours too! This was blue, in fact it was a gorgeous blue but it didn't get any takers so we'll try what seems to be more trendy.

I really like this magazine rack. I'm pretty sure its old and as long as its older than me, I think its old. The picture doesn't do it justice. I also love buckets....don't know why.

Another bucket or actually a pot. This would be perfect for a witch's brew! And a cute wire basket, another flea market item I can never pass on.

Check out this old window! My husband turned it into something fabulous for me. I am in the middle of painting it and I will show its big reveal soon. I painted a few other things that I will post asap. I forgot to finish taking pictures. I heard thats a symptom of  middle age I hope it doesnt stay long!
