While strolling around Home Depot recently, one of my favorite stores remember ;) I was thinking about how grateful I am to have met so many wonderful friends through blogging.
Learned so many neat things.
Read so many uplifting stories.
Sometimes I like to think...bloggin' is my favorite. :)
So in honor of favorite things-- I'm going to giveaway a few favzies.
Number one favorite thing right now, Kitchen+Bath Makeovers Magazine.
Yeah, still on cloud nine. I want to give one lucky reader their own copy! Woohoo!
And, because I super duper love you all.. The sweet friends who support this lil' ol' blog I'm going to throw in a 25.00 Home Depot gift card to the winner so you can work on a little something in your home!
Wait wait one more! The winner will also receive a jute covered monogram & a burlap flower pin (in whatever fabric is my favorite that day ;)..) from my Etsy Shop!
A giveaway full of Rachelle's Favorites--to my favorites!
Want to know how to win?
1. Leave a comment telling me your favorite thing about blogging!

Okay that was more than one reason, but I couldn't help it. :-)

Then you can happily go to bed with a beautiful picture in your mind and decorate away!

Hi, Rachelle! What a fabulous giveaway!

Favorite thing? It's hard to say. I've met some great people but let's be honest here, I guess I must admit deep down I must like talking about myself, my family, my projects. I can do it shamelessly. Sad but true. The fun part is I get to read everyone else's shameless bloggings about their lives too.
Great give away. Great blog.
Thanks,
Pam

Blogging... where do I start?
The people.
The sweet, kind, encouraging, generous people who I have either met in real life, or wish that I could. Then I wish I could fill a plane with all of my faves, fly off to someplace beautiful and rainy. (Because, it's my plane, I get to pick where it goes... hello!!!) To cook and craft and chat and laugh.
A girl can dream, right?
By the way, I'm a follower.
