Tol2

Well my friends, in honor of the month of February, Valentine’s Day, and my appreciation for all of you, I decided to have a little "token of love" give-away.

What the winner will receive:

1. Wendy Addison Glass Glitter Letters "X" and "O" (for hugs and kisses of course).

2. A box of chocolates from Michael Cluizel (a chocolatier in Paris).

3. A box of note cards created by Romantic Homes. (Yes, they are upside down in the photo. Oops!)

4. An envelope of five French Playing cards from Sadie Olive.

5. A Wendy Addison "Token of Love" Valentine’s Day pail.

6. Jenni Bowlin Scallop Circle Chipboard frames. (2 small and 2 large).

7. Romantic Homes "Valentine’s Day Issue".

Here are a few more pictures:

Now, the rules:

Please leave a comment to be entered for the drawing. I will allow comments to be added until Friday February 8th. (One week from today). The winner will be announced on Saturday February 9th here on the blog.

Thank you for all your friendships! Good luck! :)

joyce - Hi Sara, this is my first comment on your blog…wanted to share that the up-side down box of cards in the photo caught my sense of whimsy…made me smile and got me to thinking about my continuing efforts with putting me in what I create.
Joy joys to you and Happy February Sara
Have they designed an up-side vase that won’t drip yet (of course you could weld a vase up-side down say over a bird fountain…but then the flowers would fall out)?

February 5, 2008 - 5:03 am

Jeanne - Sara, I just read the article about you in Romantic Homes magazine and loved it! Your style is amazing ~ I love how you blend dark woods with light colored pieces. I’m going to try a little of that in my own home. I have my grandmother’s baby grand piano and although I love the memories it evolkes, I have always had difficulty decorating around it due it’s large size and my smallish home. But after seeing your piano in the magazine article, I am looking at my piano with new appreciation! Thanks so much for all your inspiration!!!

I would love to be entered in your giveaway. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that I win!!!

Dreamer - Sara, I am so envious of your accomplishments. WOW! I adore all the great items you locate to make life beautiful. Today, Super Tuesday, I picked up a March issue of Romantic Homes in a great store in Historic Downtown Brunswick, Georgia. I admire you for going the extra mile to create something so beautiful and unique. Your website does not mention how the name Sadie Olive was chosen. I am sure the name was not a random choice but one with special meaning. It will be nice to win the drawing, but nevertheless, I will visit your site and blog often to see the amazing ideas you make into reality. xoxo your website!!

I’ve never entered a giveaway and I don’t leave comments often, but I am trying to learn all I can about thrifting, and decorating on a very low budget. I found your site thru robolady and another site. So I would love to enter, just for a chance to see what it’s like to participate in blogs. I may start one myself to show the transformation of my small apartment. It’s a total MESS right now, so I’m just getting started. Keep up the great work!!
