And the winner is...

ME!!
Yes, that's right.

Two days in a row I was a winner of a couple of giveaways from two different blogging sisters!
First off, sweet Mindy who writes at A Dandelion Diary
had a whole week of fun giveaway items and I won one of them...


...a mini notebook, some colorful calendar clips and fun gel pens.
I always loved getting my new school supplies when I was a kid so I was excited :)
~
Next, I received an email from Michele over at The Nest at Finch Rest blog.
She was giving away a lovely teacup and creamer set and I threw my hat in the ring.
Funny thing is, I almost forgot I had done so with all that I had going on.
I was thrilled when I received her email telling me I was the winner!




It really is a beautiful set, don't you think?
And I realized when I put it in my cabinet that I had something that matched it...
...well, almost.


Years and years ago, my MIL gave me this vintage china toothpick holder.
If you removed the little violet flowers, it's a perfect match!

Thank you both, Mindy and Michele!!

So anyway, I'm off to the beach in a couple of days.
Did I tell you how excited I am?
You can bet you'll hear (and see) all about it a little later:)
Tootles!

  12. That is so awesome, Debby! That is a beautiful set, and the toothpick holder looks perfect with the other pieces. I always loved getting my school supplies, too; and then I found I was way more excited about getting my kiddos' school supplies! Oh, those giant boxes of crayons were drool-worthy!

    Hugs,
    Carol

  18. Congratulations! I always get myself a few little school supplies this time of year. So inspiring to have some sharp pencils and a brand new notebook! And love your china from Michele!
    Have fun at the beach Debby! Looks like you've earned some down time after all the work around the house you've done. I just scrolled down and saw the painting and wallpapering. The fireplace brick looks so refreshed. Great job. xo Deborah
