It's time for a GIVEAWAY!

Hello, friends!  I can't thank you enough for your support, your follows and your sweet comments.  It has been a joy watching this blog grow so quickly and getting to know each and every one of you. As you know, I read every comment and respond as often as I can. I love visiting your blogs and participating in your linky parties. I have found friendship and inspiration every where I turn in blog land.  I can't get enough!  So, to show my appreciation, I wanted to create a very special giveaway.

I do believe my most popular post so far was this post where I transformed vintage finds into home decor pieces.  Your favorite was this vintage milk crate -

 I decided not long after this post that my holiday giveaway would be another transformed vintage milk crate. I went hunting and found a vintage metal crate with wooden handle. It doesn't just have six compartments, it has eight.

I found mason jars to fit and filled each with whole coffee beans.  Many of you commented that you liked my use of coffee bean fillers in my decorating.  It smells delicious too when paired with these vanilla scented candles in glass votives.  I managed to squeeze those inside for you.

The crate is rusty and feels very industrial.  I decided to go with some rustic holiday picks.  You'll find red berries, pine cones, small bird's nests, pears and apples in this arrangement.

It's quite large too which means it could be a table centerpiece.  Or how about using it to light the front porch on the night of your Christmas party?  It would look great indoors or out.

I almost forgot...the handle has been embellished with some crinkled seam binding and a skeleton key just like my fall piece.  This is a unique vintage find that has been transformed just for you.  So, how do you win?  Let's make it simple. You have two chances to enter -

1) Leave me a comment telling me you're an existing follower or a new one. Include your email if you don't have a blog please so I can get in touch if you win!

2) Leave me a second new comment telling me you have posted a link to this giveaway on your blog or that you grabbed my button and posted on your blog (see right side bar).

I'll accept entries through Sunday, December 5th, 2010 at 5:00 p.m., I will post the winner that night.  A random number generator will be used to select the winning comment.  Thank you so much for participating!  I appreciate each of you so much! Good luck!  Linking this post to:
