500th Post Giveaway

Uncategorized

Simply Spring: A DIY Wreath | On Sutton PlaceI have thought and thought about what to do for my 500th post giveaway. I knew I wanted it to be something handmade by me…I just didn’t know which direction to take. I considered giving away my DIY Spring Wreath but the honest truth is that I wasn’t sure I could part with it. A few days ago I went back to Hobby Lobby to see if they still had the garlands. They did and I bought them. Again. So that means I can made another wreath. I’ll have one to giveaway and one to keep. It was meant to be.

My giveaways are usually short and sweet but I’m going to run this one for a week. That way everyone will have a chance to enter. I’m using a Rafflecopter widget for your convenience and because it’s so easy to pick a winner. Just click the +1 arrow in the box that says “Invent Your Own Option” and enter your email address. That’s it.

I am so thankful for each and every one of you.

    I have been following your blog for a few months now and appreciate it all! From the decor ideas to the printables to your recipes! The oatmeal cookies are my husband’s favorites! “Those are the cookies I grew up on!” he exclaimed. Love each and every tip as well! Thank you so much for the effort it takes to blog!

    Congratulations! Love your blog and I really need a front door spring wreath. My door looks sad without a wreath, since I took down the Christmas one. Wishing you another 500, all your readers can’t wait! Toodles, Barbi

    Hi Ann! Congratulations on YOUR 500th giveaway!!! I pin a lot of your projects and believe it or not, they get repined more than any other pins. I think the easy, beautiful and fresh ideas are why.

    I haven’t been with you for very long but I enjoy your emails…keep them coming.

    Congratulations, Ann! And I must tell you I LOVE the Goldtouch pans you recommend. I love to bake and ordered them after reading your recommendation. They arrived yesterday, and I made my favorite bread yesterday afternoon. My husband has declared them winners. That’s not an easy endorsement to come by! I see a lot of bread making in my future.

    Wow, Ann! 500 posts! That is very exciting. And a chance to win one of your wreaths is the best idea ever! Wreaths are something that do not come easy to me for some reason. I noticed a fun wire wreath form the other day and had the idea to make a sort of rag wreath. I imagine there are tutorials all over for that! Anyway, thanks for the opportunity to win.

    I’ve certainly enjoyed and appreciated your blog – don’t know that I’ve read all 500 posts but I bet pretty close to it! :-)

    Have a good weekend, my friend. ~ Dori ~

    Congratulations Ann! That’s a lot of posts! You must have a lot to say….lol. Can’t wait to see what else you post about…it’s always good. BTW, I purchased the adobe photoshop lightroom and I purchased the 35mm lens you talked about in your photography post. I love them…I’m still figuring out lightroom though! Thanks!
