Giving Back Give Away

I won!!! I actually won something! I've never won anything
in my life! (Actually, I did win some free tickets to see A Capella once...) I'm so excited! Connie at Magnolia Street Style did a Giving Back Give Away.

I was excited to get my package today. I opened it very slowly so I could enjoy the surprise. First off, there was a beautiful card with bird art on the front and a sweet note from Connie on the back.


Then, I opened a little brown box and inside were 3 little net bags of old vintage buttons! How cool is that?

Then I unwrapped carefully a beautiful crystal relish tray. It's very pretty and Connie had a photo on her blog with the buttons in the tray. I could do that, or I could just leave the buttons in their little wraps and snuggle them into the tray.




I like to set a pretty table on occasion, too, so I can use it for that. It's a good size to use for all kinds of things! What a sweetheart - Connie started this Giving Back Give Away, so, when I decide what to Give Back to someone else, I'm going to pay it forward. I'll be on the lookout this weekend at the sales I go to for some goodies that I hope my winner will love!

Thanks so much Connie - go visit her site. She has such a good eye for decorating and finding just the right things to "cozy up" her home for each season. Tune back in to find out what I'm going to give away!
