Give Away!

I've decided to have a little celebration give away because La Bella Vie has made it to 100 followers...OK so 110 but who's counting? Therefore I thought it was time to do something nice to thank everyone!

 
Typically I think there are rules to these things but let's make it simple...
 you must already be a follower or become a new follower and leave a comment then tell me which give away you would be interested in.
Its that simple!


There's "Give away #1" and "Give away #2" for you to choose from.

Drawing will be on Sunday September 12Th 2010

and will be chosen with "Random Generator" so its fair (we don't need Follower fighting on my first give away, what a mess that could be:)

The two winners will be posted on September 12th.

I'll contact the winners through their blogspot/email then the goods will be sent to their new homes:)

So here we go...

Give away #1
First up; a cute little pair of blue and green candles in ceramic pots with lids (about 3-4"). They are the perfect size for a mantle, or a table scape or maybe on a bedside nightstand. They have delightful Lilly scent but not overpowering at all.






Give away #2
Second up, an adorable "American Vintage Calico" cat. This little cutie is made from a vintage 1930's quilt block. The fabrics used are from old feed sacks which was a very common way of making quilts, shirts, dresses and just about anything else necessary to live comfortably.
The motto of the day was "make do with what you have or do without".
This darling collectible kitty is a limited edition piece (15/45) made by renowned textile artist, Maggie Sue.





Good luck to all of you and remember,
"DFJE" don't fret, just enjoy", its only Blog land!

  1. Wow! I stumbled onto your blog while surfing the blogsophere, and find you're doing a giveaway. What luck! I'd be good with either giveaway prize, but if I had to choose... I'll say the candle holders.

  8. Terry, Congrats on passing the 100 follower ( hmm who set this # as bench mark? must be a rule somewhere..lol).. What a generous give away - with not 1 but 2 most adorable items. If I happen to one of the very lucky winners selected - the American Vintage Calico would be my choice ~ to own something with such history and to have been loveingly made with caring hands , it would be a treasure most definitely.

  14. Congrats on the number of followers you have! I am excited to be one. When I visit you I am taken far, far away from the flat treeless plains of West Texas.

  18. Dear Terry,

    This is my first visit to your blog - I discovered you thru my first visit to Colorado Lady today - and you were the first link I clicked on - so how cool is it that the very first post I see of yours is for your first giveaway?

    I signed up to follow you (liked your blog, giveaway or not!) and would love a chance to win the calico cat!

    Thanks so much! Hope you'll stop by and join me over at Create With Joy when you have a moment!

    Hugs
