Look What I Won!

Check out these lovely pearl earrings that I won earlier this month from Blair's Wild and Precious blog. These beauties were created by BonnyBeeDesigns. I don't normally enter too many blog contests, but I fell in love with these earrings. I was so excited to win!

I am using Bonnie's photo as hers is so much better than mine!

Check out her etsy shop to see more of her creations.

Crafty Fun Finds

As you probably realize from my avatar, I love fleur de lis. I have quite a few fleur de lis in my collection, but I sure didn't have any FDL ribbon. Imagine my surprise when I found this ribbon at Hobby Lobby recently. It was all I could do not to jump up and down in the store! And they were 50% off that day!


Yesterday I went to Michael's and found these adorable stamps. I am on a cute bird kick lately. I really couldn't justify the purchase, but I was able to use two coupons as these weren't on sale. And I like cute birds. So there.

I thought these cute pink flowers would be good for Valentines or spring themed cards. Love the polka dots. And they might look cute with the bird stamps too.


I am planning my first giveaway on this blog and maybe it will have a Valentine's day theme! Stay tuned!

Final Days on PurrPrints Giveaway

I love kitties and I especially love Becca's etsy shop Purrprints.

A Prize from Glory Be Herbals

I was randomly chosen as the winner of the June giveaway from Jackie Alberti at Glory Be Herbals. Jackie is a member of our Kentucky Bluegrass etsy team. I won a great smelling roll on scented oil that helps with relaxation and sleep! I love the smell of sage and lavender!

Here is Jackie's description:

This is not a perfume oil (but it does smell good) but a therapeutic oil to help you relax and fall asleep. It is in a base of fractionated coconut oil with essential oils of Lavender, Roman Chamomile, Sweet Marjoram, Petitgrain, and Clary Sage. Just apply some at pulse points, especially near the heart before you go to bed. The smell alone is relaxing but when the essential oils are absorbed through your skin and your nose they will work their magic quickly.

Jackie's July giveaway is a sample size body balm in a "Sunny Day" scent and she says her August giveaway will be her biggest yet! Check out her very informative Glory Be Herbals blog and her etsy shop here.

Thanks again Jackie!

April Bluegrass Team Giveaway!

This month's Bluegrass team giveaway comes to us from Sara at The Savvy Stitcher.


Reduce. Reuse. Recycle!

Attention coffee lovers: Help save the planet by using this cute fabric coffee cozy every time you get your to-go coffee!

This fabric coffee cozy will keep your hands cool while drinking your favorite hot beverage.

Each cozy is approximately 3 inches (7.62 cm) wide and will fit most to-go coffee cups. The elastic band keeps it snug and secure around your coffee cup, while allowing it to be adjustable to fit different cup sizes. (Pictured on a 16 oz cup)

Fun, designer fabric is used outside, and I have lined the center with cotton batting for extra comfort and thickness! A fun and funky button is used on each of the adjustable cozies to keep them closed. The others simply slip on the bottom of the cup, but still fit most coffee cups.

Rolls up nicely to keep in your purse or car!

Fully washable. Lay flat to dry.

*See my shop for more choices of color and pattern!*
