The posts you have read over the past two days were written on Sunday and if you follow me on Twitter, you know I took a spur-of-the-moment trip to Kentucky. It's been a busy few days...yes, even busy by my standards...and now I'm home. Whew. I apologize for not posting a winner of the Stella and Dot giveaway, but I just didn't have the time to do it, so the winner is announced at the bottom of this post. When I got home, it was amazing to see my husband and little boys and I was also greeted by several boxes of goodies. I love goodies. I received some Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint (including the new white), some t-shirts and pillow cases from Dear Lillie, a shelf and soap dispenser from Post Road Vintage and an amazing haul of hand sewn runners, pillows and stockings from Sutton Place Designs.
I'll show off everything in other posts, but Ann from Sutton Place Designs made these vintage ticking pillows...
...(which look fabulous on my sofa), some white linen pillows...
...and two huge boxes of more goodies. This lady can sew. Wow.
Last week, Mini Mustard Seed and I started having some fun with paper. It's the time of year where I have to get geared up for Christmas, so we're turning out wreaths, ornaments and toppers. I'm hoping to also add some new ideas to my "Christmas line" this year.
Perhaps doing more with the shredded vintage paper I am using as nesting for my pumpkins...
Oh...and look who I got to hang out with in Kentucky..
For those who don't know, that's Traci from Beneath My Heart. It was so awesome to hang out with her, even though it was just for a quick dinner.
OK, lastly...the winner of the $50 Stella & Dot Giveaway is...
Sorry this post is all over the place, but I've had about five hours of sleep each of the last two nights, so I'm not at my sharpest! It's definitely early to bed for me tonight.
