100th Post Giveaway !

on
Woohoo !!! My 100th post on Blogger ... the first was made on March 20th. Almost 5 months since I switched for Blogger, and goodness, I wonder why I hadn't done that before ! I've been blogging since 2001, approximately. Wow. Anyway ... a Giveaway I promised so ... here is a Giveaway for you !! A Homemaking Giveaway, mind you. You probably can't see on the first pic what the loot is made of, so here are the details ... if you're interested, of course. If you are not, you're welcome to read & look at the pics anyway !a guest towel I embellishedEiffel Tower shaped pastas6 silicone muffin mouldsa pack of Herbes de Provence seeds (to sow)a French flag's colors themed needlecase I sewed todaya tiny little bag (that closes) to throw in the washing machine, for your tiny & delicate things (that can go in the machine !), can be handy (specially with kids)... and a small bag of Haribo Dragibus candies (for you or to share ... LOL)

So here we go ... that lovely loot will be the content of my first ever Giveaway ! Now, all you have to do (and it's simple) if you're interested is to leave a comment, letting me know :

- that you want to enter the contest (obviously, and because not everyone may want to enter it)
- your name, of course !
- since when (approximately !) you've been reading my blog (and/or how you found it)
- where you live (if you have time to add that)

I will be picking a comment (with the online random generator) on August 17th (Sunday) evening (MY evening) , and will announce the name of the winner then, right afterwards.
GOOD LUCK to everyone ! And, please please please, don't be shy, and even if you are a silent reader (as I am on some blogs !), take your chance & say "hi" !! Thanks a lot in advance !
If this Giveaway turns out to be a "success", then I'll probably will make other, and probably season/holiday themed, and more craft oriented, too.

OK, this took me a-g-e-s to type this (and everything that goes around, like photo taking & resizing ...etc), specially that the boys are forever calling me when I'm at the computer ... so I probably won't post tomorrow, which is going to be busy anyway. (shopping for food at two shops, with the boys, by foot, is always quite an adventure !)
I managed to squeeze a little craft yesterday ... machine sewn Get Well cards (set of 3), that will go to my Etsy shop very soon.One last thing ... this is a precious (and quiet) moment of today ... the boys reading/looking at The Bearenstains books, in mommy/daddy's bed ... lovely, precious. (to me)I hope everyone's been having a lovely week so far !! Big hugs to all !! OXOX
PS : you may have noticed I changed the layout here, not the images though, and I removed the SayBox too. I hope it's working fine for all visitors.

    Hi Sonia! I (Darylynn) definitely want to enter your contest! :D I've been reading your blog since you first began it because I've known you since your Weekend in Paris days! :D

    Yes, YouTube would be good for your videos and if you add ones with the boys you can PW them and let only your friends see. (((Hugz)))

    Sonia!
    What a lovely post!
    I don't wish to enter. I have such lovely things in my home from you already, and it would be so unfair.
    Just wanted to let you know that your give-away looks great!!
    I am Anna by the way, and I live in France.... although goodness knows I am so not from here, not sure where I am from any more :)
    But I got to know you from purchasing one of your wonderful banners, and have been hooked every since... Please don't ask me when. I tend to even forget my own name at times ... *smiles*
    Sending love! xxx

    Hi Sonia! I am so glad that you found my blog, and in turn I found you. I do have a question though... did you get my Mom for the Christmas Gift Swap? Cherri House? It's a small world.

    I would love to enter your contest
    I just found your blog today
    I live in Rexburg, Idaho but I am from Houston, Texas.

    thanks again,
    Lizzy House
