Hi everyone! I think changing my fireplace banner to spring did the trick! We’ve had lovely weather ever since!
I have a lot of things to celebrate this week besides the weather. My birthday is on 3/11. PLUS this is my 311th post (I guess I should have posted this on Thursday – pretend I did)!
I thought I’d have a little giveaway to celebrate! Since I love, love, love my rooster tassel from Heather, I think a tassel giveaway would be fun. I mean, who doesn’t like tassels?
Isn’t this one cute!
How about this one? 
Maybe this? 
The winner will be able to choose ANY tassel in Heather’s etsy Butterfly Genes.
The Important Stuff – HOW TO ENTER:
1. Heather has very graciously offered me free shipping so this giveaway is open only to
U.S. and Canadian readers.
Sorry!
2. Just leave a comment on this post. That’s it! You have until Friday night. I’ll announce the winner on Saturday morning.
3. The tassels available between now and when the winners chooses one may change since Heather will add some and of course sell some between now and then.
Remember – The winner will be able to choose ANY tassel in her shop not just the ones I showed.
I’m off to have some birthday fun and eat lots of bad for me food!
Count me in, Manuela! What fun. Love that little nest.

I LOVE your blog. I don't blog myself, but I do enjoy reading others who do. I have you marked in my 'favorites'. Not sure if that makes me a 'follower' or not, but I really do read your posts all the time. You have a beautiful home, and you do the most creative and frugal things that look so rich and impressive. Your home speaks highly of the care you put into what you do… I'd love to win one of those tassels!
happy birthday to you!!

Well first of all…I'd like to wish you a very Happy Birthday, dear lady! And…a hearty congratulations on your 311th post! That is just awesome!!!
Ooh…your floral bouquet in that beautiful white pitcher is simply gorgeous! So Springy!!! Girl, I had to go and look at your mantel after you said that you had done a little Spring fluffing! It's really beautiful!!! I love the topiaries and moss balls! Ohhh…and those beautiful yellow plates with the pretty flowers!!! What a great transformation! Hmmm…now I'm thinking that I should go and change mine…to a little Spring fluffing! You said that it brought good weather? It's snowing at my place…I could use all the help I can get! Hehe! Anyway, thank you for sharing your lovely bouquet and Spring mantel with us…I really enjoyed them!
I also wanted to thank you for coming by and taking a peek at my Birds of a Feather tablescape…and for leaving me such a sweet note! I sure did enjoy it! Thank you!!!

Anyway, not sure husband is thrilled about it but it makes me happy to have some color in our home. stepping out of my comfort zone. Fun!!!! Thank you again for your beautiful blog.
