The weather up here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest has been fabulous of late, to say the least, with more spectacular weather in the forecast for the upcoming next few days. (sorry for those of you living where the weather is still cold.) The spring like weather puts me in the mood to plant flowers and head over to the Dog Park with Moose every spare afternoon that I can find. It also makes me want to create, and to clean, and to organize. (Although my plans always seem to somehow get side tracked in regards to cleaning and organizing.)
Anyway.
I was in the unpack-and-organize mode yesterday, and I decided that since the first day of spring is this Saturday (I know! Can you believe it's already going to be spring of 2010?! Time flies.) I'd do a Giveaway here on my blog to celebrate.
The Giveaway package includes everything pictured up top...The Spring Cleaning book, one of my "Nest Full of Happy Thoughts", and a vintage apron. All of these vintage treasures have been gathered from around my own home.
To enter my First Day of Spring drawing, simply leave a comment on this post, and this Saturday, March 20th, I will announce the winner. Get an extra chance at having your name drawn by linking my post on your blog. (And shoot me an email or comment to let me know this.)



oooh! Let me be first to drop my name in the hat! HAPPY SPRING!
