400+ Follower, 300-Posts - Oh Let's Just Call It a Spring Giveaway!

Sometimes when I'm out and about I think of you.  Yes, you.  I think of how much I enjoy visiting your blog.  Or I am so grateful you stop by for a quick visit, even if you don't have a blog.

So, in honor of spring and you,
I'm having a little giveaway.

Giveaway now closed!
Congratulations to Lois Laughlines!
You'll be receiving:

 a lovely robin's egg blue polka dotted mixing bowl by Spode,

A cheery Easter towel,

A handmade spring garland (um...not this one, 'cause I accidentally bent it, but one VERY similar - LOL),

An assortment of Shabby Chic magnets and tags,

And this sweet little teacup print.

(Sorry, the wire cake stand is not included in the giveaway.)
Here are the rules:

1.  Please leave a comment to enter.

2.  If you would like a second opportunity, please post my little sidebar picture on your blog and let me know you've done so with a second comment.

3.  PLEASE BE SURE TO LEAVE ME A WAY TO CONTACT YOU!  

4.  And, really, I mean it.  You don't have to be a follower to enter.   But, of course, if you decide to follow I'd love it if you would!

5.  Sorry friends from overseas, but due to shipping, this giveaway is only open to U.S. and Canada. 

6.  This giveaway ends on Saturday, April 16 at midnight and I hope to get it to you so you receive it before Easter.

And thank you.  Thank you for your kind words, prayers, thoughts, and visits.
You - yes you - are a blessing in my life.
That goes for everybody here at Sweet Bee Cottage.

    Sweet Giveaway! I know I have been missing. Now that I'm a 8:30-5:00 girl I just don't get around much to read about all my friends. :-(
    I laughed out loud when I read your comment about the wire stand because just before I read it the thought "cute wire stand" went through my pea brain...LOL. That Janelle knows us all too well!
    Congrats on the 400th 300th. I'm working my way through all the old updates.
