How About a Christmas GIVEAWAY???

-
***Update: this giveaway is now closed. Click here to see who won!***


My real-life and blogging BFF Kati and I have a lot in common...

...we grew up best friends
...our parents are friends
...our grandparents were friends
...we both blog
...we both run Etsy shops
...we are giving you a Christmas present!!!!!

If you haven't yet visited Kraven, Kati's new blog, then you are in for a treat! She is hosting the 25 Days of Christmas right now, and as part of the fun, she has offered to give away 2 items from her shop - one on her blog, and one on mine. What fun!

The first item is a toddler size girl's hat.  This beanie is crocheted from warm, soft yarn in white, teal, and gray.  It features a contrasting band with a flower applique.




So cute, right?


The second item is a teen/woman's size ear warmer headband.  This item is also crocheted from warm, soft yarn in clear blue.  The headband features a colonial blue flower.  It is approximately 4-5 inches wide and made to stretch for a snug, comfortable fit.


She is so talented! I love the looks of both of these items, and wouldn't they make great last-minute Christmas gifts? Actually, scratch that...these are too cute to give away, why don't you keep them for yourself. {wink!}

But there is more: either of these items can be personalized with a hand-stitched name. Woot!

Now for the technical deets:
Who can enter this giveaway?
Anyone! Yes--that means you!
How does this giveaway work?
Beginning RIGHT NOW and ending Friday at 3 p.m. EST, you can enter to win!  On Friday, two winners will be chosen to receive the prizes listed above.  If you are a winner, the item will be shipped to you free of cost.

Some Friday Love: Recipe Binder Printable!

-
Image
To celebrate this beautiful Friday evening (aren't Friday's just the best of days?) I have a FREE printable for you! I have to admit that I don't have a recipe binder, but a reader asked if I could make a printable to match the others for a recipe binder. If there is one thing I love, it is making printables that meet the needs of my readers! This blog would be pretty boring without you, so passing on some love in the way of printables is the least I can do! Anyway, back to the printable. How did I get on the sappy train? I really was not sure what all is included on a recipe binder page, but here is what I came up with: Then I thought that maybe there are some people out there that prefer to write teeny tiny and save space, and would like two recipes to a sheet. So I shrunk everything down and came up with this: Hopefully this will be a help! I could totally do a B&W version or size it for a half sized binder, if you prefer. After making these sheets, I began to see ...

"Frasier Island" Book Review and Giveaway!

Last month I spoke at a Christian Writer's Conference and met beautiful authors such as Susan Page Davis. I recently read her book, Frasier Island , and I am so excited to tell you about it! It is easy to tell when you've got your hands on a good book, and friends, this is a good book . It is full of mystery and intrigue, unexpected twists and plots, and just enough romance woven through to make it not over-the-top-lovey-dovey. Romance novels aren't really my thing, but a well written, informative, interesting mystery is! The story line takes Ensign Rachel Whitney to a new post on a remote scrap of rock in the Pacific called Frasier Island. Living there in isolation with two other soldiers, both Rachel and Lt. George Hudson are running from their past...and ultimately towards each other. While guarding a highly classified secret for the US Government, Rachel comes to realize the importance of letting God have His rightful place in her life. It is rare for a woman to be pu...

Quick Tip Tuesday: Facebook. Just Stop.

I have to say, I never, ever thought I'd be writing this post. But here we go. The goal of these quick tips is to simplify. Because really, isn't that the goal of every organizing project? We find a system that isn't working - something that aggravates our daily routine, and frankly, aggravates us! And we tear it apart and make an even bigger mess than before so we can find a better system that simplifies life. These quick projects do the same thing, with the added benefit of being, well, quick! These are quick fixes that take little or no time but have a big impact. Today's quick tip? Just stop with all the Facebook. Now hear me out. I am not getting rid of Facebook. It is one of the main ways I communicate with not only my immediate family in Canada, but my extended family and close friends that live all across the globe. And one day I realized...I'm spending a lot of time on Facebook NOT doing those things. Instead, I was scrolling through a lot of ...
