I have met so many creative, kind, smart and generous people. I have been so encouraged by all your sweet comments. You have been such a blessing to me in so many ways.Your friendship is very precious to me and I appreciate every one of you.
Thank you for all your sweet comments and emails. Thank you for sharing your lives with me and letting me share mine with you.
So I've got a few things to give away as a small token of my appreciation of all of you.A picture frame.
A little vintage floral tin box
A mini enamel teapot from my collection
Do you know what this is? It's a little holder for clothespins! It would be hung up by the little hook at the collar. Isn't it too cute?
A vintage dessert plate.
A needlepoint sign, just perfect for those mornings when you want to sleep in!
A delightful book about the charms of the front porch. Don't we all love a front porch?
Here's everything. Oh and there is a little porcelain box that I forgot to show a larger picture of. It's on the plate.
This is just a little collection of things which I have treasured and thought you might like.Just leave a comment on this post. I'm going to be away so I'll pick the winner when I get back on Nov. 3.
Also I have a wonderful little video for you to enjoy. I'm sure it will bless you. I just loved it.
Just click on the word JOY
Thanks for stopping by!

Congrats Rhondi on 200 posts! Doesn't time just fly when you're busy blogging? You're giving away such cute treasures; I especially like the little clothespin holder. I remember cute holders my grandmothers' kept out on their clotheslines.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Rhondi! I always enjoy dropping by your blog! You have such a kind, generous spirit!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 200th post. I too have been richly blessed by my blogging friends.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

200 lovely posts! That's quite an accomplishment, Rhondi - congratulations! Your writing gives such pleasure to so many of us in such farflung places. So thank you!
ReplyDeleteYour treasures are lovely - so generous of you to share!!
It's me again. I meant to say that I have exactly the Bing & Grondahl figurine that you bought at the thrift store. It may be $125 on ebay but it is much more in shops! The Great Dane and I bought ours 35 years ago, on our honeymoon in Copenhagen, at the B&G store on the Stroget. We'd received some money as a gift and wanted a beautiful souvenir of our trip - our 35 anniversary was last week and the figurine has had pride of place in the many homes we've made around the world.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely give-away! I would love to receive this one!!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your blog, and your photographer very much!
Katherine
Hi, I found your blog through Edie Marie's Attic. Please enter me in the giveaway and stop by my blog sometime. And congratulations on your 200th post -- pretty impressive for only one year. By the way, I have a little clothespin bag that is a little dress -- they are cute.
ReplyDeleteHi Rhondi,
ReplyDeleteI saw your comments on Heidi's blog and wanted to come see.

Rhondi - Your blog was one of the very first few I started reading and returned and returned! I am impressed - 200 postings! With that many, you have no idea how many people you have benefited in so many ways. Some probably have learned to go thrifting and be more creative at home; while others may gather emotional strength from you pleasing way of writing about simple everyday things at home. Thanks for sharing with us who "wanto bee" like you!
