Lady Butterbug Wax Brush Giveaway

From the moment I heard about these wax brushes, I wanted one. Some girls like shoes or purses or jewelry. Just give me a cool DIY tool…even better, a brush.  I now have a few of these brushes and I use them all the time for waxing furniture.  They have all served me very well.

 

It’s a compact, stiff brush with a wide, flat surface that’s perfect for covering large areas like table tops, but also getting into the nooks and crannies of carved details and turned legs.

 

 

I’ve used it in  many different waxes from Fiddes & Sons to Annie Sloan’s Soft Wax, Briwax, Johnson’s, Minwax and Mylands.  It’s worked well with all of the different textures.

 

Have you wanted to try one?  Or two?   (Now there’s a 1.5″ brush for smaller projects and finer details.)  Well, Karla from Lady Butterbug is giving away SIX pairs of brushes.  That’s right.  Six winner will be chosen at random to win one large and one small wax brush each.

Here are some more details about the brushes…

“These brushes are professionally manufactured right here in the good old USA. These are premium quality and we truly believe you will love them for applying wax to furniture pieces. They are made using the finest quality white boar bristles available. The wooden handles are double set in epoxy into a nickel plated ferrule. The brushes are available in the standard 2” round and we have added a 1.5” round as well. The 1.5” brush has really been a hit for smaller jobs and applying a dark wax in smaller amounts.”

Here’s how to enter…

1. Leave a comment on this post and you’re entered to win.

2. For a second chance to win, visit Lady Butterbug’s blog, become a follower and come back here to leave a comment letting me know you have.

3. For one last opportunity, “like” Lady Butterbug on Facebook and leave one last comment letting me know you have.

The giveaway is only open to residents of the lower 48 US States and readers over the age of 18.  Entries will be accepted through Sunday, December 18, 2011 at midnight PST.  The six winners will be announced Monday, December 19.

Good luck to all and thanks so much to Karla!

perfection vs. personality

Most of the time, when I’m working on something that requires something of me physically, but allows my mind to wander – gardening, painting, cleaning, drawing, walking – I put on music or listen to a podcast or audiobook.  But sometimes, I give my mind quiet to see what thoughts

I was meandering through Instagram one day and came across An Acre of Land.  I was immediately drawn to the photography, the styling, and the layers of feminine, generously gathered skirts.  I pressed the follow button.  For months, maybe even years, I would admire the clothes, which are just my
