I am working on rounding up some special things to award the winner of the “Copy Me Challenge” and thought I would give you a peek. First of all, 175 entries so far! I am so overwhelmed at that number. I was expecting about 50 or so. It’s been inspiring and fun to look at the links. I love how all of you embraced the challenge in your own way. Some have made me laugh, some made me blush, others were humbling and so sweet.
You all deserve prizes, but that would certainly break the bank, so I’m putting together one really great prize. I’m even going shopping for the winner tomorrow at Lucketts and Wild Rose.
Here are a few things I’ve rounded up so far…
…an ironstone bowl…
….it has a hallmark on the bottom and a delicate design around the base.
(Muffins not included. I just couldn’t resist having a little photo shoot with them.)
…four embossed silver forks…
…some Bakelite forks…
(What’s with all the forks?)
…and an antique book of cello music. AND that’s just the beginning. This box is going to be packed with vintage and antique goodies.
If you haven’t entered the challenge, yet, it’s not too late. Just go to the link party to join in.
One of my amazing sponsors, The Shabby Chic Boutique, is having a 20% off sale through Valentine’s Day. Enter coupon code BeMyValentine to receive your discount. I’m in love with these silver spoons…
(These will go great with all of the forks someone is about to win. I’m just sayin’.)
One last thing…my blog was featured in the Budget Decorating section of About.com. Pretty cool!

Can I vote for the muffins? *wink*
Would you believe , being a blogger, I don't own one piece of ironstone. I love it, just never see any around my area! I most likely am not winning but it was fun learning how much like two amazing bloggers I was!
What, no muffins? I'm outta here! I'd hate to have to chose the winner, I saw a lot of great inspirations and just barely scratched the surface. Hugs~Kim
Oh dear. I really wanted to get in on this challenge, but time just hasn't permitted. Now I'm desperately wishing I had even a chance at that ironstone bowl.
Nice prizes! Wish you were shopping for me! 😉
question…i want to enter something in the contest, but my blog is for family only now (it's not all crafts anymore…it's family stuff)…can we email entries to you?
thanks!
