As I’ve been working on my “how my business began” series, I have had to dig through old posts to find pictures and I’ve been reminded of some things I had forgotten about. One of the things I tripped across was a giveaway I ran when I reached 2000 followers on my blog – the “Miss Mustard Seed in a Box” giveaway.
I offered up a few of my favorite things, including ironstone, a feed sack, bakelite knives, a balance scale and more.
Seeing that old post made me smile. It reminded me of a time when I counted every single follower and watched my numbers with eagerness. I still do that at times, but it’s not like opening a daily Christmas present, as it once was.
After “the post” I wrote, asking you what you wanted from my blog, I feel like it’s been a fresh start and some of that excitement and anticipation for the future has returned. I have all of you to thank for that. For your honest feedback and for your encouragement as I shifted gears. And, as a thank you, I would like to offer up a giveaway from me of some of my favorite things…
…another “Miss Mustard Seed in a Box”.
What’s in the box…
Three quarts of MMS Milk Paint in the colors of your choosing.
Six MMSMP samples, our full line of European Colours.
A brush soap and distressing wax puck…
A large bottle of Hemp Oil…
A bottle of Bonding Agent…
A container of MMS Glass Glitter in Tiara (silver)…
A spool of blue & white baker’s twine…
One of my books, Inspired You, and a MMSMP Look Book One…
And some typical Miss Mustard Seed antique finds, like this wooden tote…
One antique hemp sheet…
An antique blue & white compote…
An alarm clock…
A set of six knives with bakelite handles…
And a covered ironstone dish…
If you’re interested in winning, just leave a comment letting me know what your favorite item in the box would be if you won!
The giveaway is only opened to those over the age of 18. International readers are eligible to win. The giveaway will end Friday, October 16, 2015 at midnight PST. A winner will be announced on Monday.

And, for those who have been asking, I finally scheduled a few workshops in the Mustard Seed Studio. I’ve listed a Milk Paint BYOF (bring your own furniture) Workshop for Oct 30, a Milk Paint 101 Workshop for Oct 31 and a Glass Glitter Workshop for Nov 21.
i can not just pick one. the clock and the MMSMP look book. i look forward to your blog post.
How lovely of you!!!! I would love to play with the milk paint colors, but I think my ultimate fave would be that gorgeous compote!
Wow, such a generous giveaway! It’s so hard to say what would be my favorite but if I had to choose it would be the milk paint. Thank you so much for the chance to win this awesome loot!!!
Oh my, it is so hard to choose because I love it all! This may sound strange but the paint brush is my favorite. I am very particular about the brushes I use and it is a good one!!
Wow! What a generous giveaway! My favorite would have have to be the milk paint, followed by the ironstone.
Wow what an amazing giveaway! l I love every single item,but I’m really kinda partial to the ironstone. I have quite a few projects lined up and that milk paint would come in pretty handy too.Thanks so much for the chance to win. Fingers crossed!
Oh, the milk paint of course, so i can paint the wooden tote! That will be lovely!
My jaw dropped reading this post! What a generous give away!!!! My favorite thing would be the antique hemp sheet! And all of the other antique finds. Each one makes me smile. They are all special. It literally is you in a box 🙂
This is a hard one….hard to pick…but if forced I’d say the antique hemp sheet. Those are so scarce in my area. But I’ve got about 6 other favorites in this amazing collection as well…,,fingers crossed!!
I would so loooove to have a hemp sheet. I have never even felt one. I am afraid it will leave me spoiled to get one. But I want one sooooo bad. And that compote ,argh, to die for. I know you said 1 thing but I love it all. I gasped several times reading the whole list.
The covered ironstone dish!
Wow! What an amazing giveaway! I really love all the pieces and could put everything to good use, but I especially would like to try your hemp oil. I really want to see wood revived in my own hands! Spoons, knife handles, boards, etc. that sounds exciting !
I also would love some more of your paint! I want to do my bathroom vanity with several blue shades and distressed to see the different colors but my hubby thinks that’s breaking the bank right now for us.
Thanks Marian for a beautiful giveaway!
It’s so hard to pick a favorite since it’s a whole box full of goodness, but if I absolutely had to pick my favorite it would have to be the compote. I love anything on a pedestal!
What a great give away! I want the knives!
I love the covered ironstone dish!
What an amazing assortment of goodies! I love your blog and am enjoying the direction you’ve been taking your posts. It’s hard to pick a favorite, but I think the blue and white compote. I am currently planning my wedding and this matches the look I am going for! The blue color, antique look and the floral pattern are perfect- a good inspiration piece.
I love the covered ironstone dish. And having a chance to experiment with that assortment of paint colors would be absolutely awesome!
I think I’d cry if I won all that! haha. What a lovely giveaway.
Enjoy your blog so much…and instagram.
My favorite would be the hemp oil. I bought a little bottle
of your hemp oil a few months ago to put on a home cut
bread board and it is the most gorgeous thing in my kitchen!
Thank you for the chance! Fingers crossed…and toes! haha.
That’s a hard choice. I love love love your hemp oil – I use it so many things. And that compote dish is fabulous! But I’ve got to say, having one of your brushes would be the best!
Wowsers! It is all so wonderful! I actually got giddy when I saw that bottle of hemp oil and the paint brush. Ha! The other stuff is beautiful, but I drool over all of your hemp oil pieces.
Wow, hard choice! I gotta go with the ironstone dish as my favorite thing.Blessings to you for your generosity!
Everything is lovely and would be thoroughly enjoyed in this home! I have to say the hemp sheet because I have a chair just begging to meet it. This could be like a furniture match.com. ?
Oh my goodness! It is all so fabulous, but I would love to try the hemp oil wood finish. Thanks for such a generous giveaway!
I would love to have the blue and white compote. What a fabulous giveaway!
Betsy
Oh my goodness, that is a tough decision…which I like the best. The alarm clock definitely caught my eye. I love the patina on it. And then, of course, the ironstone…I would love to add a few pieces to my collection.
Thanks so much for this wonderful giveaway!
My favorite thing in the box is the hemp oil! I’ve seen you transform so much with this and keep meaning to get some!
The paint. I have been itching to try it but just haven’t taken the plunge yet!! Thank you! Cristen
Oh my goodness sakes alive, one thing? Takes deep breath, exhales, covered ironstone dish is my favorite.
what an amazing list of wonderful things! I love every single one of them, I I believe my blood pressure went up about 10 points when I saw the hemp sheet! Thanks for the chance.
What a fabulous giveaway. It is a hard choice but I would choose the ironstone. Loving your blog since you wrote asking foe imput. You can tell you have a newer and fresh approach to your posts. Loved the series on how your house evolved.
Wow! This giveaway is so much fun, and generous on your part,Miss Mustard Seed.
My favorite item would be your milk paint.
The milk paint and hemp oil 😉
Wow, that is like hitting the Miss Mustard Seed lottery. My favorite thing is the hemp oil. I’ve been meaning to buy a bottle to try. I have several wood items that I think could use a hemp oiling.
Wow! What a treat for a chance to win! So many goodies in this give-away. I think I would be most interested in the European color samples…and the brush…and everything else! Thanks for the opportunity!
My favorite would be the milk paint and hemp oil. I’ve been wanting to try the hemp oil for a while now to refurbish all the wood in my house! Thank you so much for offering this little bit of you. I so enjoy your blog, advice, and outlook on life! Im really looking forward to the customers rooms you are doing!
Is there anything left in your studio after this giveaway? I would be most excited about receiving MMS paint. I have never had the opportunity to try milk paint, and you always make it sound so appealing.
Ooh, that’s a tough question, the paint, the ironstone, and the hemp sheet. I think it would be the sheet. I had never even heard of hemp sheets until I started reading your blog. Thank you for this giveaway!
my favorite would be the hemp oil—–just because I’ve never seen it available near me. My second favorite thing is the ironstone because I don’t have any.
Oh that antique hemp sheet <3 and iron stone, it all would be amazing to win! just so happens all your favorite things are mine to!
So many great things! I think my favorite would be the milk paint. Is there a more amazing red than tricycle?–I think not.
Very difficult to choose just one! 🙂 If I have to choose it would be the milk paint. We are just starting to find furniture for our new home, and I would love to try out the techniques you have shown us on them.:)
Um, it would have to be the hemp sheet! I use & love your paints all the time. In fact, I’m painting a bed my husband made for our guest room out of salvaged doors in Schloss. But I would pick the hemp sheet because I’ve not seen/handled one and I’m most curious about it!!
What a lovely giveaway! Though it’s hard to pick a favorite, and the milk paint would be great, old clocks make me smile.
I love the little ironstone dish! Would love to try the paint too!!
Oh my goodness! I don’t know how I can pick a favorite! There is sooo much beauty in this “box.” If I had to choose I would select the MMSP Milk Paint! Love it all!!!!
Decisions, decisions….I am so torn, but the compote is something I have been looking for and it is so beautiful!
Oh, how does one choose?! Love everything in the box!! I would say I love the ironstone piece, the paint, and then the alarm clock ! Thanks for the chance to win!
I have a small collection of the blue and white ironstone so I love the compote! So many fun things to do with it. But I also love the new paint colors. Thanks again for such a fun blog to read.
What a beautiful giveaway. The compote and the hemp sheet are making me swoon…
I love all the beautiful pieces that are included in this marvelous giveaway, but my next crafter’s dream is to get my hands on some MMS Milk Paint, as each piece I view finished with MMS is always my “new” most favorite piece! Thank you for such a wonderful giveaway!!
Dear Miss Mustard Seed,
Your giveaway is not only generous, but inspiring! Whoever becomes the lucky winner will be inspired to create, create and create! Of all the products, I believe I would enjoy your paint and paint brush the most. As a newly wed I have learned to rely on paint and freebies from the side of the road to create a warm and welcoming home for my family. All DIY painters know, your paint is only as good as your paint brush! I would love to try out your new paint brush.
I love the Alarm Clock. It is just like one I saw a few years ago and kick myself for not buying then! I would keep it in my home office on my desk so that I had a little piece of happiness to look at during those long office days on conference calls. I travel for work, so finding pieces for my house feel like home is important. I’m in love with the blog–just discovered it. Keep up the posts–I’m learning so much. Can’t wait for try the Milk Paint and wax!
How do I choose a favorite!?!? My heart skipped a few beats as I was scrolling through the prizes! If I have to pick, I’d say the samples of your European line. I would love to get my hands on those beauties!!
That blue and white compote is lovely!! That would be my fav I think-
It would be like Christmas opening that package! My favorite would be the paint.
i would love the hemp sheet, the tureen, the paint…. would be an early Christmas gift
The items in the box look like they were collected by someone I should thrift shop with!! I must say that I have my eye on the paint products, as I have painting with MMS Milk Paint on my repurpose bucket list, and it would certainly be a truly special privilege to have all of the wonderful tools needed to make a beautiful piece worthy of Miss Mustard herself 😉
I love EVERYTHING in the box. But, I have always wanted some Miss Mustard Seed glass glitter, so I would have to say that is my favorite! Thanks for offering such a generous giveaway!!!!
How can I just pick one thing that is my favorite….. Hmmmmm this probably sounds silly but I am really looking forward to trying out your paint brush. I have already asked my husband to get it for me as a stocking stuffer. I would also LOVE to add some colors to my MMS collection on milk paint!! Just took a workshop and I just love all the colors! The alarm clock is really cute too. Ok so that was more than one favorite thing. You are a true inspiration
I love the covered ironstone dish!
I love the wooden tote. And the glitter.
My favorite thing is the ironstone compote!
It’s hard to choose! It’s a toss up between your milk paint or the hemp sheet. Your blog has turned me on to both and has helped me create some beauty in my home. Thank you!
Marian,
WOW!!! What an awesome GIVEAWAY! I would enjoy all of it, but that hemp sheet would be a great item to win…so please count me in.
Blessings,
Linda
Marian I don’t know which favorite would be my absolute favorite!
The hemp sheet I think, which I might even use as a sheet, or else upholster something now that you’ve given me the courage to try. But the array of paints are a close second and the fabulous alarm clock might actually be loud enough to wake my teenage son in the morning…
What a great giveaway. I love the ironstone–so cute!
Your books would ne the best, but OMG WHAT A BOX!!!! Love to have it all.
the ironstone is my favorite. It’s so hard to find it around here!
It is so hard to pick one! I LOVE them all:) The alarm clock’s numbers are so neat. I love the covered Ironstone dish and would love adding it to my collection. I have been wanting to try using an antique hemp sheet so this would be the perfect for me as well. Thanks for the give away opportunity.
Choose just one favorite?!
The paint brush… The European colors… The hemp oil…. The hemp sheet…
Well this might be the best giveaway EVER… and the items you are including are all right up my alley… but I have never tried your milk paint and the thought of winning a few different colors sounds amazing! I am also never felt a hemp sheet so that’s a close second. Fantastic! Marcy
I was so excited to see this give away offer. How generous of you! I am having a hard time naming only one thing as my favorite. If I must pick, it would be your paint/supplies and brush. I have wanted to get an assortment of your paint and experiment with your brush but my budget just hasn’t permitted me to get these things. I have so many projects in my mind and would love to bring them to fruition if I win. Thanks for the chance!
Hi Marian,
Oh my heart skips a beat at each item. I would luv the antique hemp sheet to Marianize my armchair. Thanks for the opportunity.
Wow, it’s like Christmas in October! I love the compote and have been dying to try your milk paint. I have the perfect dresser for it! Love, love, love your style, wish my house looked like yours!
I’m hoping to win and what would excite me most is winning the paint and the wooden tote! You are my greatest inspiration for my painting right now and my heart flutters every time I see a new blog by Miss Mustard Seed!
Such a fun and generous give away! I’d be very excited about the Milk Paint.. I’ve been wanting to give it a try for a long time! 🙂
What an amazing prize! I think I would be most excited by the hemp sheet.
Oh. My. Gosh! That’s an amazing giveaway! I’d have to say I would looooove the covered ironstone dish. But it’s a pretty close race with many of the other fabulous goodies!
OOOH… I love the compote, so pretty! I also would be keen on getting more hemp oil, I’m almost out (love this stuff) 🙂
It’s an incredibly generous giveaway of beautiful things but I love the paint!
I absolutely love the antique blue and white compote!!!!! And of course your milk paint. 😉
Your talent still amazes me. And how can I choose? Besides the milk paint, I love the blue and white compote, and the ironstone, and…
Thank you for this opportunity!
Sherry
Like you, I adore ironstone! That covered fish is darling. 🙂
Wow! That Blue & White Compote would be just the perfect finishing touch to our master bedroom, on my nightstand as a ring holder. Need to start looking for that in the antique shops!
This giveaway is awesome. Its difficult to choose but i think your books , thank you so much!!!
My favorite would be the samples!
I love the blue and white compote! It is lovely!
What a beautiful idea from a beautiful lady, Marian…. I love it all, especially the glass glitter and the ironstone, but what I know I would enjoy most is your book…
Thanks for giving us something to dream about!
Cindy
Oh my!!! I absolutely adore your blog and style and thank you for this awesome giveaway. Definitely the antique blue and white compote because of its elegance and seems like something I would be able to cherish more. Of course the items are all lovely!
Wow! That’s some swag bag!! My favorites are the paints. But there’s nothing “meh” in that box at all!
Those European colors were my favorites the day they were introduced and would be the first thing I would use from the giveaway.
This prize would be like Christmas
two months early!!!
A fantastic prize for a lucky reader!
Oh my, someone is really getting a treat! It’s hard to pick a favorite with so many fun choices, but I would have to say the paints and that brush! I need a nudge to get out of a rut and am intrigued with the idea of your milk paint. Actually, I need a big shove. Thank you and Kriste for all your inspiration.
Thanks Marine for the Fabulious and generous give away.i would like to try your mms European paint samples love all your color’s. And as far as the rest of theFab. Stuff I like it to…
Wow! No question about it my favorite is the hemp sheet. Thanks so much for the opportunity to win such a generous gift.
I would love your MMSMP in the yellow that you painted the dresser you made the film about. You inspired me to go for it!! Thank you everyday for your blog. I love reading it daily ,)
I would love the MMSMP yellow that your did a film about. You inspired me to go for it!!i look forward to your post everyday. Thanks!! ,)
Wow, what a generous giveaway!! My favorite is the antique blue and white compote. Thanks!!
I love it all! its amazing! I do love the alarm clock though… so cute!! but it is so hard to chose just one thing! everything is so wonderful! what a generous gift!
Let’s see… The hemp sheet, the glass glitter, all of the fun projecting MMMP paint, love my Pasoons brush… I’m excited to win it ALL?. Thank you for your generosity! What a great giveaway!!!
That giveaway is gorgeous!!! It’s a great representation of MMS, and it would all fit beautifully in my home. 🙂 My fav would have to be either the paint colors I would love to try or the ironstone. There’s none around here.
I would LOVE to try out your paint on the dresser in my boys room in typewriter. I’m ready to give their room a complete makeover!
Marian – What a wonderful collection you’ve put together! I am just finishing up a blue and white bedroom and have a perfect spot for the antique blue & white compote. I also have an project that calls for some hemp oil and, of course, would love the paints & your new brush. But if we have to pick just one favorite, I’ll stick with he compote. I’m in a “use it or lose it” mode at my house!! Thanks for all the inspiration on your blog!!
This is such a nice giveaway! I’m glad you’ve gotten your fresh start! I think my favorite item would be the hemp sheet or ironstone, although all of this is wonderful!
No question–the glitter. I have lusted after it since its first mention on your blog.
When I think of you, I think of your ironstone. Although there are so many exciting items in your fun giveaway, I would have to choose the covered ironstone piece as my favorite for this reason. From reading your wonderful blog for so long, I can’t see ironstone without thinking of you. I would cherish this piece not only for its beauty but also as a reminder of you and your lovely work and all I have learned from your blog.
Love it all! But the thing that would make me the happiest from the box is one of your fabulous paintbrushes! What a treat 🙂
I would love to try the paint. I have followed your blog for a long time and would love to try painting an old hutch. It would be nice to see what color looked the best.
I love the covered ironstone dish and the glitter!
well, it would have been some topcoat, but since it isn’t there, I am very interested in how milk paint works. I have never used it and am looking forward to seeing what I can do with a brush, some color and a hempsheet. Eeee gads.
Um list just ONE item? Between them I’ll paint, linen sheet, Bakelite knives, wooden container or book? I can’t decide! Please don’t make me! Seriously been reading you since I saw your tutorial for painted grain sacks. Thank you for being you!
First, I would paint my kitchen cabinets with MMS Milk Paint, probably in French Enamel, using your Parsons West paintbrush to do the job. Then I’d finish them with hemp oil and place the white ironstone tureen on the counter filled with a pot of baby’s tears.
Later, I’d make a coverlet out of that beautiful hemp cloth which I would admire as I eat cherries from the blue and white compote while reading your book! Then I’d go to sleep not worrying about that beautiful antique alarm clock waking me up from my sparkly glass glitter dreams.
And that’s my perfect MMS day all neatly tied up with a blue & white twine bow.
I have a couple of old pieces of furniture I would love to use your paint and techniques. They just have not made it to the top of the To Do List yet. But winning this treasure chest would give them a fast pass to the top :).
I was salivating as I scrolled down. I love all of this. I admit to trying most of your products, but I haven’t usd the bonding agent yet. I would love to try this. I have followed your for almost five years and look forward to reading your posts like a call for a dear friend
Lots of goodies but I would be thrilled with the paint supplies and the hemp sheet. I have so enjoyed your “new” blogging. It definitely shows your interest has been increased. Thanks for the generous giveaway.
Marsha from Texas
Hi Miss Mustard Seed,
What a lovely giveaway! Each item is drool worthy 🙂
The item that I am craving is the milk paint – just not available where I stay! And ofcourse your book! And the brush .. yeah, like I said, each item in the giveaway is great!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Hands down my choice would be the box. But I would make great use of everything!
WOW! What a fantastic giveaway, my favorite item is the ironstone. I adore you and your lovely blog!
That sweet alarm clock! But the rest is really great too.
Love it all, but if I had to pick a favorite it would be the alarm clock!
Wow! My favorite item would be the ironstone compote! Ironstone is rare in the city I live in and that would definitely be a treasure to add to my very small collection! I didn’t know I loved ironstone until I finally found out what it was when I stumbled across your blog.
As a stay-at-home mom of four kids 6 and under/pastor’s wife myself, I can relate to your story and I would love to have your book, too 🙂 God’s grace and peace to you! Love, Ashley
What a great give away, everything is wonderful, but I believe the paint brush and the milk paint would be my favorite.
Enjoy your blog!!!!!thanks
I love them all!! The paint and the covered dish are my favorites!
Everything is so lovely and I scrolled down the list very slowly, with lots of oohs and aahs along the way. But I felt a little tug inside when I saw that beautiful glitter. This will be the first Christmas that I spend away from my son (opposite side of the country, schedules,etc.) and I’m not handling it very well. Quite frankly, I haven’t been able to think about the holidays without getting upset. But I find myself thinking that maybe I could have a little tree and make some ornaments with this beautiful glitter. I will look on your website for retailers. Thanks for such a generous and inspirational giveaway.
How does one pick just one favorite? The glass glitter, the tote, the covered ironstone, the paints? My husband just commented that he didn’t like the color if a dresser I moved into our living room to use as a media cabinet. I agreed and suggested a nice white (it’s a bright red room with lots of dark pieces) he said no, I meant a darker stain. Ha, maybe for the wood too, but that old dresser will be getting some paint!
I would love the blue and white compote. I love everything else too!
Everything looks amazing but my favorite item in the box would be all the milk paint! I hope I win 🙂
So many choices. I’ll go with the paint. My head is already spinning with ideas!
Hi Marian! Thanks for hosting this wonderful giveaway!
I have bought several items from your online shop, most recently a handmade sign that reads “lavande” as I really love your style and consider myself somewhat of a “super fan”. I really love the unique “stamp” that you put on many of your finds as you revive and give second life to your antique treasures. I think that this is an AWESOME giveaway and LOVE the wooden tote and antique compote. I can think of a ton of ways I would use them in my decor and would love to try out the MMS milk paint supplies on some of my recent finds waiting for some TLC. I was waiting for inspiration to strike to begin working on these and think that your giveaway bundle would be just what I need to get going in giving these finds of mine a new life… PLEASE pick me! And thanks again for doing this!
Oh, wow, is this exciting!!! That beautiful compote is my fave but I’d love to have more of your paint as well! And your new brush! And the hemp oil! Thanks for a great giveaway.
The alarm clock makes my heart sing! I can’t believe I love an alarm clock with my love of all things sleep, but there it is! Thank you for the opportunity and I’m glad you’ve refound your passion. 🙂
My favorite thing would be the excitement , creativity and inspiration the box o’ mustard seed would bring to my home. Wishing, hoping, thinking and praying….
My very favorite…would have to be the hemp linen sheet!! But I adore it all. You are so very generous, Marian 🙂
Just looking at all the goodies in the “Miss Mustard Seed in a Box” makes me feeli like a kid on Christmas morning! We just finished an addition to our 1928 house so I have lots of projects underway in getting settled into our new space . It was the “5 year plan,” but 27 years later…and while I am loving every our sorely-needed kitchen renovation, I want to look like it has always been here. Your design ideas are always an inspiration! I would love the hemp sheet to cover cushions on a churchpew, the hemp oil for a bucket -bench that we literally “rescued” (can you say ‘free?’) from my sister-in-laws’s barn and the ironstone for an old white-washed kitchen hutch that at last I have a spot for in my kitchen and would love to fill with ironstone.
Many thanks to your day Kriste for the fun and friendship from afar! 🙂
i like everything *:)
but i want to paint our bedroom set. and probably sprinkle glitter on it. no— my husband would have a fit.
But yes. maybe just a little.
Oh, the glitter…absolutely the glitter! What a lovely gift package!
That’s a tough question since I love all of it. But, if I must choose, it would have to be the ironstone. Thanks for the opportunity!
The knives. Definitely! They bring back sitting on a stool in my great grandma’s kitchen just waiting to spread that homemade rhubarb jam on the fresh baked bread. Priceless memories!
So fun! Everything you have in this box is delightful, any of it would be a pleasure to win! the ironstone and mms paint are a top favorite though, for sure!
Oh my gosh, that compote!!! The milk paint as well, wow, what an amazing giveaway!!! Thank you for all you do, Marian!!
I love them all but especially the blue and white compote!
I love it all. So hard to pick, I think I will go with the alarm clock. I can see a new collection starting
My favorite thing is definitely the blue & white ironstone compote! But, I would love every single thing in the giveaway, especially the antique linen/hemp sheet. Thank you, thank you for mms2.wpengine.com!!
This is an amazing giveaway! I would love to win. It’s my birthday this week so maybe that’ll give me extra luck 😉 my favorite item would the the antique hemp sheets. I’m about to sew a slip cover and would love to try a hemp sheet instead of a drop cloth!
I adore this post! As far as favorites, I’d have to pick the Ironstone and the Hemp Sheet…something about items from the past just gets me…it’s like a firm connection to those who came and lived before us.,
I would love the paint. Can’t wait to try it.
I would love the ironstone dish! But i love everything on the box. So fun!
Oh my goodness, I can’t possibly pick one, everything is so fantastic! This would be like Christmas, my birthday and every other holiday rolled i to one! What a glorious, generous, wonderful giveaway !
Let’s see… the paint brush. As an artist, I know the value of a quality brush. No, the blue and white compote dish. No, the paint because I have a dresser and a book shelf to paint. Wait… the hemp oil would be fabulous on the cupboard I need to refinish…Oh, I really love it all!
Wow! How exciting! I have followed your blog for some time now. I (and my daughter) rent a space in a local antique store and I have often brought in pieces painted with MMS paint (which sell right away!). The owners liked the paint so much that they have just started carrying it (The Red Door in Elk Grove, CA). I would love the clock and the ironstone. How gracious of you!
Ok…so I would love the hemp sheet too (I forgot about that!) … and of course, we could always use more paint and oil (I use the oil on everything!).
Has Christmas come early ??? What a fabulous and generous giveaway ? It’s so hard to choose a favourite – but the tick tick alarm clock is adorable. Love reading your blog – so inspiring x
I’ve been following your blog for a few years now, and am have enjoyed your success. Your series on how you began has touched me, as I too am just starting out. I’m intrigued by the hemp sheet, as I’ve never seen one before. We don’t get these in Aus, and I’d love to win it! Ali x
I want to thank you for this opportunity, to have a chance to win all those great items.I would love the paint the most,as you have inspired me to transform old furniture into something great. Your home and your drive inspires me daily to take basic items and recycle into my decor.
I love everything, but I’m crazy for the blue and white compote. I would think I’d died and gone to heaven if I won the giveaway!
Oh man oh man! That is the greatest favorite thing box giveaway ever! Seriously, I’m drooling over each photo thinking ‘how can I possibly choose 1 favorite?! I truly love it all! I have several paint projects awaiting transformation and I would love milk paint. But honestly, living in Alaska, antiques are MUCH a harder to come by, and so I think the amazing compote and ironstone and clock would be treasures. But seriously LOVE it all! You’re a gift to the world, truly, I’m so thankful for you and your blog! Blessings!!!
What an incredible giveaway! They’re pretty much all of my favor things too! I would love more milk paint and accessories for transformation projects, and the hemp sheet makes me giddy. But I think, living in Alaska, true antiques are so rare, that the ironstone, compote dish and clock would be amazing treasures!!! Thank you for your blog, Marian. You are such an encouragement, daily!
Ahh, sorry, that was not an intential repeat. Please delete on of my duplicate comments. 🙂
I love everything in the box and can’t believe how generous you are, there is a boat load of stuff in this give away!!! If I won, I would go crazy over the European paint samples and use them and the new PW paint brush to paint three small tables that are “ladies in waiting” sitting next in line in my “outdoor” workshop for their beautiful makeovers. I would complete them all with the hemp oil and display them during my holiday celebrations this year!!!
Oh my! It is hard to pick a favorite with all the great stuff in there. I would say right now all the paint supplies would be amazing to work on some projects I have waiting for me! My daughter has been begging me to work on her room!
Ooooooh, all of it would be my favourites but my all time favourite would have to be the lovely blue and white compot and the German glitter. Thanks for the oppotunity of winning such a generous giveaway! You;ve inspired me to make small changes in my house that have had a huge impact and increased my milk paint collection as well.
I NEED the hemp oil for a couple of bamboo chairs I hope to restore but I WANT to play with the paint. The rest would be lagniappe.
Wow, that’s quite a giveaway there! That compote – swoon! – would definitely be my favorite thing in the box.
Oh wow. Just wow. What an amazing prize, literally love everything and I am dying to re-upholster a Queen Anne chair I have with hemp sheet but I just don’t know where to get it here in the UK.
My favourite thing would be the chance to try your MMS milk paint though. We have just bought our first home, an 1870s miner’s cottage in Yorkshire, and are renovating it slowly. Most of our furniture has been sourced from flea markets and on eBay, and it is all in need of some tlc and transforming to fit our rustic, country cottage look. All your shades are beautiful and I am sure would make some of our key pieces look like the beauties I know they can be!
What’s my favorite? Can one say? Of course ALL of your products…after that it would be the ironstone tureen❤️
My favorite item would be the hemp sheet. I’ve been wanting to order some but am not sure if they are what I need. I free sample would be great!
The alarm clock! But the whole package would be such a treat!
You had me at GLITTER GLASS!!! What an awesome giveaway!
I would LOVE to try your paint!! Ooh, and the glitter!! Thank you for the fun chance.
This Christmas begins a new”gift-giving” tradition for our family. Gifts must be hand-made, repurposed or recycled. My favorite item in your box is the hemp sheet. I would use it to stitch monogrammed pillow coverings for my sons, Craig and Eric. The idea for our new tradition came from them, so I would love to be able to begin honoring it with something really special! Thank you! ?
I would love everything ! The ironstone is beautiful . Thanks for the generous giveaway .
I have never wanted to win a giveaway so badly until this one! All the items are my favorite! But to pick one I’d say the paint products thenselves because I want to give it a try. Thanks for hosting such a generous giveaway!
My favorite item is the German glass glitter. I would love to try it out!
Oh my gosh….this is an amazing and extremely generous prize! I adore EVERYTHING in the package and am having a hard time deciding what would be my favorite as it is all so wonderful. If pushed to choose though, I think I might have to say I would love the chance to try the new MMS European colors. The beautiful blue and white compote and covered ironstone dish are pulling on my heart strings as well though. This prize is a true reflection of your beautiful style and incredibly kind and generous nature. It will be a treasure for whichever loyal reader is lucky enough to win. Thank you for offering the contest, but more importantly, thank you for the inspiration you provide!
What an extremely generous gift! I think my favorite thing is the ironstone compote, but the little wooden tote is a close second.
It’s Marian in a box, a treasure box! What a fantastic giveaway. Each item is so you. My favorite would be the paint samples.
I’ve been wanting to try MMS milk paint forever but no one close carries it so I’d have to say my favorite would be the paint….or the ironstone!
This is a fabulous giveaway! I would love to win it! My favorite item in the box is the MMS samples. They are all so beautiful that I would like to try them out and see which ones look the best in my home. BTW, you are amazing-so giving and so talented! You have inspired me to transform my home, one project at a time. I have repainted furniture. Sold off excess items. Even made a slipcover for my sofa-which I never thought I could do. You are deserving of all your successes. Thank you for sharing this lovely giveaway with us.
How very generous of you! I have been following you for years and love everythung you do. The compote is beautiful but all of the items are wonderful.
Blue and white compote!
That is so very sweet of you! I love the wooden tote the best!! I am a simple girl who loves containers! Love your blog!!!
I love it all, but the wooden tote is my favorite!
You are always so generous to share your expertise and now this incredible giveaway-wow! I’m not sure which would be my favorite item-it’s a toss up between the paint and the hemp sheet. Thank you Marian!
My favorite is the hemp sheet. Have wanted to try using one since I first saw them on your blog.
Everthing is so beautiful, I was like I love that oh I love that too. The hemp sheet is my favourite, it has been a dream of mine to own one. Thanks for such a wonderful give away.
What a great giveaway!. Love it all but the if I had to choose, the compote speaks to me.
The antique dishes, and the milk paint would probably be a favorite! Thanks for the chance…
The entire bad is wonderful and so generous! My favourite item would be the antique white and blue compote!
It’s near impossible to pick! The knives are awesome, the paint products would be so much fun but I think the compote would look incredible in my dining room! Thank you Marion. What a beautifully curated give-away.
The ironstone tureen is perfect! I’d love to win!
I would love to try all of the paint! I do LOVE the alarm clock though! So fun!
What a generous package! My favorite might be the hemp sheet. I’ve been wanting to try my hand at covering a piece of furniture. Thank you!
I just love your blog. I have been very very slowly renovating an old farm house. Several years ago I purchaed the rocking horse. He is still wrapped up waiting for his room to be done. Cant wait to send you pictures of him! My favorite item is the ironstone. I would use it for a centerpiece on my hall table. Keep up the great work!
Oh my what a Lovely giveaway, since I have been waiting forever to try this paint
my favorite would be the paints. I have been waiting for cooler weather to finish
out my studio building. And all of my eclectic pieces in there are a miss match of
dark items, I want to paint them all light to make it brighter and cheery in that small
building. Thank you for the chance to win
Brenda
oooo, this is one of the best blog giveaways I’ve ever seen! so many goodies! I would love the MMS milk paint.
Love it all, but have to say the hemp sheet! Beautiful, generous giveaway.
I sew so I would love the hemp sheet. I think I’d make pillows! But am equally excited about the paints and supplies!
Marian, what a lovely giveaway. I love reading your blog and love your style. It is so hard to just choose one as I love your milk paint but I also love the antiques. I think either the blue and white dish or the knives as they remind me of ones my grandmother had.
All are beautiful but the paints….oh the paints….that is a gift that keeps giving…if you teach a man to fish…..
What a generous spirit you have!
Thank you.
I honestly love EVERYTHING in the giveaway, but the sampling of so many of your products would be incredible. I’ve used several of your paint colors but would love to get my hands on a few more so this is just perfect. I’m really enjoying the changes that you’ve made to your blog and have found myself inspired to change things up a bit with my own business. Thank you so much for sharing such a big part of yourself and your home.
What a thoughtful give away. All the items would be amazing but I can think of many projects that I would love to use the hemp sheet for. I enjoy reading your blog. You are very inspiring. Thank you.
I’m not sure I could pick a favorite from that box of fabulous goodies! I would love to try the paint and the ironstone is definitely something to make me smile?. My morning coffee and your blog are my favorite way to start my day. I love everything you do!!
Wow you’re such a kindhearted person for having such a generous giveaway! Everything is nice but my favorite would have to be the paint and supplies. I like smalls but think the furniture makes the biggest statement when redoing a room. 🙂
i love it all, but i think my favorite item would be the paint!!
Wow, what a great box of goodies. So hard to choose one thing I like. I am new to painting with your line. I am hooked on Luckett’s Green, but would love to try some other colors. Whether it’s from the main line or the European line.
I would be beyond thrilled to receive any of these items! I think my favorite item would be the covered dish but I would also love trying your paint & paint brush.
WOW! Love them all! Ironstone is so classic and goes with every thing. But, my favorite thing in that box is hemp oil!!! I can’t live with out it. I use it all the time. When my boys were little, I used restorafinish all the time. Now, hemp oil is my go to. It smells better too!
All items are beautiful but my favorite is the wooden tote. I love all things wood. Thanks for the chance to win “Marian in a box”. I would probably pee my pants if I won.
What a VERY Generous giveaway. I would love to win anything in the box. I would love to try any of your products in your paint line. Thank you so much for the giveaway. I read your blog everyday and love all your inspirations!!! You are a very talented lady..
Wow…your very generous and dazzling give-away is overwhelming! I feel like a kid in a candy shop trying to decide which piece is my favorite. I’m going to choose the Hemp Oil because it seems like magic the way it revives old wood. Thank you, Marian, for such an exciting give-away.
My fav would be the antique hemp sheet — because I’ve never run my fingers over the weave and felt the drape of that beautiful fabric. The pedestal stand runs a close second because it is b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l. Your products would, of course, be the most inspiring and used!
This is a beautiful collection of favourite things! I would love to try your paint! But I love every single thing!! The dishes are lovely. Thank you for all you do. I love your style!!
This is a very generous gift box. I am obsessed with your paint as you may have noticed during my visit to your studio so the paint would be my favourite thing but it is all fantastic. it was great to meet you, my husband and daughter teased me all the way home about how excited I was.
Everything is fabulous! The hemp sheet, and the wooden tote however made me giddy:)
Everything is lovely, but if I had to choose one, it would be the paint brush. I think it’s just the inspiration I need to start painting again:)
Are you kidding? There isn’t anything that I don’t love! What a fabulous gift. If I was forced to pick a favorite it would be the linen.
I love your blog and read every single post admiring your down to earth style and styling as well:~). I have some of your paint and would love to have more, but what catches my eye at first glance is the blue and white compote.
Gracious, Marian, this is such a generous giveaway! I’ve followed your blog for years and have enjoyed seeing your business and confidence grow. Thank YOU for sharing your talent and humor with us. I am just drooling over the compote, but would be ecstatic to receive your gorgeous milk paint, too.
Thanks for the chance!
I can think of so many projects I’d love to do with these goodies but would especially treasure the ironstone because I can’t find it here in Aus
An awesome giveaway, Marion!
Would love to try the paint – but I think the blue and white compote is my favorite, and I’m not usually a “blue” girl.
Oh, how lovely! That is a dream box. My favorite piece is the sweet blue and white antique compote. It would be perfect to hold little soaps in my bathroom. Thank you for all you do to inspire others in their creativity!
My favorite item is the wooden tote. I absolutely love your blog. Typically, I don’t enter giveaways but this one was just too good to pass up.
Oh my! What a generous offer. I so wanted a lidded ironstone dish at Chapel Market, but I had to focus on trying to start the makeover of my card catalog (a freebie!), so I would have to say all the MMS paint products and all else would be like Christmas! Thank you for the opportunity.
The paint, I would be so excited to play with your paint line. I have only ever used my “homemade” chalk paint, and would so enjoy using a “real” product!
Well, they’d all become favorites rather quickly I’m sure, but if I had to choose one, it would be the brush soap. I am a “hobby” painter of oil still life and landscape pictures, and it may seem a little OCD, but I enjoy the time at the end of each session when I clean my palette and wash my brushes. I like taking care of things, and have some old, cherished favorites among my tools. I love the smell of the various cleansers I’ve used over the years and the feel of the brushes after I’ve conditioned them, ready for the next time out. Whether the painting went well, or not, that time of cleaning up feels like good stewardship and reflective and somehow hopeful.
What an extremely generous giveaway! I have already tried the paints and love them so my favorite would have to be the samples of the European colors.
Thanks!
It’s been really interesting reading your business story. I’ve been contemplating trying milk paint as I have a couple of rocking chairs that need refinishing. One of these days I’ll dive in, so obviously that would be my favorite thing in the box, but the blue and white compote is next on the list. 🙂
Everything in that box is awesome and I’m an avid ironstone collector, however, that alarm clock is FABULOUS! Oh the stories it could tell….
I would love it all, but my favorite is probably the covered ironstone. I’ve never tried your paint and would love to since those are all colors that I love and I love the look of it. Thanks for the chance to win such a generous gift!
I have two favorite items – the compote dish and the milk paint. I have a bookshelf that’s ready for my attention now that the weather has cooled off. I’m planning to paint the outside of it Ironstone and the inside back French blue. Can’t wait! Fingers crossed!
Thanks for writing such an inspiring blog!
what a generous giveaway. Milk paint would be my favorite but it’s all wonderful!
The blue and white compote of course!
Wow! What a generous giveaway! Thankful for the opportunity to win. SO enjoy your blog and Inspired You. You are encouraging me to be brave in making my home mine (ours) for the first time in 27 years.
The sweet alarm clock, though the glitter glass will always make me nostolgic. I started following your blog because of all those glitter projects.
I have been wanting to try some of your milk paint for awhile now! Sooooo, milk paint!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, this is really tough! What’s not to love in this giveaway?! I am a huge ironstone fan and would love to try your paints/accessories, but I think I’d most cherish your book. There’s nothing like a good book!
What a lovely assortment!! Very hard to choose a favorite but I’d have to pick the glitter glass. After seeing your post about how to turn old bottles into sweet, glittery vases I’ve been on a mission to find just the right collection and try it for myself!!
If I had to pick just one item from all of these amazing things it would be the Parsons West brush! I’ve been wanting to try it out!!
Hi, it’s all very nice! The antique blue and white compote made my heart flutter. Thank you Miss Mustard Seed you are the best!
What an amazing giveaway. i would love everything in the box. My favorite would be the blue and white compote. i love your paint and have painted so many things with it. i read your blog everyday and just love you. Thanks for the giveaway, have a great day!
What a great contest! My favourite is either the ironstone or the paint, but what a tough choice!
I would love the paint!
Ms Parsons, you are the one who inspired me to make my own slip overs, paint garage sale furniture with samples of latex paint and shop thrift stores for ironstone dishware. I even sold a few pieces and turned a profit !! You have educated me, helped my artistic personality to surface again and gave me confidence when I had very little. For all of this, I thank you.
I know I would be truly blessed if I were to be the lucky recipient of your generous gift.
Annie
I would love all of it, but trying out the paint would be the most exciting!
So hard to choose as it would be like Christmas in October to win your amazing box gift. If I had to choose, I would say the Ironstone, but I’d be tickled pink to have the hemp sheet…but then again I’d LOVE to have some of your paint!!! Ugh…I simply can’t make up my mind!!! I would cherish it all.
Oh be still my heart ! That is a fabulous collection and I would LOVE it all. I have been wanting to try your products and haven’t taken the plunge because I can’t decide what to try/buy first and winning this would solve that huge dilemma in my life. If I could win the gift box it might save me years of therapy about which color of MMS paint I should try first or if I should glitter and hemp oil something in my home…….hoping it is my lucky day and I could be so fortunate to win the dream box with everything from your line that one could imagine. (PS That ironstone pedestal has been calling me for months on your posts). xoxoxoxo
Wow! it is all so amazing! My favorite is a tie between the Parsons West paint brush and the beautiful blue and white compote!
Love reading your blog…it is always full of inspiration!
Sarah
Although I’d love all the items, my most treasured would be the compote and the hemp sheet. My mother collected blue and whites. I have a few of hers to go with it. You’ve also inspired me to try my hand at making a slip cover for a wingback chair. My mom also taught me from an early age to sew. Thanks for the chance at some lovely items!
I cannot choose just one!! Seriously! I think that you have truly pieced together your brand in a box so well. And I visit here almost daily for inspiration because I love all of it! All. So well done Marian. If I must choose one, I choose the MMS in a box. ?? Does that count? Am I fired?
I don’t know where to begin! The paint might get me off the couch looking at blogs and Pinterest and actually start doing something! I also love the footed compote so lovely.
I would love to play with the paint but I’d also love all the other treasures too!
Oh my!! What a lovely Miss Mustard Seed in a box!! Truly a generous gift! My favorite would have to be the hemp sheet! I’ve never had one of those before!! Blessings!
Would it be fair to say…… all of it! I’m really curious about the wax puck and the hemp oil. My son’s family just moved from Georgia to Lansdale, PA. I’m hoping to attend one of your workshops in the future. Really enjoy your blog…..it’s a daily read must for me.
How in the world could I pick a single favorite?!? The twine, hemp oil & I love painting, it just does something to ease my soul, so paint and paintbrush maybe.
Then again I haven’t allowed myself to splurge on hemp sheets yet so that possibly.
But above all when I see the photo I’m drawn to that lovely warm wood box. Boxes are my thang:)
Wowsa! Love it all, but am particularly drawn to the blue and white compote.
I love the milk paint & the distressing wax puck! Also your book! I’m sure it’s filled with awesome advice!
I love all of the things in the box and it’s hard to choose just one thing! If I have to choose, it would have to be the paint. Thanks for the chance to win!
Oh My, what a generous giveaway! I absolutely love it all! My favorite would be your book INSPIRED YOU.
Such a lovely giveaway! I can’t stop looking at the blue and white dish.
I remember that give away. How fun of you to do it again. Every item in there is great! I think I would choose the Sheet. I love to sew!
I would love all of it, but I really would love to try the paint with the hemp oil. Thanks for this great giveaway!
The patina on those knives stole my heart – those are already my favorites.
My favorite would be the blue and white compote. But wowza! Everything in that mustard seed box is amazing!!
Wow! What a terrific prize!!!! It’s really hard to say what my favorite would be – the paint, the hemp sheet, the glitter, the ironstone, the cute little clock. I’m going to say the samples of the European color line because I find those so exciting and full of potential. Thanks so much for putting this package together for some awesome daydreaming ops!!! 🙂
Not sure if my comment went through before….My favorite would definitely be the paint! I put off a lot of projects when my son was born out of safety concerns. We also have friends with latex/chemical allergies, so I think this paint is just what I need to get back to creating regularly! All the other items sound wonderful, too! Getting this box would be like the best Christmas present!
Love,love,love this give away. Really hard to pick a favorite because I love all the items. Since I have to choose, will go with the paints and brush.
Thank you for such a wonderful opportunity to win such a fabulous gift! Love your blog
I’d have to say my favorite item would be the blue & white antique dish! Love it! Great giveaway, I hope I win 🙂
Oh my….how to choose….but that hemp sheet has my name written all over it. Thanks for the chance!
Your giveaway is incredible. I especially love the compote and the covered ironstone dish. Reminicent of dining with family at the home of my great grandmother. Thank you for your awe inspiring blog!
I love the blue and white compote! The pattern is so delicate. And I can already think of a ton of ways to use the wood tray.
I think it is impossible to pick just one item. i love using your paint and all the items that give such a variety of finishes. Hemp oil makes my wood look fabulous. but i also love antique items. I have been intrigued by your glass glitter, and haven’t done anything with it yet…so maybe that could be my favorite item. Dying to try it.
ALL of that in ONE box? My-oh-my!
I would love the paint….would paint anything that doesn’t move!!!
Oh my gosh, Marion, what a generous giveaway – my jaw dropped as I scrolled and scrolled some more only to find one treasure after another! What a truly perfect representation of all things Miss Mustard Seed! It is so difficult to choose a favorite because I love it all, but I keep going back to that sweet little blue and white compote. I enjoy your blog so much – for years it has been the first thing I look at every morning before I start my day. Thank you for sharing your talents with all of us!
So tough to pick a favorite!!! Would love it all!! The blue and white compote would be perfect in my master bath…but I would also love the hemp sheet to sew some home items!!! As a bonus, I would love to come to the Studio to pick it all up- I am only a short drive away in Lancaster…
Thank you so much for this amazing giveaway! How do you pick a favorite? They are all so amazing. If I had to pick just one it would be the ironstone. My mom and I are huge collectors of ironstone and I have a love of tureen and covered dishes….especially mini ones. Your paint is amazing too. Thank you again…Have a great week. Monica Tillman in Baltimore.
I love the blue and white compote! After all you can’t go wrong with blue and white. I would love to try the paint as well.
I love working with the milk paints to refinish garbage finds, but I’ve been wanting to get my hands on some of that wax! Then again, ironstone just makes my heart sing. And I have a soft spot for wood boxes. I’m going with the wax. I already know what I’ll do with it!
It all looks great, but I think my favorite is the sheet since I’m interested in what it is like.
I don’t think I could pick a favorite! It would be either the paint, or the ironstone dish. I love it all!
If I *had* to choose…that ironstone covered dish!
Such a nice giveaway. I think the ironstone would be my favorite!
The entire box looks like it would be such a lovely jumpstart for anyone. I especially love the sheet and the tool caddy.
Fingers crossed!
Oh wow!!! What an awesome giveaway. I would love ? The milk paint. I have not yet tried it. I love the look
The alarm clock!!!
Yes, it would have to be the paint although it all looks inviting!
My favorite part of the give-away would be the milk paint!! I have several antique pieces that I want to refinish and would love to try milk paint as a new venture in furniture finishes!!!
Good luck to everyone who enters!!
Wow! All of these items are original and so cute, but my favorite is honestly the paint. I have been dying to try out the milk paint! I’ve tried chalk paint, and love it, but the texture and look of this milk paint is amazing.
So cool of you to do a giveaway like this again!
It’s really hard to choose my favorite with so many wonderful items in this give-away. Thank you so much for your generosity. I love the ironstone and the hemp sheet but if I won, everything would be used. Thank you again!
Oh, my!!! How do I even choose my favorite thing?!? I’d probably have to go with the milk painting supplies! I’ve wanted to try it for awhile, but then we moved & sold all the furniture I was hoping to “re-do”. 😉 This would inspire me to find some more furniture & try again! Everything in the box is beautiful! I’ve actually been looking for an antique alarm clock! Thank you!!! 🙂
Wow such a generous gift. I love it all, but if I had to pick a favorite I would choose the paint. I love the way paint can transform ugly into beautiful. There is just great satisfaction in painting? Thank you.
Such delicious goodies! It’s hard to choose a favorite, but maybe the paint or cutlery with bakelite handles. Thanks for hosting this lovely giveaway!
Man oh man! How can I possibly choose just one? The paint brush is stunning, and the book would have to come in even on the top! They would have to be my two favourite things 🙂
I like everything here! If I had to pick though, it would be the paint because I have never tried milk paint before.
Honestly, I love all the items in the box, they’re all so beautiful. I have never used your paint and would love to try it out! Thanks, Sarah
I think it would have to be the compote…It would be the key base piece to achieving some of your gorgeously styled looks. It is beautiful. Everything else takes a close second, especially the hemp linen sheet. The book. Where would I start? I began using your paints & reading your blog, 8 months months ago and I have been so inspired ever since. So, yeah, really all of it, and even just the idea of it!
What a generous giveaway! It is very hard to choose one item. I love the wood box, the blue and white compote, it would be my first piece of ironstone!!!!!, the alarm clock…. so many things resonate with me. This might seem unusual but I’m going to go with the paint brush! You can have quality paint, quality item to be painted and even painting talent but a good quality brush makes all the difference!! Thanks for your blog, it encourages me and I’m sure others to not feel like we have to have a decorating degree but rather let what we love and that gut instinct guide us in making our homes fun and relaxing, while expressing ourselves. May God bless you and your family and may He continue to guide your business!!
Oh my goodness, what an awesome giveaway!!! I’m in love with ironstone, that would be my favorite thing, but there are so many wonderful items I would be thrilled to have! Fingers crossed!
Hard to choose! I could see every one of those items going in my home perfectly. If I won, my favorite item would probably be the brush since I know I would be using it all of the time! I have been wanting to try the milk paint so I’m sure that would also end up being a favorite.
I love it all!! If have to go with the clock and paint. Such great options!
If I had to pick, I would say the milk paint I have wanted to try out your paint for awhile now and I have a couple projects.
Oh my goodness! How to choose just one favorite item from the awesome box of goodies!? I’d have to say the paint (and the brush and the hemp oil and the antique sheet and the samples and the wooden tote…) hahaha! Thanks for the chance to win it all! You’re so thoughtful. XO
Love all of it….but excited for all the paint supplies!
Gosh so many great items it is hard to pick! I love it all, but collect ironstone. I love the blue and white piece too so either the blue and white or ironstone. Thank you so much, I enjoy your blog and giveaways are so nice!
All of the items sound wonderful but I would most welcome the paint. I have been wanting to try your paint for quite some time. I have some well worn furniture (and a whole house) that needs some freshening up here. We’ve lived here for 14 years and 7 children later, I need a change!!
I would love anything milk paint! I love your milk paints!!
I love everything! But since I need to name just one favorite, it would be the wooden box. I have a love affair with them, I can’t help myself. I hope I win. Who doesn’t need a little gift from someone every once in awhile? Blessings.❤️
This is one of the best giveaways I’ve ever seen! My favorite item is the set of bakelite knives…I’ve wanted some ever since I’ve seen how you display yours so beautifully!
Those knives. Oh muh gosh. Ready to put them to good use on some scratch biscuits and cranberry relish!
Wow ! This is amazing ! I love each one of these ! I must say I would be most excited about the milk paint! We just bought a “new” old house this past year and have so many ideas for it!
Oh My…..favorite….mmmmmm, let me see….The hemp oil!
Oh my! To pick one thing that is my favorite is hard! I would have to say the vintage sheet- I am smitten by vintage linens and quilts- but I would love to try your milk paint!!
All of it would be fabulous!!! Thank you ??
What a fun give away! I would love to receive a box like this but I would be most excited about the paint and hemp oil. Thank you!
So excited, I would say the milk paint. I have wanted to brave refinishing my cabinets with milk paint but have been a little fearful to do so. The beautiful Ironstone would be amazing as well.
Thank you for this chance.
My #1 item in the box would be the milk paint! There’s nothing that excites me more than starting a new project, and I’ve been eager to try the paint for some time now… I hope I win!! 😉
Thanks for being my favorite blog to follow!!
-Lacey
Still haven’t tried your paints, so would love to receive those! Also love the vintage goodies, alarm clock and wooden tote… I love it all! Glass glitter… Etc and etc 🙂
It’s hard to choose just one…but I’d choose the milk paint! I was recently introduced to your milk paint…and fell in love! I became a stay at home mom almost a year ago and decided to paint and sell furniture to help with bills. Free paint would definitely help!!
This is the most generous giveaway I have seen in quite awhile. All of the pieces in the giveaway are breath taking and I would love to have any one of them. I’m most interested in your milk paint and all of the things that go along with it, like the brush and wax and oil. I follow you in IG and love seeing what the painted furniture looks like on your feed. I would like the chance to make some of my furniture look like that! Thank you again for your generous giveaway and the chance to be included!

What a generous heart you have! And what a beautiful “fantabulous” giveaway! So hard to pick just one favorite – I love every single item – but I have been itching to try your paint brush!
Thank you, Marian, for your generous spirit – not just in this giveaway but in all you share with all of us. Your faith and your fortitude shows us how to “move those mountains”…thank you!
Oh, my favorite is the MMS Milk Paint! But I also love the antique hemp sheet! And the glitter! And everything! 🙂
This is such a beautiful collection of goodies! The MMS paint would be my favorite! I have tried three colors, but have so many projects I can’t wait to start with the right color!
This is an amazing contest!! I would love the paint.
Hi! My favorite would be, undoubtedly, the paint! I use it almost daily and absolutely love everything about it! All of the items are really fabulous though!!! Thank you for the giveaway!
~The Vintage Songbird
Oh how amazing!
I would love a chance to get to work with the paint. I am working on a nursery for our first baby girl coming in February and I have a lot of projects! I would love the book to!!
My favorite item would be your book. I own one and have bought two others that I have given as gifts. I would love to make a gift of this book too. The other items are fantastic and would rip open the box when it arrived. However, I love introducing others to your book, blog, style and how easy it can be to make something of their own. Especially recreating a piece of furniture in their home.
Hi, Marian! It is so hard to choose which of the items you so thoughtfully put together would be my favorite! It could be the hemp sheet because I love fabrics. It could be the compote because I have collected cake stands and compotes for over 20 years. But I have, in the last few years, started collecting ironstone and that little plump covered dish is adorable. I love books and painting… I think my favorite thing is the generosity you have shown in sharing your favorite things with us. (Oh, did I mention that I have collected boxes, mostly wood ones, almost my entire life ? 🙂 ) it would be Christmas and birthday rolled into one to receive this! Fingers crossed!
Wow! I love everything, what a generous gift! Thank you! I would be most excited about the paint as I have been wanting to try it.
My favorite is the blue and white dish. Well and the paint! Thanks for the chance!?
So thankful to be able to enter from Canada! I would love to try the bottle of Hemp Oil!
I changed my mind. The hemp sheets hands down are my fav. I have a chair that is in dire need of a makeover!
I’m torn! The hemp sheet and the ironstone pieces are calling my name!!! Okay, okay, I’ll pick one! The covered ironstone dish!!!
Hola Moses, what a n amazing give away! Too many scrumptious items to choose from. But the paints and the hemp sheet. I have a couple of projects that I could finish if I had this items at my disposal. Of course all the other goodies would be like Christmas in October and who doesn’t love that?
One favorite? Only one? In that gift box there are too many favorites! The paints, finishers and brush are hours of pure bliss painting a piece into visual perfection! My imagination runs wild with fantastic options for that hemp sheeting. The ironstone and blue and white pedestal dish are amazing. Books for down time stored in that beautiful wooden caddy. Knives and alarm clock are eye candy and icing on the cake! It’s impossible to pick one item in this fabulous gift box! Thank you for taking your time in putting this together. I follow an array of blogs and yours is always so insightful and fun to read. Never stop growing and being grateful, your a breath of fresh air with your insights.
My favorite item would be all of the milk paint! My husband and I create “antique” signs with the paint and have yet to try all of the colors. We also love using it on old pieces of furniture in our home. This is by far our most favorite paint ever! Thanks for creating such a fantastic product.
I’m torn!!! The hemp sheet and the ironstone are calling my name! Okay, okay, I’ll choose one-the covered ironstone dish!!!
Oh I LOVE the white ironstone dish!! What a FABULOUS giveaway!!!
I love it all…but the blue and white compote is my favorite!
I love to go back and read old post from my favorite bloggers. It’s fun to see where we have all come and what we have gained in friendships. We have all grown in so many ways. Not just in friendship numbers but in so many other valuable ways. Your blog was one of my first reads and my favorites then and now. I feel so blessed and honored to get to chat with you every year at the market. Sad it’s never long enough. My favorite thing in your box would be your books. I know how much you have put your heart and soul into them. Every year I plan to pick them up and always get sidetracked. Keep being you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Everything in the box is amazing!! We use your paint for all of our projects. Haven’t come across a color we didn’t like 🙂
Xo,
Ashley
Gosh, picking just one?! Seriously! Glitter glass. Just because I have never used it and I am a crafter and the holidays are just around the corner.
Blue and white compote! Beautiful! This is the mother load!!!!!
The hemp oil might be my fav. But seriously, who could choose just one?
It’s hard to pick only one favorite! I’m thinking it might be the paint though! Thanks for the giveaway! You have some amazing things in that box!
I particularly love the antique wooden tote! Plus it carries some of the other generous giveaway items so beautifully.
This giveaway is dreamy! I’ve been dying to try your milk paint, but too afraid to go for it. This would give me the push I need. And I can’t even talk about the darling clock!
Wow how to choose just one item?!? I love the blue and white compote – I’m in the process of redecorating my living/dining room, and the compote would look perfect as a centerpiece base on the table! You’re blog has really inspired my redecorating journey – thank you so much!
Everything is so amazing, but I think my most favorite is that little silver clock! Love ?
What a lovely and generous giveaway. I love it all, but as I too have a soft spot for blue and white, I think the compote is my favorite. Thank you for the daily inspiration!
How lovely – truly. I enjoy your posts each day, and look forward to what little tidbits I will learn. In this generous giveaway I would look forward to your small paint packet samples, trying new colours is always inspiring in some way or another. So many great treasures in there!
What an amazing giveaway! The three quarts of paint, the adorable alarm clock and the hemp oil are my favorites!
OH MY GOSH, I literally do not think I have just 1 favorite. I absolutely LOVE every single item! If I won, I would be the happiest girl on the planet!
thank you for being such an inspiration in all that you do!

My favorite item in the box – the white ironstone covered dish! How cute! I’d love the milk paint and bonding agent too – I have a large golden oak china hutch I’d love to paint a soft white.
I tackled my first-ever MMS Milk Paint project last weekend- my kitchen cabinets! They came out INCREDIBLY! Exactly what I wanted them to look like! I mixed your “Marzipan” color with your “Ironstone” color and it came out as a soft cream with very slightly pink/almond undertones that is so warm and gorgeous! The paint was a dream to work with, so nice to apply. I told my husband, “well I think I’m going to become someone who buys old furniture and re paints it with milk paint! Cause I love it!” I am a fan, and have been telling all of my friends. Thank you for the opportunity to win some more milk paint, how generous of you. I would love to get some supplies to start me out, like the bonding agent or wax or even the color samples. I would also LOVE that covered ironstone dish! I’ve just started my iron stone collection 😉 thank you again for creating a beautiful product that is easy to work with and healthy for the home and environment. ~Calla Lauren
Beautiful! This is the mother load! I love the blue and white compote ?
Aaah!!! I have never won a giveaway but this one is just amazing! I think my favorite would have to be the compote….no, the ironstone. Or the Look Book. But all the wonderful projects I could complete with all that paint…and that brush. And everything else. Ok, I’m done.
I love the alarm clock and would love to try out your new brush. What a great box all around!
Wow! Wow! Wow! Oh my goodness, choosing just one item is so hard. I really like everything but I think the blue and white compote speaks to me the most. She is just stunning!
What a fun giveaway! My favorite item in the box would be the covered ironstone dish. It would be my first piece. I love the milk paint. My favorite color so far is the combination of Lucketts green with Flow blue.
Love it all!! But my fav would probably be the paint! I love bringing new life to old and new pieces. I am a beginner and I love all your inspirational work!!!
My favorite item is the paint, of course, but I love the sheet too. It would be perfect to make into a beds kit for my daughters bed, or pillows for my bed 😉
I am so inspired by your work and I too am a lover of all things old. The clock is amazing as well as the sheet and everything else! The ironstone dish would be a great addition to my collection though and I could brag that I won it from you!
What an awesome give-away! The glitter is so beautiful! Thanks for the chance!
What an amazing giveaway! I think my favorite item would be the paint. I’m not sure how in the world I haven’t yet but would love to. Thanks for the opportunity!!
It’s all fantastic but I think the Hemp Oil is what I would be most excited about. I think I would go around my house oiling everything that sits still…the Ironstone dish is pretty amazing too!
FAVORITE thing? Are you kidding? Every single thing in this giveaway is awesome but I have to say the blue & white compote is pretty sweet, and all the milk paint, of course, is wonderful. I am not a fan of chalk paint, at all, but I do love me some MMS milk paint! I’ve used Typewriter, Flow Blue, French Enamel, Boxwood and Apron Strings, the clear and white waxes, and hemp oil … and loved them all, but I have other projects I would really like to try some of the other colors on, especially the white-ish or gray-ish shades.
Pick me! Pick me…pleeeeease!
P.S. I’ve never, EVER won anything in my whole life. 🙁 Winning this generous giveaway would certainly make up for all those past disappointments. 😉
What a beautiful gift of all things miss mustard seed! I think my favorite thing would be trying out your paints. Thank you!
My favorite? Whoa…that’s a hard one! All of it! But, since you want to know – I would say your European Milk Paint collection. I have been meaning to try them , so I would appreciate that the most! What a great giveaway! Linda
Wow! What a super giveaway! I love it all but would be so excited to get the compote dish and the paint samples. So love your work and the motivation you give to me! Thanks!
It’s all awesome, but the compote dish gave me an extra determination to enter! Well, maybe that and the glass glitter and the alarm clock and the paint and the box and….
I’m having a difficult time choosing a favorite item! I love your milk paint. I have a piece in my kitchen that’s done in Artissimo and love it, and I’ve been wanting to paint something ( anything) in Boxwood. But I think the blue and white compote is the favorite winner for me.
I LOVE the little clock! And your paint is wonderful – me and Delaney love you!
How to choose a favorite? As I scrolled down I kept saying to myself “Oh, the compot. No, the clock, ooh, the knives.” But my heart says covered ironstone. ♡ Thank you for the beautiful inspiration!
Free milk paint!!!! Oh, and that alarm clock is pretty cute too ;).
OMG! I would love it all….But to pick I would say the milk paint (because I am a paint JUNKIE) or the compote…but I am dying to have the hemp sheet, as well….and I do love ironstone….there are no wrong answers..lol!
Your milk paint is definitely the MVP of this giveaway. It’s unpredictability is what I love so much about it. I recently purchased a desk for my mother’s office – she’s an architect and loves pieces with character and age – and we know it’s destined to be Mora. Crazy as I may sound, I can tell that’s what it wants to be! & I have to say, after hearing how much you and Kristie (hi Kristie – I’m a fan of you too sweet girl) love the hemp oil, I’m excited to try it on an old cutting board of my grandmother’s. I know it will bring it back to life! It’s all truly lovely. You’re far too generous.
Lots of love from Nashville!
Oh, that amazing hemp sheet! I love it all!!
~Michelle~
I do’nt think my comment posted and I really want to win this beautiful prize!
I absolutely love everything in this giveaway! I have really wanted to try your milk Paint so that would be exciting. But how about the ironstone? and the hemp sheet ? and the compote…. It is all so wonderful!
Thank you for the opportunity! karen….
What an amazing giveaway!! My favorite is the ironstone.
I love everything in the box and it’s hard to choose just one thing! If I have to choose, it would have to be covered ironstone. I have one that was my grandmother’s and I would love another.
Dear Miss Mustard Seed,
My favorite is the wooden tote! To receive a giveaway like this would be a dream come true.
Thank you for offering this giveaway! My husband and I are slowly renovating our 100 year old house on an extremely tight budget. I cannot tell you how many times we have been inspired by your home. We have the same butcher block counter tops and bathroom tiles, just to name a couple examples. I absolutely love your style! Thank you so much for everything you and your blog have given me. I cannot wait to share pictures of our finished home with you…some day.
I would love the blue n white cake plate..i recently found my Omas recipes fr Germany and have been baking up a storm…
I’d love to try the new colors. Thanks
Good Morning,
Wow, this would be the perfect Christmas gift!
Personally, it would be hard to choose a favorite. I quess I would have to go with the hemp sheet. But, then the paint would be awesome too! You have inspired me to slipcover and paint my chairs. Thank you for so generously putting your tutorials out there for everyone to see.
Warm Regards,
Holly
It is all lovely, but I’m smitten with the paint.
Oh, Missy, you’ve outdone yourself with this amazing giveaway! I love it all. I use and love your milk paint on my projects, I collect ironstone and transfer ware, I sew….I adore the entire package. I think my most favorite at the moment would be your new European line of paint! You always inspire me. ?
Ooooo the paint!
I would love to win this MMS in a box! My favorite item would be the hemp bed sheet so I could make a slip cover out of it! ?
It is all lovely, but I am smitten with paint.
What a wonderful give away. Everything would be a special treat to receive, but the Parson West paintbrush would be my favorite. Those brushes are priceless!
My favorite is the blue and white compote! Beautiful!!
ahhh!!!
The magical hemp oil!
I want to thank you also for posting everyday (minus Sunday) I count on it and thrive on it! 😀
Oh I would love the little blue and white compote- Such versitility. perfect for a couple biscuits , warm from the oven, smothered with blackberry jam. or my collection of tiny hand blown Christmas ornaments from my great grandparents tree. Or on my marble topped vanity with bars of handmade soap from my favorite soap maker.
It would forever remind me that I’d won a very treasured giveaway .
Wow this is really hard as I love everything you are offering. I love the paint but my favorite is the tote as I collect them. Thanks for the opportunity to win. I hope I do
Ah this is incredible!! Of course I want the milk paint, but I LOVE the hemp sheet and have the exact thing I need to cover!
I would love to get my hands on one of those hemp sheets! I also love the blue and white compote. Blue and white are my favorite colors. Hope I win!!!!!!!!
This is such a nice offer for someone who loves all of your favorite things! I am eager to try your hemp oil on some old furniture and love blue. I have wanted some ironstone since finding your blog. Picking one thing from this collection is difficult. My favorite item if I won would be the adorable alarm clock as I would want to give it to my daughter who has just started her first year at college and loves old clocks.
I would love to try out the European line of milk paint! What a generous giveaway!
Oh my gosh! Everything is my favorite!! I would be so so excited for the milk paint, though. I have a few pieces of furniture that are in need of some love and I’ve been dying to try milk paint on them! Plus that blue and white compote. Ahh it’s all perfection! Thank you so much for offering this!
it all looks so good, but we have to choose, it would be the glitter for me!
What a fantastic givaway! I remember drooling over this giveaway last time excited to be able to enter this time! if I were to win, i would be so excited to win the MMS paint.. I cannot wait to give it a try!! Can I choose the clock too?? Thank you Marion!
Jordan
I love that alarm clock! Thank you!
What a fabulous giveaway! I would love everything in this box, but I’d most enjoy the paint as I’m having so much fun transforming different items with it.
So hard to choose. While I’m particularly drawn to the ironstone dish, I can see myself getting lost in the inspirations in your book. The entire package would bring me hours of exquisite pleasure.
I don’t know how to pick a favorite! I just kept going through the list in disbelief at all of the beautiful things you are giving away! I am dying to have it all but I can’t stop looking at that alarm clock! Love it!
WOW, Miriam!! Such a generous thank you box!!
I just wanted to extend my gratitude for your work. I always enjoy reading about your projects and how you balance being a creative business owner, teacher, product developer, and restorer with your family life. Reading your blog feels as if you give many of us a voice.
Thank you for inspiring us all!
Stephanie
Thank you so much for doing a “Miss Mustard Seed in a box” giveaway…. That alarm clock is amazing!
Yikes! I have to pick one. Impossible! It would have to be the paint and supplies. When I have a paint brush in my hand, it is like I’m in another world. As good as being at a relaxing spa!
I’m pretty sure my favorite thing would be knowing where it came from. Really hope to meet you “live and in person” one day… Hey, maybe if I win 8’ll come there to pick it up!!! ?
Just started collecting ironstone…love it! But really love it all!!
I love the compote and bakelite knives. What an amazing group of goodies!
Oh my goodness, what a dreamy assortment of goodies. Hard to pick a fave but because I’ve been wanting to try your products and haven’t yet, I’d have to say the paint. : )
My favorite item would be the clock. It’s a reminder to me that time is precious. We are experiencing an empty nest here at our house with our boys now at college and another moved away in the Air Force with his own family. The other items in the box would give me something to do to take my mind off of missing them. Thanks Miss Mustard Seed!
So hard to pick one favorite! I love them all! I guess I will say the knives are really spectacular. ?
Wow! That is an incredible giveaway! My favorite item? I have to choose just one?!? Ummm… The paint in my choice of color. No wait, the wooden box. No- the alarm clock! Ok fine, the paint.
WOW, Miriam!! Such a generous thank you box!! I would love the milk paint? Thank you for inspiring us all!
Stephanie
It’s all lovely, but my heart fluttered when I scrolled down and saw the old alarm clock. I have one, and it’s one of my favorite pieces in the house. I think I should start a collection with this clock being the second one..plus Friday is my birthday!
My favorite thing would be the miss mustard seed paint! I’ve always wanted to try it and never made the leap. Also it would be a tie to have my own piece of ironstone picked out by yours truly! !!!
What an amazing giveaway! What could be better than having you come to my house? Well, packaging you up in a box of course , or maybe adding a pinch or two of your energy to your giveaway.
That MMS Milk Paint is calling my name, but my favorites are the two books. Your blog was one of the first blogs I ever read. You inspired me me in so many ways , from painting my china cabinet a French blue, slip covering dining chairs for all my friends, sheet music crafts, introducing me to glass glitter, and ironstone. Yep, I would just love to have those books.
I love everything. The painting supplies would be my favorite.
I love it all, but especially the blue and white compote! Thanks for all of your ideas and inspiration!
I just love it all! Hard to pick just just one….. Maybe the clock or or your paint products. You are such an inspiration to me and so look forward to your posts!!! What abeautiful daughter of God. Thank you!
Oh wow! What a grand giveaway! It is very hard to choose just one favorite. I’m going to say the paint, though! I have a table (and a few other pieces) painted in Ironstone and it needs touching up. I’ve been saying for months, “I really need to get more paint”. I just haven’t been able to. So more paint would be awesome! Thanks!
You ARE a sweetheart ♥ I think that`s what matters today most… And it`s really impossible to choose one out of the beauties. The clock, the blue/white compote, your book or the ironstone dish??? I think I like the wooden tote because I`m looking for months for such a nice one and I can`t find it here in middle Europe…
Enjoy your days ♥
Alexandra
The whole package is lovely, but I’m loving the MMS milk paint the most!
Anything & everything miss mustard seed!
Thanks for this chance to have a little part of MMS!!! All the items are so fabulous, but my favorite is the antique hemp sheet! I have a an old settee that has been waiting for a makeover! ?
I cannot possibly choose just one thing!!!! Top runners are the milk paint (I love that stuff!!), the pretty blue and white cake stand/compote thing (LOVE), and the ironstone. But ALL of it makes my heart go pitter patter.
I adore that clock. I have been looking for an antique clock to put on the shelf in our half bathroom that we just gutted and remodeled. It took my husband and I six months to complete the bathroom, but we finally have it put back together. All that’s left to do is put some finishing touches on it with some accessories. That clock would be perfect!
Probably the paint as I have a giant list of things I need to redo, but I’m decorating a new home and the compote and ironstone will have important places to go ?
I have to pick one??? The hemp sheet for sure! But then there is the paint, the paint accessories, the IRONSTONE! I want it all!!!
Wow, such a generous giveaway! What a treat! I would love everything single thing in the box. I have been itching to try your paint though.
I would be tickled with any of it, but I would say getting the milk paint would be my favorite. I adore this stuff. It’s almost like a surprise everytime because each piece takes differently and I LOVE how it brings my pieces back to life!!
I would like everything, but I love blue and white dishes. Thanks for the inspirations you provide.
I love it all! But I would be especially excited about the paint and paintbrush!
Such a nice giveaway! My favorite would probably be the hemp sheet or the blue and white compote. It’s all so wonderful, though!
What an amazing opportunity to win such a wonderful assortment of MMS! The hemp sheet would be so special to sew with, but I would love the chance to work with all of your painting supplies!
Thanks for the chance!
What a great, generous giveaway! It is so hard to pick but I would love the antique hemp sheet as I have been inspired by what you have done with the sheets and I want to give it a go! thank you!
Es tan dificil elegir sólo uno…..todo me encanta pero elegiría su libro.gracias por el sorteo.Es fabuloso
My wife says I would like the ironstone the best.
There are so many, it is hard to say, but I love dishes, so the blue and white compote would be my first and then the ironstone. Great giveaway!
Hi Marian, I’ve Benin following your blog for maybe a couple a years but never commented before.
Your blog and your style is one of my favorites. I love everything in the Miss Mustard seed box, but I chose the antique blue and white compote, so cute an beautiful with flowers that are one of my passions. Thank you and many blessings, Blanca.
Everything is awesome it’s so hard to pick a favorite! But probably the paint because I’ve wanted to try it for so long!!! That wooden crate is a close second though and probably tied with the ironstone! That clock though!!! It’s all so awesome!
What an amazing box! But to choose just one, I’d pick the blue and white compote! My husband and I love antiques, and it would go so well in our farmhouse.
I love the compote and the milk paint!
Oh my goodness, I would be over the stinking moon if I won! The antique hemp sheet would possibly be my favorite, but I don’t know that I could choose just one thing…. The paint and all the supplies is pretty dang awesome too, especially since we just moved and I am redoing a ton of furniture!
Wow..truly a very generous giveaway! My favorite is the miss mustard seed paint.
Pick one? The compote.
No wait……..the hemp sheet.
Uhmmmm…..change that to the ironstone dish.
Yes — definitely the milk paints.
Be still my heart! What a gorgeous and generous giveaway! I am in love with each and every item. I have never felt hemp, so that alone has me curious, the milk paint I love, the ironstone piece is beautiful and I must admit the wooden box stole my heart.
I think the paint – i’ve been wanting to try it but am hesitant. Also love the alarm clock. 🙂
Love, love, love it all!!! I would have to pick the blue and white compote. I enjoy every post. You are such an inspiration.
I have loved playing with your milk paint and have heard so many great things about you from my sister Kelli Wright! My ultimate fave would be the ironstone piece!
My favorites are the compote and the covered ironstone dish! 🙂
No doubt in my mind, my favorite is the paint! 3 quarts and samplers of all the new European Colours, what more could I ask for.
I would love to win everything in your box! But I would definitely love to win your paint!!
Love it all, already have some your products, but if I have to choose one, it would have to be the Bake lite knives! Excited to hear who wins!
P.S. I also love Steve’s comment !
Would be over the moon to receive everything but I think getting the variety of paint would make me the happiest. I have painted several pieces with your milk paint and LOVE the results! Want to try more!!!
Winning some MMS milk paint would put me over the moon. Love everything in the giveaway. Thank you.
Your selection of items is so you! I have to say that I have always wondered why I have never seen brush soap before! I have been a big fan of yours and have been painting furniture forever! This product is so essential in keeping the tools of the trade in tip top shape! I have a house paint brush that I have used for over 20 years… cleaning up is essential to allow the lovely brushes to apply your MMS paints on each and every piece masterpiece that we all create!
Oh my goodness! I have never wanted to win a giveaway so bad! My eyes kept getting bigger and bigger as I scrolled down! When I got to the clock- the exact clock I’ve been looking for to sit next to a bowl of flowers on my coffee table- I about died! What a generous giveaway! You’re so good to your readers!
The alarm clock and knives would be my favorites…for sure! But how can you go wrong with any items found in a Miss Mustard Seed box??
So many wonderful things! But I especially love the clock!
How in the world could I pick a favorite!! D…all of the above!! Thank you for your generosity!!
Well I love everything in the box, but the blue and white compote is my favorite. Thank you for the chance to win!
The hemp fabric has me totally intrigued. I would love some but all the items really are amazing. Thank you for such a generous giveaway and for always sharing a wealth of information. xo- maryjo.
Eek! So much to look at! I guess the hemp sheet since I know exactly what I’d do with it!
How sweet are you! That is such a fantastic giveaway!! My favorite thing would be that little covered ironstone dish…it’s just so cute!
I would love to try the paint!
Besides the paint (which I’m itching to paint another furniture piece of mine with!) I adore the alarm clock. Boy do those bad boys scare the heck out of me when the bell starts clanging but they are so charming!
My fav thing would be the books, but I love the clock also and I would love to have the assortment of milk paints too. I think your milk paint is fantastic. I have been using it almost exclusively for a couple of years and the gently aged patina you get with it is wonderful.
I am speechless. I honestly have never seen a giveaway with so many “I want that” items. Thanks for sharing your great taste with all your readers. Of course I want all of your MMS products but I think I have my eye on the hemp sheets. I recently found a wedding bedspread at a vintage shop. It is linen and has the newlyweds initials and the year 1927 embroidered on it. Now I’m obsessed with antique linens. Thanks again for offering an awesome giveaway!
It’s hard to pick just one favorite, so I think I will cheat a bit and choose the European Colour samples! I would be thrilled to win!
My favorite would be all the paint! I keep telling my husband all about your paint, but we just haven’t gotten around to finding a dealer to try it out. Our latest discussion was how milk paint cabinets would look!
Great giveaway items all around though.
Love that blue & white compote!!
I’d love to try your milk paint! My husband builds furniture and he is a talented artist, and I think we can make some gorgeous pieces with your paint. Is it also weird that my heart went pitter-patter when I saw the twine? It is just twine…but so cute!
Wow so many awesome pieces! Love the clock, hemp sheet, and wooden tote. But who wouldn’t be happy to receive any one of these!
I love it all! I couldn’t just choose one item – the giveaway is so generous!!!
Thanks
Paint, Paint, Paint! That’s my fav! Then the compote! Hey–my birthday is tomorrow, too! 🙂
With each item you presented, the excitement grew and grew. I have your paint brush and would
love some paint to “inspire me”. Thank you!
Billie
So generous, and impossible to choose one! The paints (of course) the compote stand and the wooden tote!
Oh my so many wonderful items in your box! I would be especially happy to have the paint! Thank you for this giveaway! Someone is going to be very happy when they win!
I’ve been following your blog for a long time and have cheered all your successes. Your blog is my favorite. Praying for future success in all you do. My favorite item in the box is the blue and white compote.
Decisions, decisions! I love it all and the fact that it was selected by you personally, but if I HAVE to choose, it’s the blue and white compote. How perfectly timeless and beautiful!
I would love that glass glitter.
I would love everything, but especially the paint! My family and I are missionaries in Haiti and we’re in the process of building a new house/office for our organization. The new space has all my creative juices flowing and I would love to use some of your stuff to make our house feel like a home in the midst of a completely different culture than our own.
All of it! For real – every single thing. I’d be really excited to get the brush and the blue and white compote, but honestly the whole thing is obviously amazing. Fingers crossed!
I love your paint and have several colors, but would love to try more! Without a doubt, though, my favorite would be the antique hemp sheet! I’ve been dying to try an upholstery job with one!
I really enjoy the this website your choice of furniture decorating and painting techniques and how you display them my favorite item would be hard to choose but I would love to try the milk paints because I love to refinish furniture and this is new to me also love the antique dishes
It would be hard to pick a favorite but I love the blue and white compote.
I would love to try the milk paint! I am not new to furniture refinishing but have never used milk paint before! I also love the ironstone 🙂
Oh. My. Goodness! What a fabulous giveaway!! I would love every item, that is for sure, but I think the Look Book would be my favorite simply because I’ve never used milkpaint before and I’d love perusing pages of beautiful inspiration! ♡
What a wonderful giveaway. Your blog is the first thing I open every morning and I was delighted to see what you had in store for us today. I love your paint colors and have bought several samples for small projects. Kitchen scale is one of my favorites but then too, I collect ironstone and the covered dish would be great. All in all, it’s a win win situation. Thanks
What an exciting gift~to the lucky one, *enjoy*! As for me, I would like the hemp oil! I love it! I just ran out and I’ve oiled almost every wood surface in my house (including my dad’s 1927 sled)!
What a great giveaway! I think I’d like the milk paint the most!!! I’ve got LOTS of painting projects ahead and need a really great color! ?
My favorite item would have to be the majority of the box! But the alarm clock caught my eye as it brought back memories of hearing my grandfather wind his every evening before bed. 😉 Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I have lots of projects I want to do, so the paint would be great, and I especially want one of your brushes.
I think my favorite would be the hemp sheet. ? This is such an amazing giveaway! Thank you for thinking of us! ?
This is like picking your favorite child. Have to go with hemp sheet. Really love it all.
I love it all, but my favorite is the compote. What a thoughtful collection!
Oh my goodness this giveaway is fabulous! I would have to say my favorite is the 3 quarts of milk paint! I’ve been wanting to paint an old dresser and have considering trying milk paint to do so. This giveaway could be the push I need for the project!
It is all so beautiful and useful! Love the milk paint, paintbrush and glitter. Thank you for your generous giveaway Marian!
It’s hard to choose…but if I have to, I think it would be the covered ironstone dish. I dabble in collecting ironstone (started after discovering your blog) so a piece from the gal who started it all for me would be extra special. Thanks!
Wow, everything is beautiful! The paint would be my favorite, but I love everything!! Thank you!
The alarm clock or the hemp sheet, can’t choose just one!
There are so many wonderful items in your give away box, but if I have to choose, the blue and white compote dish is my favorite. Thank you so much for offering this give away.
I already have a full range of your paint in the original colours and the accompanying products. I bought a big sample box from Homestead House here in Canada a year or so ago and several pieces of my furniture have received the treatment. I’d be excited to try the new European colours.
That said – it’s tough to pick something out of that fantastic package that I could tag as my favourite item. I would be eager to have a hemp sheet to try an upholstery project with.
wow!! what a wonderful gift! I would love to try your milk paint, but my fav is definitely the blue and white compote. Thanks for the chance to win!
Pick just one? It’s all awesome! I would have to say the milk paint and paintbrush!
Definitely the distressing wax!!! Never used it before….. Nervous I’d do it wrong and ruin a piece. I’d love to master using it, see how it changes my projects.
I would love to try MMSMP on the armoire in my daughter’s bedroom!
I LOVE it all! Super fun giveaway! If I had to pick just one it would have to be your MMS milk paint.
I would love the paint! I’ve always wanted to try it.
Ohhh Your new brush! I have a brush addiction & I’ve been wanting to get yours since it came out.
My most favorite thing would be the paint. I am planning on redoing furniture for my bedroom so it would be absolutely perfect.
The glitter is so cool. This way I could glitter my world with sparkle. Karen from Ambler, PA
Never have I ever seen such a generous and amazing giveaway! As I scrolled the list of included items, each a prize by itself, I became so excited at the prospect of actually winning any, much less all, of them! As a faithful fan if your milk paint, I am especially eager to try the new European color line, so I would love to win that and the Parsons West brush. Oh, and the hemp sheet! And the glass glitter! And that alarm clock! And . . .
Everything in this giveaway is such an amazing representation of why I love your style and blog so much. It is difficult to pick just one item as the are all so amazing! If I have to choose, it would be the covered ironstone dish. I love the understated elegance of Ironstone so much and this piece is perfection!! Thank you so much for the opportunity!
Ahh! So, so, so excited about this giveaway! I had heard about you some time ago, from a local shop in my city called The Ironstone Nest, who sells your line… but I just recently started following you on social media… and I can’t express what an inspiration you are for me. I have wanted to use my creativity and eye for design to make a living, since I can remember, but have always been to intimidated and unsure of where to start. I am so blessed I stumbled across your blog. Thank you so very much for sharing your journey and for all your insight. There is NO WAY to even begin to choose a favorite item in your giveaway… everything is simply divine! I would be simply giddy to own any single item to display in my home. Love reading your blog, please never stop! Hehe
I love it all! But the compote–WOW! Pick me, pick me!
Oh, what a question!!! I’ve been reading your blog for 6 or 7 years, and have been wanting to try your paint for ages!! I also have been trying to transform our bedroom into something calm, relaxing, – a sort of retreat from the busyness and constant refereeing of “she’s ok- let her play with that toy”, “be kind and gentle”, and the feeding and messes and cleaning up of two littles age 3 and 7mo. The hemp sheet I would use to recover a chair, the paint for the furniture, the clock is exactly what I’ve been looking for for my nightstand:)
It’s a toss- up of what change I would love the most, but I’ll say the hemp sheet:)
I could practically redo the entire room with the amazing box of everything beautiful and practical:)
What a wonderful idea & lots of lovely things! I must say that I just drooled at the thought of all that wonderful paint!
I was just thinking this weekend of painting a piece of furniture that needs some oomph and am planning to try one of the new Miss Mustard Seed European colors. So, my favorite part of the giveaway? It would be the paint. My least favorite part will be trying to decide which of the beautiful colors to use! I’m up for the challenge though!
The compote. So many delightful items!
I love all the items, but I think my favorite would have to be your fabulous milk paint! I love all the colors and I love reading your blog and finding so much inspiration for my own home! 🙂
What a generous give away. WOW! Without a doubt the paint and supplies would be my choice! I always want to try everything! Although having a book of yours for my very own would be a blessing.
Everything in that box would be Such a treat to get. This giveaway is so generous! I’ve been trying to try your product for some time so the actual milk paint would be my favorite item/s! Next comes the vintage alarm clock. Clocks are my favorite!!
-Anne
what a goody box! would love to read your book…i’m sure I will be inspired.
This is so generous! I’ve been dying to try your product for a long time so the actual milk paint would be my favorite! Next would be the alarm clock!
I would love to try the milk paint!!
Oh so many great goodies…. But first a thank you for this beautiful gift. I have never tried your paint so I would love it….but that compote and hemp sheet are gorgeous. And that glitter…Aaaww too many great goodies I cant choose just one…..I feel like a kid in a candy store….I love all of it.?
All the paint!! I have some new antique pieces that need some milk paint love!
Oooh, oooh, oooh! The glass glitter. Please let me have the glass glitter! I love me some shiny! This is a fabulous giveaway and I would love every item in that box, but the glass glitter gets me all a-flutter!
I love blue and white–so it would have to be the compote! In my new kitchen I insisted on a row of glass front cupboards to showcase my blue and white–they’re not full yet!
Wow- What an awesome give away!!! The clock would be at the top of the list along with all of your paint products!! I sure hope I am the winner!!
Oh, the blue and white compote…..and your paint of course!
I love everything about this box of goodies but my favorite would probably have to be the milk paint. I’ve been wanting to try it, just too scared I’d mess things up. Your style is amazing & it inspires me.
I feel like I *should* say the clock or ironstone as they are more unique/vintage pieces. But honestly, I would be most excited about picking out MMS milk paint colors and playing around with the paint!
I love the ironstone dish! Also the paint, I’ve been dying to try some of your milk paint but can’t really afford it at this time.
Very generous gift . I have your book and it has inspired me greatly. My favorite item are the samples of the European colors. I have been wanting to try the new colors for a long time. The glass glitter and the hemp oil comes in second.
What a wonderful giveaway. Your blog is my first stop every morning. I look forward to see what you have in store for us each day. I was really delighted when I looked this morning. Kitchen Scale is my favorite paint color and I collect ironstone. Whoever wins is a lucky person and I know that they will enjoy it all, I know I would. Thank for the opportunity.
I love it all! I would be so excited to have all painting supplies, and I love the wood tote, but the blue and white compote is calling my name.
Oh my! What a giveaway! I THINK (can’t really be certain) my fave would be the alarm clock.
I love the antique blue and white compote! ❤️
Way to hard to choose. Any one of the items would be great to win. But ALL of them together is super generous of you! I think the milk paint would be my favorite. I’ve used your milk paint several times and I like it better than any others I have tried. It never disappoints!
Thank you for all you do to inspire us everyday to reach for our dreams.
After a long day of crafting with supplies I could only dream of I would be relaxing with those amazing books❤️ Thank you for the opportunity..someone is going to be very lucky!
I would LOVE the wooden tote! 🙂
I am an artist, but haven’t worked with milk paint yet, and all those supplies look so exciting to play with! But the thing that really made my heart pitterpatter is the alarm clock. My Mom deployed a similar one in a desperate attempt to get me to rise and shine. I was NOT a morning child! Most days, it’s shrill ringing had the sidekick of a wet washcloth to make that happen. Ahh, the good ol’ days! Miss those days, miss my Mom, and even the clock!
The alarm clock stands out as a favorite for me. I used to have one, not antique though, as a teen, and just love classic clocks like that.
I love everything, but would love 3 bags of milk paint!! I’ll do a happy dance if I win!
I NEVER enter these giveaways, but after seeing all the amazing “Miss Mustard Seed” items – things I genuinely associate with your style – I just had to try. While everything is wonderful, if I had to choose just ONE, I’d be over the moon for the antique hemp sheet.
I would have a hard time picking one! Maybe the ironstone or the look book…. Oh I just love it all!
I think it would be the compote but I would love to try the paint. Love your blog!
I think the blue and white compote is my favorite but then there’s the Parsons West brush and cleaner, and then the Hemp oil,I have been wanting to try that forever. Since it’s a rainy stormy day that needs some sparkle maybe the glitter is the necessary item. We have no paint outlet near us so of course the paint too. Thank you for your kindness.
Wow, what a giveaway. You have certainly included some awesome goodies I think the covered ironstone dish would be at the top of my list. It would beautiful anywhere in the house. Then I would really like to grab some of that paint as I have several projects that would just come to life all over again. Enjoy your posts. Thanks!
Truth is, it all says home to me. With my family being in out first home after being homeless for a year, I would take great joy in anything in this box!!
I would love the hemp products to try…but I can find a place for everything in the box!!!! I am getting rid of all of my old clutter so I have space for everything.
I would love the ironstone as well as the blue and white compote.
I read from South Africa for sooo long. Lots op tips and inspiration.
Why, your milk paint, of course!
Milk Paint…never been exposed and would love to get my hands on some!! Love everything in the box though!!
I love it all and use the paint a lot! If I had to choose though, do love the little blue and white compote 🙂
This is a fantastic give away bundle!! The person who wins this will be a lucky lady!
The paint.
I love it all but would really like to add the ironstone piece to my collection.
Thanks!
Karen
awesome giveaway! can i break the “rules” and choose more than one? k…your European colours, your book, hemp sheets, and glass glitter. thank-you for the opportunity!
It’s hard to decide which item to choose as my favorite but I think I’ll go with the clock. It’s just adorable! I wouldn’t be sad about getting samples of the European line though either, I haven’t pulled the trigger on any of those colors yet.
i would love the mms paint….to paint my bathroom vanity. this is an awesome assortment of things. thank you for the chance!
Very hard to decide but I love the clock…..
the ironstone 😉
Wow! What an awesome giveaway! I love everything in it but I have always wanted to try your milk paint so I think I would be most excited about that! Thank you for a chance to win!!!
I’d paint the paint!
That is, I’d LOVE the paint! 🙂
Wowsa! How to pick one favorite?!? I think I have to say the chalk paint. I have never used chalk paint before. The thought of playing with it sounds kinda fun. Whew that was really hard! We love it all!!!
What an amazing giveaway! Oh the things I make with that hemp sheet – I love it!
Everything in the tote is so great, but my favorite item would have to be the hemp sheet! I’m in love with them!
I would adore both the paint and the hemp sheet! I have a rocker that I would love to recover in the hemp sheet!
Ah Marian, you are speaking to my heart. I would love every single thing in this package, but the Clangor clock (love the brand name for an alarm clock!) is beautiful!
I hope I win!
Susan
You are so sweet! I love the ironstone dish!
Everything in the “box” is amazing, but that covered Ironstone dish is the sweetest thing!
What an wonderful, generous giveaway! I have to say that the blue and white compote made me gasp when I saw it — so lovely! And then the sample sizes of all the European colors — that would be amazing to play with! Thanks so much for a chance to win such a great prize!
Thanks for such a generous give away! Would have to choose the hemp sheet as the favorite,
but the compote and ironstone come in a close second!!!!
This is an incredible give-away! It’s got my heart beating!
I’d be super excited most about trying out your Milkpaint!
Wow! What a giveaway. I thing the blue and white compote is utterly charming, but I’d also love to get my hands on that milk paint! Thanks for the chance to win. Fingers crossed!
Marian- this is such a generous giveaway! I think my favorite thing would be the hemp sheet. You’ve been such an inspiration for slipcovers, and I’ve been searching for hemp sheets because of you. I grew up in the Navy my whole life (my dad was a “lifer” and in for 31 years), and we lived in Rota, Spain and traveled all over Europe as a child- (we went to the Ramstein and K.town bases often- always my fav because the Exchanges were so much bigger than what we had in Rota) so it totally resonates with me when you talk about European influences in decorating. Love your blog and so thankful for all that you are doing!
The milk paint is at the top of my list but everything else looks enticing too!
Wow, everything is so lovely! The milk paint would be fun. The hemp sheet and the blue and white compote really caught my eye.
I think my favorite to win would be the hemp oil because I am trying to find a way to refinish all the word work in my house!
The blue & white antique compote… WE ARE PENN STATE… I’d give it to my daughter a PSU grad… but I want all the rest of the items… love your blog… pick meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Wow, picking one is very hard, love them all! I would say the blue and white compote, such a beautiful design.
Ooh! That blue and white compote is beautiful!! I’d probably be more excited to try out the hemp oil though, haha.
just one?? MMS paint…wait, the glitter, arggghhhh, the wooden box!!!
The ironstone would be my favorite item in your sweet giveaway! My very favorite piece is a pitcher that belonged to my precious, precious grandmother. At twenty-one years old, I’ve just started my collection. I’m excited to watch it grow in the coming years!
I love it all!! Especially loving that wooden tote and alarm clock..
I would love any item from the box. But if I have to choose, it would have to be the hemp sheet. Like you I have been a reluctant seamstress, but would love to sew a slip cover from that sheet. I have a bench that would love a new skirt. The mms paint would be used for the legs of the bench.
I would love everything! The paint would be fun to try!
What an incredible giveaway! I guess my fav would be the hemp sheet? I saw these at the Chapel Hill Market and they are awesome! I’d love to try the paint with bonding agent also! All the goodies look wonderful!
My favorite item is the blue and white compote. Thanks for the opportunity to win this awesome giveaway!
Now that’s a giveaway!! Holy Smokes! It’s hard to pick one thing that I’d like the best. 🙂 So I’m going to say MMS Milk paint, brush, hemp oil, etc. It would be like my own little milk paint starter kit. I’ve never tried milk paint before and have been working up my courage to give it a whirl.
So excited for this giveaway! It is nearly impossible to choose since I love it all, but I have been dying to try out your milk paint on a vintage velvet settee that I use for my wedding rental business! Thanks Marian!!!
The samples would be my favorite!! We’re redoing my 3 yr old daughter room into a tea party/antique theme and the colors will be perfect for the items I’ve found!!
I love everything, but that IRONSTONE made my heart pitter-pat! ?
I think the blue and white compote would have to be my favorite, although each and every item would be so awesome!
Oh, so hard to choose! I have a fondness for clocks, and have been dying to get my hands on some of your paint to try on my signs, BUT I have to say the wood tool caddy would be perfect for keeping all my small items organized and contained on my worktable!
Your book for inspiration and that gorgeous alarm clock
Oh I simply love everything. The clock and the little blue and white dish is darling. The thing I “need” is the paint brush! I purchased a package of your milk paint this summer and it has been sitting on the designated piece of furniture (a kitchen hutch) for months. Every day I tell myself I need to get started on that project, but I am afraid. Not quite sure what I am nervous about. I have painted other things. The piece I want to paint was very expensive when I first purchased it ten years ago and I think I am worried about “ruining” it. I really just need to paint that first brushstroke and get over my fears. So, the brush is what I need! (and a kick in the behind to get started) : )
Having two boys in two years my house feels as if it’s on “pause”. Reading your blog is a welcome reprieve during these years of baby gear and madness. My favorite would be your book! God Bless
Such an amazing giveaway! It is difficult to choose a favourite, but if pressed I would have to say the antique compote.
Oh my goodness; you are so very generous, Marian; this giveaway is amazing! I would be happy to receive any of these items, but if I had to pick just one, it would have to be the darling blue and white compote – it would look divine holding my jewelry in my master bedroom!
My most favorite part of the box (such a difficult choice!) would be the hemp sheet. I’m dying to start over with my furniture and have a comfortable farmhouse style with upholstered pieces covered in hemp and grainsack fabrics. I have one piece of grainsack fabric purchased at a Heart of Country antiques show in Nashville, and the hemp fabric would push me on my way! Thank you for your beautiful home-making!
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! So hard to choose, i love everything! What an awesome, amazing giveaway!!! If I had to choose I would choose the hemp sheet, and everything else 🙂
How does one only pick one favorite! Mine would be the alarm clock, love your blog.
Given that the milk paint is totally my favorite, I am interested in checking out the antique hemp sheet. Everything else is a very close third! Wonderful giveaway in honor of your blog-so happy to see the change of content and I cannot wait to see a new post everyday!.
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! I love everything!!! So hard to choose! But, if I had to choose I would choose the hemp sheet and everything else 🙂
How to choose?! My favorite would probably be the paint as we are going to paint a dresser (antique) for my newest little girl’s room. She is due to arrive in January (just after her sister’s second birthday!) and we can’t wait!
I would love to try your milk paint.
And the hemp sheet for my living room also.
Thanks for the give away!
It is hard to choose one item but I think I would pick the milk paint. There are so many projects I could do. Everything is wonderful
Super generous give away! I love your selections but if pressed I would pick the alarm clock and the ironstone. The hemp sheet and paints would be great too. I just want it all! I never win anything but will just try to “think positive”.
I would love the wooden box. I love all things old especially boxes and crates.
I love everything but the clock really speaks to me. I would also love to try your products. I am a paint junkie 🙂
Take Care,
Mandy Jean
The paint of course!! But the alarm clock is so perfect and exactly what my husband has been looking for for our bedroom!! Excellent giveaway!!
Oh goodness….I’m scrolling down and the giveaway keeps going and going and I get more and more excited! This is a truly generous giveaway and each item reflects a little of your knowledge that you have so generously given to us so it’s so hard to choose….but I will!:)
I think all the furniture painting products because I have a basement of stuff that is just screaming for revitalization! Oh…and the hemp sheet!!:)
I am so happy to see your new workshops but alas I will be in Houston at Quilt Festival. I anxiously await your post about the workshops and future opportunities!
Choose just one? HOW??? I love everything!! But, ok, the paint – (and the hemp oil) I need to redo lots of furniture!
Oh the paint! the paint! I’ m planning to start a business next spring. First I will paint 6-8 vintage pieces of my own furniture and use them as my portfolio.
I have a fine art degree. I think this will be a good use of my skills. I want to use milkpaint because its been a good choice for hundreds of years. It is full of possibilities. Its easy to get a custom finish. I have Eulalies sky and I covet martzipan, mustardseed yellow and curio black. I am going to document my pieces with before and after photos. I think your “box” is extraordinarly generous- thank you so much for your how I started my business series. I have learned so much!
This is an amazing giveaway. There’s not one thing that I wouldn’t love and enjoy, but if I need to pick one thing it would be the compote – so lovely!
It’s hard to pick a favorite item from all these lovely goodies, but I am in love with the lidded ironstone dish!
Hi Marian:
Thank you for such a generous giveaway with so many wonderful prizes. That blue and white compote is my favorite item. It speaks to me.
But I’m also chomping at the bit for the milk paint and Parsons West brush. I have a dresser that is on my list of things to makeover and this would be just the push to get it done!
What a lovely giveaway! I’m hard pressed to choose just one item, however I would go for the antique hemp sheet. I’ve been looking at them for years and have yet to purchase one. I’m an avid seamstress so I see so many beautiful possibilities. Although, the milk paint is a close runner up…
Oh, the antique hemp sheet! I recently followed your tutorial for a slipcover and used an old linen tablecloth for a platform rocker cover. It wasn’t as hard as I thought! I would LOVE to try the hemp on an old French chair I have stashed in the guest room. With a new dress, she will need to come out into the main living area! Thanks for the opportunity!
Hard to choose…but I would love the ironstone as well as the blue and white compote.
My favorite thing in the MMS giveaway would be the alarm clock, I love it’s patina and the name — clangor, perfect!
Wow this is so generous of you! I love everything about your blog/style. Lots of inspiration! Let’s see…I think I would be most excited about the ironstone. I’m a sucker for it! But, I am in need of some new milk paint colors…so hard to choose.
Oh wow! I just bought the books a couple weeks ago, so I think my favorites would be the paint! Thanks so much!
For me it would be the covered ironstone dish!!!! I love ironstone !! I have been collecting it for awhile now, every thrift and antique store I go to I look for it !
Thanks for the giveaway!
Anita
What a kind, generous giveaway! We just moved into a new home, and I’d love to try your milk paint! The hemp sheet is another favorite in your box! Thank you for the opportunity to win!
Love the spirit that inspired the fabulous giveaway! I’d like the opportunity to try the milk paint but would enjoy every single item.
Pick a favorite?! You’ve got to be kidding me. They are ALL my favorite! I love your MMSMP – have never tried the BA, HO or WP, but would love a chance to. And those KNIVES? Gorgeous! But I think I might love that compote just a little more than all the others…I’m a total sucker for blue and white.
What a wonderful and generous giveaway!
I would most like the milk paint!
Oh I love it all! I’d love the chance to try out your MMS paint. The ironstone and compote are so pretty too. Thanks for the chance to win such a generous gift!!
Wow! What a wonderful giveaway! You are a very generous soul! The whole box is splendid of course, but my favorite would be the milk paint in the European Colors. They look just beautiful and I have a few pieces in mind that I would love to use them on. Thanks again for your generousity!
Too many to choose from! I can’t make up my mind, the hemp sheet (I was hoping you had some left over from market), the cutlery tote (I already have a dozen), or the compote ( I don’t have one and that one is so sweet). I think the sheet is what I really want. Yes, definitely the sheet is what I want and need. Can’t wait to try some of your ideas on the sheet.
I want to thank you on the post regarding the article on sewing and piping. That was the swift kick I needed to be brave enough to try piping and I even learned how to put in invisible zippers. The last couple of years I have been buying beautiful baby cradles and fancy antique doll beds for my fur babies. With the intent to make old fashion mattresses for them. After reading how you started making cushions and making mistakes and you still weren’t perfect, gave me the confidence to just try. My first one was pretty ugly the corners were atrocious. I don’t know what I was thinking, yuk. But now I am the mattress making queen. They don’t always come out perfect, (corners just kill me, sometimes), and I get in a hurry. I think even you would be proud of me. Next up, upholstering is on my bucket list. With your tutorials, I think I can do it!
Thank you so much for sharing….
The hemp sheet, I think. I’ve never experienced such and am curious.
Oh my goodness! What an awesome giveaway! I love it all, but I think the antique blue and white compote is my favorite.
What an amazing giveaway! I love the milk paint and the personal touch of adding in the clock, hemp sheet, knives, compote, and ironstone. It’s so hard to choose, but I would have to say my favorite would be the ironstone, I just started my collection and I would love to add another piece, personally picked by the ironstone queen, Miss Mustard Seed!
You have posed a challenging question! I think my most desired piece would be the wooden tote. It’s practical, it’s versatile, and it’s great looking. What’s not to love?
What a cool giveaway! I think I would be most excited about the glass glitter. Not sure what I would do with it but it would be a lot of fun to come up with a project to use it!
What a generous giveaway full of great goodies! My favorite is getting to choose 3 milk paints! Fingers crossed!
What a generous giveaway! Favorite thing would have to be the paint samples. Would love to try your products- the colors look beautiful!
Oh my…a Favorite???… I really, REALLY do LOVE it all! But, if forced to choose, I think I would say that alarm clock~ something about that particular one speaks to me…Although, I can hear pretty much every other thing saying my name as well~Calling for my attention & trying to edge the alarm clock out… 🙂
It is all GORGEOUS! As are you! I look forward to each of your posts…& adventures! You truly are an inspiration, so thank you for that! Keep up the fabulous work that you do…just being you…& Kriste too of course!)
I’ll definitely be keeping my fingers crossed & my mind wandering with ideas about what I’d do with each thing~
(After I picked myself up off of the floor that is…I would definitely land there if I won! Lol)
Have a GREAT Day Marian & Thank YOU!!!
If I had to choose… my favorite item would be the milk paint! Thank you.
I can only pick one??? Oh, what pieces I could redo with that paint, the glitter would be great for Christmas ornaments, and… too many goodies to choose just one! What a great giveaway.
All of these items look fantastic. I think if I had to choose one it would be the hemp oil. I have wanted to try it for so long!
Though I think I would love every single thing, I’m gonna go with all the milk paint supplies. To truly do over a piece of furniture the *right* way!
I love the hemp oil!!!!!! It is amazing. I recently moved and can’t find mine… so I would be most excited about that! Despite the move and chaos I am painting furniture instead of tackling this mess!! I am working on a serpentine and bow front birds eye maple dresser (that I won at auction and was ugly) that I just discovered under three layers of bad paint jobs! Hemp oil would be perfect!!! I want to do a hand painted design like you often do as I can’t bring myself to paint all over the birds eye. Thanks for considering me!!
Love everything, but the ironstone dish is probably my favorite in the box:)
Marian, I love your blog! I remember the first time I found it…..looking at your tutorials and learning of a whole new world opening up to me. This was around Christmas 3 years ago. My first project at that time was stripping my dining room table down (using your step by step videos) and stained the top in dark walnut then used ascp in old oakre for the bottom. I was mesmerized at what I could do….because of your blog. I was hooked!! Your blog has been inspirational to help me decorate and fall in love with my home. I look forward everyday to reading your blog. If I won…. my hands down favorite would be to try your milk paint! Thank you!
I would love to try your milk paint! I’ve been wanting to try it for a while, so that would be my favorite item!
The blue and white compote? The MMS paint? the wooden tote? I couldn’t pick my favorite item in the giveaway. Thanks for the chance to win!
What a generous gift! I would love everything but especially all of the milk paint and supplies. I have yet to actually use milk paint but I have been indecisive as to colors. This would force me to finally make a decision and give it a go!
What a generous box – wow! Can I pick two favorites – which is hard to do – I would say the antique hemp sheet and hemp oil, but that’s a tough one! Thank you so much for the chance to win!
I love them all! But I would really like to try the paint and feel the material!
Thank you
Sharon
Holy sweet giveaway, Miss Mustard Seed! I have to choose ONE of those wonderful goodies?? I’m not sure I can! But I’d really like to try the hemp oil on some tired furniture I have, so I’ll pick that. But only because I have to choose one thing!!
Wow! How lovely and generous of you!
Obviously love it all, but I do covet that little alarm clock!
Thank you for sharing! —- Shawn
What a generous giveaway! I couldn’t believe that the list kept going on and on. I would love to try your milk paint and hemp oil. But my favorite has to be that beautiful compote!
I am loving the blue and white compote:) so pretty!
So hard to pick a favorite, but I have some furniture projects to complete, so the paint would be awesome!
I have always wanted to try your paint!
Wow, Marian, this is an awesome and very generous giveaway! It’s hard to pick one thing but I am in love with the compote and the brush. Using a good brush makes all the difference in the world when working on a project but I have to say the compote caught my eye immediately. Love your story, you’re an inspiration to all the girls trying to make their homes beautiful on a shoestring budget.
jen
Do I really have to choose one….? The compote is probably my absolute favourite, but really I like it all and would see any item as a total blessing.
Amazing!!!! Anything would be amazing, but probably the hemp oil. 🙂 I also love refinishing things… thanks for the chance!
I have followed you for years. Your blog is one of the first ones I open in the morning for daily inspiration. Lovely giveaway. I love it all. Hard to pick, however that clock is a favorite of mine. Thanks for the chance.
Is it fair if I mention 3? The hemp sheet is probably tops, but I love the alarm clock and compote, too.
Wow–the paint, for sure! I have really been wanting to try out your milk paint. I really appreciate all your tips for starting your own business. I LOVE your blog and your style.
Marian,
Must say I love it all but I’m stuck on the box – however a signed book would be a treasure.

HOLY COW! Amazing giveway Marian! You’ve gone all out offering so many treats. The blue and white compote would be my pick. Because it’s soooo you and a little of you would be so nice to have around. Good luck to all your readers and whoever ends up with this haul, congratulations lucky you!
Wow, so many wonderful things.So difficult to choose! But as an amateur woodworker it is the hemp oil that has me especially interested. Thanks for the chance to win such a great giveaway.
Oh, I would love to finally try the paint. Thanks for the great giveaway!
I would have to say the PAINT!!
I love to be creative, that’s just who I am…so the paint gives me so many opportunities to repurpose something old into something new…added bonus, I get new painted furniture in my home decor! Everything else is an added blessing.
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to win! By the way, I can’t wait to read your book…if I can’t win it know I’m going to buy one!!
I would love to read your books! I love your work so much, it’s truly beautiful. The pieces that you create are one of a kind and your blog is so wonderful to read!
I would love to use your milk paint and try out the brush!! Thanks!
Such an amazing and generous giveaway. Thank you so much for doing this. I think I would love the milk paint. I haven’t tried it yet, but, would love to
Wow! I think this is the best giveaway I’ve ever seen. So many great things, it’s tough to pick just one… but I guess I’d choose the paint since I’ve been really wanting to get some to try out on my dining room chairs.
Thank you for spreading sunshine Marian. I love coming to your blog each day.
What a great surprise for one lucky person!! I would love the covered ironstone pot and the compote. Ironstone is my new love!!!
LOVE the antique blue and white compote and LOVE the hemp sheet and everything else!
I love everything! But if I have to choose one, it’s the little blue and white compote, I absolutely love it! Thank you so much Marian for this opportunity. My fingers are crossed!!!
The ironstone! No, the paint! No, the compote! Who can decide!? You’re so generous. Thank you. Wishing you the best always.
I love every item! But I would love to try out the European sample colors. The books for inspiration! Always good to have a great brush to work with as well. Pick me, pick me!
You do such great work, and I love seeing your new projects. One day I will make it out to take one of your classes. It’s on my bucket list!
Well, I can think of something lovely to do with all of it, but as several others have commented, hemp sheets are hard to come by in my neck of the woods. What a generous prize!
The wooden tote, hemp sheet, paint, and the ironstone, everything else is a bonus 🙂
Hmmm…tough one! I LOVE your style and am a huge fan/follower! I collect old wooden boxes/crates so I’d really enjoy that. Would also love to have the books to add to my DIY resource library! Who are we kidding-it’s all fabulous!
I love good paint brushes and I want to try one of yours. Of course with some milk paint.
What a fantastic giveaway~! My favorite would be the Milk Paint colors that I can choose!
I love all the items but if I have to choose one it will definitely be the European milk paint colors.
This is an awesome giveaway!
Thanks miss mustard seed for being such an inspiration and good to your readers, and followers.
I love good paint brushes and want to try yours. With some milk paint of course.
My favorite is the paint. Thanks!
What an incredible give away! I think the paint samples are my favorite but, it’s all fantastic stuff.
Oh my goodness! What a wonderful grouping! I am most excited about the paint and supplies, but the whole gift is so lovely. Thanks for the chance!
What a wonderful giveaway! I love everything! But my favorite is the paint! I get so excited every time I get chipping! 🙂
Speechless! What a great giveaway! Picking just one favorite item is impossible, they are all so wonderful.
Wow, I love it all! The compote! The glitter! The linen! Hemp oil! The box! I love it all! My #1, your book. I would really enjoy reading it! Thanks for doing this!
What an awesome giveaway!!! I want to choose the entire collection as my favorite, but if I have to choose just one, I’m going with the Bakelite knives. I love the color and texture of them. My great grandmother had a Bakelite dresser set that had the same color as the handles. Anything that reminds me of GeeGee is a good thing!
Oh my goodness – what a wonderful give way!!!! Everything is fabulous but my favorite thing to win would be the milk paint I’ve been dying to try it out on some “dated” furniture in my home. I think it would add some real character to my pieces. Thank you so much for the opportunity to win!
What a neverending list of giveaways!! They would all be my favorites, but the paint supplies might be on top!
It’s hard to choose but I think the compote. I love the delicate design. I could think of a dozen or more uses besides just sitting looking pretty.
Oh, the paint, no the antique alarm clock since I’ve been looking for one and have come up empty!
Thanks for the giveaway!
I think I would be most excited about the hemp sheet, but it’s a very generous, well-rounded giveaway. Would also love to try out your paint and hemp oil! Thank you!
I haven’t use your products yet, I’m making my little star up box I bought already 4 milk paint colors a brush, hemp oil, wax and bonding agent, I’m so impatient to start using them. So would love to have the book and the clock.
Now a question. I have an old trunk that I love but there is an odor that I have not been able to remove. I’ve tried charcoal and coffee grounds. Any other suggestions? Thanks!
I just bought a sideboard from Craigslist having been inspired by YOU to paint it, so of course I would be most excited to use these paints for my new project! But then again, sitting that beautiful footed compote on top would be very exciting… And that ironstone… Hard to pick just one favorite.
The ironstone is absolutely gorgeous, but I would love to win it all! 🙂
I really love everything, but the three quarts of paint would be fantastic. So many pieces around my house I would like to refinish especially two bookcases I inherited when I lost my Mom in August. They are over 50 years old and went to all the homes we moved into as we traveled as a military family. Always made me feel settled in once Mom had them set up and filled with all her books. The bookcases are wood but nothing fancy. They are, however, cherished.
Thanks,
Renee
Oh my goodness, everything is lovely but honestly my favorite would probably be the European color samples of your paint. I recently started using your milk paint and I am obsessed! Nothing in my home is safe! ? my local store doesn’t carry the European colors yet. Thanks for your inspiring blog and giveaway!
The linen sheet hands down!!! Although the sample packets of the European paint line would be amazing also!!!
The knives! My grandmother had a set like that! Brings back fond memories!
Oh my, everything in the package is fabulous! I think my favorite item would have to be your European paint samples. i’ve been wanting to try them all.
Thanks so much for your generosity!
Sarah K
Um, everything! If I had to pick I’d say the paint or the hemp sheet or the alarm clock or… You have put together an amazing give collection!
That’s so generous of you to offer so much in a give away! Those are all wonderful items and I would treasure each one if I were to win. However, if I could only pick one item from the box, I’d choose your milk paint. I’ve watched some of your videos, and have looked at your products, but haven’t purchased any. Maybe someday (soon). Thank you for being so nice.
Ohhhhh I love it all! I would really love to try your milk paint and paint brush. I have just started my first antique booth and would love to try your paint for some items for my booth. Thanks so much for the chance to win <3
Only one? Well…. that alarm clock is so darling, but I would have to say the paint. I have been wanting MMS milk paint for some time now, but I live so far away from any stores that carry it. I already have your book and would LOVE to try some of the tutorials that are shown in it. Thank you for the opportunity.
Funny I am sitting here watching your slipcovered chair series on YT! Deciding whether I am up for the challenge or not!?!
Anyway what a great giveaway!
There is just no way to pick from all of that!!!!!
The paint??
The books?
The tote??
Hemp?
Love it all!!
There is no way to pick just one item. I love them all, although I am partial to the flatware and the blue & white piece.
The blue and white compote! No, the linen sheet!, Wait, the paint and brush! Never mind, it’s all wonderful!
Wow! I can’t even think…I would love one of your books!
What a wonderful and generous giveaway MMS! I would be a happy girl just to have the glitter! 🙂
The milk paint or the ironstone pieces, but really how can you pick a favorite?!?!
I like the ironstone!!!!
Each item in the gift box is incredible! I have been wanting to try a paint treatment on an old dresser. The cost of products and my own fear have prevented me from taking the plunge. Because of that, I would have to say my favourite thing in the giveaway box would be the paint. I absolutely love your work. Thank you for reading my comment.
I’ve been wanting to try your paint, but I’m a sucker for ironstone, so it’s hard to pick a favorite!
Winning this box would give me all the materials I would need to create a beautiful piece of furniture. Love the blue and white compote though.
Love the ironstone!
Such a difficult choice, but the blue & white compote would look so lovely in my home!!
I would be in heaven to win any of these incredible items, but if I had to choose just one it would be your fabulous milk paint!
The milk paint! I’ve yet to try it.
The alarm clock, simple, functional, beautiful. The items you selected have MMS all over them ?
Wow! So much to love! I’d love to give the glass glitter a try!
This may sound really strange but I love, love the Hemp Oil. I even converted my husband (a lover of polyurethane on everything). The thing I love best – it repels dust.
Just one?? I cannot decide because they are all fabulous. Probably the paint and wax/hemp oil though.
Very proud of you and your efforts at gardening this year. If I can help or just encourage you along, just email me.
My favorite would be your book Inspired You. Your totally amazing at what you do and I would love to get some good ideas from your book.
What a treasure! I’ve enjoyed your posts daily for years and everything you’ve picked is just perfect! I basket like that would be like welcoming an old friend home. Hard to choose a favorite, so many things I’ve wanted to try myself but I’d probably be most excited to try out a few of your paint colors (though those knives….)
I would love to win any of the gifts but especially the milk paints. I’d love to try them.
I’m new to using the mms milk paint and thanks to your speedy reply , my first project was a success! My favorite item would be the ironstone, because I have no pieces with lids.
Crossing my fingers!
I love everything! I think my favorite thing is the clock (but I love the compote & ironstone too 🙂
Would love to try the paint. Already have a piece of furniture in mind.
I would love practically every item. Maybe the milk paint and hemp sheet the most though. Thanks for the opportunity.
I would love the three quarts of MMS Milk Paint. I have an old dresser in my daughters room with great bones, I would love to use your paint to give her a great piece to cherish as she gets older!
Just one of these items would be a great giveaway–all together it’s just awesome. The brush has been on my wish list since I first saw it on your blog. And an antique hemp sheet would be perfect.
Thank you for being so generous!
Hi. I would probably say the ironstone dish. But I’ve always wanted to try your paint also. They all are pretty great though.
So many wonderful things to choose from! I would have to say the wooden tote and the paint so that I could paint the tote! The alarm clock is great also. You are so generous with your gifts and also with your talent! Thanks so much Marian!
oh, my goodness. how very generous and what fun for the anticipation. please count me in. and thank you.
I have been wanting to do some milk painting projects, but have never tried. I am hoping I am the lucky one who wins. Putting in some shamrocks for luck???????
Love it! I love all of it !! I would love to be able to try the samples of European Color Line of MMS Paint! You inspire me!
The MMS milk paint would be fantastic. We are in the process of remodeling our basement and I have several pieces that I would like to revive with some of your paint colors. I also am loving that little clock it would be so perfect on my nightstand.
Any of these items would be WONDERFUL!!
I don’t think I can decide!! Perhaps the paint
supplies…it all seems so YUMMY! Thank you!!
While I LOVE everything, hands down it would be the antique wood tote. It reminds me of the days when I was younger and would go antique shopping with my mom-she looked for the wooden pieces with the best stories to tell! 🙂 She really loved wood!
Awesome giveaway ! I would choose the alarm clock as my favoirte. Mornings can be so hard to get up to, but with that sweet antique, it would give me a cheery smile on my face. Love your generosity !!!
I love blue & white so I choose the compote!
marian, what a lovely thing to do. Everything in the giveaway is beautiful. I love that compote but would love the samples of your European colors. I’ve followed your blog for many years and love the new direction you are going in. Thanks for all the inspiration you give all of us.
I’d sure like to try the paints and hamp oil!
All are wonderful. If I have to pick just one I guess my favorite is the covered ironstone!
Everything looks wonderful! But to choose one item it would be the hemp sheet. I’ve never seen one and would really love to get creative with it!
Oh my goodness! The paint products make me swoon, but a hemp sheet and ironstone and .. and .. I could never pick a favorite out of everything do wonderful. That is an extremely generous package, just like you!!
Antique Hemp Sheets? Be still my heart!
Best giveaway in the history of giveaways!
The paint, of course! 🙂
I love the compote! It’s so pretty! But I also love the paint, the brush, and everything else. What an exciting goody bag to win!
While choosing only one item form that long list of goodies seems impossible, for me it would have to be the MMSMP in my choice of color. I am in the misdst of redoing my bedroom and am going to paint my bedroom furniture. It’s a first for me, and I’m so nervous!! Hope I win!
The paint supplies would be awesome so I could finally try my hand at milk paint. I would also love the covered ironstone dish. I love ironstone as well!
Your book Inspired You would be awesome to have!
My favorite is the clock because of the art nouveau numerals! I figure I can buy the paint but might never see a clock like that again or let myself splurge on a hemp sheet…
It’s hard to say!!! But probably just the paint. I LOVE milk paint. By the way, I enjoyed meeting you in Montgomery last weekend at Chapel Market. You are awesome!!!!
I would LOVE every single thing! My favorites would probably be the ironstone, the brush and the paint!
I think I would love the ironstone the most, but I KNOW I would USE the brush the most!!!
Oh, be still my heart!!! This is wonderful. I love all the the items, but I do love the blue and white compote….the alarm clock…..the hemp sheet. They are all wonderful and I would be happy with anyone of them. Thanks for the opportunity to win something. It would be a first. I have your book and love your milk paint.
That’s not a box, that is a BOX! I would love to try your paint. I have so many, many, many things I can use it on. Thanks for doing it.
What a beautiful give away! I love the covered dish!
Oh, what a great “Miss Mustard Seed In A Box”! Actually, I need the paint, hemp oil, and wax (was just thinking of ordering some from my nearest retailer), but if I have to choose the item i LIKE the most, it’s definitely the little ironstone covered dish. So pretty!
Now, if only I could win it….
I would probably be the most excited by the ironstone but all of the goodies are pretty dang exciting.
Ironstone seems to be so hard to find around my area of Texas! I live way to far to make it to the shows where you sell your finds and by the time I get the email saying you’ve restocked your online store, all the goodies that appeal to me are long gone so, really, I would be thrilled with any of the things that your are offering, So thank you for your inspiring website and thank you for a chance at a great give-away!
Hugs,
Bambi
Oh that is so not a fair question! I love it all. Ok, if pressed for one thing, I would have to say my favorite thing is the covered ironstone dish (and your paint!). Thanks for a chance to win all these amazing things.
OOH LA LA!!!! I love it all!!! But I would especially love to win the Milk Paints as you have inspired me to take on a few projects…
I just think the package is an abundance of loveliness and I do love the ironstone as well.
xoxo
Everything is lovely, but the blue and white compote is calling my name! ❤️❤️❤️
As always, everything you compile looks fabulous! I particularly love the vintage alarm clock – so sweet for a bedside table. You never fail to inspire.
All would make me very happy but, I esp love your paint colors!
Wow, you are so very generous! Thank you! My favorite things would be a tie between the paints and the covered ironstone dish. I honestly don’t know what I would love more.
You are so very generous with your gift. As I was scrolling down, you kept adding item after item! What a wonderful gift for the lucky winner!
It is very hard so choose one particular item; however, my preferred item would be your book, then I would have all the great projects, decoration ideas and tips to use all the other gifts in your giveaway!
Thank you for your generosity!
So difficult to chose. I would like to try your paint and the blue and white compote is sweet.
What a fabulous giveaway and how to decide?! I think the paint colors but the compote and ironstone are beautiful. I can already image where to put all the items and then curl up with the book to dream some more.
Sorry if I’m entering duplicate comments. Can’t tell it my comment is posting or not. I’d love the paint! Thanks for the giveaway.
WOW!!! What a giveaway! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for whoever wins it! My most favorite thing to win would be the hemp sheet. I have wanted one for a long time to work with on some pillow projects and whatever else. The texture! They are just so cool. The wooden box would be a close second. Love wood and love boxes! Thank you!!! I love your blog and look forward every morning at work to your most recent post showing up in my inbox!
Oh Marian, I love your paints-I just used the green on an old set of wooden shutters!! 🙂 The entire giveaway is dreamy, but the blue and white compote makes me drool-haha! This is Christmas in a box- THANK YOU! Blessings xo
Don’t make me choose! But if I have to pick one… The hemp sheet-no the paint packs, no-the set of old knives; no it’s the sheet! Well truthfully, it’s the fact that’s it’s so many goodies all together!!
Too many items to choose a fave but the European Colours made my heart flutter! I have a few smaller items that I’ve put aside (ok, I’m HIDING them from my husband) for our new house we are moving to and would love to try the European Colours on them. I can just see this one small metal cart I found painted in Layla’s Mint – dreamy. And the new Parsons West brush is exciting too!!!! Send it all my way!!!!
All of this sounds heavenly! I’ve been wanting to use your milk paint on a china cabinet, so MMS Milk Paint would be my favorite (along with all of the rest of the items)!
For me, it’s a toss-up between the paints and the ironstone — but it’s all lovely!
Oh my goodness. What an awesome giveaway. I love it all but especially love the ironstone. I have begun my collection because of your blog. You are such an inspiration!
What a wonderful group of items. I am most interested in the chalk paints, but they all sound so wonderful. Thank you for having this giveaway.
Wow! What a lovely display! I like everything but my favorite would be the blue and white compote!
The sheet. That beautiful beautiful sheet.
I want it all! 🙂 i am transitionning from prim to french farmhouse and I have a lot of painting to do!
Thank you for being my number one source for inspiration.
The glass glitter, or the Ironstone, no wait, the book…I just can not decide. I would cherish it all!
I would love your antique blue and white compote! So beautiful and delicate. I might put a few clementines in it and it would be lovely 🙂
Ohhhh! That’s so hard to choose! Literally love them all! I’ve been following you from the beginning…you are such an inspiration! Probably your book…I’m sure it’s full of everything that made me follow you in the first place!
I love it all but the tureen reminds me of having soup at my Granny’s house. She was Granny Bus because I went on the bus to see her.
Marian, I would love the Hemp Oil because I have never seen it in my shopping forays.
Thanks for doing such a nice thing for your audience. Mary in NH
Wow! What an awesome box of goodies – would love it all, but I would especially like to use the hemp sheet.
Oh my my, my my!! How I would love to win something of yours!! I’ve followed your escapades & projects sooooooo faithfully!! I would love to try your mms milk paint on a little table I just came by, BUT I’m also so endeared to the compote AND the ironstone piece!!
I’ll let you surprise me when you notify me that I’ve been chosen as a winner!!!
OH MY GOODNESS….I would LOVE to try your milk paint!
Thank you for the giveaway!
The milk paint and the iron stone dish!!
Oh my, I would sprinkle a tiny smidge of glitter in my hair, fill the compote with bonbons and eat every one while I decide which color to paint the base of my farm table.
OH MY GOODNESS … everything should be labeled “goodness” because IT IS. My favorite? Well, it’s a toss-up between the wooden box and the alarm clock. Love it all. What a great giveaway.
Thanks from the heart!

What an amazing giveaway…how do you pick a favorite…I love it all! I have to say though I am a sucker for linens…so maybe the hemp sheet, but I love to paint also, so maybe the milk paint…but WAIT, I have an old antique buffet that was my grans that is in desperate need of some hemp oil…and your books, oh my! Too many choices! It’s like trying to pick my favorite room in your house…cant’, I love them all!
Be still my heart! To choose one when they all call my name as if chosen by a dear friend!
I have projects already lined up calling for the milk paint and accessories, a chair in the living room says, “Pick the hemp sheet!”, and I have longed to own some ironstone ever since catching your love of it.
My heart went pitter-patter-tick-tock over the alarm clock when I first laid eyes on it. That’s my favorite! What a joy filled give away!!! Thank you!
Hmmm, difficult decision…..GRIFFINDOR!
Oh wait, wrong decision.
It would have to be your set of European sample colors. I am about to embark on my first milk painting project, but choosing a color has held me back. These samples could certainly help me decide what colors I prefer without a huge commitment.
what a fantastic offer – like everyone else it is hard to pick just one item – the hemp sheets probably, but then I am anxious to try your new brush, and I love the hemp oil too….You are such an inspiration to so many of us – thank you for sharing your projects, thoughts, ideas and families with all of us, I know I feel like I know you personally, and we’ve never met! Your blog is the first AND last thing I read when checking my mail.
Sheesh!! What a fabulous offering, I don’t know that I could pick one favorite! I would love to give some of the paint colors that I don’t have a try, that compote is stunning, and I have been looking for a copy of your book, but I would LOVE that adorable alarm clock! Thank you so much for sharing some of these things you love with us!
What an incredible giveaway! I have followed you for a while and would love to try out the paint!
Hemp oil!
Its a between the compote dish and the hempsheet. I would use the compote dish the display my handmade soaps and the hempsheet to make a pillow case for my large bed pillows.
Wow!!! What an awesome giveaway!!!!! The paint brush would be key( we all know what it’s like to paint w/ a great paintbrush:)) and the ironstone. I have a really hard time finding it in my area!!
Thx for the chance:)
VERY hard to choose but the selection of paints/brushes/etc. will be inspiring and just the push I need to get started painting furniture, which I have wanted to do for a very long time 🙂
How in the world do you pick one thing? The paint – boxwood- for my sideboard, the compote ( I am a sucker for this), the clock that I know exactly where it would go in my house. I am so sorry but I cannot choose just one.
I LOVE your box! If I had to pick, I’d probably pick the covered ironstone!
Decisions, decisions … just so hard … love everything … and WHAT a give away! Would be an honor to win it as you have been (and continue to be) such an inspiration!
Asking us to pick just one of those amazing items is like waiting for Christmas morning when I was a child. That said, my first choice would be your Hemp Oil because I just can’t live without it. I use it on everything and as an extra bonus my dog Shadow says he loves it too!. I have to be very careful not to leave anything around before I have had a chance to wipe it down. That’s one happy puppy.
So hard to pick just one item because they’re all fabulous! I guess I’d have to say hemp oil because it’s something I’ve been wanting to try.
What an amazing give away. I would love everything. I think the hemp sheet would be my favorite, because I am having a difficult time finding one for a project. So exciting for whomever wins. Thank you for thinking of your loyal readers.

I love it all, but the most appealing to me are the Milk Paint items and antiquing puck. I stumbled across your blog posts a few months ago when I was looking on-line for slip covering instructions. I subscribed and have been reading daily ever since. I have successfully slip-covered my living room couch and chairs since then, and refinished and reupholstered a ladies arm chair. Now you have me thinking of all the possibilities to ‘refresh’ some of my furniture pieces with milk paint (like my 34 year old pine bedroom set ! Haha) …… and ……. I found have retrieved my first piece from garbage day a few streets away from my house. It’s a wooden antique love seat that needs some repair, but could be beautiful painted and reupholstered. Your blog is inspiring and your addiction to creating new things from old things is catching. My mind keeps spinning with ideas and I’m looking at cast-offs everywhere I go……..so many possibilities. Thanks for a writing a great blog with a personal touch.
What a beautiful prize! You have inspired me to paint a dresser so the paint and brush would really come in handy. Love the covered ironstone dish, too.
OH my….. Just one item because the entire contents of the box literally took my breath away. Just a little side note….. NEVER gasp in excitement while your husband is driving. He just mufht think someone is about to hit you. just saying. 🙂 so back to the one item…. the beautiful clock or the hemp sheet. But it is all beyond lovely!
I love everything but I would be so excited to try your milk paint! I just love your style and blog! 🙂
I think that everything in the box is wonderful. I would love to try the products I haven’t worked with yet like the hemp oil.
I would love the hemp sheet!! and everything else in the box! 🙂
OOOH exciting. I would love any and all of it, including the box , for I am a box person. They draw me in.
Favorite item would be the brush. I hear others in blogland rave about the Parson brush. I have always been a Purdy person , I’d like to give the Parson a try. I am gearing up tp tackle the kitchen cabs.
This is better than the lottery! Everything is wonderful in it’s own way, but my heart skipped a beat when I saw the antique blue and white compote. I’d use it as a stand for a plant in a small pretty white ironstone pot. Your book is wonderful too since I lent mine out to a friend and am missing it terribly.
Love the antique knives!
I love love love your paint and would love to win anything with the MMS stamp on it!
I love the glitter!! What girl doesn’t need glitter with Christmas just around the corner??!!
WOW. The list of items kept coming in the gift kept coming and coming. I didn’t know I would have to pick my favorite. Of course I would love to have the milk paint, the hemp oil and any of the vintage items but I would have to say it would be your book. I don’t normally purchase books (I go to the library a lot) and it would be great to have a copy of it.
Thanks so much,
Christie
…..I love the box. I absolutely love the box. …..there’s just something about old wood. ACK! I want it!
Wow! This could be 3 or 4 giveaways!! All items are great BUT the one I would love is the hemp sheet!! Thanks for the chance to win!!
Oh my goodness, what a generous offering this is! I began to look for ironstone thanks to you and your collection, so I would dearly love the ironstone. However, a gift of your paint products is just what I need to get started as a ‘too scared to paint’ dreamer. Then there is your book – wow you have made it too hard to choose a favorite. Thank you for the chance to win…
Oh, the knives with the bakelite handles! I was so sad when a set from my grandmother was lost in a recent move. Thank you for offering this give-away.
I would be appreciative of any of them – it would be like an early Christmas gift to ME! But I’ve always wanted to try the paint, so that might be my favorite.
Oh, my! So many beautiful items in this box! I adore the knives, would love the opportunity to use the milk paint and hemp oil but my absolute favorite would have to be the hemp sheet. What an amazing and thoughtful giveaway!
your hemp oil rocks! I bought some and used it on my front door and it was fantastic to apply, gave the exact finish i wanted and i talk about it to everyone who works with wood (and those who don’t)…I love it and how it makes my hands feel, too–and it smells great!
The hemp sheet, the the delightful, time worn, previously loved, rare hemp sheet to be used to personalize an upholstery project! The box is a perfect representation of your style and taste.
I love the blue and white compote, I have started to collect a bit of transfer ware.
Aww, your generosity is so precious. The paints and hemp oil would be nice. I have several projects that I need to do. The hemp sheets would be great!
Oh wow! Now that I’ve picked my jaw up from the floor..do I have to pick just one favorite?? That hemp sheet is calling my name & the compote & the wood caddy..I would be happy with just one of your generous offers!
The whole enchilada! After painting a few pieces of furniture with latex and being disappointed with the results then finding milk paint, I would certainly say the paint. I used the color typewriter to makeover some antique Windsor chairs. I was like a mini Marian sending out the before and after pics to my family!
Oh my. Picking just one favorite is hard to do. Such an awesome gift package. I think my favorite would have to be the paint. I have always wanted to try milk paint. I use a lot of chalk paint, but have been scared to try the milk paint. I know I really need to.
I can’t breathe!!! What a generous package. It’s a tie between the hemp sheet and the blue and white compote. I have been collecting blue and white antique dishes since I was 16 so if I had to choose it would be the compote. However, your post about hemp sheets has had me wanting them ever since! Love your style and look forward to your posts. Thank you for sharing.
The paint! I’ve been wanting to try some, but the only store anywhere near me that carries it is a specialty store and that’s just not going to happen! I love the crate too.
Everything! I am envisioning all the pieces I could paint and where to put the antique pieces!
The MMS PAINTS would be a fabulous windfall! I have used Annie Sloan and am not completely satisfied. The whole shebang would be Noel in October. Great website and blog, BTW.
The box is chock full of wonderful things, any of which I would use and enjoy. I think my favorite thing in the box is the blue and white compote. Blue has never been a favorite color of mine until recently. We plan to move within a year and I am thinking of decorating with lots of blue. (I made this decision months ago, but it will come in handy should I be the winner.)
I would love to read your books and the paint would be awesome!
Pick just one??! Not possible! I collect iron stone so would loooove one from MMS! But I lived in Northern VA till just recently so am familiar with your paint and your painted furniture when you had it at Lucketts General Store. That being said I would live to get my hands on some of your paint too! Thanks for the opportunity to Winn some beautiful things!
Your paint, and hemp oil. I would love to give them a try. It does look like a basket of treasures!!!
There’s not a dud item in the bunch, but the alarm clock is my favorite…..because it just makes me feel good to look at it. 🙂
What a fantastic give away! I think the hemp sheet and the ironstone piece would be my fave!!
Good luck indeed!
Especially since the contest ends in three days and I see nowhere to enter it!
Perhaps this is only for “other bloggers”?
Oh def the MMS paint I’ve been dying to try. Thanks for this chance!! Jane12734@aol.com
Marion, As I read this I was almost getting sick with excitement at what you are offering!!!
I have collected a couple a pieces of furniture to start working on as soon as I empty a space for myself , which I have been working on , so all the paint is beyond belief and the next best thing as strange as it seems is the clock. LOL I know , right!! But I have been looking for one for the last year just LIKE THAT and I can not find one. I have one of your latest books and that has been keeping me going but winning this would start a whole new avenue of creativity for me. Thank you for your generosity
Wanda
What a fun giveaway. I got most excited when I saw the Parsons West brush. The key to a great finished project is a good brush.
Wow. Thanks for this opportunity to win all this. Every item in the box is something special! The little alarm clock kind of spoke to me though, so I’ll pick that as my favorite. The fact that it says Clangor on the face cracked me up. I’m so not a morning person. 🙂
I love everything in the giveaway box! The small dish with the blue flowers would be my favorite.
Thanks for the chance to win.
Oh NO! I see that I should enter my fave item! Well, it would be the hemp sheet. No, no, the compote; no, no, the ironstone! Egad how does one pick just one!
I plan to retire next spring and the milk paint would be something I am very interested in trying.
I really love your blog and all your projects are just beautiful. I love all the items and hope to win.
I got so excited as I was reading this! I love everything… the ironstone dish is my favorite pretty thing and the paint the most practical. I have lots of projects waiting for that paint. Thank you. You are very inspiring.
amazing…thank you for such a generous gift….lovely!
The blue and white compote is just too sweet.
Oh, I would love a hemp sheet! Any one of those items would be wonderful, but to receive all of them will be an incredible gift for one lucky person! Thank you, Marian, for all the ways you’ve inspired me. Keep up the good work! Thank you!
I would love to have one of your books and the covered Ironstone dish is beautiful. I so enjoy reading your blog and getting ideas. Thank you for all the work that you put into your blog.
How in the world can you ask us to pick a favorite?? The blue and white compote, the tote, the ironstone dish and the alarm clock make my heart sing – but the assorted paint and accessories are just amazing. I love your wonderful, creative, bright home and how you put it together as you could – and I would love to paint over our dark wood buffet to make it something that I would love. If forced, I would have to choose the milk paint as my favorite!
Like everyone else, I think all the items are fabulous! Choosing just one is impossible, but I guess it would be the sheet! 🙂
ohhh…that little covered Ironstone Dish to add to my Ironstone collection!!! GREAT giveaway!!!!
chris from Midwest cottage and finds
Wow, what a give away. I love the blue and white compote and have been wanting to try your paint.
Thanks so much.
You put together a wonderful package! I’d love to win any of it but the compote really catches my eye. Thank you for hosting such a great giveaway!
Omg as much as everything in the box takes my breath away for so many different reasons, I am to clocks what you are to ironstone: obsessed ? so the alarm clock makes me very excited! Though, I won’t lie, I have also been itching to get that brush and try it out too yikes! I’m having a hard time
Choosing just one!! Also the box
How thoughtful of you!! It all would be a true gift…appreciated, treasured and oh so exciting to open, but as I have never tried your paint, I would have to pick MMS paint as my favorite!!!
Your book “Inspired You” , so amazing.
What a lovely and generous giveaway. Wow, hard to choose between all that is featured, love thie items you include that gives one the opportunities to do some work on projects with quality items.
Must admit the blue/while compote is pulling at heart strings as it is a fave color combination so the fave seems to be between the compote and the bake lite knives. It is a great looking group of items and fun to stroll trough again. Thanks for offering the giveaway…………………Mary
Oh my gosh, I have to pick one? With such fabulous items, I would really love getting the milk paint and being able to select my colors. Thank for your generosity and for this wonderful opportunity. I shall keep my fingers crossed!
What an amazing give away, any reader would be so lucky to receive even just one of these items! As for my favorite, it has to be the covered ironstone dish. I have been so inspired by your gardening posts of late, and would love to find a cute little green plant to put in it (and hope that my green-ish thumb would keep it alive)!!! Thanks so much for the chance to win!
The whole box is amazing but my favorite would be the paint products. I’ve been wanting to try your milk paint and this would sure give me the chance to try all kinds of projects!
Wow, a very generous giveaway indeed – especially offering it out to internationals too!
The paint – it’s hard to get here in NZ. And the new European colours are not here in NZ at all. I would love to try them all!
Also, the hemp sheet. Man, do I have projects for that sheet 🙂
Hmmmmmm, oh my! Milk Paint. No, Glitter. No, Milk Paint. No, Glitter. OH MY! Hmmmm, Glitter Milk Paint. That’s it! I would love buckets of Milk Paint in Lucketts Green. Oh my.
Thanks for the opportunity to enter your contest. And, above all, thank you for being the amazing and talented Miss Mustard Seed. Xoxo
How can I choose a favorite? The paint, the hemp sheet, the blue and white compote, the Ironstone dish, and on and on?. This is such a generous gift! Whoever the winner is will be so fortunate!
I love the iron stone, and the knives, and the compote! Jennifer
This is amazing!! I love all the items, but I really want to try out slipcovering with a hemp sheet!!
I just love the ironstone dish. I don’t have any but have wanted one for the longest time. What a wonderful giveaway! Thank you for the opportunity to win such a nice gift!!
The the paint!!!!!
Oh my goodness! I can’t even imagine winning!! Every single item is a wonderful gift In and of itself. My favorite would have to be the antique hemp sheet. I have been really wanting one but could not bring myself to spend the money. I would reupholster my wing back chair. You are such an inspiration. Thank you so much for this opportunity!!
The paint!!! That was hard to choose!!!!
Wow this is fantastic – I would love the old fashion clock but the milk paint would be a close second choice!! Thanks for the chance to win these wonderful prizes.
I’d love them all, but keep going back to the hemp sheet. Guess I’m just a textile girl at heart!
Ohh my favorite item would be the knives! Thank you for the opportunity!
Oh my goodness! This should be multiple choice!! I’m so excited and I’m using too many exclamation points. Anyway, I love white ironstone!!! I love all ove it, but the ironstone had me drooling. Thanks for the chance to win, that is very generous of you. Good luck to everyone!
What an awesome giveaway!!!
I love each and every item in the box and if I won each and every item would be used.
But my very favorite is the tote box. Oh! the things you could do with that one thing.
Thanks for the givaway for your generous gift.
Oh my gosh!…everything in there could be my favorite. Each item reminds me of YOU. If I HAD to choose just one, it would have to be the clock…love it.
I’ve never wanted to win something so bad in my life! Ha! What a generous gift, and any one would be lucky to win it! I am head over heels with your paint, and would be thrilled to have more. Thank you for the chance to win!
Thank you for this amazing giveaway. I’m excited about the European paint colors, they’re all so pretty.
Marion what a wonderful gift. You are too generous. I love your blog and would very much like to try the MMS milk paint.
A really hard choice but as we can’t get either the hemp oil or milk paint in Cape Town those would have to be my favorites.
This is an amazing and generous giveaway. It’s hard to chose one thing but I will have to go for the paint. I would love to try the new European colors.
Oh, my! My heart is beating so fast! How do I pick a favorite? I would love to slipcover a chair with the hemp sheet (my first), I love the blue and white compote, the ironstone…..Winning would be like Christmas, birthday, anniversary and Mothers Day all rolled into one!
You make it hard to choose! I have been wanting to try your new line of paintbrushes, so I think the parsons-west brush would be my item of choice!
What a great collection of things in a give away! Thanks Marian!
I don’t have any ironstone so that would be my favorite piece and the start to my collection!
All of the items are wonderful, but my favorite is the blue and white compote. I love blue and white and this would be a lovely addition to the pieces I have. I am always inspired at the many ways you use this color scheme in your decorating. Thank you for sharing with us.
Oh, what a wonderful assortment! I have an extensive blue & white collection.. with many pieces from friends, would love this one from you… and the alarm clock is darling!
Wow! What a great gift…I’m a big fan of your milk paint so I’d love to try the brush – but, I think the ironstone might be my fave! As often as I stalk our local thrift/vintage shops I’ve never found any. Thanks for the chance 🙂
I would love the antique hemp sheet. I have a new-to-me (old) chair that I’ve been wanting to re-upholster.
What an amazing giveaway! I think the ALL the items would be perfect to use to finally put together our guest room in our new house. I’m going with a vintage farmhouse theme and could use just about every item in this box. I’m using your milk paint for the first time this weekend! I’m redoing my office chair in Marzipan. I can’t wait to share how it turns out 🙂 Thank you for being such an inspiration!! Liz http://www.4evermysweetpea.com
Absolutely the paint… wanting to take the plunge and try MMS milk paint on a white chest… although what’s not to like?? Love it alllll!!!!
There are so many amazing items in this giveaway. I love them all, but since I have to choose a favorite….the blue and white compote is a beauty!!!
I can’t tell if you got my first entry because I don’t see it listed. So here goes – the magical blue and white compote is my absolute favorite.
OMword, I can’t possibly choose only one favorite thing! It’s all wonderful! If I had to choose, I would say the paint products. No, the compote. No wait, the ironstone! I love it all!!! ♡♡♡
I have been dying to get my hands on one of your antique hemp sheets… I have a gorgeous chair that use to be my Grandma’s that I have been wanting to make over… plus I have a couple Christmas projects coming up that your glass glitter would look gorgeous on! Not to mention that my new antique writing desk would look great in Arabesque! So many great things in one little giveaway!
Would love the Parsons brush though the clock is awesome too! Hard to choose one item since I’d love to experiment with milk paint too.
I am so excited about this giveaway! I absolutely LOVE ironstone, and initially would say that would be my favorite item (it has such a great shape!), BUT….I am itching to paint a buffet in my dining area, so the paint is actually the thing that excites me the most right now! Thank you for the chance!! ?
Wow, just one favorite item. That is hard. I’ve been wanting to try the hemp oil and have the perfect tabletop to try it on.
What a generous giveaway! I would love to try the MMSMP European Colours, but I love textiles so the hemp sheet would be wonderful, but the blue and white compote dish is darling ….. It’s too hard to pick just one! Thank you.
I would love to try a hemp sheet . This is a great giveaway!!
ME ME ME ME ME ME ME – PICK ME! 🙂 What an incredible giveaway. I’ve never won a blog giveaway before and this one is the best. I love ALL the things in the basket and the MMS products are great but I love the ironstone because I can NEVER find it around where I live inexpensively. I’m in hard core renovation mode in my house right now and could so so so use these items. Good luck everyone!
Since I already KNOW I love the paint & hemp oil, I would love the antique hemp sheet most because I don’t know where I would find one otherwise. EVERYTHING is a wonderful prize, but put altogether, it’s fantastic! Thanks for the chance!
All of the above. They are all great. I guess I’d have to say the dish just because my whole house is covered in blue and white.
Although all the offerings make me swoon with delight, I think I’d have to vote for the MMS paint, because I’m dying to try it, but still nervous. Winning this would take away the risk AND excuses! You are such a sweetie to be so generous!
My favorite item is the milk paint because i have been wanting to try it for a long time. thank you
Everything in the gift is wonderful, but my absolute favorite is the blue and white compote. I would be in hog heaven if I won your wonderful gift.
Oooooh the big bottle of hemp oil for me!! I go through it like crazy!!! What an exciting box of prizes! It’ll feel like Christmas morning for the lucky winner!!
Hi Marian,
What a huge giveaway! I love all of the items you’re giving away and especially your paints. I just gave a friend your website info on the Milk paint for the chippy look and your tutorials yesterday. I’m loving your new journey and can relate to it well as I have done a similar turn around with my own passion. I realized what I have been doing for the last couple of years is not the true me. I love decorating, furniture, accessorizing, painting furniture and all of those things you do that make a house a home. So now I am turning back toward my new love. Home decorating.
As much as I love everything I would choose the sheet! Thanks for the opportunity.
Marion…It’s a toss up between the alarm clock and the blue and white Compote. I must say I really like your style… You are an inspiration.
They are ALL my favorites! But since I just bought your book, I will say the Hemp Oil.
I would love it all but the little ironstone dish would be my favorite!
I am most intrigued by the Hemp Oil. I’ve seen your before and after pictures when you have used it on old wood and would love to try it myself. It looks amazing.
A close second is the compote, but it all looks good. I would love to win and try all of your products.
After 16 years of marriage, my hubby and I just bought our first house. I am so in love with it!… but we are still working with a lot of hand-me-down furniture, so the MMS milk paint would be a blessing!!!
No contest for my favorite item in this giveaway! I’m dying to try a slipcover project with a HEMP SHEET. They just look fabulous. I was surprised by the amount of texture at the Market on Chapel Hill, and loved the oyster color. Fingers, toes and eyes crossed that my birthday gift (October 15) this year is “Miss Mustard Seed in a box”!
You have turned me on to the ironstone, but the antique compote is lovely? Maybe the paint would be the best? As much as I would love EVERYTHING in the box, I like the idea that the paint would get me started learning to appreciate painting furniture. Thanks for the offer!
The blue and white compote as a “finished product” that doesn’t include any work, but the hemp oil for “projects”! Thanks
Wow…that’s a tough choice! The knives remind me of my mom…she used to have those. I’m a clock fanatic…have at least one in every room…love all different kinds. They’re fun to decorate with and around!
Since I have an old dry sink which is “next in line” to be finished, I’d have to say the paint. I bought your “Inspired you” book for myself about 6 mo ago. I’m not a reader but read that baby from cover to cover! It’s my go to reference book when I’m painting. Whoever wins it will be like Christmas for them :). Good luck to everyone! 🙂
It’s hard to choose, but I would love the antique hemp sheet for scanning and using as layered textures on my artwork in Photoshop, as well as for embroidery.
I love your blog and reading about what you’re up to, it’s quite inspiring!
This is a toss up. All of the items are all so unique to your style and have so much character. They would all be at home in my house! I am most curious about the ironstone piece and the paint collection. Would love to tackle a fall paint project as the months get cooler and my gardening comes to an end!
Oh, my..is it Christmas?….my Birthday?…nope too early for those…It is an opportunity for a wonderful giveaway! You are always so generous with us, your readers…giving us all this great DIY advice and showing us how we, too can do these things ourselves. I only wish I had some of your energy! I have an old gateleg table in need of Hemp Oil and I am going to make some little Putz houses, so could use the glitter! My favorite, however…would be the ironstone…oh, no, the Hemp sheet to cover the old chair…oh…no…it has to be the little silver clock…love the name..Clangor…I bet it would really CLANG to get me up and going in the morning~so that I could get at my projects…Thanks a zillion for inspiring me and all you faithful followers…Keep up the great work, Marion!!
The hemp sheet – I’m getting ready to make slip covers!
Be still my heart…. If I had to pick just one thing it would be your Inspired By You book. You truthfully inspire me every day, Marian. Everything in the giveaway I would love to have but the book would be an inspiration. Thank you for doing this!
Everything is so cool! It’s impossible to pick only one favorite. The choice of paints would be awesome. I love the crate. But my favorite of my favorites would probably be the covered ironstone.
First let me thank you for your generosity. I couldn’t believe that as I kept scrolling the “box” kept getting fuller. My next thank you is for including international fans- as a Canadian follower I am so often disappointed by a “continental US only” restriction. I am choosing the hemp sheet because that is something I don’t have easy access to or feel that I could spend the money on. I am already a huge milk paint fan – I have done many projects with it. I love all the new colours, but haven’t tried them all yet so obviously would love the paint as well .Again a big than you from a Canadian cousin:)
~ Susan
I think perhaps the sample packs of paint….I LOVE to try new colors and what better way? I bought 6 trial packs from the Lucketts market this spring and have had so much fun working with them. I haven’t tried any of the European collection though so would really enjoy seeing them in action!
Oooooh!! The Hemp Oil! I go through it like crazy – use it on EVERYTHING!! That is my practical favorite….but the gift that will make my heart go pitty pat the most? The milk paint color samples!! To be able to try each new color for free? Wheeeeeeee!!!!
oops **thank” you lol
What a giveaway!! Wow! I don’t know if I can name a favorite item. I love them all! I might have to say the covered ironstone dish…but I’m just starting to try out my milk paint and I love it! It would be fabulous to have more colors. Thanks for the opportunity!
Everything looks wonderful! But if I had to choose one item it would be the hemp sheet, my heart skipped a beat when I saw the hemp sheet!!
Anyone would be lucky to win just ONE of those items in the giveaway box! I’m interested in the copy of your book! It will most certainly give me inspiration and I love having something that I can continue to reference from for years to come! Thank you!
How exciting! The paint would be my favorite. Even tho I’ve been following you for awhile, I’ve only been painting for a little while and using Annie Sloan, sorry! I’m ready to try your milk paint ! What a great give away! I hope it’s mine!
What a wonderful assortment of items you are giving away! I would love to win any one of them, but my favorite would be one of your books. I love your blog! You are such an inspiration.
There isn’t anything on that incredible list that I wouldn’t be thrilled to receive but that wooden box really pulled on my heart strings. Thanks for the chance to win!!
I would love to try out the paint!! Thanks for the chance to win 🙂
I would love the glass glitter and milk paint. I really need to paint some items/walls in my house to spruce it up. I have an old buffet from my aunt that really needs some TLC.
The glass glitter is very intriguing to me.
All of these items would be amazing! I am most excited to try milk paint though. I am always meaning to order some and try it out on some pieces I have stashed away. But being in Northern California I have an extremely hard time finding old ironstone pieces that I would not have to rob a bank to buy. So the ironstone would be a treasured item!
Paint and paint brush! I have never used chalk paints and would love to try!!!
I have been wanting to try milk paint for so long but can’t afford the cost to get started. This would be so amazing. Everything would be great but I guess the paint would be my favorite!
It all looks great, but my favorite would be the paint. Thanks for the chance to win.
oh my gosh! trying your PAINT and BRUSH would be a thrill for me! and then to have a piece of your ironstone . . . .well (swoon) I may never recover!
THANKS MARIAN! your posts daily lift me up . . . . xo
Love it all, but the box/tote is my favorite!
We are getting ready to remodel our main floor so I would be excited about the paints. But, would love all of it!!
Thanks for offering this goodie basket!! Good Luck to all who enter!!
The blue and white compote is beautiful. That would be my favorite item. So many great things in this giveaway. You will make someone very happy!
I’m obsessed with your paint so I would love to get my hands on the European colors!
You are such a blessing to the world with everything you do. I admire you and so happy to watch your rise to the top. God has a purpose for you for sure. I would love to try your paints because you make it all look so easy.
GAAAH!! I fell in love love with the clock and the tote!! Having your book would be inspiring too!Such a fun give-away!
I am just starting to get into chalk/milk painting furniture. I have one dresser done so far. I would LOVE your Parsons West brush. Having the right tools is essential to being successful and having a great outcome. It was hard to choose though; everything is just SO lovely 🙂
It would have to be the glitter because the world can always use a little more sparkle!
I LOVE everything in the box but would really love to try more of your paint colors
I love all your blue and white! I’ve been collecting blue china, glassware and pottery for a long time. I see that color showing up more and more in my wardrobe as well. Love your blog.
Oh, my goodness. That delectable blue and white compote is just to die for. I could seriously start drooling over it. Of course, everything you mentioned is simply wonderful. Thank you for the giveaway !
WOW ~ What a lovely giveaway! Everything in the box is amazing, but anything ironstone speaks to my heart so the covered dish is my favorite! Amy M.
If I were to win, my favorite item would be the antique blue and white compote. I feel as though we must be related because you do so many things as I would do them and we share a lot of interests?
Marian, this “dish alcoholic” would LOVE to add the ironstone dish to her collection. THANKS!!!!!!!!
My husband is building me a china display cabinet so I would love to have some milk paint to try out on it.
I like the sheet!
I am OBSESSED with the blue & white compote. It would be the perfect touch to my house. 🙂
Oh my…how can I pick just one thing?!!! I guess if I had to, I would pick the hemp sheet. I so would love to have one (or more), but could never justify that cost into my budget. Wish me luck!
So hard to choose! My heart really does beat fast for some blue and white china though, so if I have to choose it would be the antique blue & white compote. <3
I adore the ironsone covered dish, because it was ‘Made in England’. So little is now made here, we import nearly everything, and sadly, most of the potteries which made ironstone, including Meakin, have closed or gone out of business. When I think of it’s long journey to America, a very long time ago, I feel how amazing it is that it has survived not only the journey but daily use for all those years. Yes, ‘Made in England’ means quality! It would be great to have that dish back home (and all the other wondeful items in your generous giveaway) xxx
I would love it all but would love to win the paint so I could try it on my treasures.
I love the blue and white compote but I am so curious about hemp sheets and the books would be such a wonderful treat and then there is the paint and the amazing clock. I think it is such a generous thing for you to do because your blog is already a blessing to so many people! I love
the projects and the fact that your husband and mom and dad are involved with your business too. God bless you Miss Mustard Seed!
Oh my goodness. My favorite item would have to be the hemp sheet. I have been dying to get my hands on some hemp and reupholster a chair that I have. Thanks so much!
Oh my gosh it’s all so great, choose just one? I guess it would be the paint since I’m learning how to use it and getting ready to do my front door!
Someone is going to be very blessed! Your blog is such an inspiration, thank you!
Oh man, it’s so hard to choose a favorite amongst these!! I’ve been dying to play with your paint for a while now so to have so many colors to choose from would be crazy fun, but that ironstone and alarm clock are just adorbs. Thank you so much for this, and for all the inspiration!!! I hope I get the courage to actually speak to you at Haven next year 😉
As a textile lover, the hemp sheet would be no.1 on the list. Thanks!
I absolutely love using your paint. I would like to try the glass glitter!!
Wow! What a box full of treasures. I love the coverd i ronstone bowl and everything in the box but I would love to have the samples of the European colors to play around with. I ordered your paintbrush recently used it for the first time, I really like it. What a fabulou ggiveaway.
The covered ironstone dish would be my favorite. The fact that it is a piece from your collection makes it all the more special.
What a fun give away! I have followed you for the last few years and feel you have given me the final push in changing my home’s color scheme from brick reds and golds to my favorites being blues and a bit of green! It will be a slow process but I have started in our bedroom and am loving seeing the blues…thank you!
I think my favorite would be your antique blue and white compote!
Wow! What an amazing and generous gift. It’s all so awesome! The thing I’d most look forward to at this time would be the MMS paint. I’ve been dying to give them a try. I’m working very slowly on my mother’s home and we are on a very slim budget and I really want to try them out.
Holy Cow,what a generous give-away! I love it all, but the paints and supplies would be just the ticket in getting me started in completing some furniture projects.
Thank you!
Kristen W. in Atlanta
Such a generous give-away! While I love your milk paint, I’d be very excited to get an antique hemp sheet! I use hemp fabrics to create my own products and every time I see you mention the antique hemp sheets I think I need to get my hands on one to compare vintage hemp with contemporary! Thanks for sharing this gift with someone in your community.
I love it all, but I have to say my fave is the compote. What a wonderful giveaway!
Dear Miss Mustard Seed,
A couple of years ago, I carved a snowflake mirror to dress up my studio for the holidays. You can see the process, and the finished mirror here (please cut me some slack though, I’m just a DIYer, not a pro):
https://www.facebook.com/karen.faasse/media_set?set=a.4582296109116.2172507.1043364793&type=3
I know, it’s rough and primitive, but I LOVE this mirror…except for the finish, which is just a flat white paint that was left over after painting my gramma’s living room (Horrors! Now you know why I read your blog…I need help!).
So, as much as I would absolutely cherish each and every lovely item in your MMSIAB giveaway (and you have picked some WONDERFUL items), I already know my favorite will be the GLASS GLITTER! Which, after refinishing the mirror with MMSMP in Mora (your thoughts on this color choice?), I would use to highlight some of the edges on the mirror.
Refinishing this mirror has been on my to-do list since I mucked it up with that hideous leftover white paint. So now that I’ve said my plan out loud (sort of), I guess I’ll have to go forward with my refinishing project, even if I don’t win! So even if I don’t win, your thoughts on paint colors would be very much appreciated! 🙂
Thanks for the daily inspiration.
Karen
Oooh! My favourite items are the 3 quarts of MMS Milk Paint, and the 6 samples. I live in South Africa, and cannot get your paint here, so I would love, love, love to win this giveaway to be able to experience your paint, as I read about it so much on the web, and eagerly await your blogs in my inbox! I so hope that I win!!
I would love the hemp sheet so that I could try a fun sewing project. The glitter would be fun for the holidays too!
I would have to choose the alarm clock. That way I would wake up early to spend the day with all the pretties in the box. I can’t imagine a more fun day!
An awesome way to begin using your products….would truly love to have some of the goodies you are offering, I know who ever wins would be thrilled. Maybe the winner could post what project the used your milk paint on! Still this is GREAT!!!!
The Paint!!! I just used milk for the first time two weeks ago and had so much fun! My husband and I just got married and moved into a new house so now I want to paint EVERYTHING! hehe 🙂
side note…I got to meet you and take a selfie at Chapel Market! so fun!!
Wow! Great giveaway! The package would be like Christmas, but after I was finished oohing and ahhhing I am pretty sure I would be really liking the covered ironstone dish. I’m an ironstone collector and would love the size and shape of your piece to add to my collection. 🙂
I believe my favorite thing to win would be your book, Inspired You. I am sure it would be inspirational to quit stalling or to finish up projects that I have started!! Thank you for the opportunity to win all of these lovely things!
Wow what a great giveaway! I have always wanted to try your paint. That would be so awesome I also love the blue and white dish, that is beautiful! Great giveaway! Thanks for the chance.
Choose my favorite? I like them all. My colors are blue and white, and I love old silver. I have been wanting to order a brush and hemp oil. I guess my favorites would be the hemp sheet because I have never felt one before and the wooden tote.
First, your paint. I have wanted to try your paint since it came out. Second, I love glitter!!! Third, Your book. There is just about nothing that I don’t like about your blog and have enjoyed reading and learning all that you share. Thank you for the chance to win.
I love reading your blog and it is so nice of you to offer this giveaway.
The alarm clock is my favorite. I’ve been looking for one just like this one. It’s perfect.
Love! Love! Love …..the knives!
the paint would be my favorite!
The MMS glass glitter! I have purchased it for craft projects in the past and it just makes everything look magical – like it is covered in fairy dust! I love it!
Woo-hoo!!! Love to have 3 bags of milk paint and all the paint “accessories”!
Oh how I would dearly love the blue and white compote! But I agree with the others, there isn’t a dud in the box.
Awesome giveaway!! I would pick your milk paint, I’ve been wanting to try it for awhile!
Everything is lovely! The blue and white antique compote is calling my name though!!
I live in Canada and we often don’t get the opportunity to partake in giveaways, so thank you!! I would love the hemp sheet. I have admired your use of the hemp sheets in all of your upholstery projects. Love, love your paint line.
Thank you for the opportunity to win such an amazing giveaway.
I have been dying to try that brush! I have a special project brush that I guard with my life. NO ONE is allowed to use it but me! ha! I’d be the same way with this brush, only more so! Nothing better than the feel of a good brush while you’re painting. But that compote!!!! OMG! Absolutely gorgeous! I’ve started a blue and white collection. My brother in law went to his old house that had been torn down. There was still a shed that stood in the back and he went in and found a very old tea kettle hanging on the wall. It was blue and white!! He automatically thought of me! It was rusted and covered in so much dirt but I loved it!! So that tea kettle needs a friend! The compote would fit in nicely!
Oh my lanta! How could I pick just one of these things as my favorite! Impossible…it can’ be done. I love it all.
Christmas will come early to the lucky girl who wins this.

I’ve been reading your website for years, but haven’t had the confidence to try milk paint. I’m so afraid of spending the money and not liking the end result. I have a bench in my sewing room that I think would be a perfect starter project, so I think that would be my favorite item(s). But I collect flow blue and ironstone so they would be nice additions to my collection too! Hey you know what? Everything you are including makes me smile, so I think it would feel like an early Christmas to me if I was the lucky winner. So I’ll just sit here and dream…… 🙂
Love, love, love the blue/white compote!!!!!
Thank you, so much, Marian, for offering this very generous giveaway. I love everything you’ve included but if I won, the clock would be my favorite piece. I love it’s shape and those numbers……
Wow, how generous! How could you choose a favorite with all the goodies you have there!! Would have to say the paint first but if I could have a second choice I love the covered iron stone dish! Thanks for the chance to win all this fab stuff!!
I would love to win the milk paint and I would be super excited to try hemp oil.
Gee! it’s hard to pick just one; they’re all beautiful. I think my favorite, favorite comes down to the compote. They are hard to find at reasonable prices nowadays and it would like great on my Thanksgiving table! What a treasure and it really represents your style. Keep up the great and inspiring work!
It is difficult to choose just one favorite, but I will have to go with the blue and white compote. I have loved all things blue and white since childhood. Following your blog has only reinforced this love.
Thank you for your daily inspiration!

I would love that container of MMS Glass Glitter in Tiara (silver) – I’m still a ‘glitter’ gal.
We are just starting to renovate our small 1918 farm house in Michigan!! (we have a lot to do.) I just finished a mmsp 101 class and can’t wait to get started on several projects with in the house as well as some furniture and windows I’ve been collecting for the past year. I would love the paints and hemp oil but can see so many of the other items in the house as well. The clock in the bedroom, the compote in the bathroom with soap in it, and the box in the kitchen filled with mason jars and silverware. The possibilities are endless! Thank you for the chance to dream! Good luck to everyone who enters!!
Th paint would be would be my favorite. It would help me get started on painting my former one room schoolhouse. 🙂
What a ginormous gift box! Thank you for the opportunity! I would love the compote. I have a mini-collection of pedestal cake plates and this would look super on top! Also, if you don’t mind me asking, what are you all doing at the glitter workshop?
The anitque hemp sheet, but who can pick just one?
Oh, the paint! All the other prizes would be like icing on a cake!
Just Wow! You are so generous. Just one item would have been awesome but all this is just remarkable. I would LOVE to have samples of your European Colours and the glass glitter…can’t pick between them. I would use them together on something. Also…so happy for you and your success…it is much deserved 🙂
All I can say is each and every one of the items in the box is a winner! Being that I am just starting out with the painting, upholstering, staging, collecting and selling, I would be honored to receive any one of the items listed!!! I am a late bloomer but once I found your blog, you have inspired me to do what I love and (knock on wood) it has been a success so far. I would use and treasure each item! I just ordered your glass glitter and will be ordering your paint brush soon. I would love to try your milk paint and your waxes. I love your ironstone and little blue and white dish as well as the bake lite. I have your book on my wish list for Christmas. The hemp sheet I would die for.
Thank you Marian!!!
The lovely ironstone dish….thank you for the fantastic giveaway!!!
Would love to win; I just love the look that milk paint, wax, and hemp oil creates! So beautiful! I think the paint would be the biggest treat for me, although I love everything else too!
I am really excited with your colors. I love the samples of the new European colors. Thank you for inspiring me!!
Honestly, I love everything. But, I do love the white tureen and the blue and white compote. I love your blog and look forward to each and every posts….so much inspiration.
I can’t pick one favorite! I love the ironstone bowl and the compote, but I haven’t tried the paint yet and want that badly too! What a great gift! Thanks!
I love it all! I’d be super excited to finally try some of your MMS products, and I love the alarm clock and ironstone and wooden crate, but I think I’d be most excited about Inspired You. Actually, I’m adding it to my Christmas list right this second.
There is not a single item I wouldn’t love to have – but the paint would be the most fun!
It was nice to see you again for the third time at the Market at Chapel Hill. I bought your green tote, the metal green “comb & brush” tin and I needed more hemp oil. I love them,
I would love to win this giveaway. So many wonderful treasures. I love it all but I think I would be the most excited to receive the hemp sheet. I saw them at Chapel Market but were a bit pricey for me. Thanks for the opportunity and chance to win.
I would love the hemp sheet. Your blog is always interesting – you give so freely that which you have learned through your experience.
I really get excited reading your blog. I have some milk paint, but would love the idea book that explains how to do things and has pictures.
Although there are many great items, I still have not tried chalk paint, so my favorite item would be that. 🙂 Thanks for the awesome give away!
I think all of them are fabulous…but if I have to pick one? Mm, probably the MMS European Samples. However, I would be totally thrilled to get JUST one of any of them. You have inspired and encouraged so many people! Thank you.
Wow! That is such an awesome giveaway! My favorite would be the MMS Milk Paint. I have not used milk paint before, only chalk paint (Annie Sloan). I love the colors you have to offer!
My favorite is the Hemp Wood Oil Finish. We’re building our kitchen cabinets and this would be a great finish! Thanks so much for the opportunity! Good luck to all!
I absolutely love the antique blue and white compote, (actually I think I love all things blue and white!) I live in California, and am trying to figure out how to attend one of your paint workshops. I love all you do. Keep it up!
How gracious of you Marian. I love your blog. Your hard work and persistence make me think I can do anything:) AT least try to anyway…
My husband and I are always working on projects and I have really wanted to try all your marvelous products, so for me all the painting items would be so fun. Thank you for this opportunity…
Wow! I would love to try the paint! It’s been on my list for a long time. Thank you for the giveaway!
I am absolutely in love with the charming alarm clock (and, well, frankly everything else too!). <3
What a fabulous giveaway! Love everything in it. I would really like to try that paintbrush and your milk paint..
Oh this is such a lovely giveaway! I can think of no less than a million things to do with each item, but I am in love with the hemp sheets! I have a pair of channel back chairs in my garage that have been begging for a makeover. Hemp sheets, hemp sheets, come home to me!!!
I would love every item! But most of all, I really want to try out the milk paint, and so I’d be thrilled with that!
Wow, so many great things! I would love eveything but the clock would be my favorite. Thanks for being so generous. I love your blog!!
Wow! It is hard to choose a favorite, but my heart immediately went to the wooden tote. I love old and wooden.
Oh the paint the paint how happy I would be with the paint!
It’s all so wonderful, it’s hard to choose just one thing, first I was going to say the sheet, but then the paint and supplies are awesome too! Thanks so much for the giveaway!!
I love everything in the box!! I guess, if you are making me, I would say my favorite item would be the hemp sheet. My birthday is Thursday so this would be an amazing birthday present! 🙂
You’re making this hard, Miss Mustard Seed! Pick one item? As I was reading your blog today, I thought each gift was a separate giveaway. But NO, you are putting all this goodness into one basket!!! It’s very hard to select just one item, but I think trying your milk paint would be at the top of my list because I haven’t ventured into that world yet. Oh my, this is a tremendous gift you’re giving. Thank you for your generosity!
My favorite is either the hemp sheet or the glass glitter. I haven’t tried silver.
All the pieces in the box look fun and inspiring, but I would love to try the milk paint as I have only used chalk paint in the past. I have so many projects for my daughter’s upcoming wedding and this would be a great opportunity to try something new!
I would be so excited to give the paint a try!
Not sure I can pick just one favorite…can the whole box count as one? I love that sweet, little clock. I have already thought of at least 4 projects I could do with the hemp sheet (to include a ruffled table runner and/or a pillow…if there’s enough). I have 4 pieces of furniture in my garage and one very large armoire in my office that could use some love from your paints and brushes. I can go on and on. Fingers crossed:) Thanks for offering this up to whoever wins!
Oh my! I covet everything in the box! My fave, though, is the ironstone covered dish because to me that is Miss Mustard Seed. And it’s a tie with the hemp oil, which I want/need but haven’t yet ordered.
WOW! What an incredible assortment!! I love MMS and your style, so anything would be awesome, but without a doubt, my favorite thing would be the paint samples! I’ve been wanting to try MMS paint for such a long time and have many pieces of furniture I’d like to make “my own”, but have been intimidated by the cost of everything and getting started. This would be perfect! Thank you for offering this up to all your lucky readers, as well as inspiring us all with your blog! 🙂
What a fantastic, generous giveaway! The antique blue & white compote would be my favorite. I love how the line on the base looks a little blurred and how delicate the pattern is – beautiful!
The paint… the glitter. No, the paint. Okay… the glitter.
It’s so hard!
I know I love the things you included in this amazing gift………BUT……..I hate to admit, I have never tried milk paint. I love painting and all the glazing, antiquing & distressing techniques, it is instant gratification. I have painted and refinished a lot of furniture and decorative items over the last 30 plus years for myself and others. So, my favorite gift would have to be the milk paint. I am 65 years old but not too old to try something new.
I really enjoy your blog, photography is also a hobby of mine; your photos inspire me.
I’m 67 year old and agree…never too old. I’m gearing up for starting my own refurbishing business and am so encouraged by MMS and reading your comment. Keep on doing what you love.
I would love every single thing!!! Paint paint paint, would love to try your paint!
Thanks, I really enjoy your posts.
Adore the blue and white compote…adore it!
What a generous and wonderful giveaway! I am a new follower so I don’t know if I could pick just one favorite item. I collect ironstone so, that’s a no-brainer. The free paint would give me the opportunity to try “a bunch” of your wonderful colors. Reading your Chapel Hill post introduced me to your hemp sheets, which sound amazing. Soooo you see it would be almost impossible to choose just one favorite thing.
Oh, Marian.
How generous you are…but you always have been. That’s why you’re blessed!
This “giveaway” is loaded with such wonderful “goodies” it’s like Christmas! I have been wanting to use your products and have two candidates, a Louis IV headboard and a vintage English buffet that is used as an entertainment center. Then there is the hemp sheet. A fixed income has stood in the way. So my favorite: all your paint products, including the hemp oil and wax. Runner-up: hemp sheet (which I may use on my antique oak dining chairs!!!).
Whoever wins will be delighted and then some.
Even though the chances are small, I really want a chance to win. When I tried to comment a few minutes ago, the “I’m not a robot” box was not there when I clicked on “Post Comment.” I looked and can not find my comment so am guessing it did not go through, so I’m trying again. Although I absolutely LOVE all items in the box — they make my heart pitter patter — the paint is probably my favorite because I have been wanting to try it for a long time. It is very thoughtful and generous of you to offer this awesome giveaway. Thank you!!
What a beautiful gift! The six European color samples would be my first choice. Seeing them for real (instead of on a screen) and being able to refinish some small pieces of furniture I just uncovered in the garage would be great fun!
I love reading your blog! Would love any and all of the items in your give-away, but most of all, would love to read your book.
What a tough questions!! I personally would love to have your books…. They have been on my wish list for some time…. Though everything about this giveaway is amazing!
Who could resist an irresistible alarm clock by aptly named Clangor?
I think my favourite thing would be the paint. I just bought some MMS paint this summer, and would like all the colours now!!! LOL
Wow! What a generous giveaway & every single thing is awesome! If I had to pick one thing, it would be the hemp sheet. I’ve never worked with one and would like to try. Thanks for the chance to win!
Wow, it’s what I kept saying as the list went on and on! I love every single item and would be thrilled beyond measure if I was the lucky winner!
Your blog has been such an inspiration to me! ❤️❤️❤️
First of all I love the fact that even though I live outside of USA, I still can enter!!! Thank you so very much for the opportunity!!!
I love it all!!! But I would either choose the blue & white compote &/or the Hemp oil.
Bless you for all the items that could possibly come my way?!?!?
I’m a huge fan of your paints already but I haven’t tried any of the european colors yet. I’ve tried all the others and my home has painted pieces in every room! I love all the items included and would treasure them all but I think a piece of ironstone from you would be the most special. You’ve put together a very generous selection. Thank you for the opportunity to win and publishing such a great blog to read each day. Good luck to all!
It is so hard to pick a favorite since everything is terrific and just up my style alley. But….I would have to say an opportunity to try your paint and brush would be fabulous. Love your blog. Best wishes for continued success.
I just purchased a twin bed from the 1800s. I have refinished dresser and wardrobe in the room also. My treasures over the years. The antique alarm clock would be perfect by the bed. Thank you.
Marion,
I really appreciate you offering such a thoughtful and generous gift, thank-you so much.
My absolute first choice would be your book.
Penny
BE STILL MY HEART!! What an awesome, wonderful, and joyous giveaway!! Thanks and bless you for the opportunity. It is so hard to pick just one thing as my favorite but. I ADORE the covered ironstone dish. Thanks so much for making my day be like Christmas when I open up YOUR daily blog!!
I would love to try the milk paint! Thanks for offering the giveaway!
I have been wanting to try the paint for a long time, but don’t live in an area where it is available. Also, the hemp oil.
It’s impossible to choose only one of these, but I would love to get my hands on the antique hemp sheet. And that ironstone dish, be still my heart!
Thank you for your generosity! The new sample colours of your paint would be fun!
The milk paint, brush, hemp oil and wax puck have me completely intrigued! The ironstone I would add a plant to add to my dining room. What can I say, I like them all! I am, afterall a libra, not making a decision is in my ‘stars’! This is a generous offering….
WOW ~ Christmas comes in October for the blessed Winner of this incredible treasure box!
So very generous and thoughtful of you “Santa” MMS!
I’d feel grateful to win any 1 of these “favorite” things, let alone the whole kit and kaboodle! I don’t look at it as 1 item being favored over another. It’s all in the eye of the beholder. I’d appreciate (and love) any of these “favorites” of yours ~ your blue and white twine will be appreciated and loved just as much as your blue and white compote will be.
Being disabled, I won’t have the opportunity to come to any of your Fair’s, or go antiquing to purchase affordable ironstone or cool vintage items, so I’d be thrilled to own any 1 of these presents!
I did save up for and bought your paint brush, and I’m still saving (living on Disability income, I’ll be saving for a long time) for your Bergere MP and all the other painting items you put in the MMS box. I’m hoping to paint a plant stand and picture frame to add some lovely blue-gray color to my very pale pink bedroom.
My fingers are crossed…
Natalie in Ohio
I would love to experiment with your European colours and glass glitter! Julie in Louisville KY
Hi!
Your excitement and renewed vigour in the blog has been really great to follow along with. I loved looking at the things you put together for the box. Each one gave me ideas of what to do with it but the one that got to me were the knives as they remind me of the ones my grandparents had. Maybe not the most decorative but something with a feeling. Having said that, I’m dying to try the paint but haven’t found a local stockist in the UK yet. So glad you’ve opened this up internationally!
Thanks
Victoria
I love everything, but my favorite would have to be the MMS paint! Thanks!
Wow! I would love the ironstone dish and the blue & white compote. Honestly, I would love every piece in there. What a generous gift!
All of it would be great to win. You don’t see the old ironstone very often around here in north Alabama so my favorite would be the covered ironstone dish.
The paint, of course!
It would be really hard to choose one favorite item. The ironstone was my gut reaction, but I just watched your french chair reupholstery videos because I have some similar chairs to redo. I am going to order a hemp sheet for them when I save the money, so I’m going with the hemp sheet as my final answer! That’s a very generous box of goodies. You’re always so kind.
My wife would love the paint and everything else
Oh Marian! You have outdone yourself………again! What a glorious gift basket. I have searched for 2 years to find ironstone. To no avail……..I would LOVE just one piece and maybe that would get my luck started!!
Wow, so many great choices….MMS Milk Paint would be awesome!
Wow, awesome giveaway! My favorite item would definitely be the alarm clock.
I would love the ironstone! No, I would love your paint. No, I would love the alarm clock. No, no, I would love the hemp sheet. Actually, what I’d love to have is your glass glitter because that’s where I began reading your blog!
WOW, what a neat, generous gift! I would love to try your milk paint!
Oh, hello!!!!
What what a special gift someone will receive! The prize package is simply wonderful filled with so many wonderful possibilities for renewing and refreshing! Thank you…the antique clock and the glitter glass are probably tops for me in this box, but then again everything you have included are my favorites! You have a wonderfully simple clean warm feels-like-home style. You are so sweet to share it with us daily! 🙂
Wow! That’s alot of wonderfuls! LOL!
Oh my! It would be like someone asking me to choose a favorite child! I love everything for different reasons…the books and supplies-my friend and I are planning to attend a class here in utah….the box and sheets because I can’t ever seem to find them around here, the knives and clock are just plain fun and the compote and tureen make me weak in the knees! Shhh….don’t let my kids know!
That fabulous clock! It says “Clangor” right on the face…and it looks like it would wake you up with a nice vintage ‘clanging’ racket! 🙂
I would love to have the paints, and the ironstone is beautiful, but the blue and white compote is the object I most desire!
Only one? But I like so many of the choices! Well, my heartbeat picked up when I saw the blue and white compote. I can picture it filled with gourds, etc. for a fall centerpiece.
Marian…WOW !!!!!Such a gorgeous generous giveway ! my favorite item is the European milk pain sampler…I have not tried those shades …they are beautiful and I think I’d have some fun using them all on one piece of furniture…a sweet ‘milk paint masterpiece’ !!!!! Thank you for the opportunity and all that you do for us ! smiles, Anne
I may have to sell a kidney to fund this habit! I love using MMS milk paint though I’ve only used it with bonding agent at this point and haven’t gone all chippy on a project just yet. But I’m hooked! I just finished a buffet and hutch that with curio (1st coat) and topped with typewriter (2nd coat). Next color: schloss! Though I’m a novice, the videos have helped me in countless ways. Oh how I’d love to win this give-away!!! Thank you, Marian!!!!
I would like anything in your gift box. It would be like an early Christmas gift to open the box and unpack all the wonderful items inside. What made me decide to enter this contest was the sample pack of the milk paints. And to be honest, the fact that they came with the bonding agent and the antiquing wax was frosting on the cake.
Marian,
My favorite thing would be your paint and the brush. I have wanted to try my hand at painting with milk paint, but I’m not a very good DIYer and have always talked myself out of trying it. If I won I wouldn’t have an excuse. 🙂
xo,
Karen
Wow! Such great stuff- it’s hard to choose a favorite! It’s a toss up between the milk paint and the look book. I think the milk paint wins though!
The alarm clock for sure! I love the charm of vintage numbers.
Such a generous gift and a beautiful selection of treasures! Having all those paints to transform my “projects” would be gift in itself..but the hemp sheet is calling to me… I want to feel one!
I’ve been itching to try your milk paint… that would be a great way to get started! I love the wooden tray….
OMG!! All are awesome giveaways!!! But I think hemp sheet would be amazing since I can’t afford buy one!
My favorite item would be the alarm clock. A great way to set time limits for tasks,
I especially love the iron stone covered dish! It would look lovely with my beautiful iron stone platter from my grandmother.
The compote is beautiful! Although I would LOVE it all. I just redid a hutch using Milk Paint for the 1st time! Absolutely Gorgeous! Thank you!
I like everything in the box, including the box. Most excited about trying out some of the paint.
OMG! You listed a lot of really fabulous things!. While I am wanting to paint, I have loved your knives for sorry long, and that hemp sheet-Would love to do something with that. I’ve been reading you for at least 2-3 years now, have your first book, and always love the way I see you grow your business. You are so interesting !
How in the world could I pick just one…I love every single item on the list! Oh my goodness, I’m a little giddy at just the thought of winning/owning any of these goodies!
What an incredible selection. I think we’d all clamor for any ONE of those items. If I must choose…………Ironstone. Want to start a collection.
Sigh…the antique blue and white compote is perfectly beautiful ! I would love to win your amazing and generous giveaway !
Oh Marian! What a luscious giveaway! Now the hard part– choose a favorite item form all those treasures! What a wonderful dilemma–your fabulous paints? or that gorgeous ironstone? the marvelous vintage clock? My solution for selection– a drawing held in my own home!…and the winner is…. the hemp sheet! Yeah! Thanks for the giveaway and your wonderful blog!
The paint and the hemp oil–what a great box!
Everything is great. I’d like the wood tote! The rest would be frosting on the cake!
What a generous giveaway. The transferware compote caught my eye.
I love the compote…no wait, the paint in European colors…and the sheets are fabulous, but I love totes and paint brushes and…as you can see I am having difficulty choosing because it is all wonderful! (And did I mention the glitter…ooh la la)
Your box is loaded with so many exciting things but i would truly like to try your Hemp Oil. Some day i want to buy some of your paints.You know so much and are so talented am glad i found you. This time in my life is a great time to experiment and have fun,i have retired but money isn’t as good,always something but, God is so good to me. Thanks for this privilege.
I would love the milk paint, but the entire package is just wonderful everything! Thanks for the chance to win.
If a choice needs to be made, mine is the silliest of all: the blue and white bakers twine. The memories that such a little roll of twine evokes are so endearing as well as enduring. Memories of my favorite aunt stopping by from the local department store’s bakery or the fabulous Jewish bakery in town. We would be squealing and feasting; nothing like it!! So, along with the other “treasures” that are vintage here in your giveaway, so are my memories conjured up with your offering.
Thanks
Marian, there is no way to put unique you in a box;-)
I can’t decide which item would be my very favorite. Good thing I won’t have to choose (ha, being optimistic). If I had to choose, I’d pick the milk paint . I love all the shades, but I’m experimenting with going for bolder color this year, so I’d want Tricycle, Boxwood, and Trophy. I like Schloss, too. Wow, what a generous give-away! Thanks for giving your readers this chance.
Even though your blog is no longer like opening a daily Christmas present for you, it is still like that to me when I read your newest post. I sometimes go back to re-read older posts, too, especially if I am looking for a tutorial/advice on a look I want. God has certainly gifted you, and you are making an impression for Him in this world. Thanks!
The antique hemp sheet
I love the blue and white compote!
Marian, This was so kind of you to offer such a nice gift package to your followers. I would love any of your milk paints. I’ve only used chalk paint several times and would love to try the milk paint. The antique hemp sheet would be used to make more pillows. I’ve been on a pillow roll lately. Never enough pillows! Love your blog!
What a lovely gift! I would treasure the blue and white compote, I have a teddy bear just waiting to find his place there with holiday ornaments. The Miss Mustard Seed products would be so much fun to experiment with……I have been told the hemp oil is perfect for refreshing the metal on an old toy truck I plan to load with a Christmas tree for the holidays. Thank you for offering this gift. Jp
Hard to choose as they are all wonderful pieces… but If I had to… it has to be the ironstone. Pure heaven!! Fabulous selection!
Oh my, such a wonderful array of gifty things, it’s sooo difficult to chose a favorite, but if I must …. I’d have to say it would be your book!
I have to pick just one favorite? That’s hard. To be honest, I have been dying to try your glitter. But I love everything. And, I can use everything in that box, including the box. 😉
What a super generous giveaway!! Hard to pick one favorite item. I would say the compote and the hemp sheet! I could use both for my thanksgiving table.
What a wonderful give away. I would love to get all the European colours. My son and daughter-in- law have just bought a new home. And arerefinishing old pieces . It would be wonderful to work with Tessa to make their home shine. Thanks for the opportunity to win your products.
Dear Marion, I love your blog, learning new things from each one. Ironstone was my passion! We moved from Illinois (very little to find there) to Florida a few years ago. Not much here either! I left my small collection with one of my daughters and don’t have the heart to ask for it back! After reading your blog I need to make a road trip to your neck of the woods! I would also love to start some furniture painting with your milk paint. So happy that you are living your passion! Lois
I have been using your paints in some of my furniture and i would love to add more colours to my collection.
Well I just love everything! but for sure the book is a plus!!!! <3 you amazing!!!!! <3
So hard to pick just one but I would have to say the blue and white compote. So cute!
Marian:
This is a fantastic giveaway. If I have to pick only one item as my favorite it would be the ironstone covered dish. I hope I win… but in the interest of good sportsmanship, I wish everyone else good luck too.
Wow! choose ONE thing? I can’t – The ironstone, paintbrush, paint, hemp oil, antique box, the books!….. BUT as i am typing it hits me that my most favorite thing is your inspiration – in every post. I am very grateful that I found you!
Ooooh, so hard to choose! I think the milk paint. My 12 year old and I just finished painting my childhood Sears French provincial dresser and now she wants to move on to her desk and a little vanity. I told her we could re-do her room for her 13th birthday and now that’s all she talks about!
I think I’d give her the brush as an encouragement to keep painting – she’s caught the bug 😉
I truly love everything in the gift box, but the blue-and-white compote dish is especially lovely. When I see vintage pieces such as that, I always wonder whose home it once belonged in, what holiday table did it grace, what sweet lady handled it with such care that it survived into the 15th year of the 21st Century . . . and how blessed someone will be to have it in their home. Such a beautiful gift box . . . thanks so much, Marian.
I was first told about you when we went to buy entryway lights at a very cool lighting store. The sales clerk, Lacy, told me to check you out and I have been a fan ever since. I love your style! I’LL give you my top 5 favorite things…these are a few of my favorite things…
1. the Milk Paint! I want to try it on a dresser.
2. The Glass Glitter. I love sparkle!
3. The Hemp Sheet. I want to see what it is all about. I love the texture. Now, how does it feel?
4. I want to read and study your book. I know that it has lots of things to teach me.
5. The love the sweet Blue and White Compote. I didn’t know that I needed one! Until today!
Thank you for the chance to win so very cool things!
I am torn between the hemp sheet and the paint. Truthfully, they are ALL fabulous prizes and whoever wins will be putting them to good use.
I would love to win the compote. Blue and white is my very favorite color combination. Thank you, Marion, for your generosity! Love your blog and seeing what you are up to each time.
My what an awesome giveaway! My one favorite? If I were to be practical I would have to say the glitter, since I use it on my Christmas crafts. But I have never tried the MMS milk paint. I will go with the paint as my favorite.
My favorite thing to win would be your MMS paint. I’ve yet to try it though I have a small bottle of the hemp oil that I adore. Oh and the hemp sheet would be amazing to touch and feel.
Actually everything in the wooden box looks great, but my favorite would be the blue and white compote. That could be used in so many ways, to add style to a little side table, some fancy little soaps in a powder room, a small candle to scent the kitchen, I could go on and on.
I love it all. I think that the knives are my favorite. Love you Marion. Thanks for the contest.
I think maybe mine didn’t post~:o( So, just in case, I’d have to say the paint~ (unless you’d throw in a free visit and a painting lesson) LOL. I can’t help it~ the paint is my fav~ Yup, the paint~
Oh my gosh!! The clock, no, the ironstone, no, the paints, bonding agent, hemp oil! . You DARE us to ask for one?! . OK…. the clock, I’ve been searching for 2years for this clock!!
Ohhh my…..choosing a favorite from all those goodies is hard, very hard, but I think the chance to try all your different colors of milk paint & to try my hand at mixing some custom colors would make the milk paint my favorite!!! Then next the hemp sheet. So very generous of you!!! All those vintage items are just awesome!
Oh my goodness, I can’t pick one, but if I HAD to, it woud be one of your products or maybe the ironstone, no wait, the sheet, but what about the compote? You are very generous! Thanks! Wanda
Antique hemp sheet
Milk paint, of course!!!
Wow! I do love everything, but I would have to say my favorite would be the antique blue and white compote!
Thank you!
Kim
How exciting!! Good Luck to everyone!! Amazing gift Marian…it’s all so beautiful. Thank you for including those of us overseas!!! I cannot wait to share with my customers and readers here in Australia!
Wow!!!
What a fantastic giveaway Marian! It’s really hard to pick one favourite thing. I would love the paint to transform a few pieces of furniture in my house, but I have a MMS paint distributor very close to my house so I can buy my own whenever I want. It’s a toss up between the blue and white compote and the covered ironstone dish, but if I have to pick one it would be the covered ironstone dish. I don’t have any ironstone yet and the shape of this particular piece is lovely.
OOOOHHH – How to choose???
Love the milk paints, brush, hemp oil and wax – have been thinking about trying my hand at redoing an old piece of furniture!
But as an amateur baker/confectionary-maker, I also love footed compotes for displaying my treats. And who can resist cool old boxes that can be used for storage/organization? And glass glitter for heartfelt and homemade ornaments? You’ve made this a tough choice!
Thank you for the chance to win such a wonderful giveaway!
Wow!! How am I to pick a favorite out of that box of a DIYer’s lottery winnings. But I will since it is my chance to win it all!! Can’t win unless I enter. Let me see, so much to choice from…….But I think I will choice the hemp sheet, since I live too far away to drive to one of your antiques shows to make that purchase. I would love to work with that hemp sheet and show you my results! Thanks so much for offering this great gift to your readers!!
Wow! What a dream come true for the lucky winner! Of course everything in the box is lovely, but I am drawn to the ironstone piece. I never new about ironstone until I started following your blog. Now I am obsessed!
The blue & white compote!
Guuurrrrlllll!, How could I possibly pick just one thing as my favorite???!!! They are all amazing. I love anything Bakelite. The feel (and smell :)) makes me think of meals long ago. The compote would be beautiful with some hydrangeas and a pumpkin. The ironstone and clock will add charm to any vignette. And that wonderful tote can be a dining table centerpiece year-round, the contents changed for seasons and holidays. The MMS products and twine have my head spinning, envisioning all of the projects I can do. I really is a wonderful giveaway!
Oh my gosh! This has got to be the best giveaway EVER!!!! I love everything in it! If I had to pick a favorite item (which is nearly impossible) it would probably have to be the compote or the wooden tote. I love your blog, your style and your milk paint!
I don’t expect to win, because I never do, but this would be a superb treat. I enjoy your blog and your products.
The glitter – would love to use it on some Christmas ornaments.
I would love to win all of it. But the new colors of paint and the hemp sheet would be wonderful. thank you for the offer.
What a great package! It’s a tie between the compote and the alarm clock. Thanks for the chance to win!
Oh thank you for allowing international entries!
I would love to try the Parsons West paintbrush, an essential tool when working with quality paints such as MMS milk paint.
For fun it would be the glass glitter, would love to try this out in time for Christmas.
Thank you from
Deborah (down here on the bottom of the world)
Wow! What a giveaway! I believe my favorite thing to win would be the glass glitter…..but, wait….maybe the compote….or the hemp sheet. I’d like to try the milk paint, too, and I love the clock. But, I think my favorite would be the glass glitter. I’ve wanted some of that for a long time. That’s it. The glitter.
Oh Marion, What a wonderful package you have put together and I am thrilled that you have offered it to us who are outside of the US. My birthday is Friday October 16th and winning this would propably top all birthday gifts! Picking a favorite is hard but i have been dying to feel, touch and work with those hemp sheets. Good Luck to everyone.
Angela
It’s all fabulous. I would use it all, but the item txt excites me most is the hemp sheet. Because of your inspiration, I recently found two balloon back chairs that are desperate for new upholstery. The paints would give me the incentive to try the line. I would also pour over your books. Thanks for the opportunity to win and enjoy such an awesome giveaway.
Besides the milk paint which I use regularly, my favorite thing would be the hemp sheet. I’ve been waiting for you to put one up for sale again. Thanks for the great giveaway!
Love love love everything….But I would have to pick the paint. In love with the paint.
What a fun giveaway! I love the blue and white compote.
I would love the whole box, but that blue and white compote is really speaking to me.
I would LOVE to try the sample paints!! Beautiful colors and what a treat to have several to play with!!
WOW! I would love it all, but I must say that the hemp sheet is the item I would swoon over the most. You and your blog give me a dose of encouragement in every post. Thanks for what you do!
I can’t decide between the cute alarm clock or the compote…love the look and love to use your paint on my projects
I am currently working on my first child’s nursery! I am going for a rustic/vintage look. I am currently trying to decided what color of milk paint to paint her furniture. I would love to get to experiment with the different color paints! All the beautiful decorative pieces would be great fit in her room! I love watching all your videos on how use milk paint. It has been very helpful!
The antiques are awesome, but the paint supplies would be such a blessing! I have a number of things that I’ve been wanting to beautify with your paints. Thank you for putting together such a box of treasures! It’s neat how much each item reflects you!
I would love the blue & white compote. I’ve been collecting ironstone and bleware for the last 41 years I’ve been married. I have a perfect spot for it!
That paint brush would definitely help me add a coat of Boxwood to my trunk! =)
The whole package is beautiful and very generous. I would love the paint and have lots of fun working with all the colors your offer, but you have introduced me to the world of Ironstone. I have not been able to find covered dishes in my local search and would love to add this piece to my new collection.
What a wonder-full giveaway! I would love the paint and paint brush. I love remaking furniture but am afraid to try new techniques.
I love the ironstone compote but my favorite has to be that wooden tote! It has so much character! Actually, I would love any and all of it!
It is hard to choose as all are lovely! But I am moving to a new home and the milk paint would help me make some changes to my decor. Thank you for sharing!! Love your blog.
How to pick just one favorite? The paint brush made my heart flutter a little. Strange , but true. The hemp sheet actually called me by name.! What a generous gift!
Thank you!
Just can’t pick!! If I had to, I guess it would be the ironestone!! Thanks for the opportunity Miss!!
The alarm clock-I just really love the vintage feel and that the brand was Clangor.
Definitely the milk paint! Oh, how I’d love to try it! There are so many wonderful things in this box. So much goodness wrapped up in one package would blow my mind! Thanks for the opportunity. Fingers and toes crossed! 🙂
The paint! I have always wanted to try it!
Love love the compote!! Anything with a pedestal makes me swoon!
Definitely the PAINT!
ooh..the hemp sheet! no, the hemp oil, no the covered iron stone dish, no the alarm clock!! ugh! everything is my favourite.. but if I must pick one – the MMS Milk Paint and the samples. That would be my very favourite.
I would take that compote ANY day!!! Thank you.
I would have to say the Ironstone! It is hard to find here in the Pacific Northwest so this piece would start me on my way. Of course, all the items in he box are lust worthy!
Wow! What a beautiful and creative gift box! Love everything, so difficult to choose! The blue and white compote is so pretty, but the wooden carrier with all the paint and supplies is pretty special!
OMG! What a haul! With every photo I was “Wow” love that! Love that! Love that! If I was to pick one thing it would be the MMS paint as I am going to be working on painting my dining room furniture very soon!
Oh, it’s so hard to choose just one thing! If I had to pick something I think it would be the alarm clock because it is so charming!
I’d love to try the hemp oil on some of my pieces. I’ve loved seeing what results you have had!
Hmm, I love the covered ironstone dish. As far as MMS product, I’m anxious to try out the brush soap. If I didn’t just buy the big jar of hemp oil I’ll I would say that. I love that stuff !
Oh. My. Gosh. What a giveaway! I would be thrilled to receive ANY of the items, but if I were to choose, I suppose it would be the hemp sheet. Thanks for the wonderful opportunity.
The antique blue & white compote! I would love to use that on my dressing table to hold my jewelry and bits and bobs!
Most definitely the wooden tote!
I would love the Samples of the Euopean line of paint colors.
What a difficult task to choose only one of all those wonderful prizes! I would have to say the Hemp Oil because I first read about it at a time when I was looking for something to clean and preserve some of my favorite family treasures.
This is the BEST giveaway I’ve ever seen and all of it is right up my alley! But to choose, I’d have to say the hemp oil as I’ve been longing to try it. It brings out such rich color and depth! But if I don’t have to choose, I’d love to win it all!
The box itself would be just like opening a wonderful Christmas/Birthday present all in one. If I had to pick just one it would be the old hemp sheet and the alarm clock…guess that’s two isn’t it! I love old linens of any kind and the clock reminds me of the one my granny had. I can just see her winding it up every night.
This is the most special give away I have seen. Every item shouts out “I’m from Miss Mustard Seed.” Oh that I would be the lucky one. My favorite item is the alarm clock. Time can stand still, fly by, and be saved in a bottle. But time spent with someone you love is the most special “time.”
My favorite would be the hemp sheet and hemp oil. And if I win I would like to share it with someone! You are so generous Marian!
I have not used MMS Milk Paint but have definitely wanted to try it. Your give away is so very generous. Picking a favorite would just be too hard. So many wonderful things. I do believe the paint samples would be most beneficial but the glass glitter is definitely fun and your book is something I need. I do like the antique clock and maybe that’s my most very favorite thing. I’ve been following your blog for awhile and love it. So many ideas and things to try. Thank you for the Miss Mustard Seed in a box give away and for a chance to win.
Wow…..the paint….and the brush….and the glitter…oh and the ironstone!
I am intrigued by the milk paint and would have a hard time settling on just one color I think, so having many colors to play with would be lovely…
Wow, what a lot of great stuff! Do I really have to pick one favorite? I am jonesing for it all! OK, if I have to pick one favorite, I pick the blue and white compote.
OMG how can one say a favorite??? OK the Ironstone covered dish. How incredibly generous of you with this giveaway. Cheryl
Oh wow. I am so excited for this giveaway! What incredible items! I would be absolutely thrilled to win even one item, but all – wow! How can one even decide?! Would love to try the paintbrush as my ones are all pretty rubbish, so would be a dream to paint with something so lovely. Thank you so much for the opportunity to win! 🙂
Wow, I think it would be amazing to win any of these items! I must admit that I would love to have a copy of your MMSMP Look Book One. Thanks so much sharing your life with us every day!
WOW!! That is a most generous and wonderful box!!! As much as I love that compote, my favorite item is the hemp sheet:). I have ne of the spectacular parsons-west brush and I love workng with it.
Thanks fir the chance to win!
Hi Marian,
The best gift was meeting you in person and being able to participate in your workshop back in May in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. It was that workshop that gave me the inspiration and confidence to start painting furniture on my own. My most recent project was done over the summer when I transformed my new dining table into something old, using the advice you had given me to strip it down then paint the bottom. This was my first experience with MMS Milk Paint, and I’m now a huge fan. So happy with how it turned out. I’m in chippy heaven. I would love to try the Bonding agent to see how the paint works with other pieces in my home I want to experiment on. The overall package sounds wonderful thank you for offering such a unique giveaway to your readers!
My goodness, what a fabulous array of goodies! All the items are wonderful but if I had to choose a favorite, it would be the knives. The color,of,the Bakelite handles makes my heart sing.
The covered ironstone would be my fav –
I’d use it to store dog treats on my counter so I’d be in/out of it several times a day.
My two scottie dogs would enjoy it too once they “learned” the sound of the lid coming off!
LOVE you & your style –
You motivate me to make stuff happen!

What an amazing give away! I would love any one of those lovely items! I really can’t choose, so I’m gonna be practical and say… the paint brush. I have been growing in my skills more and more all the time and the brush would be amazing to have to make my efforts go even further!
That alarm clock had me at “Good Morning!” I finally got to work with your milk paint this summer and absolutely loved how buttery and amazing everything felt and looked with it! What an amazing box of awesomeness to win!
I love the covered ironstone piece but would love to have all of it!
How generous! They would all be beautiful gifts. I think the clock would be inspirational to remind me how precious time is and how important it is to spend my time on the projects I love and for the people that are important to me. Thanks for your great blog!
Christmas is coming early!!!!! One favorite thing??? Clock, hemp cloth, paint, covered ironstone dish…, I think I would choose the clock – I collect clocks among other things!!!! This is wonderful – I love your style and you inspire me!!!!!
Dear Miss M,
My favorite thing in the giveaway box is the white covered ironstone serving dish. I have a fondness for vintage stoneware and have collected a few red and white Johnson Bros pieces. It all started with the first oval platter, the one thing I picked out from the house full of treasures left from my grandmother after she died. This white piece would blend in perfectly with my family of dishes. Keep up the blogging and thank you for teaching all of us how to make this old world just a little prettier.
Marian, would love them all but if had to pick just one favorite I think it would be your book. I look to your website for inspiration and motivation and really admire how you’ve turned your passion for creating into a successful business. I’ve always had a desire to try your products but our economic situation doesn’t permit it at the moment but winning your giveaway would be like a lottery win to me! Thanks for the chance.
The milk paint. With every project I wait till I’m getting quite a strong message from the object about the colour it should be. Sometimes it takes a while, and sometimes it’s not my favourite colour, which is where the leap of faith comes in – but it generally works and I love the result.
What an amazing give away! I personally would love the ironstone! It would be my first piece to start my collection.
Thanks!
OMGosh!! Do I have to pick just one!! I feel like a kid in a candy shop!! It really is so hard to pick – I love all your paint colors and have been looking forward to trying them!! If I have to pick just one item, though I think my heart swooned when I saw the little blue and white compote!! This is the best giveaway ever! I mean that! Love!! Thank you for the chance!!
What a wonderful and generous giveaway! There are so many wonderful treasures it is hard to pick one! I think the hemp sheet might call to me the most?
Wow Marian! That’s an exceptional gift box! I would be very excited to try out the MMMP products as I have some newly inherited antique pieces needing some TLC. This gift box would be the perfect ‘starter kit’ for me to get at my projects. Love the blog and look firward to seeing what is next in your journey 🙂
How I love waking up each day to my MSS post….it’s the first thing I read! I would love to win some paint…..any paint.
All your items are great but the ironstone is my fav …just like you I have a weakness !
The brush, the brush! I love beautiful tools! It would be a pleasure to use it. But I’m greedy, so I want it all. 🙂 What a beautiful pile of goodness!
I’d be most excited to try them hemp oil! I’ve loved experimenting with the milk paint and have some projects that could use some hemp oil to bring them back to life 🙂
This is a beautiful grouping of “favorite things”!! What a fantastic give away!!
My favorite would be the hemp sheet. I would love to dream up the perfect
way to use it !!
Thx MMS !!
What an awesome giveaway! I would absolutely LOVE everything, but that alarm clock would be perfect in my guest room. Thank you!!
This is a dream come true. If I had to pick one thing I would say the hemp sheet as I have been wanting to try a small upholstery project. Thanks for the generous gift Marian!
Of course everything you are giving away is amazing, but my favorite thing would be the little ironstone covered dish. I would use it for my brush soap. I’ve been looking for a fab little covered dish for precisely that purpose since currently I keep my brush soap in a washed out sour cream container and that is definitely not pretty to look at! I shall be keeping my fingers crossed until you name the winner!
What generosity! I just adore that blue-and-white compote – so elegant, so pretty, so vintage! This is definitely one of the most special giveaways I’ve seen, and so in keeping with your style. Thank you for offering this to one of us!
So many favorites, but my most favorite would be the antique blue & white compote. A truly beautiful give-away! Thank you!
Everything!!!
So many beautiful things it is hard to choose a favorite! I would have to say that the blue and white antique compote has a special place in my heart though. I can just imagine it at the breakfast table with fresh croissants or fruit…what a wonderful way to start the day!!! The sampler of the new milk paint colors is a close second and I have been itching to try all of them. Thank you for this generous gift to one BLESSED person!!!
The beautiful hemp sheet looks absolutely lovely 🙂
Wow, the whole gift box is awesome! Love the ironstone covered piece, great for hiding your dish sponge by the kitchen sink and making it pretty!
The clock!
WOW……..just one of these wonderful items would be a prize! Since I am dying to try more colors, would have to say my favorite would be the 6 samples of the European colors. I need so badly to practice so I can get a result that looks more like the caliber of the work you do?!
Thank You!
I would love to have any of the items, but my favorite would be the hemp sheet. I would love to use it on some projects I have in mind!!!
Tough choices. Everything is lovely. But I’ll limit myself to the wooden tote. I love wooden trays, totes. etc.
Wowzer ~ You look good in a box! 😉
It all looks so wonderful; it’s almost too hard to choose a favorite! The blue & white compote dish does sort of speaks to me.
I really do enjoy your blog. Your creativity, skill and humor make a very nice package!
I am mesmerized by the glass glitter. I have just the project for it. Thank you for the contest
Marian-Where do I begin?! I love the glitter, am lusting after the hemp sheet, have MMSMP, but could always use more, the lidded compote is adorable, I can always use a new awesome brush, I have a thing for old wood totes, my dishes are all blue & white transfer ware and I’d love & use evrything your offering up!!! Oh be still my beating heart! ❤️????❤️❤️❤️
I would like your brush to as I have all your other products.??? I would love the hemp fabric.
Thanks for this awesome box of goodness..
What a great prize!! I’d love to have the hemp sheet!!
It would be fun to try a few different colors of MMS milk paint! Your blog is an inspiration.
My favorite is the compote.
Hello Miss Mustard Seed, thank you for the opportunity to participate in your giveaway.
If I were to win such a nifty suite of items my favorite one would probably be the alarm clock, as a night owl mornings are tough, but I can imagine them being a little bit easier if the first thing to see was something stylish and functional (instead of the functional but damaged digital clock with some lights burned out that I currently use, the display looks more like binary computer code than regular numbers sometimes but it still works so I just.can’t.get.a.new.one.). Such an alarm clock would be helpful to start the day right after sleeping soundly under a perfectly temperature-regulating antique hemp sheet. I would rise, trod to the kitchen, grab a kiwi from the compote dish and use one of those bakelite-handle knives to slice it up for breakfast. Yum with a dash of vitamin C. Maybe I’d use another knife to spread some butter on a muffin or a scone, anything could happen! Then I’d likely spend a few leisurely minutes perusing your books for design tips and inspiration for my next trash salvaged piece of furniture. Some chair or end table would be painted with milk paint and what I imagine to be the fanciest-yet-functional paint brush a girl could ask for. As for the soap and wax, those would open entirely new worlds of furniture experimentation, as would the hemp oil, but I imagine some of those sad-looking chairs I find would glow like pregnant queens after being treated so kindly.
At some point I’d probably take a break for the chocolate stored in the covered ironstone dish, out of sight but never out of mind. If the creative juices were really flowing I’d try making something sparkly and decorative with that glass glitter (a star for the wall to hang with the twine? a sparkly seashell? bling up some birch branches to mimic snow?) because the upside of living with two boys is that I can try whatever decorating idea pops into my head (as long as it doesn’t cost anything or interfere with their path to the fridge). Hopefully I wouldn’t make too much of a mess, but no promises when the crafting is underway. At the end of day I’d tuck into bed and think to myself, “today was a good day, what will tomorrow bring?” Then I’d go to sleep after, once again, setting the alarm clock.
Oh, it’s so hard to choose! All of it would be an absolute dream to have. I guess my favorite part would be the milk paint. I have still yet to try any of it even though I love the look! I guess ill just have to cross my fingers and wish really, really hard!
Oh my goodness, I love it all! I think I am most excited about the paint. I have wanted to try your paint line for some time. Thank you for the opportunity to win.
Definitely the milk paint! I have done lots of chalk painting and am dying to try milk paint. I would also be interested in trying the hemp oil, I have never seen it used before so a very new and interesting concept!
What a fun giveaway!! Can’t decide if it would be the hemp sheet or the paints! I have never used milk paint but would love to try it and I have sooo many projects I could use the hemp sheets on.
Anything in the tote would be a great gift, but something that I wouldn’t normally buy for myself is the hemp sheet. Thanks MMS
Your giveaway is amazing!!! I love everything in the box!!! To choose one would be the ironstone !
I have been an admirer of your ironstone collection since following your blog. I do not live near you so I am unable to attend any of your sales…. Perhaps i would be lucky enough to win one of your pieces…The paint is awesome too!!!
Peace
Sharon
It was hard to choose – mostly because I was hyperventilating – but also because I love it all! What really “speaks to me” is the ironstone, the clock, and of course, the MMS Milk Paint!!!
I was thinking that it was going to be only open for US residents and wondering how I could convince my family to move to America 🙂
Hands down the Hemp sheet is my favourite thing Marian but all of them are beautiful and so generous of you. Would love to win this!
Fiona xx
All of the European paint colors, which I haven’t tried yet and the Ironstone! Actually, I’d be excited about everything!!
The antique hemp sheets would be just fabulous. I have wanted one forevah and haven’t been able to work up the courage to buy one.
Wow….overwhelmed by your thoughtful generosity! What an awesome gift! I plan on trying all of your paint colors, your brush is on my “to buy” list, I was ready to order some hemp oil today…..I would love it all…but, what struck me was when I saw the Alfred Meakin stamp. My grandmother was a collector of all kinds of dishes! I have her Alfred Meakin “Marigold” set…how lovely it would be to have my first piece of ironstone come from you and to grace the table along with Grandma Myrtles dishes!
I would use and enjoy all of these things! I have several projects that your milk paint would be perfect for. I think my favorite thing is the alarm clock. Oooooo, I hope I win!
That’s a neat idea! My favorite piece is the antique compote. Such beautiful detail! And a lovely shape to boot.
The wooden tote would look so cute as part of a centerpiece for any holiday, or for many other uses. I would also love the glitter – it’s time to start making ornaments! 🙂
Oh My Goodness! I Love it all. I really love the blue and white compote.
I’d love the glitter, especially with Christmas just around the corner and I’d be really interested in reading your book. And of course the paints would be great too!
I love the ironstone dish.
What a fun give-a-way!!! My favorite item is the cute alarm clock. Thank you for all the inspiration.
I would pick the covered ironstone dish, I live in CA and it’s hard to find ironstone here. Truly, I would
love each item in the give-away and put each item to good use in my decor.
Thank you Marion for giving us the chance to win this wonderful gift!
So many great items! The one I like best is the blue and white compot, so cute with the alarm clock and knives on it. I live in mid Mn and we hardly ever find ironstone so that would be great too! The whole box would be like Christmas….only better, no sweater the wrong size or color ! Even if I don’t win it’s fun to dream. What a generous offer.
Marion, what a fabulous and generous giveaway! I love your style and have followed for years. I would have to say that the blue and white compote would be my pick, but I love all of the items you have included. Thanks for the opportunity!
Soo difficult to choose just one pretty….but my fav would have to the the ironstone, simply because I have yet to find a piece in South MS!
I’d love the paint and ironstone dish!!
How could I not choose the milk paint!!! It’s kind of like who you are and all the rest is your generosity! Instead of you thanking us, I thank you for all the time you give to your posts, to inspire all of us to bring articles that have been worn out and discarded and made them ready to be loved again. I am so connected to this because I am an end of life chaplain where I help people be ready to be loved again. It is with that great care that you do all your work so I thank you!!
They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. You should be very flattered because I saw pieces in various Atlanta flea market/antiques malls this weekend that almost looked as if you had done it! I would really like to get my hands on your paint and hemp oil. So I really would love to win this most generous giveaway.
I think I would enjoy the milk paint the most. I have never used it, always chalk paint, but I have a suite of furniture that I think milk paint would be perfect for. It would be for my new daughter’s bedroom.
Oh the alarm clock and the knives!!!!’ They are perfect for my hutch ?
The thing I will like the best is the ironstone, but your book would be very helpful because there are a few pieces of furniture I would like to use milk paint on, but don’t know the first thing about it, I have tried watching your demo’s but it still scares me!
This prize is a Miss Mustard Seed Treasure Chest! Each item is wonderful all by itself so it is hard to choose. I would have to say my favorite would be your books or the box.
OOOOhhh!!! Too many favorites but I must say it has to be the ironstone covered dish. I collect Meakin so it would be right at home here. The hemp sheet would be fabulous too. Love your blog and can’t wait to try some of your paint. Thanks!!
Love, love, love ironstone, Miss Marian!
Warm regards, Deborah
I would just be happy to win anyone of your great products. Who doesn’t like to be a chosen one. : ) Anything + everything you offer sounds wonderful to me. Your BOOK, the milk paints, the hemp sheet, the ironstone – you name it. Thanks much. Cheers!
oooh, that blue & white compote!
I THINK THE MILK PAINT WOULD BE MY FAVORITE ,LOVE THE LOOK ON FURNITURE AND WOULD LIKE TO TRY MY HAND ON THIS (AWESOME COLLECTION )
The entire box is wonderful and so carefully considered. But I think my favourite item would be your book. When you were in Toronto last fall, I asked you to sign my copy of your book, so that I could give it to my best friend, Trudy, to keep. I’d loaned it to her to read and it had been a revelation to her, helped her accept her love of home-making for her family and friends as something worthy. She was delighted with the message you wrote, which was so gratifying to me – but now I’m without a copy of your book! I love everything you do; you’re such an inspiration to so many of us.
I just love the blue and white compote. It really made me smile when I saw it. Would love to try your paints.
Well, my heart skipped a beat when I saw the clock! Thank you for the opportunity and for getting me excited about painting.
Oh boy…..such a great idea…and such a wonderful gift!….all so special….but if I had to choose just one thing….it would be…the hemp sheet….oh would I love to have one…..I have enjoyed reading all about the upholstery that you have done with them (and duck cloths)…watched all your YouTube videos with Kristie….anxiously awaiting the next segment….would love to try my own hand (and luck!) doing a small ottoman…..you inspire me.
My favorite would be the box!!! I love wood carriers! This one is so cute. Everything g in this is amazing!!!
Ahhhh, how to decide? I love the compote but the alarm clock is darling too! Although, the hemp sheet…..I have some upholstery jobs to do, that would be perfect! It’s all amazing – what a great giveaway!
I can never find a covered ironstone dish like the one in your box, so that would have to be my favorite item. Oh, but no, there’s the hemp sheet. Wait, the alarm clock is so appealing. Shoot, I forgot about the paint samples. In the wooden tote. No, no, the fruit compote, that’s it! But then that hemp oil……… oh dear.
Wow! What an awesome treat. Hard to pick a favorite, but I think the wooden tote is so cute. I would also be thrilled to win your paint. It would give me the courage to finally try milk paint. Thanks for the opportunity.
You are an inspiration! What a beautiful collection. I was thinking as I scrolled through how they are all so delightful it would be like getting an extra birthday to win! I do think the compote is my absolute favorite. You find the most amazingly gorgeous pieces!
While I love all those items, I would love to paint a dresser with your milk paint in Marzipan. I think the collection of painting products are a wonderful prize.
Wow! What a giveaway!! It is so hard to choose what would be my favorite thing in your goodie box but I think I would have to say the alarm clock and the paint. I have yet to try to paint anything and I have a few good starter pieces in my home that would be my first subjects! Thanks for a great giveaway, you are very generous.
The array of items in this giveaway is astounding! It is like someone (Miss Mustard Seed) knew every one of my favorite things on my ‘bucket list of presents’! You are so very generous. My most favorite of the box of treasures is the samples of the European line, but a close second is the ironstone covered dish.
So many great items but my favorite would have to be the hemp sheet. I didn’t know they existed before reading your blog. Thanks for the chance!
There is not ne thing in particular I would choose, the entire giveaway is amazing! Thank you for your generosity and thinking of your followers. Love everything Miss Mustard Seed. You are just an inspiration to many.
The clock! Love it all and it all would work great with my display of the other Big Ben and Baby Ben Clocks that have of my grandparents, that I’m working on displaying in my guest room soon. 🙂
What an amazing give away. I think my favorite prize would be the paint samples. I so want to give the milk paint a try.
How does one choose from such an abundance of riches? The knives really caught my eye for some reason, but I’ve not used the paint at all so I have to go with the paint – the samples of European colors – only so I wouldn’t have to go through the pain of narrowing it down.
I have such a hard time picking a favorite because this box is basically my JAM. I’ll have to go with the milk paint right now because I bought a little cottage this year and am painting all the backs of my doors and some cabinets and furniture pieces with milk paint. This box would be such a great housewarming gift!!
All the items are wonderful, but the would love spreading all the paint colors across multiple projects.
I love the paint – I would like to try it on a piece in my craft room. I was so inspired by your office room redo that I am making plans to make over my craft room. All the things in the box are perfect. I am an ironstone collector too! Thank you for all the inspiration!!
I would love, love to have the milk paint. I have so many projects I could use those paints. And that compote is so lovely. It is just all so wonderful and generous of you!
You had me at MMS paint!! My heart flutters at all those wonderful goodies. Love your site, style and the way you connect with your readers.
Love it all especially the blue and white compote
Hard to choose just one. But I just painted the cabinets in my laundry room mustard seed yellow and I’m hooked! So I would say the milk paint.
I love this give away! It’s hard to pick just one. I’m new to your blog and haven’t tried your milk paint. So, milk paint is what I would look forward to receiving. I have booths and work in an antique store and would love to see how the paint looks on an old piece of furniture. The hemp oil, bonding agent, and brush I’ve never used so, it would all be exciting to win.
Thanks,
Benita 🙂
What an incredibly generous give away! I would enjoy every item. I’m just about out of hemp oil, but I would love to try your European milk paint colors. I have the perfect spot for the blue and white compote. Thanks so much for being so generous!
What a wonderful and generous giveaway! I love your blog, which is so inspiring! It is so difficult to choose which one item that I would like; however, I would have to choose between the milk paints or the hemp sheet. I have bought a step stool which would be perfect to learn how to use your milk paint on and I have always wanted a hemp sheet because I heard they are wonderful to sleep under. Thanks for the opportunity to enter – my fingers and toes are crossed!
Oh the paint, the paint, the paint! My second thing to make me smile would be the compote!
Thanks for your wonderful and helpful blog!
~Bobbie
I would really like to try the milk paint! Everything looks beautiful, though.
I definitely think the milk paint would be my favorite thing. I have a lingerie dresser from Ikea I want to paint and that would be the helpful – along with the paint brush, too!
I am most excited by the Hemp Oil. I’ve been wanting to try it, but just haven’t gotten around to ordering some. Having it included in this HUGE giveaway, has me crossing my fingers & toes!
Oh please ME ME ME ME ! I paint and sell furniture and have recently conquered my scared and started a blog.
I have always used chalk paint , that I mix myself, but I am dying to try Milk Paint.
So if you are just going to make us a choose a favorite from all that drool worthy stuff I guess I would have to say the paint.
I rarely comment on blog posts, but while I am here, I have to say that your blog is wonderful . As a long time business entrepreneur I admire your drive and the way you push yourself to always be growing and learning . I think that you are an inspiration to so many people out there that are struggling to conquer their fears and build their work life around something they love to do. A dear friend once told me ” it’s funny how the most blessed, luckiest people, are also the hardest working.” I look at the size of your blog, and all the things you do around that and I think of that comment. I am in awe of not just of your accomplishments but of the sheer amount of work you must turn out to reach them. And yes Its all true and from the heart.. whether I win or not. :}
WOW.. it’s hard to choose but I think it would be the paint and the hemp oil, good luck to all!!!
Tried to leave a comment but my comments don’t seem to be going through again. They aren’t showing up when I refresh the page.
*TEST
I am just getting started with painting everything in my house, so I would seriously LOVE the milk paint! Ok, ok…I have to admit, I’m smitten with the compote!
Well that one worked so here I go again….
Holy moly! What a giveaway! I love the clock. My husband’s grandfather owned a clock repair shop so he has a soft spot for clocks. That one is so sweet!
I love the set of knives…so cute! But I actually love it all
How to narrow down to one item, but I think I would like to see what I could make with the glass glitter, and an alarm named clanger, what more needs to be said about that.
I’m in Australia,,a big following here,anything would be great,but I love the knives.Please keep doing what you do,you are my daily fix
Hi Marian. I have been reading your blog for several years and this is the first time I have left a comment. I want to thank you for inspiring me to tackle my projects. I have been working with your paint this year and am enjoying completing projects and moving them into my home. It would be very difficult to choose one item in your lovely ‘box’, but if pressed I would have to choose two – one of your new paint brushes and the antique hemp sheet. I sew, and would soon like to try upholstery for the first time. I love all of your products!!! thank you for your thoughtful and generous offer!
I really would enjoy the paint. After 28 years I am empty nesting and loving it! I would love to try out the paint on all the projects I have set aside for all these years. I am loving trying new things in my free time and would love to try this paint with the techniques on your web site. Woo Hoo!!
Sada For The Love Creations in South Australia shared this link with us. What an amazing prize, what amazing paint. I’m hooked, it’s a case of don’t stand still in my home or you get painted in milk paint. Love the product, love Sada and the way she promotes such a quality product. We are so lucky and fortunate to be able to access Milk Paint here. Can’t get enough of it.
WOW! Marian, what an incredibly generous giveaway! As for my favorite item, the compote calls to me big time, but the paint, brush, etc. would be so, so great to help me get started painting the furniture pieces I’m dying to do. Then there’s that sweet clock…oh dear, what is one to do? I think it comes down to the paint and supplies, though, because that would help me maybe earn some much-needed dollars. Yup, it’s gotta be the paint.
Whether I win or not, thank you so much for offering such a generous gift!
My favorite would be the covered ironstone dish. It would be a nice addition to my new collection!
I am so delighted and excited that us folks on the other side of the world can have a chance to win something from your unique collection.
Here in Adelaide, South Australia I search often for transfer ware or ironstone, but it doesn’t seem to be around here much. I have bought your paint from For The Love Creations, but I would love to try our new european colours and also that new paint brush looks superb to use.
I love the compote dish and it would look stunning filled with ripe red cherries for our Christmas family table.
I am hosting christmas this year and I am going to use a sort of scandinavian grey, white, silver theme with pops of red and dark blue. Your german glass glitter would help make it look perfect as for my birthday recently I got my very ow little real christmas pine tree.
Being so small I am going to make my own decorations out of polymer clay (stars, bells) and also
cover little nuts (Australian native tiny shaped pinecones) in silver glitter to hang on them too!!
Oh and I could use your blue/white twine to hand the decorations on the tree!
I already have the hemp oil which I use all the time and recently I have sanded back daggy old wooden picture frames in sections to let the hemp oil bring the wood underneath to life!
You know even if I don’t win anything – you have helped me focus on exactly what my theme will be for christmas!! Now I can start creating as Christmas is not too long away! xxxxx
Oh, Marion! You are too generous! I couldn’t believe how your list of gifts went on and on. I know that the hemp sheet would be my favorite. Whoever wins will be ecstatic.
Geeked about EVERYTHING, but looking forward to trying out the European Colours!
The alarm clock. I’m picturing myself opening this box of goodies to increase my chances. My husband would know where to find me as I would be painting my furniture through winter!
Marion, I am actually torn between the knives (love bakelite) and the fun of trying out all the gorgeous european paint colors!
Oh, my goodness … so hard to choose just one; but, it would be the alarm clock … as a reminder to make time … time for myself, time for my family, time to create, time to play and a time to be still .. and yes, I put myself first; because sometimes we forget to do that and that little alarm clock would be a daily reminder … to give ourselves the time we need.
The box itself!
Who could choose from all that goodness? OK, paints in MMS yellow, boxwood, duck egg blue, linen and marzipan. Oh how I wish you had offered maybe four small boxes so more of us would have a chance to win. Love you and your generosity. I read you first everyday.
I so enjoy your blog! Thank you for the time and effort you put into it. As for the giftbox giveaway, it’s all fabulous! If I have to pick one item, it would be the ironstone. It just so appeals to me. And I have the perfect place to put it!!! The whole set is terrific!
Amazing give away! It’s hard to pick a favorite when I love everything in the box, but I’ll have to go with the ironstone dish and hemp sheet as these are really hard to find in Australia.
I rarely leave comments but to have a chance to win something from Miss Mustard Seed… Wow!!!
Please don’t make me choose!! I would take any one of the items-they all are special. I have yet to try your paint and I love to paint furniture. I would love the glitter to use on an upcoming Christmas project and I’m trying my hand at some upholstery so the hemp sheet would be put to good use. I would have fun displaying the rest of the items in my house where all my guests would see them and I could tell them where I got them.
Thanks for all the blogging you do. I loved it before and I love it now!!!!
Ohhhhhhhhhh Marian, What perfect timing… It is so difficult to choose, but I think the hemp sheet, which runs a close race with the ironstone. And the timing… my Birthday is the 17th, so what could be better than winning a contest from you for my day!
Like everyone else how can I choose just one thing?? The paint would be great to try and with all the right tools I couldn’t make a mistake! But I’m always so jealous of your ironstone! What a wonderful give away this would be to win!,,
It is definitely the hemp sheet! Or is it the wooden tote? Hemp sheet for sure… Hemp sheet – wooden tote, hemp sheet – wooden tote. The blue and white compote is beautiful too. Hemp sheet, wooden tote, blue and white compote. Sure could use the milk paint now that I am retired. Let’s see, hemp sheet, wooden tote, blue and white compote, milk paint? Hemp sheet for sure!
Wow, what a giveaway! I’d have to say the alarm clock – it’s truly beautiful. Patina and time worn… LOVE! 🙂
What a generous give-away. My favorite item would have to be the hemp sheet since I have been waiting for you to list some. I read your blog almost daily and have learned a lot.
Thanks for sharing!
It would have to be the compote, I don’t have any in my collection, but there are so many other inspirational pieces, and, that hemp sheet would be dreamy…….
Just love that blue and white compote! Would look lovely with some of my other pieces I’ve been collecting. Thanks!
Hard to pick but as I’m still learning I think the books would be my favorite items. I love when you post how to’s and show finished pieces 🙂
How does one decide. I love the blue compote but I also want to try that hemp oil. The way you put it together makes it all like a big present wrapped in a big bow.
What a generous giveaway Marian. I love everything in your basket, let’s see….I already have your book……but love the white ironstone or the European paint colours. Have a great day.
Yum! Such a great package. I love every item, but the Linen sheet jumped out at me.
What a wonderful opportunity to have just a little MMS in my home. I love the blue and white compote.Thank your for the offer.
Just one favorite? It all looks awesome to me but I would love to try the paint!
I love the covered ironstone dish! I’ve never tried your milk paint, so that would be amazing as well!
Oh My how do you choose ??!! I love all of it and would be thrilled with just one of those great gifts !! I would have to say the Ironstone Covered Dish. I have always admired how you use the ironstone through out your home. My Grandmother used her ironstone plates with every holiday. What sweet memories I have every time I see a piece of ironstone. My mother has a wooden box similar to this one. Oh and what I could paint your with chalk paint !! It would be better than Christmas as a little girl if I won.
The paint or maybe the ironstone. I have a few family pieces and would live to have more. It is all amazing.
Hi Marion,
Gosh. Which item would I like the most? I’ve wanted to try your paint, but could never decide on which color to try. But, IT’s THE SWEET COVERED COMPOTE THAT I ADORE!!
Oh my goodness, I think the compote would be my favorite thing, but I LOVE the whole giveaway.
What a great bunch of treasures! While the ironstone and the compote are lovely, I think the paint and extra paint supplies are the best. So many projects could get done and to be able to try all the new European colors would be a treat. What a generous package to share with your readers.
Wow, I have ever seen a gift box with so many items that I absolutely love! I did a double-take when I saw the compote so I’ll give that my vote. Thanks so much!
I just fainted. Oh my goodness, what a generous giveback, Marian. I would select the paint – for my sister! For me, it would be the blue & white ironstone compote, with the hemp sheet as a close second. Thank you! {pick me. pick me}!
Rita
Wow!!! Right now I have been so crushing on your paints, so I would LOVE those…but the hemp oil has been another item I’d like to add to my cupboard. I have to go with the paints!! The european colors would be to cool to work with.
Wow, Marian – that’s a box of loot! It’s so hard to choose a favorite, but I think I will say that my favorite item would be the array of Milk Paints. I’m imagining all of the projects that I could accomplish!
What a great giveaway. Everything is great. I’m wanting to learn how to paint with the paint, and the processes after.
I’d like the hemp sheet because I’d never buy it for myself.
Oh, the paint! Enjoy your blog!
What a lovely gift box giveaway. All of the items are treasures. I would have to pick the milk paint since I have not tried it yet. I know, how could I? I have tried your Hemp oil and love it. I have been meaning to purchase some milk paint, just have not done it yet. Not sure what color I wanted.
Bev
Love it all, but would have to say the ironstone dish!
Oh my gosh! Everything is wonderful! My first choice would have to be the ironstone although each thing is so great! Thank you for your blog and the blessings it brings to so many!!
The milkpaint!
If I were to win your wonderful giveaway I would be most excited about ALL the MMS paint!
Oh my goodness! You have the most fabulous taste! Really love that little compote, as well as your lovely paint.
There is not one item that I would not love to have. I have been collecting blue and white dishes since my aunt gave me a soup bowl with lid similar to the ironstone so I have to stay true to my roots.
BTW, loving the recent posts and your return to your roots.
This is very generous of you Marian and I love everything in the box but I would have to say that my favorite thing is the box itself. So full of potential and can be used in so many ways. Of course, I wouldn’t be disappointed with the contents.
I love your blog and save you to read after dinner and dishes as a treat.
Oooooh! That antique blue and white compote had me at hello! Thanks, Marion!
Milkpaint, Milkpaint, Milkpaint please!!
While I would make good use of all the items in the special box, I would especially love the alarm clock. It reminds me of a miniture one I bought while stationed at Rhein Mein and woke up to every morning for over ten years. I accidently left it at a motel once in LA and was absolutely frantic till I was able to get it returned. Thanks for bringing back the memories!
Wow. Everything looks great but I have 2 favorites. I just finished my first project with your Milk Paint line and it turned out fantastic, so I would love more paint, but I also want to start an ironstone collection. I saw some beautiful pieces in Round Top Texas a few weeks ago and loved them.
The whole basket sounds lovely, but my heart went pitter-patter at the sight of the compote! 🙂
Seleen
Southern.Girl at Home
My favorite would be either the covered ironstone dish or the milk paint. I can’t seem to choose! Thanks for such a fun giveaway!
Like so many others have stated, I would love to own each item in this lot-what a wonderfully generous gift!
If I had to pick just one favorite, it would be your MMS paint. I have a garage full of projects just waiting to get some TLC, new lives, and into my home 🙂
I have a thing for clocks, so the alarm clock is definitely my favorite thing in the box. It would look amazing on my night stand (my bedroom is glam shabby chic).
I had the pleasure of meeting you at the Chapel Market and thought you were very friendly and gracious! It was a thrill to see your booth and all the treasures in it. The giveaway is amazing and I love it all! I cannot pick a favorite thing, but I do know I would share it with my friends that love Miss Mustard Seed, they would treasure something from you!
OMG – by FAR …………HEMP SHEETS! I have not seen one and I am a fabric adddick
All the paint products.
Wow! What a giveaway! I think my favorite would be the paint because I have an old desk that needs a makeover.
that hemp sheet would be a wonderful prize all by itself, and I have some chairs that are just dying for a chance to be recovered with it!
The paint brush would be heaven!
PAINT, PAINT, PAINT, AND MORE PAINT!!!! What a treasure box of goodies!!!!!
Wow, Marian, the only thing missing is you! ha! What an amazing, generous giveaway! The paint would thrill me! Thank you for the opportunity! Fingers crossed!
What a great giveaway–EVERYTHING in the box is great!! But out of everything, I would have to say that my favorite thing is the white ironstone.
It was not a difficult choice for me. The compote! What a lovely little piece. I would love all of it, but “oh, that compote” would be the best of all. Thank you for the opportunity to win all the lovelies.
It’s a bounty of goodness!! How do you choose? I would be thrilled to receive any of those treasures!! I collect vintage clocks and have just started to collect ironstone which is hard to find out here in the Pacific Northwest. I love to find those old overlooked pieces of furniture and turn them into something beautiful so any of your paint would be awesome…….It’s just too hard to pick just one! 🙂 I guess if I had to choose, it would be the Blue Compte. I have a dear friend who loves Blue and White and I would love to be able to gift her that lovely piece. Thank you for continuing to be an inspiration to all of us and for being so generous with this giveaway! 😀
Wow what a massive give away! I drool over hemp sheets, but since I started to collect ironstone just recently, I have to say my favorite would be the ironstone. It would make a wonderful addition!
Oh Wow, I want all of these treasures! I did cover my dining chairs with drop cloths 2 years ago, really liked the result! I would LOVE to try out those hemp sheets that you rave about. This is sooo exciting!! Thank you!
What a great giveaway! It’s so hard to choice but I think the wooden tote is my favorite! Thanks so much for the chance to win!
I would want it all! But I really love the blue and white compote,mint is truly beautiful. This is such a wonderful give away. Thank you for the opportunity to win!
I am SO EXCITED about this giveaway! I have never won any giveaway but I am really hoping to win this one because I LOVE EVERYTHING in this box!
I have been dying to try hemp sheets but I love the compote and alarm clock most!
I’d like to say Thank You for offering such a terrific and generous giveaway. Each and every item would be a pleasure to own but my favourite would be the milk paint – I’m still using chalk paint and would be thrilled to try out the milk paint.
Marian….what a most amazing and generous giveaway!!!….It is so very hard to say what would be my favorite item as they are all so very special….from your paint collection to that wonderful vintage box and that alarm clock is calling my name….however, if I had to choose one, it would be the blue and white compote!!!!….So great to have followed you all these years…you are an inspiration to us all!!
The milk paint! My wife would love it.
I love the Bakelite knifes! I would add them to my collection.
What a generous giveaway! I love them all, but that compote is so sweet and unique, I want to go find one myself! Of course, had that not been there I would have been crazy excited about the Parsons Brush! I am wishing for them to be restocked 🙂
Thanks Marion!
You are very generous! I have been a follower of your blog for some time now and always look forward to what you have to share. I’ve learned so much and have been very inspired by your creativity. I’ve loved the series about how you got started. Reading about your beginnings gives some of us courage to take that first step out of our comfort zone and trusting the Lord will guide us along the way. It is reassuring that you didn’t know what all of your goals were, but you took one step at a time and used your gifts.
Hmmm, my favorites in your giveaway? I haven’t tried your paint or looked at your books, so would love to try them out, in addition to the wax and paintbrush. I’m also drawn to the wood box, the hemp sheets and the ironstone. The antique compote and alarm clock are very appealing as well. I do love a lot of your favorite things.
May the Lord continue to give you favor. Blessings!
Oh my! What an incredibly generous giveaway! Each item is a treasure on its own, but number one for me would be the covered ironstone dish. Something about getting ironstone from you would be pretty special!
As an ardent follower of your blog and lover of your design, I was delighted to see your “giveaway” box, chocked full of such beautiful and timeless treasures. To pick one item as a favorite is very difficult – but perhaps I would have to say the wooden box. Wood has such a warmth and history to it and boxes are full of treasures, so yes, it would be the wooden carrying box! Keep delighting us with all of your beautiful work!
Holly
Wow, what a generous and thoughtful giveaway. I love the clock, the ironstone covered dish is so sweet…I love it all but best would be the chance to experiment with your paint. I’ve followed for so long and would be thrilled to win!
Wow, wow, wow! What a wonderful collection of MMS products and loves. If I won, my favorite would be the paintbrush. I love a good tool.
I love the ironstone piece…. but everything is wonderful!!!
The compote, the paint, the wooden tote, OH MY! I would be thrilled beyond words to win any of the items in your very generous give away. I have a few pieces of furniture to paint for my downsized apartment. I have been reading your blog for some time and you have inspired me to try new decor for my little home and I’m loving it. Blue has always been my favorite color, but I think my favorite is the sweet compote and I know just where it would live!
Oh Marion! What a generous gift! It would be nearly impossible to choose a favorite! The clock is adorable, and reminds me of my grandparents! I collect ironstone so the dish would be perfect! The paint? I just purchased a vintage dresser at my neighbors auction. I had hoped to save up and get some of your paint! I even thought of hinting to my husband as a Christmas idea!!!
My favorite item would be the container of MMS Glass Glitter in Tiara (silver).
Picking a favorite is difficult, but I think the ironstone compote would be my very favorite, I can imagine using it on my dining room table decking it out using some of your beautiful table scape ideas. This is a very generous give-away!
The alarm clock. That number 8 kills me.
Everything in the giveaway sparks excitement, but I’d love to try the paint. I have several projects that I have thought about tackling, but I never get the nerve to order the paint. Winning some would give me the push to stop being afraid, and to start doing!
Wow…what a great box of wonderful! Kind of tough to choose but if I have to choose I think the European paint samples and hemp oil would be it. I’m just getting into painting furniture. Trying to start a part time job when I semi-retire. You inspired me. Thank you for all that you share.
I love your style and read your blog daily. The fun of transforming a space and cast off items is intoxicating to me. I love all your items, but the milk paint and hemp oil would be my favorites.
Keep up the good work!
Wow! How can one chose just one favorite from such a generous box of treasures?! But, because you asked, and you are always so wonderful and so inspirational to us, I would pick the blue & white compote. A true treasure to be cherished for years to come!
Wow! That truly IS you in a box! It just kept going and going any going! What a very generous giveaway! you really know how to shake things up, don’t you? I love everything in your collection, but I think maybe the samples of the European colors of MMSMP would be my favorite. Its a chance to see the colors and hopefully it’ll get me motivated to once and for all jump in to painting my very large wall unit in my LR. But I also would love the book, the glitter and the ironstone covered dish too! Wow-wee!
This is so wonderful!! Thank you for this opportunity! 🙂 The ironstone dish would be my favorite. The simplicity and sophistication of the piece makes me smile! 🙂
Oh My WORD!! What a generous giveaway!
That little lidded Ironstone piece is adorable, and would be a great addition to my current Ironstone collectiion – the Chamber Pot I purchased from you at the Luckett’s Market.
Ooooooo! Great box of treats! Love the tureen and the compote! And the books…and the clock…and the brush…such a great collection of stuff! Thanks for the chance to win!
Well, tonight while I was in the drive thru, the person in front of me bought my purchase!!! So, I am feeling lucky! I want the paint brush! I bought one and love it, so another would be great! Here’s me rolling the dice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I adore everything in the box! But if I had to choose only one as my favorite? The blue and white compote. Or, the ironstone tureen. Or, your awesome milk paint products…. It’s impossible to choose only one! 🙂 Sorry!
Great giveaway! I have been wanting to try your milk paint and of course the brush!
I love it all, especially the covered ironstone piece. What a fantastic giveaway!
Well you in a box is fabulous. If I won my favorite item in then box would be the European paint colors as I’ve been wanting to try but not sure which color to start with.
I love the little compote, but have wanted to try your paint. My favorite is Boxwood.
How very generous and thoughtful of you. I have been a fan for only a year after purchasing your milk paint. I have so enjoyed your daily inspiration that you share. I am currently painting my kitchen cabinets with milk paint (which are turning out fab) so winning any of the milk paint line would be grand! The hemp oil I also totally love. And let’s not forget the dreamy hemp sheets. With all said winning anything in the give away basket would be exciting!
I love the compote and have always wanted antique hemp sheet! I love your paint, my favorite paint to use! So the paint would be great also! Want it all!! ?
It’s almost impossible to pick a favorite out of all the things that would be in the box, seriously! If I really had to choose a favorite it would be the hemp oil – I use it on so many pieces…things I’m working on as well as furniture I already have around the house. Even my front door got a dose of hemp oil! What a sweet and generous offer.
Oh dear, we have to just pick ONE??!!
Okay, it would be the bakelite knives. They remind me so much of the silverware from which we ate my grandmother’s wonderful cooking. Sadly they are long gone as is my grandmother, but looking at those knives brings back so many memories.
Marian, I’ve been following you for a looooong time. It’s been heartwarming to follow your successes. Your generosity brings a tear to my eye….
.
The blue & white baker’s twine, it’s a great pony tail tie back when I’m digging through treasure at the flea market!
Thanks for the simple pleasures….

I think any of your give aways would be just the best! I am most interested in your book as it will be full of Miss Mustard Seed inspiration.
Everything in the box is wonderful. My favorite is the ironstone covered dish. I have recently started collecting ironstone and would complement my pieces perfectly. It would look beautiful on my Thanksgiving table!
I love everything in the give away and since I moved into a new home, I could use each and every item!! It’s too hard to pick a favorite! It’s a three way tie between the paint, glitter, and the ironstone!!!
Well, I had to eenie meanie minie mo it as I could not pick a favorite and the Hemp sheet won. I would be thrilled with any one of the numerous items. Thank you so much for the chance at this. What fun!
Oh my gosh! Everything in this giveaway looks amazing – I’m torn between the blue and white compote and the beautiful ironstone dish. Wow!
hard decision…..iron stone and compote
I love, love, love reading your blogs, and the pictures? Heavy sigh! I pretend my house looks like yours (a girl can dream – right?). It would be an absolute thrill to win any one of the items you’re offering, but if I had to pick one, it would be the blue and white compote. But then the milk paint would be lovely also.
Test number 2 … are my comment s working?
We out here in the Northwest love all your work THANKS! I would specially love the antique hemp sheet. your paints are also very alluring. Ciao
I love that compote! Thanks for the giveaway
What a generous box of kindness and goodness you’ve put together in the spirit of paying it forward. I would be thrilled with any one of those pieces. From a utilitarian perspective, I would so enjoy experimenting with the paints, brush and hemp oil. From a tactile perspective the hemp sheet has my mind reeling with creative ideas but oh, would I LOVE to have that alarm clock on my night stand: which was my grandparents’ dining room lowboy. Thank you Marian, for putting your favorite things together Oprah-style!!!!
Thank you for your generous gift! I have Victorian chase lounge that I would like to be reupholstered so the vintage hemp sheet would be my favorite.
It’s all amazing! But the blue and white compote is adorable 🙂
You may get several thousand with this one! Hard to choose – the alarm clock, the paint brush, and your look book are my favorites!
oh my goodness! What a tremendous give away. I would have to say that my favorite would be the milk paint samples. It would be awesome to try out new colors for FREE!!!!!
I am a fairly new subscriber, so am still getting up to speed, but have to echo the other comments on your exciting and generous give away. I would love to try out your paint products and the hemp sheet!
Oh my heart! This is absolutely the best giveaway I have ever seen! I would be thrilled with any of the items but if I had to pick I guess I would choose the blue and white compote. I could use every single item though. Thank you for this chance Marion!
What a generous give away! I’ve been following you for a while, but haven’t yet tried the milk paint, so that in itself would be thrilling. But the thing that stands out most in my mind is the hemp sheet. I keep looking for some in my neck of the woods, and still haven’t found any.
Oh my goodness, I love everything and would use it all, but my favorite would be the clock. I love clocks. Thank you for the chance to win
My favorite thing is the milk paint!! Love the stuff and keep our local stockist in business! 🙂
the paint and accessories of course! And the hemp sheet and the ironstone! What an exciting box full!
Hard to pick just one, but probably the paint. I have never tried it before. I have your book and the paint brush (love it) already, so I am sure I can find something in my house to paint! Enjoy your blog so much!!
What a fantastic giveaway! Thank you for your generosity! I love everything, but especially like the 3 qts of milk paint and the 6 European paint samples. I have yet to break down and buy your milk paint. I would love to try it.
OH my! as with everyone else… so many LOVES there! love the compote! love the paint! glitter…. but I have been dying to try a hemp sheet since being introduced to those by you. WHAT a giveway! Thank you for making someone’s day!
Definitely the MMSMP samples! I have your color deck, but haven’t been able to decide which colors to choose!!! So many beautiful shades; it would be great to try several out! A close second would be that hemp sheet! I have a french bergere chair I’d LOVE to recover in it.
I would be very excited to get your book “Inspired You”. I am discovering the writer in me…..and I am loving it. I am a brand new entrepreneur within the creative realm and I love reading others’ work and how hey share their passion.
I would love the hemp sheet as the top but they are all nice, thank you.
Oh goodness, I’m with all your followers this is a give away beyond words. If one would have to choose for me it would be your books and the milk paint samples. I would feel humbled to receive such a gift. Today God put a young man in my presence struggling to buy a pair of safety boots that he needed to start a new job. After choosing the pair he wished to have, I walked with him talking about his new start in life up to the register and paid for his boots. What a feeling! He gave me the biggest hug with tears in his eyes. How I wish I could reach through this tablet and hug you for being a blessing that you are to all of your followers!
What a deliciously generous giveaway!!! Love the ironstone dish (along with all the other goodies)!!
I like the clock and the compote, but I think since I’ve not had the opportunity to use your paints, that I would have to choose the paints as a favorite. 🙂
How thoughtful of you! I have followed you for a couple of years and would love anything in your giveaway. I have to say the blue and white compote would probably be at the top of the list. Thank you for the inspiration you provide to all of us!
Thank you so much for being so generous with such great gifts – they are all fantastic! I have some great estate auction pieces that really need to be painted, so my favorite prize would have to be the milk paint. I absolutely love blue and white so the adorable compote and ironstone dish would be great inspiration pieces. Thanks!
Wow..What a wonderful selection of goodies! I would love every last thing, but the compote is my favorite. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Wow! Let the creativity begin! Your give away is sure to spark a frenzy of creativity in whoever becomes the lucky winner! I love the blue and white compote, the clock and so much more. But out of all of it, the paint and the paint brush would be my favorite. Paint is the gift that just keeps on giving! Thanks for encouraging us all to dream a little more this week.
I don’t I can choose my favorite but if forced the compote is pretty cute.
Oh my Marian … what a generous give-away. THANKS !!! Favorites … all of them … BUT have been trying locally to find Hemp oil and I get … ‘never heard of it’. Would love to try it and your milk paint. Love your blog and am so inspired by it. I have one of your books and would love the other. Thanks for all your do. Audrey Z. @ Timeless Treasures
I love all of the new ideas on the blog especially the decorating series! My favorite item is the alarm clock. It would inspire me to accesorize the top of my Miss Mustard seed painted bed side dresser.
My favorite is the blue and white compote. So fragile and beautiful. I do love the hemp oil though, and recently rubbed it on our re-sanded hardwood floors. Looks amazing!
PICK ME! PICK ME! I love everything in the box, but with Thanksgiving coming up, I would LOVE the covered ironstone dish. I have started a small collection, and you have been my inspiration!
Having already received your special paint brush, my favorite thing would have to be a sampler of your European colors with which to try that brush!
While I love it all! I have a thing for wooden boxes, I would paint it with milk paint:)
I just started following you and am so very excited. I too love iron stone so that is my favorite of all the goodies.
Wow, what a totally generous giveaway. I think my fav is hard to choose, but probably the hemp sheet since I haven’t seen anything like it available here in Australia. xx
Well, Marian, how are you ever going to read all these comments? I think there are nearly 1500!
I love your blog. You constantly impress me with all you do and have accomplished.
No one sells your milk paint in the Scottsdale area. I’d love to try it.
Thank you for all your blogs and all your hard work!
So hard to pick! I would love to play around with the paints, but I think my favourite item would be the alarm clock.
Oh my, that’s a very generous giveaway! My favorite thing? (Can I pick two?) The alarm clock and the paint! Or maybe the glitter!! Oh my, it’s all fabulous – really. 🙂 I love reading your blog – especially the room makeovers you are now doing.
Everything is lovely! But the paint would be my favorite thing!
I would love to win the compote! It would be my first piece of ironstone. Thanks for running the contest. Love your work and honesty throughout the blog! xoxox
how very generous of you! Each and every item is a treasure. Any one of those items would be wonderful to win…but that ironstone covered dish makes my heart go pitter patter. I don’t have any ironstone and have looking and looking for something this pretty.
Marian, I have enjoyed “getting to know you” thru your blog this past year. You are truly an inspiration in all aspects. I just purchased my first MMS bag of paint this past weekend(Boxwood) to jazz up a curb side find. It’s hard to pick just ONE favorite thing, since ALL of the box is like the best Xmas present ever!!! But my true weakness/love is the ironstone! And if, on Fri I get to be the lucky recipient, it would be THE BEST birthday present ever!!
What a beautiful & generous give away! All the items are awesome, but I would choose the white ironstone covered dish. I have started a small collection & would be thrilled to have a piece from you!
Definitely the milk paint. I’d like to try it out.
Of course the paint is awesome, but I love the alarm clock!! Thanks for such a generous giveaway!
Wow. What a decision. I want to learn how to use milk paint and how to sew with hemp sheets. Guess I would have to say the paint will most likely be used first. Thanks for the chance to enter.
Diane
I would be absolutely over the moon if I won this! I’ve used and love! your paint and product line. I also love your taste and decorating eye. If I HAD to pick a favorite, I would say the hemp sheet but honestly, it’s all amazing. 🙂 Thanks for hosting such a generous giveaway!
I would love that alarm clock. My son can’t seem to wake up to the modern electronic versions. Maybe this oldie but goodie would be more successful in waking him from the dead!
My favorite? The wooden tote….simple and beautiful. What a generous gift! Thank you!
Wow what a generous gift! I have been dreaming about trying your Milk Paint so that would have to be my favourite. I have some projects to use it on (that yellow is one of my favourites).
Love your blog, realness & generosity xox
Thank you for the opportunity!

I think it is a toss up of the milk paint or the blue compote!
Hi, maybe third time the charm, I like the brush. Good brushes are expensive and sometimes not in the budget, but a good brush will make whatever you’re paint go smoothly. I love your blog, lots of great pictures and great ideas.
As I read & scrolled down the post I kept thinking Wow these are some of my favorites things too. And I thought that would be my comment… until you said to choose ONE! How to choose one? There are some I know & love & others I would love to try. Like the samples of the European line. Oh to see those colors. And to try a hemp sheet, that would be great too. Love wooden boxes but the blue & white compote would be like having a personal gift in my home that says “I came from Miss Mustard Seed”. So that is it! Thank you
Hmmm . . . I love it all! But would really like to have fun with the paint!
Wow, what a generous box of items! I suppose I’d most look forward to sewing with that hemp sheet, but there are so many good things in there it’s hard to say. Would be quite a score for sure!
The favorite item is so hard to choose Love the compote in blue and white Love to HAVE the milk paint But a good brush is always needed in some way or other Like dusting a picture frame painting dry brushing etc Thanks for offering this giveaway

My first thought was for the alarm clock because something about it speaks to me. Maybe it’s because I feel like time is breathing down my neck and I am running out of time to do the spectacular thing I feel like I was born to do. Like time is running out to figure out my creative side and make my dreams come true but then I think…you idiot!…say the box because it holds ALL of the items I so desperately want to have/try.
As a follower of yours from “waaay back”, I have to say that as usual, every single thing in the box is absolutely YUMMY! If I have to narrow it down to one item (doggone close to impossible) I’d have to say the alarm clock! Keep up the inspirational, creative work & God bless you & your family!
I love it all, but the clock is a great find.
I love it all, but if I have to pick a favorite I would say the compote. I would put it on my desk to hold little things I like to keep within reach.
I love everything in the giveaway. If I would have to pick just one thing it would be the wooden tote.
Thank You.
So many treasures to choose just one! I would say the antique hemp sheet would be my choice because I have never seen one for sale here in Minnesota!
Not even sure how I found your blog but have followed you for years. Your decorating style is exactly what I would do if I had the time and materials. This giveaway is amazing and I would most like the chance to try your milk paints myself. You are a real inspiration. Have looked forward to FFF forever and drawn real inspiration from each post. Thanks for keeping it real, and for such a generous offer.
Tracy R
Wow that is a lot of goodies! My favorite would be the antique wooden tote but I would have enjoy all of it!
I am so in love with everything in this box, I don’t think I could choose. Perfection. Sigh. The hemp sheet… the compote… the alarm clock…. all the gorgeous Miss Mustard Seed yumminess….even the box. Love it all.
What a great collection of items! I loved it all, but I must say that the covered ironstone dish took my breath away!
Dear Marian,
What a lovely and generous gift to your readers. Those of us who paint for a living owe a great debt to you for all the blood, sweat and tears that accompany bringing new products to market. It is nice to know that laughter, happiness and friendship win out in the end. Best wishes for continued success. I have to say that a good brush is a lifesaver! Not to mention less of a burden on old hands.
Take care.
I love the clock! I use the milk paint all the time and I love that too- but I need a clock to put on my nightstand! The hemp sheet is awesome too- everything you do is awesome and inspiring!
ahhhh it’s so hard to choose one, but I would choose the alarm clock!! I’ve been on the lookout for one, but have not found the perfect one & that’s just perfect. And of course I would love all of the painting supplies for my business!! Thank you so much for this incredible giveaway!
Lots fo favorites but I am always a sucker fo a good brush!
What a beautiful collection of items! Too difficult to choose, so my favorite would have to be the one item not mentioned–the spirit of generosity. Thanks for helping to make my days brighter!
This is awesome! I can never come to your shows/sales so this is a great chance! I would love to have the paint brush, it would be wonderful to have the opportunity to use a great brush. The whole box is fabulous. Thanks
my favorite would have to be the PAINT! I’ve used some for the first time and love it! Can’t wait to find a piece for my room redo and use Boxwood to bring in some luscious green goodness!
I would love the paint. I really want to try the “Boxwood” color!
This is fabulous, Marion. I love EVERYTHING in your generous giveaway, but since I’ve just started to sew again, the antique hemp sheet leaps forward as my favourite. The clock is so cute; the milk paints would be put to excellent use on a couple of pieces that need beautifying; the ironstone dish would look great anywhere, and …. oh, decisions, decisions. It’s all wonderful!
If I have to pick just one ….. Gosh. I love the alarm clock. My grandmother had one just like it. I remember listening to the tick, tick, tick. And she would wind it every night … Just like clock work!
Best to you in all to come. Love your updates.
Karen
Wow!! An awesome box of goodies!!! I think everything is great but I have to say the paint is my favorite thing. Love love love milk paint!
I love that antique blue & white compote! Awesome giveaway & so very generous!!!
Ooh I’d love your book!
How exciting! I’d love the blue & white compote.
The paint! I would be most excited about the paint!
All the items are so special..It would truly be a blessing to receive any of these much less all of them. You have been a big inspiration to me and I have used many of your ideas. Love all of your products.
What a treasure trove.. You have such a generous spirit.
I have wanted to try the MMS paints for a long time, so the samples and supplies would be fantastic.
The blue and white dish is so lovely, but I’m overwhelmed by your generosity, as all of the items are amazing!
The clock would be my pick, I love to collect clocks! I have set my none working clocks to special “times” in my life, the birth of my children.
I guess if I have to chose only one… the Ironstone.
But I love everything down to the twine !
I am hard pressed to choose just one!!! But I suppose the milk paint samples and supplies would be my favorite. I have been painting with “Typewriter” just this morning. Thank you for offering such a generous giveaway!!
The European Colour paint samples…been dying to try them all. Thanks
The Paint, The Paint, The Paint!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for giving us a chance to win this Wonderful Giveaway!!!!!!!
What a great give away! I think I would choose the paint because, I’ve been wanting to try it for a long time. I have some chairs and a table that I’ve been wanting to paint, but can’t decide what color. I love the ironstone too. So many goodies.
All the pieces you’ve chosen are wonderful. Testing out the paint would probably be my favorite as I’ve been wanting to do that for some time. I’ve worked with chalk paint a lot but never the milk paint and your creations are truly beautiful so I’d love to give it a try. The compote is also so sweet and a great choice for the giveaway. 🙂
What a great giveaway; you are very generous! I have a few painting projects waiting in the wings, so I would love to have the paint, especially am interested in the new European paint colors. Thanks.
The hemp sheet — but only if it comes with your handiwork to transform it into a custom slipcover! Seriously, I would love for you to take slipcover orders. Otherwise, the compote is beckoning me. Thank you, Marian.
My mind us blown at the generous selection in your box! Oh how I want to win!! I think the hemp sheet excites me the most. I’ve never seen one!
What an awesome idea and such a huge giveaway! I love everything but my favorite would probably be the hemp sheet followed by that amazing compote. Thank you for a chance to win such beautiful things!
I love it all and would put each piece to equally great use! My favorite, would be the Euro paint sample set – I have been “gaga” over them ever since they made their debut!
I have an armoire just waiting to be painted so my favorite right now would be the milk paint!
I’m a little ashamed to say this, but I’ve been reading your blog for years, and owned a DIY business, but I’ve never tried any of your products. I’d be over the moon with any one of your products, but I’ve been wanting to try hemp oil since it came out. I work a lot with reclaimed wood and so many times I want to condition he wood without changing it much.
Honestly though, since I’ll likely never make the trip from AZ to see you at Lucketts or Chapel Hill, I’d be pretty excited just to have a “Miss Mustard Seed” sales tag :).
Such treasures! But the blue & white compote would look lovely in my dining room. : )
I would love “to play” with the glass glitter. I love all things that sparkle!
Well, it’s hard to choose just one thing as everything you have included is interesting in it’s own way! But, as soon as I saw the alarm clock, that was it for me! Just something about those old clocks. My Mom always had a “big” Ben and the “little” Ben wind-up alarm clocks on her night stand. Brings back some childhood memories, thanks!
The sample set of the milk paint colors.
Not sure if my first comment posted, so I am trying again….Glass glitter would be one of my favorite things.
I love both the hemp sheet and the clock!!!
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to win this! I collect blue and white transferware, and stumbled upon your blog through that… So the compote dish would be my favorite thing. Although the ironstone would be beautiful too! And I have been searching for a piece of furniture that “needs” me to try milk paint, so the samples would be so great too. I love following your blog!
I love your paint so trying new colors would be great but being a collector of blue and white the compote is calling me. This is a beautiful “box” thank-you.
So many favorites. But it would be the covered ironstone. It’s simply beautiful.
I would love to try some milk paint!! i have a dresser that I just don’t know what to do with it and milk paint would be so good to transform this dresser!! Thanks so much for the giveaway!
I wish i lived back in Pa, just to go to one of your classes!!!
The paint would be my favorite – definitely the paint. I’m so excited about giving your paint a try!
Hi Marian! Thank you for your blog ~ I love it. Thank you also for this chance you’ve given us to share all these wonderful things. I love them all. I am new to painting furniture and have been wanting to get one of your paintbrushes and some of your paint. I wanted to buy one of your hemp sheets to cover one of my chairs. I’m waiting to receive three of your glitters from Decor Steals ~ I Love glitter! But what I would like the most is your book! Thank you again!
Hello! Do you remember me? I asked about transitioning spaces and you used it for a Design Ramblings! I’m still over the moon that you used it. 🙂 The process is coming along nicely and things are clicking. Anyway, I am so excited you’re doing this giveaway! There are truly so many great things in “the box”, it’s hard to choose just one! That hemp sheet!…The little clock!…Oh my goodness! That compote!! I think that’s my favorite! I’ve wanted one for a long time but they’re so expensive! and that darling ironstone… then there’s the paint! Seriously.. just everything would be amazing to win! Thank you for giving us the chance to win these great gifts! You have a great heart Marion. 🙂
Blessings,
Linette
I’d like to try your milk paint, but I’ve got a newborn right now, and painting sounds exhausting! So, I’m going to choose the solid ironstone bowl with the lid as my favorite. It’s beautiful, already!
What a gorgeous little clock! That’s my favorite.
The quart of milk paint! I have always wanted to try it . Thanks
Definitely the clock!! Have been on the search for one such as this for a while.
What an amazing giveaway! I don’t know which item to pick, but I do especially love the blue and white compote and the MMS European colors!
Karen U
LOVE THE COVERED IRONSTONE DISH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tough to choose. But either the ironstone. Do not have any. Or simply the glitter. Thanks
Oh, picking just one is so tough. I do love that sweet little alarm clock though!
Thanks so much!
The hemp sheet! It is what I regret not buying at The Market at Chapel Hill!
Love the covered ironstone dish
Wow what a wonderful giveaway!! I think my two favorite things are the widen tote and the alarm clock. Of course I’d love the MMS products so that I could do some more painting and try a couple of the products I haven’t used yet. Thanks for the opportunity! 🙂
Love it all.. but Paint, Paint, Paint! I have a family room makeover in my near future. Love you, love the blog, and would love the chance to win. Thank you
It’s really difficult for me to choose just one item too … but I LOVE clocks and the little alarm clock is really adorable!
Hard to choose. Hemp oil for Miss Mustard Seed products and the wooden tote for found items.
Definitely the hemp sheet-you have me hooked on them!!!❤️❤️
Wow! What a great bunch of items, how can we choose just one! I’d have to say the paint, I’ve never used milk paint before so I’m anxious to try it:)
I would love to try your milk paint. But, the ironstone is so pretty. I guess it’s a tie! Thank you for the chance to win.
Since I already have your book…paint, paint, paint! I have a big family room makeover in my near future. I love you, love your blog, and would love the chance to win.
The paint, the paint
Favorite…my mind is going in several directions. What could I do with a win like that. I know just where that ironstone and clock would go…maybe those would be my favorite. But to restore a piece or several pieces of furniture with your milk paint, what a gift that would definitely be a favorite. But those hemp sheets are such simple beauty those are absolutely a favorite. Thanks for generous giveaway.
Marian,
I just want to say what a pleasure it’s been to follow your journey with your blog posts. I look forward to them.
I would love to win the samples of the European colors. They are so beautiful. I love all of the items but that would be my favorite.
My wife collects antique clocks and I would be her hero if I gave her that clock and everything else in the box.
The paint of course!! Hope it is me!
Wow Marion, that is all so overwhelmingly generous – but that just reflects the kind soul we “see” through your posts. I love everything you have chosen and would be ecstatic to win any of them but mostly I would love to try your paints. Living in Australia means we don’t get to try them and as a long time painter of walls, floors and furniture – my husband declares if it stands still I’ll paint it! – I would love to try it. Thanks so much for the opportunity to perhaps sample your wares 🙂
Is love to win some of the MMS paint! I’m dying to try it out!
Thanks!
Dionne
…another “Miss Mustard Seed in a Box”! How exciting!!! Who could not LOVE all the items in the giveaway?!! I’m gonna have to say the wooden tote has caught my eye…
Thank you for your generous giveaway offer. Love you!
The hemp fabric for sure! It reminds of long gone days growing up, where linen napkins were used at every meal, and at night dreams were covered in hand embroidered linen sheets.
Oh my. I love it all!!!! However, I think I would be most excited to try the hemp oil. fingers crossed!!!!
WOW, what a package. I have wanted a paint brush since you introduced them, but I am also in love with that ironstone dish. So wish I lived in your town. Thanks Marian.
So many things to love but my favorite is the blue & white compote. Beautiful!! It would be look wonderful in our almost complete new kitchen. We have some glass cabinets that I am displaying my ironstone, etc. It would fit in perfectly!
Are you kidding? Any of those items would be on my list of “super duper mega awesome” to win! Honestly, I’m even getting excited about the idea of winning baker’s twine :). It’s been a long time since I’ve wanted to win a giveaway more. Actually, come to think of it, I can’t think of the last time I participated in a giveaway *laugh*.
Thanks for running the giveaway. What awesome items!
Oh my. I love it all!!! But most excited to try the hemp oil. Fingers crossed.
Honestly everything in the giveaway excited me but if I win I really look forward to see all you new European colors. Thank you
Everything is just lovely, but that blue and white compote tickles my fancy!
Wow decisions, decisions! Not sure the paint? the compote? ironstone? Would love to win cause I have never used the paint.
The ironstone is my favourite and so impossibly hard to find down in this part of the world. It would be such a treasure. ?
I love the blue and white compote and I would love a copy of your look book. It is hard to choose just one thing! What a wonderful giveaway, thank you!!!
My favorite is the compote but I would also love the paint and the brush.
I would love to try the milk paints! I have been waiting to fit some into my budget. I have a table that is old and needs a face lift. I just discovered this blog and milk paints. I am so grateful that I found you!
The little antique clock is precious and would look just perfect in my bedroom but I would love to try the Miss Mustard Seed Paints on one of my art chairs.Thanks for the giveaway Marian.
Annabelle
The antique hemp sheet……oh, the possibilities!
That’s like asking a kid what their favorite Christmas present is! I have several too. LOVE the clock and compote but a sampling of your paint isn’t something to sneeze at either! Great giveaway! You are very generous. Love your blog.
Cheryl
All just beautiful things here but I love the alarm clock the most.
Everything is fantastic, but the paint is my favorite. I have been lacking inspiration lately with my furniture. I feel the milk paint (which I have never used before) would be great inspiration. Fingers crossed.
My favorite item is definitely the hemp sheet.
Such a nice, generous box. The covered ironstone dish would look gorgeous beside any milk paint furniture item.
The alarm clock is gorgeous as is everything in this box. I would dearly love to use your paints one day, the colors you’ve created are beautiful! Thank you.
Most definately the glitter glass!
hard to pick just one, but I guess it would be the paint, no, wait, the clock, no, …..the brush, maybe the compote,….. oh my…close my eyes and point to one…..I love them all and already have in mind what, where and how to use them if i should be soooo lucky to win. This is an amazing giveaway!
Thank you!!
Oh goodness!! This would be so super! Your paint brush, your MMS Milk Paint and the compote would be really great, as well as the rest too! Then that dresser downstairs could get done!! 🙂
I love to sew and the hemp sheet would so fun to work with. But I would love to try your milk paints some day!
I love all the things in your “Miss Mustard Seed in a Box!” But my favorite is the paint. I love how your painted pieces look and want to transform something of my own. My second favorite is the antique wooden tote. Adore vintage boxes that I can fill up with pretty things.
I would love to try the paint! I have been dreaming about it for EVER and have some projects (inspired by you) in the wings! I also have a thing for that string, as well! Thanks for your wonderful blog and cool ideas, Marian!
What a hard choice, to pick a favorite amongst this group of wonderful things! I think the hemp sheet is the best since it is a blank canvas and can become anything. Thanks for this giveaway! You have inspired me to get to work on a few projects I have around here.
I love everything in the box. I love transfer ware, pedestals, hemp, paint, you name it, but ironstone is very hard to find in my area. I would love the beautiful white ironstone covered dish.
for me, it would be the blue compote. Such versatility in all seasons! Little bits of holiday treats on a side table, or for everyday cookies and coffee with a friend. Pretty handmade soaps on the bathroom vanity, my cherished collection of miniature glass ornaments that once hung on my great grandparents tree. The list is endless, and best of all, it would be a forever reminder of the fabulous MMS giveaway! many blessings to all , I know we all have our fingers crossed!
I’m new to the milk paint craze, but I must say I’ve jumped on the wagon gung ho! So, best item for me is definitely THE PAINT! Love your paint, and 3 new free colors to play with is awesome!
Hi Marian,
I would be most excited for the bakelite knives, because my great grandfather worked for the bakelite company, and he invented the plastic injection molding machine which made all the bakelite products possible! The patent belonged to the company because he was their employee, but he got $100 and a trip to the World’s Fair to demonstrate the process!
Thanks for all your hard work, encouraging posts, and fantastic paint products!
Sue
Love your posts! My favorite item would be the white iron stone❤️❤️❤️
Love everything especially the milk paint! The antique blue & white compote really grabbed my attention in the photo. I already purchased your book but would LOVE to gift it to my daughter at Christmas if I won this amazing package. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration.
Oh my goodness! How to choose just one?!? The alarm clock….or the compote….or the tureen….or the sheet….wait the paint, or the books!
I would love to try out the new range of European colours…they look divine. Thanks so much for this opportunity 🙂
I LOVE all of it, but i would absolutely love to paint some pieces around my home with the paint! i also do love that wooden tote, clock and compote. Thank you so much for the chance to win…:-)
Marion, I love your paint and have most of the items in the line, but I would be most excited about receiving the linen. I have no idea what “good quality” looks like or feels like, so it would be a learning experience as well as a big win!!
What a great giveaway! All of it would be a real treat! My favorite would be the European paint colors and iron stone! The hemp sheet would also be nice. Well, I guess I could just say everything!
We used your glass glitter and decorated our white pumpkins tonight. They look so dreamy and my girlfriends and I had so much fun making them. I love everything about your give away box, but I have to say my favorite is the covered ironstone dish. It’s very sweet. A very happy thought!
Wow, what a generous giveaway! Definitely difficult to pick just one item. I have been curious to try your milk paint and this would be be a wonderful opportunity! I look forward to your blog, as it’s inspirational!
The iron stone would be my fave! It’s all fantastic ?
We used your glass glitter and decorated our white pumpkins tonight. They look so dreamy and my girlfriends and I had so much fun making them. What a generous give away! I love everything about your give away box, but I have to say my favorite is the covered ironstone dish. It’s very sweet. A very happy thought!
Everything is great. Your posts are an enjoyable read and I thank you. I would love to try all the paint colors and paint supplies. There is something rewarding about seeing an item evolve into a beauty. Wishing you continued success.
Definitely the paint!
Wow! What a fabulous giveaway! My favorite would be the hemp sheet – I would get started right away on making that ottoman from your book!!!!
I would love to try your paint.
Love it all, but the blue and white compote really caught my eye! Thanks for the inspiration.
My favorite is the alarm clock, followed closely by the paint samples! I love trying new colors 🙂
I already love your paint and have since ditched most all chalk paints for it! It is all so glorious and would be treasured, but if I just had to choose, I would be most excited to try out the hemp sheet ( and glitter) Picking one is really really difficult. ….
My favorite would have to be your Milk Paint followed by the clock. What a wonderful collection for a giveaway. Thank you for offering everyone the opportunity to win these items!
LOVE the linen !!! It all looks fabulous!! PICK ME!!
I love the blue and white compote, and also the wooden box.
O wow what to chose, but the alarm clock sure is sweet little thing. Love the numbers on it.
Everything is lovely and who ever wins this will be very lucky.
You’ve surpassed so many dreams for the young woman you are! Your team and you have done a great job at being true to the focus and look of your brand. I love the alarm clock most, because it reminds me about the value of each day, as time quickly passes.
Giving thanks for what tomorrow holds,
Barbara
Your brush!
I love the antique alarm clock and all of your paints and supplies. Actually, let’s just make it everything!
My favorite thing would be the milk paint! What an awesome box of play pretties! So many projects, and a lot of inspiration. How cool is that! Thanks for the chance.
Love them all but my favorite would be the wooden tote. It could be used for so many different things.
Is all of it an acceptable answer??? I think what I would love the most though is the little alarm clock. I’ve started a collection of antique clocks and parts and it would just fit right in!! Thanks so much for this incredible giveaway!
I’ve been following your blog since March. I don’t even remember how I stumbled upon you, Marion but am I thankful that I did. You inspire me to try things I would normally think I couldn’t do. Thanks to your awesome tutorials!! Your give away is crazy good! Favorite item – compote! Thanks for doing what you do! By the way – I was also a kid who loved to draw house plans, too funny!
I adore the alarm clock. The patina is perfect and those stylized numerals are so cool! Thank you for sharing your talents with your followers, MMS. “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.”
Love..love…love it all! Favorite ironstone and of course some milk paint! It all really is extra special! ??? Thanks Marion!
My favorite is the MMS paint but the entire package is fantastic. Thanks for the giveway!
wow!!! What a generous box of goodies someone’s going to be blessed with! I love all of it, but would look forward to the paint the most!
I love all of it – and would love to try the paints. But I do especially love the alarm click – exactly what I gave been looking for!
What a fantastic box! I can’t pick one favorite, it’s all great.:)
After thinking about this a bit – the antique clock. Clocks are something my husband likes to collect. After showing it to him, he liked it. Yes, I shared it with him – my way of including him and Yes, I would give the clock to him. The clock reminds me of a simpler time (okay I didn’t Intend on the pun, but… ) and something I never seem to have enough of.
It all looks just lovely! I would love to try the European colors & that brush! Thanks for all the years of inspiration & information. JW
My favorite part would have to be the European paint line!! Thanks for the chance of this amazing giveaway 🙂
What an absolutely lovely giveaway. Someone will be so blessed!
What a beautiful gift you’ve selected. It is hard to pick one favorite thing. I would most love to paint with your milk paint, have a copy of your book to feel inspired and the beautiful blue and white compote and iron stone.
What a great giveaway. it’s difficult to choose one item, but I’ve never used milk paint and would love to try your brand
Thank you for offering this giveaway to international readers as well, that’s awesome. It’s hard to pick a favourite, but I think for me it would be the alarm clock, it’s gorgeous and the numbers on it are really cute!
I would love it all!! I’ve been milk painting everything in the house lately. I would really love the books to get some more great ideas! Thanks for the chance to win!
What an amazing stash of goodies! Hard to pick a favorite but for me it would probably be the glitter glass or the hemp sheet or the ironstone, maybe the compote! I love everything!
My eyes were so big reading about this giveaway. What a wonderful collection of things to inspire. I recently tried your paint for the first time and was so happy with the end results.i would love to try more painting projects and use the hemp oil too. But I agree with others that any one item would be wonderful to receive. Thank you for your inspiration.
Can’t hardly take it…super power giveaway! 🙂 The paint is at the top of my list but there would also be something awesome about getting anaked ironstone piece from the Queen of Ironstone! 🙂 P.S…that alarm clock tips the scales on the whole thing! Congrats in advance to the lucky recipient and a huge thank you for the chance at it!
The paint would be my favorite, as I am in need of a fresh, new beginning….
This is such a lovely basket of possibilities. :o)
Wow, you are sooooo generous! I have been wanting to try your paint ever since I stumbled on your website last year, so I would have to say, definitely your paint. BUT kinda wanting to try the hemp sheet and great clock….okay the pedestal bow, too, lol. Well alrighty then, everything is so awesome!
My fav things in the “box” are all that paint, brush and hemp sheet! If only I could get my hands on that! All the other extras are lively too but I’m in a painting kinda mood! Thank you and God bless 🙂
Oh, my goodness! Now you have my full attention, as well as a comment. Thanks for a chance to win, basically anything, but especially a coveted hemp sheet! I’m excited for you. Good luck everyone!
I would love your paint and the covered ironstone dish! Beautiful! Thank you!
I’m 78 years young and I look forward to your post every day. I would have a hard time picking just one thing, but the 3 quarts of paint sounds very tempting because I have a dresser I’m wanting to paint. I’m also pulled towards the hemp sheets because I love to sew. I’ve enjoyed watching your business grow.
Wow, what a great package! I have been looking for an alarm clock just like that so that would be my favorite piece. Thanks, Marian!
I am dying to try the paints but I have totally fallen head over heels for that blue and white compote! Love! Love! Love!
Wow! This looks incredible! I think my favorite thing would be…everything:) but since I have to choose, I think I’ll say the alarm clock.
My heart skipped a beat when I saw your give away! I would love to try your paint! The paint would be my favorite of all!
Any piece would be wonderful. But I love the paint.
Wow what a wonderful prize. I love all the items. Favorites are the iron ware, And all the paints. Has everything I need to redo the items in my ‘to do’ stash waiting for their makeover. Oh how I hope I win. I’m so exited looking at all the prizes.
The paint is my favorite thing in your box. I have always wanted to try your paint. I have loved your style and heart over the years. I’m grateful God is restoring your excitement!
If I could really have MMS in a box, for just one day, I’d take that! But I’d surely drool all over the Bakelite handled knives! Have enjoyed watching you grow and succeed. Wishing you continued blessings, joy, and, contentment. Thank you for a chance to win wonderful MMS things!
Wow what a awesome give away! If I have to pick just one item I would say the paint as I have no place locale to purchase mms paint. But, would love to have any of the items!!
Hmmm, I love it all. I have to say the hemp oil intrigues me the most. From your description it seems like it will add a special depth to furniture and projects. But, I also love the blue and white compote, I can see it in my bathroom with a rustic bar of yummy smelling soap. Each and every item seems like a treasure in its self. Can’t wait!
I would love to have the blue and white compote! And the paint, oh and the alarm clock, ok can’t just pick one! What a generous give away!
I love everything in the box (thank you for your generosity!) but I’m most interested in the paints. I have (and read several times) your book and I just ordered your MMSMP Look Book One, so I would give those items to a friend who has the same design sensibilities. She would love them. I have been researching your paints and I have an old secretary desk and a Duncan Phyfe nightstand that I want to paint. I think your paints would fit the bill! I want to start an ironstone collection and the covered dish would be the beginning of that collection. Blue is my favorite color (I know that you can relate 😉 ). I love the blue and white compote. In other words, I love everything! Thank you for this opportunity!
A very generous giveaway to be sure! I would have to say the antique blue and white compote is my favorite. We have a lot of dinner parties, dessert parties etc… It would be a beautiful piece that would come tagged with a story! Who can top that?! Those pieces are practically impossible to find in Southern California.
what a wonderfully generous gift! I love the paints, but I also love the ironstone with lid! I’d use it for my jewelry by the kitchen sink! you are an encouragement to all of us women that juggle business and our homes ( with help from family and friends. they are blessings in our lives. Amen!) thank you so much for sharing your talent 🙂
Blessings,
aimee
My favorite thing is that your giveaway is open to international readers! In terms of the actual giveaway, if I had to chose, I think I’d first go for the milk paint, then the ironstone, then the lovely alarm clock, then your look book, etc.
I am so interested in your pain. Would love the samples~
Oh Miss Mustard Seed, what a fabulous, fantastic giveaway! Which item is my favorite? The paint or the twine or your books or the ironstone or… They would all be my favorite, but I guess I like the clock best. Thanks for a chance for such a wonderful giveaway!
Gah! First of all thanks for a continued entertaining and inspirational blog. While I never found it not so, your renewed enthusiasm in fact shows and you’ve definitely kicked it up a notch recently. Fun! As for That Box! Naming just one thing is so hard (the paint! The glitter! That compote!!) but if I must I’d say my heart beats a little faster for the hemp sheet in particular. I’ve been wantng to try a more advanced upholstery project and the hemp sheet would be pretty perfect. Keep slaying it Marion! We’re with you!
WOW! I think following your blog is like getting a gift/surprise everyday, but now this! I have to pick just one!!!?? This is an amazing giveaway – how generous of you! If it came down to one, it would be your paint. Yes, definitely, MMS Paint.
With my love of antiques and painting, I love it all!! But I also love sewing and I’d love to have the opportunity to sew with hemp and to make some pretty things for my home and some gifts for a few special people!.
I’m intrigued with the glitter glass. You are very generous to be sharing such a wonderful giveaway. Thanks for sharing your talents. I especially love your tutorials.
Can I say that compote dish? Of course, I adore the paint too ?
Oh my goodness, that alarm clock is exactly what I have been looking for! And I love Inspired You!Thank you for the chance!
WOW! now thats a FABulous giveaway!
I would love to try your milk paint in any color (white & sea turquoise greens/blues, even the gray), I need a new brush, the oil looks intriguing to try, the hemp sheet looks marvelous…so many goodies to choose which is my favorite. I choose the milk paint
Thank you for the opportunity
The covered ironstone dish or the alarm clock! Tough decision!! 8)
What a hard decision! This is a fantastic giveaway, the best. So, I went back through and remembered what kinda got my interest more than all the other great pieces. Had to work at deciding because there were many choices. Decision: Antique Hemp sheet wins.
How generous and exciting!! I love everything, but if I had to choose I would say the hemp sheet and the compote!!
ooooooooohhhh, so many beautiful things that I love!!!!!!
wowww, such a generous giveaway!!! I guess if I have to choose, I’d choose as my favourite item the antique blue & white compote… although there’s nothing I DON’T love in this ‘pile’! Thankyou Marian, you’re a sweety! so fun to join in.
Amazing how you do all you do, you’re a definite inspiration!
Ooooooo! So many choices! The…hemp sheet 🙂
I’m such a fan. I especially love the blue and white compote.
Ooh so tough, I’d say as a painted I’d love to get my hands on the PW brush!!! And the ironstone, swoon!
I look forward to receiving your blog in my inbox everyday, you have inspired me to paint furniture and rekindled my love for interiors. It would be exciting for me to use your products after years of using Annie Sloan Chalk paints. Being an international reader I’d cherry pick a few must have items, it goes without saying the paint and gorgeous brush would be top of my list along with your books. I’d then like to share some of the other items with another blog reader.
The 16th is a very special day for me, it’s the day I sign contracts to buy a 300 year old cottage in the village of Downton, after spending most of the last 25 years in military accommodation. Good luck to all who enter. JB x
My favorite item wouldn’t b the hemp sheet. I love old linens to use on beds and as upholstery. I don’t sew but I have a few pieces such as grain sacks and one day I’ll get my chairs recovered. I’ve washed old sheets rolled them up and put them in freezer before ironing. Someone told me to try that once. There’s nothing like getting in a bed at night with crisply, ironed clean sheets. My friends roll with laughter as to the way I describe how I contort my body to get in the freshly made bed so as not to disturb the tucked in sides of the sheet. I’m sure I sleep better this way. …it’s like when you were a child and your mom tucked you in to sleep tight.
I love the things you do and I especially like the direction your blog is taking. It is an education that can be applied in our own homes. Every thing in that Miss Mustard Seed box speaks home to me but the blue and white compote is so beautiful. I have not been decorating with those colors much in this house but it has inspired me and reminded me of a few blue and white pieces I have. Since we are finishing a little guest room that will soon be ready for decor I think the blue and white will be the inspiration for that room.
Oh so hard to choose my favorite but if I have to choose one item it would have to be The ironstone. You have inspired me to start a collection ?
Hands down, my favorite thing is the clock, but I’d love to try more MMS milk paint colors!
I love your blog and anticipate new posts every day. I love all the items in your box, but I would be most excited about the milk paint and ironstone. I have used several of your milk paint products and have loved them all. The hemp oil is amazing!
I would love to try your paint! I’ve used milk paint before but never yours. Also would love to try your wax….
What a great giveaway. The antique blue and white compote struck my fancy, although there are many close seconds.
The box alone is pretty cool, but I definitely like the idea of trying out your paint samples. Aside from your email, is there another way to contact you? I know you’re busy and are not able to respond to each email, but I’d really like to share something with you, if you’re interested. Thanks for this giveaway.
I would definitely love the alarm clock from this most generous gift, I would be so engrossed in creating wonderful things inspired by the other contents of this fabulous collection that I would definitely need the bell to remind me that my projects cannot take all of my time and that my Husband and Son need me too! Thank you for the inspiration and thank you to my Husband Chris and Son David, the two Saints in my life who patiently and lovingly put up with me, even when I have paint in my hair, threads hanging from my clothes and sparkles on my face. All of which cause much hilarity at the dinner table even if we are sharing the dining room with another one of my projects.
Love it all!
Ow WOW!!! I would love to win this amazing prize, my favourite thing in the box would be the look book. Because in the evenings my husbands eyes are on me as I am always walking around our house looking at ways to improve it, I would also love the hemp fabric can’t beat the feeling you get when your adding more amazing fabrics to your pile of other amazing fabrics ? to be honest to win any of it would be amazing it’s all my taste and it would fit perfectly into my home. Thank you
OMGosh! The paint! It would be the paint! I just love it! I have 4 chairs that are on my project list. Your gift is so generous and you will make someone a very happy camper! Thank you for sharing your skills with us!
I want that awesome alarm clock !!!! Put it by my night stand…TY…
If I were to win the giveaway my favorite piece would be the blue and white compote.
I would love the milk paint, I haven’t tried it yet. I have a few projects I have to get started!
Love it all but if I must pick just one, I like the blue and white compote!
I would love it all, but if I have to choose, maybe the ironstone. Thank you for your interesting blog!
ciao form Italy
I have been reading your blog and following everything you do for o long time now but still haven’t tried your paint as I live in England but I Would love to just get my hands on some of your paint to prove to myself that it is as good as everyone says it is.
As always, lifting my spirits when I need it most…. Your journey keeps me inspired! The first thing I look for in my inbox every day is your mail. Thank you for the daily inspiration!
I definitely have to choose your paints from the list of items… Heck, can I please become your distribution agent here in South Africa 😉 …. I always believe, put your thoughts out to the Universe and see what comes back.
Many Blessings, Wanita xx
Oh, how I would love to come to your glass glitter class! People ask me all the time in the shop what they could glitter if they purchased the GGG I have for sale in the shop. I’d love to know what that class entails. AND it’s on my birthday! Regarding the MMS in a box….it’s a tough choice between the hemp sheet and the alarm clock…..the whole thing screams MMS!
Hi Marian,
Thank you so much for giving all of us the excitement of ‘maybe’ winning this delightful gift! I thought I’d be ineligible as I’m in Australia, so I’m truly very appreciative and excited! Even if I don’t receive your lovely gift, it’s just joy in thinking, for a short while, I might! Thank you!
I love your paint and have used it quite a bit, as well as your other products. The beautiful glitter is really catching my eye, but I’ve nothing specific to use it on…. well at this stage anyway! But today I’ve Spring-cleaned our bedroom, and have been sitting contemplating what to use on an old oak sideboard I’ve just brought into the room. So! I would really love to win the blue and white compote, to go in my blue and white bedroom. I love old crockery!
Thanks so much Marian. Very much appreciated. Hope your day is filled with the sort of happiness you give to others.
Cheers, Liz.
The antique blue and white compote would be loved at my house! That would definitely be my favorite thing.
Oh my goodness what a wonderful giveaway. Such a gift that truly is giving of more than just products. It is giving of yourself and inspires others in many ways.
My favorite item would actually be several that make up the gift of inspiration, beauty, simplicity and sharing.
I would start with the clock and tell myself now is time that I should take the plunge and start a project. I’ve wanted to try my hand at something but lacked the confidence. Next would be the Inspire Me book, gaining confidence to let thoughts and ideas “stew” in the delicate ironstone. Of course with all the variety of the other items, one would be sure to deliver a finished product that just might rival that beautiful compote. Thank you for your generosity! I so enjoy your site and blog.
Winning the box of goodies would be like Christmas, my birthday and mother’s day rolled into one. I absolutely love everything in the box – a true selection of what you and your style stand for. I think my favourite is the compote. It is really beautiful. It is the first time I hear the word ‘compote’ though. (I am from Belgium and English is not my mother tongue.) In Flemish we use the word compote for apple sauce so to my ears it has a nice, warm, homely feel to it…
I have a hard time making decisions. I’d like to try the paint. But I truly love that old alarm clock. But I’ve never seen hemp fabric and I do have glitter but this way I could share!!! Yes that darling footed floral dish is darling with soap on it or candies. But then I have zero pieces of ironstone ( I’ve never ever seen it out here at antique stores!) so I’m all over the place. Oh you said pick JUST one???? Then I pick Hemp oil.
Holy Cow!!!! What a fantastic prize!!!My favorite would be the covered ironstone dish (because I have never owned one) and your paint (because I have never tried it and would love too). Soooooooo awesome, I can’t wait to see who the winner is, thanks for the try!!!!
Bonjour Marian.
I have no words … it is so wonderful. First, i’ll choose the paints and in second … the hemp sheet because it is impossible to find in France ! Where are they ? I am joking ! I am happy you appreciate so much French things.
Merci for your blog which is so inspiring and for the time you spend for your readers.
This giveaway is incredibly generous! Oh how I would love to be the lucky winner. It’s all beautiful but I would firstly love it have a go at using your products. I’ve only just recently found your blog and feel very inspired to paint some pieces I have. We’ve recently moved to a cottage in the Highlands of Scotland so there’s a big long list of projects to have a go at. Here’s hoping, fingers and toes crossed!
The milk paint!
I am having a difficult time as i would love “all” of the items so much. Hmmmm I guess its a real close call, I love your paint (have purchased) and the glitter (I adore glitter), but that hemp sheet is sooo tempting. Thank you for the opportunity to perhaps win, and to dream about what i could do if I did.
What a fabulous giveaway! I was “oohing” and “aahing” the entire way through this post. A real tough choice, but I’d have to say that the 3 quarts of Milk Paint would be my favorite. I’ve been dying to try it. But, then yet another decision: Which 3 colors? Oh my!
The whole box looks fabulous! I would love to play with the Glass Glitter though 🙂
My favorite…all the possibilities of transformations with the paints!
Love the combination, especially love the compote, blue being my favourite colour.
Wow, what a generous box! I would be most excited about trying all those new paint colors! And having some pieces in my home that you personally picked out would be a sweet connection. Thanks!
What a treasure box, I love everything in it, but would be most excited about the MMS paints and the hemp sheets. Keep up the good work, Marion, you are truly gifted and an inspiration!
I’ve been dying to try the hemp oil. Your products are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G and you are SUCH an inspiration! 🙂
The paintbrush! When they were first introduced they sold out in a flash. I fortunately was able to order one through your design partner. I can’t express how much I love your paintbrush! The contoured handle fits so comfortably in my hand, and the angled brush bristles have always been my favorite. It was designed for women, by women.
…. glass glitter ! I am not sure what that is, but it sounds magical . I would love to know how to use it and see where it may take me .
Oh my G! I would cry if I were to win this!! I get goosebumps just thinking of it!
There are just TO MANY THINGS in this box to pick a favouri.
But if it had to be one, it would be the books ( SO HAAAARD!) because I just love getting inspired from you!
The paint! We have many items to paint here on the farm, we would use all that paint up quick!
hi definitely the Milk Paint! I so want to experiment but have been a little scared.
So hard to choose! I love everything, but if I to pick a favorite it would be the blue and white compote!
What an amazing and generous giveaway! I am in love with all things ‘old’ and have recently been redecorating my home with treasures, collected over several years, which have been patiently waiting in storage. Your paint (purchased locally through Sue at My Painted Door) has been instrumental in accomplishing my redecorating dream in a ‘Victorian/country’ flavour. Although the beautiful compote, clock, wooden box, ironstone dish, and other antique finds would be additional treasures that would be at home in my decor, what would be most exciting are the Miss Mustard Seed paints and other supplies. I would have to say my favourite item would be the samples of your European color line! There are so many things I could use these on! Thank you for the inspiration your paints have been and will yet be as I continue with projects ‘waiting in the wings’.
Wow, you are amazing! I love everything and would love to try the milk paints and the ironstone dish would look lovely in my dining room. Thanks for a generous giveaway!
I LOVE the hemp sheet !! But the milk paint is a very close second.
What a fun and creative giveaway 🙂
I would love the paint to re-do some well loved furniture!
Hemp sheet….
The compote bowl is beautiful and definitely is my favorite from this wonderful collection of MMS goodies.
The Look Book! I could use that inspiration along with ALL the other items in the box to create a look that says, “this is SO Nancy but I see some Miss Mustard Seed influence here….” Ha!!
Just one fav?? Sheet, no the milk paint, no the book! O
K the hemp sheet. Too fun!
My favorite thing in the box is the love that you pour into everything you do. You have such a kind and generous spirit. I didn’t know there was such a thing as brush soap, and often wondered how to best clean up brushes used to apply hemp oil.
I love all the items in this giveaway, but I would choose the paint, one of your recent posts inspired me to change a room in my home using the color boxwood. While typing this entry I’m thinking how many people you inspire everyday with your paint and ideas your hard work has paid off, thank you!!
A favorite???? I want it all but have a project that I would love to use Glass Glitter in Tiara on. This giveaway good to be true!!!
I love it all!! But my favorite item would have to be that amazing compote!! It is wonderful with all the amazing detail!!
Your blog has always been such a huge source of inspiration so thank you. I can’t decide what I would love the most probably the paintbrush, nothing beats a great paintbrush.
What a generous giveaway! Have always wanted to try milk paint and the hemp sheet sounds like a great new experience. Your posts are always interesting.
I love, love, love that blue and white compote! I have a small collection of ironstone as well but I have never come across a compote with blue flowers – it is gorgeous!
I love everything, but my favorite are the European paint colors! I would love to use them in a couple of projects for our new house.
Leanne.
My favorite item in you givaway would have to be a combination of the milk paint and bonding agent. I love the finish and colors of your milk paint line but the bonding agent takes it to the next level. I never worry about the coverage or durability of the paint when I use the bonding agent. This combination has saved many an old furniture piece. Thanks for this awesome giveaway!
Love love the white ironside covered dish!! And the milk paint would be so fun to experiment with. I’ve only used chalk paint so far.
Love it all!! My favorite is the ironstone compote!!!
I don’t think I can pick just one favorite! I would be so thrilled with everything in the box! I love your blog & follow it every day. I have especially enjoyed your first room makeover & am inspired constantly by everything you do! I am working on making my own home office area right now.
I love every single one of these! The alarm clock “talks” to me, the paint brush is amazing (I bought one already), the hemp sheet *sigh, I have a small collection of ironstone and the covered dish is just lovely, the compote is just lovely and then of course there is the paint…so many projects and possibilities are dancing through my head! Pick just one? The paint.
The covered ironstone dish is calling to me! Definitely my favorite item, tho I’d be excited to receive all the products and would love to try your milk paint!
Sheesh! Where’d all these folks come from?! W-o-W, for you! I love that alarm clock. Maybe I’d be organized and have some free time to use all the others goodies in the basket!
That yummy glitter would look amazing on my homemade vintage Victorian style Christmas ornaments! Would love to receive ??
While it is hard to pick a favorite, i would go with the ironstone. It is hard to find in my area so my collection is still rather small. Thanks for all you do with your blog and outreach – I was a whole 30 follower as well.
It is impossible to decide… apart from the actual paint and the book (which I would absolutely love!!!) if I had to choose.. I would probably have to say the alarm clock its just fantastic… 🙂 Fingers crossed!!!! x
So hard to choose!!! I’ll say the antique compote. So pretty!
So hard to choose-the compote or the hemp sheet. No wait, I think the samples of the European colors or the glitter glass because i would like to give those a try. No, I think now I must choose either the alarm clock or the paint brush and I have decided that the hemp oil is my favorite thing. I love it and cannot buy it any where around here! This is just the best giveaway ever.
I collect ironstone but that blue and white compote dish makes me smile!
All of the items in the giveaway are wonderful but the item I would enjoy most is your paint.
We recently moved into a cabin that was built in 1880 and was a speakeasy during prohibition, complete with bar, brass rail and hidden room for the liquor. I have several flee market finds that need face lifts for our “new”, old home.
The compote, clock, covered dish and knives would all be great additions to our cabin, but the paint would be the best starting point.
Thank you for your inspiration and generosity.
I love it all! But would love to try the Hemp Oil! Thank you for the giveaway and for being so inspiring!
Thank you for your wonderful site and amazing ideas, love it and look forward to each one! The paint brush! A good brush is the basis for ANY good paint job!
I love, love, love it all, but the one favorite would be the ironstone covered dish!!!
How sweet! I love the hemp sheets. What I like to see on your blog are the tutorials for upholstery.
Congrats on your 2000th!
Good Morning Marion,
I have read this post, from you, and looked over all the items with envy because they have a story and are coming from you but…….the one item that speaks to me is the Clangor alarm clock because it reminds me of my childhood which reminds me of my dad. My dad passed away, at age 66, with brain cancer in 2003 but missing him is always fresh in my mind. He was a Christian man with strong faith so I know one day I will see him again. So, the Clangor clock is the item that would mean the most to me.
Only one! I am going to say the alarm clock cause I love the patina on it and I could see it looking great in so many photo shoots for projects. What a wonderful hand selected group of goodies. It will definitely be like Christmas morning if I should happen to win! ;o)
Everything in the box would be put to use and adored. Since I can purchase many if the items I’m going to choose something I cannot just run out and buy, and that would be the hemp sheet. Besides, I have a special chair I would like to introduce it to. I know they will live happily ever after ?
I would love to try the paint with your book on a number of vintage items and the alarm clock is charming!
Why the milk paint of course! Everything else is the cherry on top! Thanks for the giveaway.
That must be a very big box you’re going to send! There are so many amazing things in that “big box”. I must say among all those goodies the MMS paints are the items I’d be the most excited about because, as far as I know, I can’t find them in France and I’ve been wondering for a while how Layla’s mint would look in my coastal cottage….
I love them all!! If I have to pick….the milk paint..love the colors and would love to try it! That was a whole lot of “loves” in that comment!
Hemp Oil is something Im dying to try but I really cant say its my favorite with all the cool loot in there.
I am crazy about all of the items.The wooden tote would be perfect for my watercolor supplies 🙂
It is so hard to choose, but I would have to go with the milk paint. I had purchased your book awhile back, and it has inspired me to give this a try. Now the harder decision would be picking a color if I win.
Would love some sparkling glitter!
I have followed you for years…actually met you (stalked, really ;0) ) at the Yingling’s auction house in Gettysburg a while back. I’m definitely one of your biggest fans! I think I would enjoy EVERYthing in the box, but the European color samples, the set of knives and the covered ironstone dish speak to me the most. ?
Wow! Hard to pick a favorite item…I think everything!! I have a new (old) empty house that I’d love to fill with some painted pieces so I’d really love to try the paint. Love your blog! Thanks for the chance to win!
Surely this is your basic style components in one box, beautifully curated.
My favored item would be the milk paint and boding agent, as I desire to paint my old upright piano in the front hall.
How do you pick just one item that is your favorite??? There are several for me….. Hemp oil, Inspired You book, wooden tote/crate, blue and white compote, and the ironstone dish.
I love the ironstone! It would go with my piece I got from you at Chapel Market!
I’m thinking of all the ways I could use that antique hemp sheet!!!!!!! What a wonderful early Christmas present that would be!!! : )
Marion, I had the pleasure of meeting you in Toronto @ The Home Show last year, and you graciously signed my Look Books! I treasure them, thank you. My favorite thing to win would be the MMS paint, so I can continue on repurposing, and breathing new life into old things that can be loved again! Thank you for all the inspiration you give, and for keeping us excited and anticipating what will come next 🙂
wow!! is it christmas?? all of it!! the covered ironstone bowl, the hempcloth…the box…???? i’ may just faint here!! what can i say to win??? oh, yeah…WORLD PEACE…. seriuosly…i WANT it all!! love your blog…i liked those ramblings vieos, by the way!!!
How to pick just one??? Although my heart does sing when it sees the sweet compote!
Lovely picks for a box.
That antique alarm clock! I wouldn’t mind waking up beside that every day!
Wow! All the items are fantastic. Your MMS paint products are the best, but even more you have provided so much encouragement & inspiration for my daughter and myself! My personal favorite item is the sweet blue&white compote. If I am fortunate enough to be chosen for your gift, it will be shared with my daughter….we may have to draw straws between the compote and the ironstone.
Lol. Thanks for sharing your life and your talent.
I love everything in your box! But seeing those knives almost made me cry! My parents had the same ones and we used them daily growing up. Loved the feeling of their smoothness and the weight of those knives. Both of my parents have since passed and seeing those knives reminded me of all the big beautiful home cooked meals that were prepared with our own produce and meat that was raised on our farm. We didn’t have a lot but all 11 of us kids were well loved and we’ll feed:) We just had Thanksgiving here in Canada so seeing those little treasures transported me back and reminded me how thankful I am for all those good memories.
I have a super big crush on the covered ironstone dish, it’s so sweet! But for me the crème de la crème are the paints, bonding agent, brush and hemp oil. I would love to complete a project in milk paints and practice staging & curating my own vignettes.
So many treasures in the giveaway. Favorite item would either be the paintbrush or the hemp sheet. Thanks for all the inspiration!
Oh my! What’s not to love!!! What a fantastic assortment of goodies. I have several pieces in need of a makeover so the paint would be wonderful but the compote and ironstone are also fantastic.
Thats realy a hart questen, I love everthink!!! But most of all the wooden tote. I Love this thinks….
Hi Miss Mustard, I have been following your blog since coming across it last fall. Your blog inspired me to pick up a brush and give life to old tired furniture. Since then I bought a house and all the furniture I filled it with, I have found at flea markets or yard sales, or saved from the dumpster. Its nice to go home and feel like you are home. I have even started helping friend breath life back in to old furniture, and I love seeing there faces when they see the finished work. Thank you for writing this blog I have learned so much from reading it. Also your products are great especially the clear sealer that product is wonderful. I saw the product on your blog post about the chippy white paint and how to seal it. So I figured I would give the product a try; I had bought these old farm drawers at the Brimfield Antique show. I wanted to turn them into frame boxes to house some botanical prints. They smelled so bad but after a few coats they were perfect and no more smell.
Thank you again I enjoy your blog.
If I won the give away I would love the milk paint most and second that paint brush. 🙂
The giveaway is absolutely luscious! If I must pick just one item, it is the hemp sheet. I have a slipcover project in mind and it would be perfect (and would motivate me to actually do the project)!
The alarm clock grabs me 🙂
I have a hard time picking one favorite. With Chistmas coming the glass glitter would bring some sparkle to ornaments on my silver, gold and crystal tree.

I have been reading your blog and enjoying your taste and style for years, everything in the box is wonderful. I think I would most like your paint. I have been painting and loving painting with “Chalk” paint for 3 years and although I love your blog, I have never been interested in trying your paint!
While I can definitely say winning your European line would be amazing along with bags of my choice( hello ironstone!) my absolute favorite thing would be the compote!. I live in Raleigh which is saturated with antique loving people and it can be hard to find such beautiful compotes and any ironstone ( most of my collection came from Goodwill and other thrift shops that didn’t know it was ironstone!) I love your blog and enjoy each different kind of post including the food ( I’m making meatball sliders this weekend. Thanks for writing such inspiring and motivating pieces that make the internet a brighter and Jesus’s love like filled space!
The European color samples, though I’d treasure everything. Those colors look so delicate and luscious!
I’d love to try the glitter glass. What a wonderful prize.
The covered ironstone dish! Thanks MMS!
Thank you for responding to my email this morning… your tech guy came through! I’m most excited about everything you’re giving away honestly, but if I had to narrow it down it would be the hemp sheets. I’ll be recovering chairs for my dining room soon and I’d love to use them. Also, your book. I have two packages of ironstone paint that I bought 8 months ago but I’m scared to use them for fear I’ll mess up. Wish I was closer so I could come to a workshop! Thanks for your inspiring posts every day!!
The wooden tote, finding them here is near impossible….I love anything wood and these totes are perfect to fill with my supplies and bits and pieces…..I love adding vintage touches to my home and being a small part of their story.
I have to say, my favorite is the alarm clock too but I’d love to try the different tools like the soap and wax. What’s the best way to learn about the different techniques for painting…one of the books?
How is one supposed to pick a favorite, when they all rank as favorites?! I say Hemp sheet, compote, ironstone, glass glitter, (oooh a second paintbrush, I love what I call the “Parson’s” brush!), and the paint, I would love the European colors! This is so fun, and what a prize!!!! Thanks!
My favorite is the blue and white compote. What an awesome give away!
I would love to try your paint. The assortment of European colors is my favorite. Thank you!
I love everything you do! Very inspired to start a new career from your blog! Like everyone I would like all your things but have to pick one so the hemp sheet it is ! Thank you for the light in lieu of all the negativity around!
Hello…
I would have to say I would pick the Parsons West brush…I’ve been painting for some time and I know the value of a good brush….I have one brush that I still use that I got in art school and I graduated in 1979! So…your PW brush would be a nice addition to my collection. Thanks MMS for your inspiration!
I love love love your paint! And the hemp oil. Of course I love the alarm clock and linen and almost everything! But your paint is my treasure! My great find! My “pat on the back” from my friends admiring the things I’ve painted using it! Thank you for your tutorials and for figuring out how to make a quality product.
What a giveaway! My choice would be the Miss Mustard Seed Milk Paint. And, the moment it arrived I would paint a small chest of drawers that I have to replace the changing table in my little girls room. I’ve been putting it off because well, it makes me a little sad that she’s growing up and we just don’t need the precious little changing table anymore. It would make a sad mommy moment a bit happier as I tackled creating/painting a beautiful new piece for her – mostly to hold the overflow of synthetic princess dresses we own, ugh. I would probably choose the color Boxwood, but I sure do love Arabesque, but Typewriter – gorgeous… so many colors to choose!!! I think it would probably cause a sleepless night having to choose just one ONE color. Such lovely colors. Well, you wanted a comment, not an essay. Lovely blog! Fabulous photos!Love your style. Thanks for helping us make our homes prettier.
The assortment of European colors is my favorite. I’d love to try your milk paints!
Since I’m so new to Milk Paint, my favorite thing would be trying some new colors and letting the “chippiness” fall where it may! I’m excited by watching this amazing paint work its magic, and the unpredictable-ness of it is what makes it so fascinating. But I have to say, receiving items that are curated especially by you, would be wonderful. Thank you for all that you share. Kindly, Chris
The beautiful blue and white compote is my favorite! Although…you made it hard to choose with the amount of amazing you put in this giveaway! 🙂
Only one favorite? Really? Impossible to pick just one. Such a wonderful array of items. I’ve never used milk paint before but would love to try. I’d also love to make a hemp sheet slipcover. Your encouraging tutorials have prompted me to dust off my sewing machine and tackle painting projects I’d been putting off for ages. Thanks for giving me the courage to try new things and not sweat the imperfections.
Your box of goodies is awesome! I have a old pie safe that needs a facelift and your paint would be perfect. The books could give me some incentive to use the paints. Love the blue and white compote. Guess I want it all.
I’ve been wanting to try your products for ages, you are truly an inspiration.
Winning all these goodies would be like a dream come true, especially that MMS products are not available in my country.
Would definitely love to try the paints and the wax to get that lovely Shabby Chic chippy look, MMS style 🙂
Hugs, Diana
Wow, what a wonderful giveaway. I think the wooden tote would be my favorite item to use in so many ways for seasonal decor. Although, the ironstone dish would look beautiful on my Thanksgiving table!
What a terrific collection of goodies. I really like the little covered ironstone dish.
What a great collection of all things Mustard Seed! Hard to pick just one, but if I HAD to, it would probably be the antique hemp sheet. That is the one item I don’t have access to in my neck of the woods. Sure would love to win them all so I wouldn’t have to choose just one!
What’s not to love in this box!!!! Besides the paint – I LOVE the blue and white compote and the ironstone. Ironstone is harder to find in “my neck of the woods”. I have my grandmother’s set of dishes that are blue and white and this would match perfect.
I would love the box for I like all the items. If I had to choose I would pick the knife set as my favorite.
Oh my! What a generous offer! Thank you! At this moment (after much debate with myself) I think the milk paint would be my favorite. We are buying vintage items that our oldest daughter picks out for the day she moves into her first home. Her dream is for the two of us to paint the buffet & hutch we gave her for her birthday with your milk paint. I think it would be a great experience for us to do this together. I adore the blue & white compote dish and the hemp sheet too! It is all wonderful!
If I had to choose… it would be the tote, but I am very anxious to try your paint.
Oh my, who could choose a favorite?!?! But I am going with the Glass Glitter. Would love to make some Christmas stars using the glass glitter. What an amazing giveaway. Thank you so much for all the inspiration!!!
Are you kidding? How can a person choose ONE favorite item? All of the items are wonderful…books, paint, brush…how about, Everything!!!
Love love love everything! But the Wooden Tote would be my absolute No1! Thank you for being such an inspiration!
How sweet of you! I would love the paint along with the wooden tote. I see a project in the making! Thanks for the opportunity!
Well I know you said only one item but… they both have the word hemp in them so I will go with it. I want to feel the hemp sheet cause you spoke so highly of them on one of your posts. If I must choose one though, it would be the hemp oil. I want to sand down my kitchen table and use this oil on it. Thanks.
Clock
I could definitely use EVERYTHING but the dear blue and white compote would be the bonus for me….have never met a compote I didn’t like. They stack well when not in use which allows for more. I haven’t won anything since I was a Girl Scout brownie and that was a chocolate rabbit!!!
I love all of it, but would be most excited about trying the new colors in your European Milkpaint line! Thanks!!
The Bakelite handled knives.They remind me of many meals eaten as a girl at my Nana’s table and later at our summer cabin,they brought a smile to my face.
Love the selection in your give away it must have been fun to put it together!
Wow! What a great giveaway. It’s hard to choose but I think my favorite item would be the milk paint. I’ve been wanting to try this for a long time. Thanks so much!
I think my favourite item would me the knives with Bakelite handles, they remind me of the knives my granny has in her home. I remember always using them when I was little.
I love the covered Ironstone dish. It looks so petite!! I would use it to place little succulents in.
Oh my goodness, how to choose!?! Since all the paint and finishes go together, and are more than one thing, it would have to be the hemp sheet or the blue and white compote. Yum!!!!
I’d hav to say your paint! That stuff is like powdered GOLD around here! Use it all the time, am I the only one that literally scrapes th bag? Lol
Thank you so much this is the most generous giveaway I’ve ever seen!
I love everything you do! You are such an inspiration to everyone who reads your blog. I look forward to everyone. Thank you so much for sharing. As for my favorite…..I am really wanting to try your products……just don’t know where to start. So I think the paint, hemp oil etc. would be my pick. Thanks for the opportunity to have a chance to win. Winning would be awesome!
Love your blog! I would love the covered iron stone dish.
Thanks
It’s hard to pick one thing that id love to win because they are all great!! But if I had to pick one thing, I would love to win that blue and white ironstone footed bowl ::swoon::
Ironstone!
My favorite has to be the covered ironstone dish.
Oh wow! I would love to try all the samples from the European line! I have been drooling over them since they first came out. The alarm clock would be perfect in my sewing room/office so that might be my next favorite, but like everyone else it’s hard to pick just one thing, everything in the giveaway is awesome 🙂
My favorite would be the milk paint. Although I have been following your blog and have been lining up projects to do for quite awhile, I have yet to take the plunge and start painting. Having your products in hand would be just the gentle nudge I need. I would love to get started–you have given me inspiration!
The compote is my favorite. It would be perfect in my dining room!
Holy wow!!! Could you BE more thoughtful with your gift choices?!? (Said in my Chandler from Friends voice!) I would love the milk paint!!! Love love love! And I have to get my hands on the books!! Oh please pick me!!!
Wow, hard to decide but probably the paint brush or wait, maybe the milk paint!
Wow! That is a huge stash! More than one has a right to expect. There is enough to keep AND to share. You are too generous! If you held me down and forced me to choose….. well, I just can’t! Maybe the hemp sheet. Wait, no, the blue and white compote. NO, the whole line of paint, hemp oil, bonding agent and paint brush! Okay, I love it all. All that’s missing is you! Toss in yourself and that would be my favorite!!
I would love the milk paint & use it right away!!!
I love everything! I would especially love to play around with more of your beautiful paint colors! And more Hemp Oil is always a good thing! Love love love! Thank you for always providing inspiration and clarity to your readers. 🙂
Wow, Marion! What a giveaway! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your paint and products! There is nothing else like them out there. AND you inspire me with your design style! I’ve been collecting ironstone for years too, before it even came into such popularity, so I’d have to say my favorite would be the ironstone dish because I can’t get enough of it! Keep doing what you do and thank you!
whoops sorry I spelled your name wrong. tried to go back and edit. please accept my apology. 🙂
It all looks great together…if I must pick it would be the paint…followed by your book…..followed by the hemp oil…..you get the idea!!! I look forward to your blog everyday and love your success story. And getting to do what you love is the best thing of all. Who wouldn’t want that!
I love it all, would love to try your new paint brush, but the paint and the white ironstone would be my most favorites. Love your blog!
I have never used any of these products. I am knew to this whole milk painting, Chalk painting, furniture face lifts. I came to this website after someone suggesting your products were the best! So as a new learner I would love to win this box of goodies!
Thanks so much
Wow, great giveaway so it’s hard to choose but I’m really interested in the hemp sheet. I don’t think I’ve ever seen/felt one and they look so beautiful turned into slip covers or pillow covers.
What a generous giveaway! My favorite would be the sweet covered ironstone dish. I would also be ecstatic to have the Miss Mustard Seed Paint. Thank You so much. I remember when I first found your blog, it was when you were in the True Value Contest to have your bathroom redone. I voted everyday on 3 different computers 🙂
I’d love the paint since I’ve been wanting to try it forever and I just bought a small
wooden step stool that would be perfect for my first MMSMP project, but what really
speaks to me are the bakelite knives. They remind me of my grandmother.
I have to admit that I have signed up for many a giveaway winning nothing, of course. However, that never broke my heart as I really didn’t expect much. However, THIS time I would absolutely LOVE to win your giveaway. I love everything you are offering. I live in a 100+ year old home that I have spent years fixing up and it all would be so perfect. I just recently discovered your paint line and have so many ideas of things I want to do. I love the hemp sheet and compote, but every single thing is awesome. Love your ideas!!!
My favorite is the “styling” of the whole package! so how could I just choose one when it fits so beautifully together, mustard seed, blue and white, favorite things style!
I love the hemp sheet and the hemp oil…..I have been signed up for your blog a long time,,i am new to the computer and have been painting and redoing furniture for about 15 or more years and selling it at my yard sales…but have never been able to afford your paint…love the looks of the finished product and so glad you were able to get your own space…..would love that…thanks so much..
The blue and white compote.
And the ironstone, and the hemp sheet and EVERYTHING!
The paint is the best part–I love using it and have many projects lined up!!
OH, my goodness! Such wonderful things you’ve chosen!! And to choose ONE! I think I will have to say the paint! I have so wanted to paint something using it, just haven’t taken the time to find a place on the internet to order from.
I have read your blog for a very long time and enjoy it so much. I admire how you have progressed and grown through your blog into a wonderful business! I am a mother with daughters about your age, I would love if either one of them could have a career capturing their joy each day, as you certainly seem to!!
THANK YOU for your blog!!
I have followed your blog for many years. I remember seeing some of your ornaments in the first posts. Using the old phrase “you’ve come a long way baby!” is so true here! I love seeing women succeed in realizing their dreams in this challenging business market. You have truly been an inspiration.
I would especially like the European line milk paint samples. I have saved my mothers old china cabinet to use milk paint on but can’t decide on a color! thank you for the opportunity to try them all!!! Marie
ALL of the items would be gratefully accepted and put into use right away! The one I would start with, if I had to pick, would probably be the hemp fabric. I have been staring down a wing chair that desperately needs a makeover, contemplating painting the fabric as the faster solution, although not the desired. I’ve watched your video tutorial to pin and fit and am close to shredding some IKEA drapes to work with. I am looking carefully at Megan’s makeover to copy the check ties on the back, too. The hemp fabric would give me the look I want, and inspire me to finish my master bedroom with a paint job (Ironstone, I think), and….and….and…!
Oh, wow! How fun! I have been furnishing my house with Craigslist finds and have been using your milk paint since last summer. So, I think the milk paint products would be pretty fantastic to receive. However, I got pretty excited with each new picture I scrolled down to see! What a lovely care package you’ve put together–how thoughtful!
WOW! How to choose! As I just yesterday purchased three new pkgs of paint ( my first was this summer with the mustard yellow). So I traveled and purchase three new colours and a bottle of hemp oil! Can’t wait to try them! Sooooo to Choose?.. …the antique hemp sheet or maybe the European samples, hmmmmm the ironstone! Yes! Hold on – maybe the brush as I forgot to pick one up yesterday! And of course love the clock and the tote! But then again I would love love love to read every page of your books! Sorry just can’t decide! Everything is just awesome! I have been following you for some time now – you as a ray of sunshine ☀️ and love everything you post and teach with such simplicity and clarity! Not to mention INSPIRATIONAL! Thank you! ?
Milk Paint.
Oh. My. Goooodness! Impossible to choose as I felt myself gushing at each reveal… I definitely love all of your paint, and have been adding to my collection as budget allows … Hemp Oil is like a magic elixer and this is a HUGE bottle :D… antiques – especially functional antiques are my passion… These I love equally. I think I’m left torn between the hemp sheet(!) and the bling in a bottle!! I know my hubby is getting me MMSMP for my bday Nov 1st, so I’m going to sayyyyyyy………….. sparklies! Glitter!! Man that was hard – now I’m going to watch tutorials about how to use the glitter so I’ll have the perfect project picked out when you announce my name 😉
Thank you oodles Marian, for sharing such an amazing blog and your blessed life <3
Yikes! I don’t know how you will choose – everyone’s entries are so heartfelt. All I can say is that I love what you do and every photo is a visual feast that feeds my soul. I would especially love to have the paint, brush and hemp oil, since I have not used your products before. But oh, that hemp sheet… it calls to me! Thanks so much for your generosity.
such gorgeous treats to share; thanks for the giveaway! my favorite is the compote, i believe, although it truly is hard to choose from all the beauties!
All of the items are scrumptious! But if I had to pick a favorite it would be the paint…and the Parsons West brush!
This is a perfect collection of all things Miss Mustard Seed. I think I would most enjoy the milk paint and isn’t that twine sweet 🙂
The hemp oil! I have just started stripping wood and redoing (for the first time ever) and I would love to use that oil!
Everything is just beautiful If I had to chose, it would be the blue and white compote. Thank you!
I put a comment in yesterday but it didn’t show up so this is a test. But I love the whole box but paint is likely tops!
I love the Blue & white compote!!! Thank you for bring a smile on my face daily as I love your blog!! Blessing Deidre.
Wow what a generous and incredible giveaway! It all looks amazing, but I would have to say the hemp sheet and paint would be my favorite! Thank you so much for this blog and for sharing your incredible creative talent with us – you are such an inspiration and I truly look forward to reading every article you post!
I would love the chalk paint and supplies, as I have many furniture painting projects that I need to get motivated to start and/or finish! Having those quality supplies would be just the push I need! 🙂
Milk paint
The hemp sheet! I have thought of buying some SO many times and just haven’t pulled the trigger. I’m still using drop clothes 🙁
Thanks for the opportunity and the your wonderful blog!
Do I have to pick just one? Probably the hemp sheet!
I love the clock – but everything is beautiful- so hard to pick a favorite!
the Parsons West brush – a great brush is needed to make great painting. …
That’s going to be a big box! Christmas will come early for someone! Choose only one favorite….? Almost impossible, but I guess it would the antique hemp sheet.
The linen sheets and the clock are my favs, but it is all so great!
No doubt, the paint would be my favorite, but I LOVE the clock. It would look amazing on a shelf with my vintage garden books!
The European paints! They are lovely
As much as I love everything in the tableau, hands down I’d have to say the MMS milk paint (3 quart)! After all, we couldn’t be milk painters without our Miss Mustard Seed milk paint!
I would love, love, love the paint and your book!
The covered ironstone dish. I do not have any ironstone. I love how beautiful it looks in your posts.
The paints would be my favorite and the wooden box since it reminds me of one my 89 year old mother has.
I LOVE everything in this, but I would especially be excited about the book and Lookbook! I already have the book and LookBook myself but I have some friends who are interested in making their homes into places they really love and I would love to pass these wonderful resources on to them! Also, ironstone is hard to find here in Florida and I would love both the compote and the covered dish…and the brush and the sheet…okay, I would find an awesome use for everything here!
Thanks for the opportunity!
I live the wooden tote, but the compote makes my heart flutter too.
How can people pick one favorite here! Obviously the quart paint would be phenomenon! I’ve only had the luxury of using a few samples (since hubby got laid off) wanting to refinish some UGLY Craigslist furniture we’ve had since our first place. I don’t understand why we don’t have a retailer in myrtle beach. But my second would be that fan clock. I’m a new Comer to your paint but have been a huge fan since the beginning. Creating something new from old is my hobby and passion. Your an inspiration to many of us in many ways
I love the alarm clock. The sound of old clocks ticking is very soothing.
I love the alarm clock! It caught my eye first. But I would also love to have your book and try out your products.
Oh my, such a generous give away! I love anything blue and white and the white ironstone would be a treasure, since it is very difficult to find where I live. I have been wanting to try your milk paint and hemp oil and I have the perfect piece of furniture that is desperate for a redo!!! With your book as inspiration, this would be just the “push” I need to tackle this project!
I really love all the items……I guess that is why I enjoy your blog so much!!!
Thank you for all the inspiration!!
Oh my goodness! What a generous give away!!! I love ironstone and the compote, this seriously is too hard, I love it all of course I already have your book, but it would make an awesome gift. 🙂
Thank you Marian for keeping me inspired. Keeping my fingers crossed that all this goodness comes my way!
MMS, your Milk Paint is knocking at my heart, because I am a Country girl, and I have nevered used it, but have been wanting to.
What a wonderful gift box! I’m new to your website and am completely hooked. The hemp sheet would probably be my favorite item because of all the possibilities.
OMG!I can’t pick just one.I love them all!!!!!
Oh my gosh, I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a generous give away! Most definitely, your milk paint. I haven’t tried it yet and have several projects in need of your paint! Thank you for the give away.
How can you pick one thing out of all that terrificness?!! I’m dying to try the paint so maybe that would be it, but that blue and white compote is a pretty close second!
Oh my gosh, the whole kit and kaboodle looks incredible. I would love it all but the Parsons West brush would be especially appreciated. I bet it will be the best brush I ever use and I right now I just have some crummy ones. I have three projects to finish now and would get to use the brush for those and many more.
What a treasure trove of MMS favorites! My favorite item is the box. Of course, I love everything in the box, but there is something about old boxes with handles and worn patina that is so appealing.
Thank you for offering this fabulous give-away.
Judith
What a generous giveaway! I have always wanted to try your paintbrush and your glitter.
I love everything in this box, but I’m most excited about the paint and the hemp oil since I’m almost out of both and I love your paint. Oh…and the European color samples….so excited about those!!!!
I’m new to your paint and although I’m a little scared I really want to try it! I love all your blogs and I LOVE your house and the way you just keep adding/changing. You tell everyone to do what they love and that you can make a beautiful home without a design degree or a lot of cash. I felt like you were talking to me! I also love the serendipity journey too. I guess my favorite thing in the”box” is all the love and dedication you have brought to your products – through your own journey. You are so inspirational!
Thanks,
Donna Scearce, Memphis, TN
Hi Marian, this is such an awesome giveaway! My favorite item is everything!! I am in the process of redoing my home. We are almost empty nesters one 25 year old daughter left. Our son, his wife and our first grand baby were with us since January due to them losing everything in a house fire and being rendered homeless. They just left last week after purchasing a new home. I have been a follower of yours for about a year now and have been so inspired by your Amazing taste and talent! I have decided on a total redo in your decorating style and this giveaway would really help bring it to light! Thank you for the opportunity and inspiration! God Bless!
The blue & white compote! Thank you!
The paint! I’ve been eye-balling a couple of pieces of furniture in my house that could use a “new” look.
I use your milk paint already and love it! I’ve only used 3 of the colors and would love the opportunity to try some of the others! I have some pieces in mind that I want to paint ? Also would love the piece of ironstone… My collection only has 2 pieces so far!
Oh my gosh how generous! The covered ironstone dish won my heart! But it was a close race for all the other items!
I would have to say it would have to be a toss-up between the ironstone and the hemp sheet! Every single thing in the box is awesome though!
All of the things in the box are wonderful! But I think I would love to get all the paint samples. I cannot by your paint locally so I have to rely on the color the computer shows me. It would be wonderful to have actual samples so I know what I am getting before I order.
Holy Cow!!!! What an amazing & generous giveaway! I love, love, love your paint line! We painted our wood walls in our living room in grain sack and it is fantastic! There are so many more colors I want to try out! Fingers crossed!!
Absolutely the hemp oil so I can see for myself what a miracle oil it is. I think I could find daily uses for it!
Besides the MMS paint products it would have to be that blue and white compote dish. I bought some dishes in a similar pattern at the Luckett’s antique fair last May and would love to have the matching dish. Thanks so much for doing another giveaway – you are such a warm and generous person!
The milk paint. Working on a family room remodel and have two furniture pieces to transform … this would be just in time 🙂
In all honesty my favorite part would be the paint, brush and hemp oil…
Over 20 years ago I began the shabby chic painted furniture hobby…but the paints were not nearly as sophisticated as the powdered milk paint line you have created…. I would use abrasive chemicals to dilute to the right texture…steel wool to get the “right” distressed look and my hands would ache for days after completing a project…Over the years I have become busy with other areas of my life…so recently when I began browsing the blogs on country french furniture I have become very intrigued by what is now known as milk and chalk paint…your line especially because you have taken the initiative to create the entire line…brushes, branding, etc… So Miss Mustard Seed I would most relish using the milk paints you have created… as the hands are 20 years older but the passion for the right finish is as strong as ever.
Oh My Goodness!! Any one of those items would make my heart sing! I don’t now that I could really choose … I think I would have to say the wooden box caught my eye first! But all those things are on my favorites list. I would be lucky and grateful for even one of these items, you are very generous in sharing these with one of your readers!
Smiles!

Hi. I really love all the items, but that alarm clock really caught my eye! Love your work & your ideas. Keep inspiring us please!
Lida
Wow! Just Wow! I am in awe of you and your generous spirit!
Although I love every single thing you’re including in the giveaway, my favorite has to be the paint. There isn’t a retailer near me and if I want some of your paint I have to drive 40 miles to get it.
Your paint is one of my favorite milk paints and yes, I have taken the long drive to get it in the past!
I also love the idea of finally getting to use your hemp oil I’ve heard so much about!
And to finally own a piece of ironstone???
I’m beyond excited at the chance to win!
Thank you!
xoxo
Okay, I want to stand out so you pick me!!! I am going to say the clock even though everything is something I adore 🙂
love the antique blue & white compote…
Hard to pick – it would be fun to play with it all! But my favorite would probably be the box itself, just because I could use it immediately 🙂
All of the items are absolutely irresistible and an absolute divine collection of things! But I have to choose the MMS Milk Paint and just love the ironstone.
I love the blue and white compote!
Everything! I’d love the MMS milk paint, I’ve been wanting to try it for some time.
You are beyond generous! I think I’m most excited by the European colors! What fun! Of course, the ironstone and compote would be on display immediately! Thanks for all the inspiration you’ve given me ?
One of each! LUV it all but would love to try the hemp oil!!
I would love the paint and accessories. I have never tried a milk paint project, but would love to try.
Wow what awesome prizes! Hard to choose but love Miss Mustard Seed paint. I would be content with any that’s for sure!
Everything looks beautiful, but I love-love-love that blue and white antique compote..
OMg – do I have to choose just one favorite from this list?? Impossible!! I’ve been wanting to try milk paint (I’m a chalk paint fan) – love them hemp oil already but the sheet is very intriguing to me! I can’t imagine what I’d do with it since I don’t sew – maybe I would start?
Hands down…the ironstone compote!! Thanks Marian!!
I’d love the MMS milk paint !!!
Although the paint made me interested in entering, the blue and white compote would be my favorite piece!
Everything is great, however I have been wanting to try your paints for forever so I would have to say the paint!!
Its all wonderful, but my favorite item would probably be the antique blue and white compote!!! Thank you!
I love that there are so many of the MMSMP products! I would love being able to try all of them! And the European colors too! Thanks for the chance to win!
Thank you for offering this! It’s a tie between the bakelite handled knives and the hemp oil…
WOW…how could one choose just one? The clock would be my first choice, but the paint oh the paint!!! So I think it would be the PAINT!! Be still my fluttering paint brush….
What a generous mix of beautiful things, both practical and lovely. I use your line of paint and supplies so those would be put to immediate good use but I believe the hemp sheet is the most luxurious of them all and the single item I most likely would NEVER purchase for myself and so of course, it’s the one item I’d covet most.
Wow. Amazing box of goodies! My favorite would be the paint samples. I’d love to try them
The ironstone… by the way, it’s all your fault that I’ve fallen in love with it….Thanks for the opportunity to win some special things that reflect your style. : – )
Hemp oil. No, the paint! No, the sheet. No, the clock. Jo, the compote. Good lord? Just one? Am I disqualified?
My favorite items are the paint, the distressing wax and the hemp oil. Your blog has been so inspiring to me–I’ve never painted with your milk paint and I am so excited to get started!!
Hi- is love to be entered into your giveaway, love your stuff! Thanks for posting awesome stuff daily, you’re such great inspiration.
It is too hard to pick just one. I like everything! But the milk paint just can’t be beat and the hemp oil is awesome. Such a generous giveaway.
I love everything in the box. The best would be the Look Book for ideas and the special brush to bring those ideas to reality.
Seriously!!! Impossible to pick just one, I’m in love with all of it! There is something about the alarm clock and the compote that makes me very excited. I read your blog everyday. You are an inspiration. Thank you!
It’s a tie between the MMs paint & the covered Ironstone dish !
I recently purchased forks with Bakelite handles from you at the Market on Chapel Hill. My favorite would have to be the matching knives. It was so nice to meet you in person, I have loved your blog from the very beginning.
Thank you for the giveaway!
Thank you Marion, for this generous mix of beautiful items. I look forward to your posts, love your photos and projects, and save them to read more than once. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with your readers.
What a lovely giveaway! I would have to say the glass glitter has caught my eye, especially with Christmas just around the corner. Hard to choose though.
Wow…what a generous give-away!! I would have to say EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THOSE ITEMS WOULD BE MY FAVORITE!!!
Wow… How gracious of you.. I guess my answer can not be all of the items in the cute box… My pick would be…. that adorable alarm clock. It would be fun to decorate around.. Thanks and to the winner.. Enjoy!!
Wow what a nice giveaway!! I would have to say that EACH AND EVERY ITEM WOULD BE MY FAVORITE…so many wonderful items. Thanks!!
How does a person choose? I would say the covered ironstone dish would be my first choice but everything looks amazing! And it was really great to meet you yesterday.
I would love the 3 quarts of MMS Milk Paint. After diving into projects using chalk paint, I am dying to try the milk paint but there is no local distributor. The rest of the package is incredible too. As a fabric junkie, I’d love to get a feel of the antique hemp sheet and get a chance to do something fun with it.
I’m pretty sure my jaw just dropped and I’m having palpitations. What I would love most in this giveaway is the hemp seed oil. I’v heard such amazing things about it and have yet to try it. After that I could absolutely list them in order but I won’t. 😉 That clock though. Thank you for the opportunity. Teresa
I think my favorite is the glass glitter – especially since it’s in “Tiara”, since tiaras are my signature item!
How do you pick just one ……the European paint colors, thanks Elaine
I would love everything but I would just adore the blue and white compote!!!!!
Lots of wonderful things. Love the clock because it’s “time” for me to try different colors of milk paint. Love the European colors line.
I am so very curious about the hemp sheet. I want to know what all the fuss is about!
So many beautiful and practical items! My first choice would be the wooden tote.
Thank you so much for giving away such a generous collection!
Oh – what a treasure!
I think the paint – I am redoing 2 bedrooms and a dining room…would love to try the paint. Esp a green one. But – I LOVE the ironstone too…too hard to choose – so many pretty things!
I would really love to try your hemp oil, but what wouldn’t I give for that sheet…and I can think of a dozen ways I’d use that tote if I had it…you’ve just got me dreaming now…sigh
Oh my goodness, do we have to pick just one favorite!? Because I don’t think I can! I would be so thrilled with any of these amazing gifts! 😀 hmmm, I’m expecting a baby in March and have an entire room to redecorate, so I’m going to be painting a lot of furniture, so I think the milk paint would be my favorite. But seriously, everything is gorgeous! Thank you for doing this giveaway! Crossing my fingers! 🙂
Oh my. Everything in this package would be awesome. It’s really hard to pick a favorite and I won’t. It’s the combination of all things you gathered together that spark inspiration. And the feeling of inspiration with the supplies at your fingertips to create a new look is what is really my favorite. Inspiration is priceless.
Picking one item is quite the challenge, but I would definitely chose the ironstone. You really have inspired me to start my own collection–a little at a time. More so, I recently found out (through genetic testing) that 40% of my ethnicity is British! My sisters and I had no idea; we knew we were Italian and Irish, but thought we were French. What a surprise. Now I know why I have been drawn to ironstone ( and the Royal Family too…lol). Thank you for your inspiration.
What a fantastic selection of beautiful treasures! I just tried milk paint for the first time to redo an old worn out buffet and hutch and was so happy with the results so I would have to say the paint would be my favourite choice. I would love to experiment with some more colours and I have more furniture that needs painting!
Really do I have to pick just one!?…. Well then your milk paint to hopefully inspire me to finally paint my four-poster bed?
The whole giveaway package looks amazing! I am really excited about the paint and related items, because I have a number of pieces in my home calling out for some fresh color.
The ironstone compote and the glitter glass for sure! Thanks!
Oh, what a wonderful box! You do such a nice job corralling items that help create a look, which will then turn out a bit differently for each person and not a -not a cookie-cutter ‘method’. I’m most excited about the many MP samples in all the colors. Maybe paint my large, not antique coffee table tray in an unexpected stripe or chevron? Feminize some of my workroom storage pieces? And glitter, who doesn’t love your glitter?!
Dear Marian,
Hands down my favorite item is the milk paint. I wake up every morning ready to paint and your milk paint is the BEST!!!
Thank you for all you do to inspire me &
God Bless,
Frances
The glass glitter for sure!!! That stuff looks magical!
For sure the Hemp Sheets hands down. So many pillows covers to be made. Great giveaway!
I even love the door used as your backdrop. I love the ironstone and the blue/white pedestal plate.
I love old clocks but my favorite item in the give away would be the paint. I’d love to have that collection.
Oh, that compote is gorgeous! Though I would love to try the paint and glitter, nothing makes me happier than blue and white china!
EVERYTHING! I pick everything! MMS Milk Paint, paint accessories, books, blue/white bakers twine, antique wood tote, antique hemp sheet, antique blue/white compote, alarm clock, Bakelite knives, ironstone – I love it all! It would all find a place in my home and my heart! I’m so grateful!
Like everyone else that thought of picking just one is like asking which child is my favorite. That said, the antique hemp sheet because they seem so rare and hard to find. Thank you for all of the wonderful giveaways. Have a spectacular day!
Ohhhhhhh, Glitter! Such yummy goodies. I . WANT this, I NEED this! Thank you!
I would love the paint! I have an old schoolhouse desk I would love to paint green!
My favorite item in the give away package is the dear little blue and white compote dish. Think how many ways it could be used! Little cakes or cookies. Soap in the bathroom. Buttons, potpourri, ribbons…
The blue and white compote! Thank you for the giveaway!
So hard to pick one favorite!! The Hemp Oil is so practical and I can think of a few pieces in my house that could use it… BUT my favorite thing has to be the glass glitter- it’s just sooooo pretty and sparkly… would love to make some Christmas oranments for my tree this year with it!
Marian, I like the your milk paint! Paint gives endless possibilities! It’s practical in a fun , exciting way ! I don’t have any shops by me that carry your milk paint!! Of course I adore the ironstone. All love that everything you picked represents you! Thank you for providing so much inspiration!
My favorite item is the antique hemp sheet. I love everything in the give away, I want to be the winner!!! Du Québec, je vous dis bonjour!
Wow…I can’t pick just one..love your paint! Love the ironstone, can’t wait to see my first antique hemp sheet!!
I would love to win the milk paint. I’ve wanted to try it since I found you on Pinterest and for whatever reason have been a little hesitant. The antique hemp sheet would be awesome too. ?
It’s all fabulous, but my favorite is the
little clock. I just love those.
It’s a tie between the alarm clock and the blue and white compote! just love them both. I have been looking all over for an old alarm clock for my vintage guest room; this one would be perfect! I hope, I hope I win! Thanks so much for all the lovely gifts you are offering. Really, every one is amazing.
I love it all but esprecially Marion? Oh wait she is not in the box! Really I think the paints are woderful thx for chance
Linda

What a lovely mix of goodies! My fave would be the milk paint… I have some pieces crying out for a coat of that beautiful and natural coloring.
My favorite is your paint. I have painted my whole bedroom set in it and then used antiquing wax. It is beautiful!
Oh my goodness, this is such a beautiful giveaway! My favorite is a toss-up between the hemp sheet and the glitter. The antique sheet is lovely and the glitter would be fun to have for the upcoming holidays! Thanks for the giveaway, it is all so pretty!
Such a tough decision but I am going to choose the paint because it would be really fun to try out all the different colors.
My heart is beating faster with even the slightest thought of scoring all of those lovely things. Though the paint, in the end, will always be the best because it allows me to let my creativity flow. I have a “mountain” of furniture to paint and it’s all screaming “pick me, pick me!”. So on that note, I’ll follow suit! “Pick me, pick me!” 😉
Oh my!!! I love everything in the box! If I had to pick one thing – it’s your book! I need all the help I can get as I’m a beginner!
Thank you for this opportunity too!
Oh so hard to chose! So many beautiful and wonderful things. I think I would chose the milk paint because I have several finds in my workshop that this paint will transform into something beautiful.
The six MMSMP samples, mainly because I’d love to win this for my wife and she is crazy about your stuff 🙂
You made it so hard to pick a favorite item. I’m new to your blog and love your posts, so on that note I want to try your product’s. The MMSMP and paint brush would be my choice!
My favorite is the blue & white antique compote, I even pictured where I would display it as soon as saw the picture! You always pick such lovely pieces! I love them all!
Oh my goodness, how is anyone going to be able to choose one favorite item from this fabulous box?! Every single thing in there is a treasure! That blue and white compote is so so pretty, as is the ironstone. The alarm clock would be a welcome addition to my tiny collection of them. I’d love to own your look book, and could actually pass your book “Inspired You” along to a friend who keeps trying to steal mine! THE PAINT! But then how would I choose between all the gorgeous colors?! Ok, I’ve narrowed it down – the hemp sheet! Only because I really want to slipcover a piece of furniture, and it is screaming out for that hemp sheet!
Good luck everyone! And thank you, Marian, for doing this wonderful give away!
Curio plus hemp oil is my favorite combination! I’m hoping to try out the paint brush soon.
What an amazing gift! That will be like Christmas for some lucky reader. It’s a toss up between the milk paintroducts and the hemp sheet
So many goodies……how do you pick? I have wanted a hemp sheet so I’ll say that, but since I have used at least 5 colors of your paint, all of the paint items would be wonderful too. I love everything, actually and it is so generous of you to offer all of it. I so want to win! Thanks so much for making such a great giveaway!
It’s the MMS Lottery! The clock makes me smile…I have a clock in every room. I would love to try the milk paint! ?
I would love some MMS paint, as I have wanted to try them out for a long long time. But the book is great also. 🙂
I would love the paint! I just started refinishing furniture and absolutely love it! I also have a soft spot for antique clocks:)
I’m entering for my daughter. She wants the milk paint and hemp oil.
All lovely! The milk paint would have to be my favorite!
The hemp sheet is my favorite. What a great giveaway; thanks!
My favorite item is the paint! I’m too timid to try painting furniture so having free paint would be the perfect incentive.
I would love the paint. I have so many items stashed in the basement just waiting to be refreshed and put to use.
I love that wooden tote, ,the books and the ironstone covered dish. So many wonderful things, every one is beautiful.
Oh my, love the bakelite knives
Well, the milk paint would be my number one favorite item!
The MMS glass glitter…
Christmas is a’coming 🙂
I love it all! How does one choose from such a great selection of items? Since I have just started an ironstone collection, I guess I would have to say the cute covered ironstone dish.
I love everything but especially like the clock. So cute!!
You have inspired me to start collecting ironstone pieces to go along with my newly inherited white and cornflower blue China from my grandmother. The covered dish would definitely be at the top of my list!
You are so sweet to be doing such an amazing giveaway!
I love the little clock…and the hemp sheets…and the ironstone…
IT IS TOO HARD TO CHOOSE!!
Definitely one of your books. Inspiration + , what more could I need, well more Milk Paint never goes astray. Sada your supplier here in Adelaide is such a wonderful and helpful “friend” to all her clients.
Just one item?? ACK! I love the alarm clock, the samples of European paint colors and the hemp sheet plus everything else. I know not one! Okay so maybe the alarm clock is at the top, but there isn’t really a way to rank such awesome items! Also, international readers can participate?! That is awesome!!! As a Canadian reader I am always jealous of all the prizes and purchases that our fellow American counter parts have access too. Thank you for allowing me to participate. Fingers crossed I win, but congrats to the winner if I don’t!
While your giveaway box is filled with so many wonderful items designed to make things beautiful, my favorite is the funny little alarm clock. Imagining the sound of the ringing bell just makes me smile. I know…weird, huh. Congratulations to the one who wins this bevy of delight. As always, Miss Marion, your generosity is overwhelming.
My favorite item is the antique blue and white compote. However, I am most excited about the milk paint. I love using your paints to give lovely antiques a face-lift. You certainly have inspired me.
I love the milk paint and would love to try the European colours and hemp oil!
Love your work.What a great giveaway! My favorite item to pick would be the antique hemp sheet.
Mom and I love the ironstone dishes! But I also love MMS paint! I would love to try the euro colors out!!
Although it is hard to choose, I think the lovely blue and white compote would be my favorite thing in your box. I have been looking for one for a while, and have never discovered the right one. I can see it this fall piled high with pears and maple leaves. Thank you for such a wonderful blog! Reading tt is often the high point of my day.
Best-
Pam
I left a comment before, but I’m leaving a second one because today is my birthday! Fairly recent MMS reader/follower/huge fan wins need give away with beautiful antiques and a cool supply of crafty things… On her birthday?!? Couldn’t be much better!!!
Hello! I really do love it all, but I’ve loved your German glass glitter forever, so if I HAVE to choose one, that is it.
It would be a blessing to win it all! Thanks for the chance!
Tammy 🙂
Ohhhh what a beautiful giveaway!!! It is so hard to choose, everything is lovely but I think I will have to pick the blue and white compote as my favorite!! Fingers and toes crossed!!! Thanks so much for doing this!! XOXO
Marian, I love finding your blog, your openness in sharing the real you, how it all came about, the inspiration to see what could be and it could all change with the beauty of paint.
The gift box is a early Christmas gift for sure, I would love the opportunity to try and use the paint.
I’ve fallen in love with ironstone after seeing the beauty found in the pieces you have shared in your collection.
Congratulations Marian!
Thank you, Debbie from the Northwest
I’d love to win any of it! But I’d especially love the paint and the hemp sheet. I’m in the process of preparing to run my first booth at a vintage market. I’ve been desperate to try your milk paint, but I’m on a shoestring budget! Thanks for putting together such an awesome giveaway, and also for all the insightful posts on starting your business. I’ve been reading religiously and can’t tell you how inspirational it’s all been!
What a wonderful giveaway! Would love to try one of your paints – and the European samples would be great for small projects.
So many great items but my most favourite is the An antique blue & white compote, love it! You inspire me daily..I’m always excited about reading your new blog post..thanks!
My heart skipped a beat and jaw dropped reading this post! I would love to try the European colors on some upcoming projects. However, I feel in love immediately with that alarm clock!! How exciting.
I love…love…love every little bit of your amazing giveaway!!!! But if must choose a favorite it just might have to be the glitter!!!
Love love love the German glass glitter!
What a wonderful gift box box! I think my favorite thing in that cute wooden box would be the paint…..no, the antique compote…no, the paint brush….
OK….my favorite thing in the gift giveaway would be the glitter!
Thanks for your blog that I look forward to reading and a chance to win fun things!
Tammy
Since I have never even seen one of the hemp sheets in person ,I would say that would be my favorite thing to win. The paint supplies be close second because I have tried The milk paint before and I know how great it is!
Oh my gosh! I have to choose! I love the little ironstone dish, but the hemp sheet would be grand, or the milk paint, or…..Oh my, please pick me! And thank you for doing this–love your blog!
I love it all! ? My absolute favorite would have to be the compote. I love using all your products & this giveaway is amazing!
i would love to recover a chair in a hemp sheet.
I love it all! If I have to pick it would be the compote! I love using all your products & this giveaway is amazing!
The paint and the hemp oil! I think I need to try Typewriter and maybe one of the greens.
I would love the Milk Paint as we do not have a dealer near us in Las Cruces, New Mexico.
Pick ONE? Ok, the hemp sheet so i can see why you love them so much
I sure would enjoy the hemp oil! Of course I would enjoy everything listed! ?
Such a very hard choice. Everything is awesome…..I have been following your blog for some time and now my daughter is an avid follower and user of your MMS line…..tonight she just introduced me to the Hemp Oil and how wonderful it is…….so would love the opportunity to win your Hemp Oil and share the rest of your give-away with her…..an early Christmas, for sure!! Thanks so much for the chance & keep up the great work! PS: The blue and white compote would add just the right touch to her new home……
the MMS boxwood
The box of course! I have a 158 year old farm house and would love this package of goodies!
I love, love, love the compote!
Although I don’t possess a single piece of ironstone…and this is not because we all know your fondness for ironstone…the covered ironstone is adorable in it’s simplicity. So squatty!! I do have a fabric compulsion though, so the antique hemp sheet is could be my second “favorite”!!
I am a bit in love with the alarm clock!!!
This giveaway is awesome, and so aptly named. I have been dying to try your milk paints, but with Christmas coming, the German glitter is calling my name. Thank you for the chance at such a generous giveaway. Have a wonderful fall.
Wow! I’m a little late to the party…already over 2,000 replies! It’s super hard to pick just one, because this box is so you and it’s all fabulous! I think I would have to pick the European paint samples…I’ve been itching to try them all since you’ve announced them! Or the tote…I think if I won, I would just display everything and show everyone who came to my studio my “Miss Mustard Seed” corner!
My favorite item in your goodie box would be the hemp oil. I am in the process of restoring a 1924 Craftsman Four Square house that has the original chestnut trim. My plan is to clean the trim and then treat with hemp oil to bring out it’s beauty!!!
The MMS milk paint! My favorite!
The antique hemp sheet!!! I don’t think I’ve ever seen one and it sounds so exotic and French! I love how you use them, and since I’m pretty handy with my sewing machine, I could probably put it to good use.
What a bunch of wonderfulness!! I love your paint & you parson west paint brush is my new favorite. I’ve had so much fun with the glass glitter! Oh the pretty dishes & lovely crate would be oh so fun to use but I can hardly wait to get my hands on a hemp sheet! You & your blog have inspired me to reach for the stars. Thank you Marion for sharing so much of yourself with us. Thank you for an amazing paint brush that is allowing my Purdy one to take a little break!
What a thoughtful gesture. I look forward to reading your blog each evening. I would love to try the hemp oil on some pieces in my stash. Thank you.
I want EVERYTHING! But it would have to be a toss up between the brush or the samples of the European colors.
Paint or the hemp oil, tough decision, but I want to try the new Euro colors. Thanks for
the chance!
My favorite item would be the paint of course, though the hemp oil would be a runner up- it has transformed the wood floors in my boys’ room. It’s no joke!
Hi Marian!
Oh jeez…how can I pick only one favourite item? They’re all fabulous! It would have to be the 3-quart size MMS milk paint in colors I don’t have…yet! I’m fairly new to milk paint and still have lots to learn and find your site full of helpful tutorials.
Oh, what a wonderful basket of yummy things! My favorite item would be the 6 samples of MMS European colours. I’ve wanted to try all of them but haven’t been able to afford to try them out. Everything in this giveaway is lovely, and such a good representation of your style, Miss Mustard Seed! ….::i hope i win….i hope i win….::
My favorite item is the paint because I love to paint and see items come alive! Always enjoy reading your blog!!!
marian
i couldn’t possibly pick a favorite thing i love them all !!!!!!
love your blog you are truly inspirational !!!!
You are so generous!!! What a beautiful giveaway. That is giving one very lucky reader a special early Christmas gift! To choose just one is hard, but I think those European Colours are my favorite. Your blog is so inspiring, thank you for what you do.
MMSMP–I’d be excited to try some new colors!
So excited for the giveaway. I LOVE reading about your business and the path that has taken you where you are today. You are truly an inspiration. I would be most excited about the milk paint 🙂
I am dying to try the milk paints but oh, that clock! I love old clocks.
The Hemp Oil please. I’ve read so much about it over the years. I have a multitude of things I would like to try it on.
Ooooh, so hard to chose! I think my favorite thing would have to be the milk paint, I’ve been so wanting to try it!
I would love to receive all of the items in the box but I think that I would be most excited about the milk paint! I have only used chalk paint but have been dying to try some milk paint.
I would be blessed to win this for my wife…..and I would be done with my Christmas shopping for her too !
Oh my goodness! All the items are great but I would love to try the milk paint!
Hands down it would be the bakelite knives!!!!
I couldn’t help but view the box and all of the wonderful items in the box over and over again, but I have to say that my favorite thing in the box is the thought that went into it!
I think the hemp sheet would be the icing on a very very delicious cake 🙂
Thanks for being so generous!
I love it all but the wood box is my weakness! I enjoy all your inspiration Marion!
Wow! I love everything in the box!!! The blue and white compote and the alarm clock will be right at home in my house. And I really want to try the hemp oil and the hemp sheet. You’re the best, Marian.
Everything is beyond amazing but in love with that old clock- just incredible!!!
Thank you:) glad I found you through Bliss and Tell!!!
So many wonderful treasures in the box! It’s hard to say what intrigues me most, but I’m new to milk paint and ready to try it and the hemp oil!
Thanks for the opportunity to win. You’re such an inspiration, thanks!
My favorite thing would be the hemp oil…I absolutely love how it has so many uses. I use it on my wooden spoons in the kitchen to give a new glow to my antique icebox – it is just a wonderful product. So for that, thank you!!!!
The hemp sheet!
I would be so excited about all of it, but if I had to choose, I would say the sample set of the Euro colors-so versatile!
Wow! Would love it all but would be excited to try out the paintbrush.
I love the ironstone and the wooden tote! Thanks for this opportunity for a giveaway. ?
I cannot believe the generosity of your give away. The “Miss Mustard Seed in a Box” contents to me are a 3-dimensional idea board for your business.
I started my own business rescuing old furniture about a year ago. When I found your website on a search for milk paint, your ideas and your products were my number one inspiration for what was possible. The fact that I had moved recently from Lancaster, PA and seemed like kismet!
Thanks for all you do!
Forgot the most important part of the comment!! Although I love all the items in the box, the hemp sheet is my favorite. I am learning to upholster some of my finds and have been searching eBay for hemp sheets to try!
That blue and white compote just warms my heart in a special way!! 🙂
I love catching up with you and seeing all of your projects. Your delightful offer is filled with so many fun items……how can we pick just one? I do love the little ironstone covered dish and the blue and white compote. There’s just something about old dishes Thanks for inspiring us!
Wow to win this would be like winning the lottery!! I love everything in the box and thank you for your generous spirit. I am always draw to the compotes!! Thanks so much!
What a wonderful array of products! Love the variety of paint colors although that clock is a cutie. Thanks for the generous opportunity.
I love it ALL but if I have to pick one it might be the brownstone dish. 🙂
What a generous giveaway! I think the box was what got my attention in the first place so I would have to choose that as my favorite item. Of course if I win I am sure that answer would change as I used all of the wonderful items!!!
I would love the ironstone piece! We recently went to England. I was so excited about the possibility of finding ironstone there, and came home without a single piece. I honestly thought – has MMS already been here?!? Love the look of ironstone pieces, and how you use them in a room, and would love some for my home! Thanks for sharing your ideas and wisdom! I look forward to your blog each day.
I love everything, but especially the little white covered ironstone dish!
Love everything in the box! Thank you for being so generous and gracious in all that you do. You are a true inspiration!
There are so many things!!! So hard to choose….EEEKK! I would prob have to say the milk paint, we just bought a new house and I am in the process of making it ours… I have so many projects just waiting to be done… But the knives and ironstone will look great on my new open shelves I installed in my dining room… All of it… I love all of it!!
Oh my stars and garters! What a LOVELY and generous giveaway! I’m just delighted with EVERYTHING in the ‘Miss Mustard Seed in a Box’ but honestly the thing that makes my heart go pit-a-pat most of all …. the hemp sheet. As a seamstress and natural fiber fabric enthusiast, I’ve been longing to get my hands on one and create something lovely! I found just one strip of a sheet – the meticulous hand stitching still somewhat in tact, and I made a runner for our table. A new acquaintance who came for tea and scones admired that runner … and it went home with her! I’d make a replacement for sure – it was such a lovely addition to our table. Thank you for the opportunity to win!
Oh, my what a wonderful give away! I have become an avid fan since discovering your site ~ 6 months ago & have recently started collecting ironstone. However I think the thing I would like best is the antique hemp sheet. Thanks for the give away, it’s just fun to dream for awhile what you could do with all the wonderful items.
It would be the milk paint,but everything is lovely.Fingers crossed
What a giveaway bonanza. Everything you are offering would be well received, but if I had to select just one item I think it would be the covered ironstone dish. I’d also welcome the MMSMP products but I may already have enough to finish the projects on my to do list. And I’m (currently) not anticipating starting any others . . . but you never know.
Such an abundance of riches!
Love your blog and would love to win your giveaway in a box. Been collecting boxes and blue China for awhile now. Have a great fall with all the brilliant colors. Thanks.
I LOVE everything in the Miss Mustard Seed Box! It offers something from every aspect of your blog. The paint would be awesome….it keeps on giving and I’ve been wanting to try the German Glass Glitter and of course a keepsake piece of Ironstone would be fabulous and probably my FAVORITE!! 😉 Thank you-Lori
I would love the Hemp Oil!
What an awesome giveaway, it truly seems like your perfect style wrapped up in a box!!
I would love everything, in particular the antique blue and white compote. Now I will keep my fingers crossed 😉
Thank you!
Oh, my! Sooo hard to choose just one thing out of that box, but I’d say that my ultimate favorite would have to be the blue and white compote. It is beautiful!
What a wonderful idea! I am a sucker for Ironstone. I also love the clock too!
It’s kind of hard to choose a favorite of all those lovely items, but I’ve been dying to paint something/anything in Arabesque. So I guess I’ll choose the paint as my favorite thing in the box!!!
The blue compote is my favorite!! I’d be thrilled to win. Never tried your paints, but have always loved the results. Saying a prayer to win!
Oh my goodness! What an amazing giveaway! Thank you for being so incredibly generous, not only with this giveaway, but in the sharing of your story. It has been so inspiring to read about your beginnings!!!
Sara
Hard to choose only one but II love the clock.
Your book, Inspired You. I checked this out of the library a little more than a year ago and it was at the right time for me to read it and it became part of a changing process in my life with making the best with what you have.
Oh my gosh… seriously?!!! You are offering an amazing assortment of treasure in your giveaway! To choose which my favorite item in the gift box would be, well, it seems nearly impossible. I would cherish your book!!!, the knives, the covered ironstone dish, the clock, the compote and the wooden box… But I think I would most adore having an assortment of your Miss Mustard Seed products at my fingertips, at the ready for me to jump in and discover the world of milk paint wonders for myself! I have so enjoyed following your blog and watching the videos you and Kriste have made of painting the dresser and transforming Megan’s beautiful office, and you make it all look so effortless and fun. It would be a lovely opportunity to have all the required products to transform and upcycle some items in my “stash” into unique gifts for the coming holiday season!
Thank you Marion for the opportunity to enter your giveaway. Have a lovely day!
Cate
What a lovely way to reminisce! I think it’s a tie between the paint and the tote.
I would love to have that alarm clock! Everything is amazing.
Everything you are putting in the box sounds wonderful!! I love the old ironstone dish and the blue & white compote would look beautiful in my bedroom or bathroom. I would love having your book just for the inspiration. I do think my favorite thing would be the Miss Mustard Seed products. Just having several colors at my fingertips might inspire me to get started on some projects I’ve wanted to do in my home.
Kelly
At first I panicked…. I thought I had missed the date! I love the bonding agent! I do not live close enough (I’m in Maine!) to attend a class, so the you tube videos were a godsend! My mom and I took the plunge and used that with your paint to refinish our check-in desk that was made with paneling….memories were made! Lol That bonding agent made all the difference on paneling!! Awesome stuff!
Postscript
I’m kinda partial to the blue & white twine too!
My favourite is the wooden box. My main reason for leaving a comment and entering the competition is the opportunity to try MMS milk paint. Thank for this opportunity. Best regards from Norway.
I would be excited about the ironstone…..I don’t have any pieces .
I love your products and have used several of them.
This is a great giveaway!!
I thought that I had posted, but I do not see my comments. If I posted twice, so sorry. I LOVE it all. Maybe, I love the ironstone piece a teensy bit more, nope, the compote. Nah, I like the silverware. Wait, hemp oil! Paintttt…Thanks for doing such a wonderful giveaway. Marian, you are the best!
This box of goodies I would give to my sister, but I would keep the alarm clock for myself!
I think the best part about this giveaway would just be the fact it is coming from you (seriously)! But if I had to really pick one thing, it would probably be the antique hemp sheet (can you really pick just one though??) I would have to really search hard to find the perfect piece to reupholster. The milk paint and hemp oil are a close second. I would be just as happy to have a life-size signed poster of you HAHA JK! You’re the best!! 🙂
Oh I love everything about that box! If I had to choose I think the whole line of paints would be my favorite.
I have been using hemp oil as a finish and am very happy with the results. The new colours look amazing. So much inspiration. Thank you for all that you share!
Would Love to have absolutely any of it.
It’s hard to pick just one thing! I think it would be the wax distressing puck, so I could try a new technique with MMS milk paint. Though I’d be ecstatic to win anything you are giving away!
It is all lovely, but I am partial to the clock. Have a great day!
Thank you so much for making this available to international readers. I remember the very first post I read on your blog…where you had been given a piece of furniture and you had put together a mudroom(I think) in what is now your family office. You have been on a wild ride since then! Thank you for continuing to inspire us all. Ruth in NZ.
I have used milk paint on two pieces of furniture. When I look at them I realize I am still in the beginning stages. So to choose one thing from your giveaway it would be the MMSMP Look Book One. I have a few more pieces I would like to do and look forward to the challenge. There are many advantages to living in Alaska but one disadvantage is not Being able to host one of your workshops here. I enjoy following you on Facebook as well as your blog.
Ooops forgot my favourite item! I think it would be the chance to try the milk paint.
Last year I visited my brother in Canada,and I got introduced to mms milk paint. I took some colours home to Holland and from that moment I love milk paint. But my favorite piece will be the Parsons West brush! would love to try it out!
The covered ironstone dish is my absolute favorite piece in the box. Not only is it beautiful but also very practical for any room in the home. ?
This is such an amazing give-away and every single item in there would be on my wish list, but the Alfred Meakin Ironstone and the hemp sheet would have to be at the top of my list. I had an aunt who taught me her love of ironstone about 20 years ago and the Meakin pieces were always her favorite and became mine. When she passed away, I was supposed to receive a few of her pieces, including a covered dish, but it did not happen. Thank you so much for the opportunity of winning such an amazing give-away!
I love everything, but I absolutely love the alarm clock, there is just something about old alarm clocks that is so beautiful.
Would love everything! I think I would love the paint the most! Especially seeing all the colors in person! I have been working with chalk paint, and would live to try your milk paint, the colors are so beautiful in all your pictures! Thank you for all your inspiration!
My favorite would be the mud paint. I by accident came across your blog last summer and now I am a frequent visitor. If I a question about something relating to home decor I usually can find it on your blog. I also use your product regularly.
Thank you 🙂
My favorite is the old clock … But the paint would be so fun, the books inspiring, the brush a real treat, and the hemp sheet fabulous I imagine .,. I’ve never experienced it. Thank you for putting together a most thoughtful and delightful gift! ?Robin
Wow, that’s a great giveaway! My favorite would be the hemp sheet and all the new color samples – those would be fun to play with.
Everything looks like so much fun! New products to try are always a treat, but my heart beat a little faster when I saw the Antique Hemp Sheet.
Oh my goodness what a generous giveaway, and so very *you*! I love every single item….. I guess my favorite would either be the milk paint, or the hemp sheet (which I missed out on in your online store!) When I think of your blog I think of beautiful interior design first and foremost, then painted furniture and your wonderful slipcovers come to mind immediately. Thanks so much for a chance to win, Marian!
What an incredibly generous giveaway! So hard to narrow it down to one item, everything looks so fun! The box itself (the actual container) would be a wonderful win by itself. A supply of MMS paint would be a dream come true. I already have your lovely book, Inspired You, but several friends have been coveting my copy, so I would have a gift for one of them and I’m sure they would enjoy it as much as I have. Ultimately I think I would be most excited about the lovely blue & white antique compote. I never used to think of using blue & white in all seasons until following your blog. Now I can just see it with mini pumpkins & pine cones in fall, vintage small Christmas Shiny Bright-type ornaments for the holidays and beyond. See, you really have “inspired me!”
Wow, just Wow! I kept scrolling down to read about each addition and thought, surely, that must be it by now, but no, it just kept on going! I would be most excited to try out those Euro colors. I have already used MMS on two large pieces, a headboard and a dresser/sideboard and am so pleased with how they turned out.
oh Marian – how i would love to receive “the best of MMS!” – especially the paint and supplies because it would get me going -I wouldn’t have any more excuses – I blanch at the idea of acquiring everything I need to begin, and I would so love to! The lidded ironstone dish makes my heart jump and – alarm clock?! too much.
Someone is going to be a very very happy devotee – hope it’s ME 🙂
Oh my! What a fabulous and generous gift! It’s hard to pick a favorite, but I think the sample packets of all the new colors might be it! On the other hand, I’ve always been a girl who could not pass up glitter. Hmmmmm.
All of it??? But the paint and the wax and the hemp oil are my largest temptations!!
Thanks.
The antique hemp sheet. Wow, somebody is going to be a happy winner!
SUCH a tough call! I love the ironstone. But I think I’d pick the generous serving of Hemp Oil! I’ve ‘discovered’ you fairly recently, and I’m so pleased with all I’ve learned so far – such as why and how to use Hemp Oil. I’ve been saving up to get some to work on some of the things in my pre-Civil War house (with no heat! but that’s another story!)
Thanks for sharing so much creativity!
Best,
Mary Anne
Canton, NC
Hello Marian,
Wow! This isn’t a box, it is a truckload of goodness. I would have to say that my favorite would have to be the paint. I love to mix up the paint, load the brush and guide it across the furniture. It’s magic. Thanks for your inspiration and your ability to share your blessings with others. Take care, Sheila.
I would love to try your milk paint line. I have some furniture that is just needing a face lift and I think this goodie box would be the push I need to get started on my projects. Love your blog and the fact that you share the good and the bad. You are truly one of a kind.
What a wonderful giveaway! I love the blue and white ironstone compote. It would fit perfectly with my ironstone collection! 🙂
Are you kidding me?! What an awesome giveaway! 🙂
My favorite is everything, but if that’s not okay, thennn…the clock, because it’s unique; but the paint is always a fave and exciting to get because of all the possibilities. Thanks for the opportunity and being so generous and fun!
It’s all wonderful! But, I’m partial to the clock and the bakelite flatware. Such great patinas!
What a fantastic giveaway! I have really loved watching your blog grow. I think my favorite thing in the MMS box would be the European samples. I’m really excited to see what I can do with them!
oh my gosh! What a fantastic giveaway! It’s hard to choose but probably the paint or hemp oil or glitter…..see what I mean. Too hard to choose!
I pick MMS Glass Glitter in Tiara. I love love Love all of it though, everything you touch turns into something beautiful. Great offer for some lucky winner!
As I read the post, I couldn’t believe everything you’ve included! It’s so much great stuff! If I had to pick just one, I think it’s the twine. I’ve been slightly obsessed with it since the first time I saw it on your blog. 🙂
Oh how I would love to win!!! I love everything in the box but would really love to own the brush and some milk paint. I’ve got several pieces of furniture that I’d like to paint, when I get up the nerve, and the money for paint. I love your blog and read it daily. I even save some of them for reference. Thank you for this chance to win. God Bless.
Wow…a very generous giveaway! My pick would be the blue compote…..beautiful!
Lots of things to love, but the top of my list is the hemp sheet. I’ve never seen one, and would like to sew with one.
My favorite item is the hemp sheet, closely followed by the paint!
It is hard to chose a favorite thing! I will pick the covered ironstone dish. Love all your products.
Hemp oil or brush or your book, hemp oil or brush or your book, hemp oil or brush or your book hmmmmm.?
Hi Marion,
I would really like to own one of the Parsons West brushes!
This is an amazing give away package! I would be thrilled with any of the items.
I can remember thinking it would be great to win frog tape when your blog was fairly new. You’ve come so far and it’s well deserved, you’re such a hard worker! I used to think you could get 48 hours of work done in an average 16 hour day and you did it with a smile and kind heart. Bless you!
I recently inherited a piano from my mother in law. Your beautiful paints will help me make it my own! The clock is sweet, too!
I would LOVE the milk paint! It would get my creative juices flowing and maybe I would start painting some of the pieces that need it!
I have to pick the hemp oil from the items that are going to be used up….have had it before and love it, but it’s not readily available close by. The ironstone speaks to me of the permanent items. All that you’ve picked is special! ?
Wow, so many beautiful things which makes for an impossible choice of what to covet the most. However, you asked for a most wanted item to enter this generous giveaway so I would say that the hemp sheet is probably speaking to me the most at the moment. That may change tomorrow but the hemp sheet it is for today. Although, if I said “the box” would that include the contents? If that is my way to choose everything then I’d like to change my answer!
I’d love the samples of the European line. It all sounds so nice!
I just found your website — and what an incredibly generous gift you offer! My favorite item would be the beautiful table knives. Will look forward to reading and seeing more!
Glitter glass…sigh…been wanting some of it for a long time and with Christmas right around the corner…
Such a difficult choice to just pick one thing from all those FABULOUS items! Love MMS.
It would be such a THRILL to be the winner of that amazing giveaway package, and my favorite part of all would be the antique hemp sheet! I’ve followed your blog for years and have always loved the projects you’ve done using that gorgeous antique fabric. Your entire blog, the writing, photos, design advice, projects and tutorials, all of it, is like food for my soul, Marian!
It is hard to choose a favorite as any one of these would be wonderful! The blue compote is lovely and would look great with my blue and white pottery. What a great give away! Thanks for thinking of your readers.
I love giveaways! My favorite is the blue compote but I love all of it. Thanks!
I would love the paint products but the ironstone compote would put me over the moon!!
I never win anything so I don’t know who I’m kidding here!
Wow, what a great giveaway! It’s so hard to choose just one thing but honestly I would really just love to try out the milk paint. I’ve always wanted some but budget never allows for it. The clock is super cute too! 🙂 Thanks for the chance!
Since I can’t have Marian in a box (not in a creepy way…hahaha =0) ) my dream prize would be to meet you in person, work with you and Kriste, and just learn from you. Not just about home stuff but about life: how to be a godly wife, mother, friend, boss, worker, mentor, etc. As a newlywed in our first home and being on a tight budget, finding your site was a God-send as it has helped me in so many ways in my new role. As you can see from many, you are cared for and appreciated…even from afar. My husband and I would gladly put each item in that basket to good use…but if I must pick ONE favorite thing, it would be your milk paint because it’s this creative product you made, I’ve never tried it before or seen it in person, I’m not local so it’it’s not easily accessible to me, and I’m learning from you that I like paint (I like all colors…so much that even my wedding dress was all different colors).
Thank you !
I went to write my response when there were only 7 comments and now look – over 2000!!!! That is an incredible response for an INCREDIBLE give-away!!! I am sure at this point, a winner may have already been chosen, but here is a go! I know that the item I would treasure out of the box would be the hemp sheet. I have a vintage sofa something like the one you painted in Schloss and I just know that the finishing touch would be hemp sheet upholstery. While I am completely a fan of all of the items…ironstone and I go waaay back, and I LOVE your paints and products…the hemp sheet is a luxury item that is currently out of reach. I am a single mom of 4, and my recent unemployment has been a blessing in disguise – I stumbled upon your blog, milk paint and now I am refinishing furniture to survive – and I have never felt as happy, creative, and fulfilled… I know I am finally on the path I was meant to be on! Thanks for your blog, many tutorials and through them, all of your encouragement, support, and knowledge, you have truly been an inspiration!
This is a fabulous giveaway!! I would cherish each and every item but my fav would be the paint as I LOVE your paint. Thanks so much for the chance to win 🙂 I really am grateful for your constant inspiration. Keep it coming 🙂
I love your paint, but that blue and white compote is perfection. Thank you for sharing all of the beautiful things I associate with Miss Mustard Seed!
I would absolutely love the hemp sheet!!! As well as everything else.
What a generous giveaway! And it’s difficult to choose just one thing … but I would have to put the hemp sheet at the top of my list. Followed closely by the ironstone dish. There isn’t a lot of ironstone available out west where I live, but I sure have fun hunting for it. Thanks for sharing your vision and talents in such an accessible way.
What a wonderful, generous, and inspiring offer! Now, if only the lucky winner could meet and work with you on a project it would be even better!
If I had to pick just one thing it would be a super difficult choice but, I would go with the paint. When my mother passed she left me some pieces of her antique furniture, including the child’s roll top desk she had since she was 6 years old! All of the pieces are dark and the thought of giving them new life with a product like your milk paint has my mind going 90 miles an hour!
I loved the series on how you started your business as it is an inspiration for those of us who want to go down the same creative path. Keep up the good work and keep the inspiration coming!
I would enjoy the paint samples. It would be so fun to try all of them out!
I really enjoy your blog. Thanks!
Such a hard decision. I love everything in the box, but I would have to say the milkpaint items would be my first love. I love that it is your creation, and I love what you “create” with it . As many others have done, I have to thank you for being such an inspiration to me. It has been such a joy watching you and your business grow. You are proof that one can start small and in a few years find yourself flourishing in success. I am inspired every time I read your blog. Thank you for the give-away, and thank you for sharing your goodness with all of us. God Bless you.
What a generous gift…Everything is just wonderful but if I had to choose, it would be that beautiful blue and white compote.
You are a blessing to me, to all who read and meet you. I have had the wonderful privilege to do both! When you connect with someone in such a positive way in which you do AND with so many, what a success you are and a true example of God’s love. Anything from Miss Mustard Seed is a huge nugget of happiness and glee for me that any one item from the box would set me off for days! My favorite would be the ability to try the paint as I have not had the opportunity to date.
I love your blog, your photography, all your vintage things!
i follow you from this september when i’m searching to use milk paint and i saw you and your beautiful yellow chest of drawers and your smiling!!!
I’m from Italy (Milan) and there’s no many places to buy your products (i bought in june in new York Layla’s Mint)…and i love it!!! i love your blue and white compote for my sweetie madeleines!!
Many kisses from Italy!
Laura
WOW what an awesome giving away your too kind! I have to say my fav is the blue compote pedestal I’m a sucker for the blues!!
I love every item in the box, but I would say that the milk paint would be my favorite. I have wanted to try MMS Milk Paint but we do not have a local dealer in my area. 🙁 And, I have not pressed the buy now button for an online order. Thanks for such a wonderful opportunity!
WOW! Really hard to pick favorite item. Have been wanting to try the milk paint, but I do upholstering and make slipcovers, so the antique hemp sheet would surely be fun to work with. And that adorable paint brush with the unique design is just itching to hit my hands….
Enough said?
Love everything, but the milk paint supplies are my favorite!
Omigoodness! How generous. Everything is so lovely … that little clock is calling out to me! Thanks for being so kind.
What a wonderful giveaway! Honestly, I love everything in the box and would put it all to good use. We’re a military family (my husband was just retired) and about to close on our “forever retirement home”. If I had to pick a favorite, however, it would be either the MMS paint or your book. You’ve been such an inspiration to me for years I’d love for you to come help decorate my new house, but since that isn’t realistic this box would definitely be the next best thing! Thank you for the opportunity to possibly win it! 🙂
I love everything in the giveaway box. I would really love the sample colors of the European LIne, I have been dying to get my hands on those colors to try!!!! I love your milk paint I use it on just about everything!
What an amazingly generous giveaway! I think the ironstone is my favorite. I love everything you put together!
What is not to love! Every. Single. Piece. I love mix of materials and textures. But to pick a favorite…the ironside dish!
Such a generous giveaway! I’d love try the paint, but that white ironstone dish is calling to me as well!
Wow! What a generous giveaway,such fabulous items. I would have to go with the paint. I have painted a small cabinet and would love to paint more.
I couldn’t possibly pick just one! I think the paint? I have a good stash of furniture and I’m sure I could make good use of it and transform a few pieces….❤️?
Thank you so much for the opportunity. While all the items are great (love the antique items!), the paints and materials would be my favorite. I have a few items (a dresser and a couple of small tables) “in the wings” as you say that need some attention, and I’ve been procrastinating a bit because knowing what products to use and learning new paint techniques is a bit intimidating. Winning the box of items would be the motivation I need to start tackling these, and learning a bunch in the process.
Regardless of who wins, though, I just want to say that I so love your blog, your decorating tips, and your wonderful way of communicating with those of us who follow you. Thank you, for all you do for us at-home decorators and DIYers.
Such an abundant and beautiful selection, but I thought immediately of the glorious paint, paint, paint! Followed by the hemp textile, I think…
I am just beginning to entertain the idea of refinishing some furniture, so for me the books that are included excite me the most, and of course the paints are a close second!
I couldn’t find the comment I left when you first posted this giveaway, and I panicked! I’d love to try the Euro colors and the hemp oil, but honestly I’d especially just like to have one of your tags! I live in Arizona and will probably never get to shop one of your booths, so that would be pretty cool :).
WOW…pretty amazing giveaway! If I had to pick, it is easy for me. I would pick the milk paint. To me it represents hope in a can. I recently found out that we are in debt due to circumstances I was not aware of and had not been disclosed to me by a member of my family. So I would use the paint on some thrift store tables I have had for awhile that I intended to paint and sell. Cash is precious right now and only for the absolute necessities. I am sure that whoever gets this is going to be blessed and God bless you, Marion, for your life and testimony to His goodness and grace.
It’s hard to choose but I would have to go with the ironstone and the knives! Thanks for the very generous give away.
Bonnie
I love when someone to wants to share their ‘favorite’ things! When I look at your blog your photos always capture my attention, such peace and perfect composition. I love how you share, not just information and knowledge, but always from your heart. So, Thank You Marian! You already give so much and it is truly appreciated. I think I might be like many people who are not in your area, at least here in So. Cal. I don’t see much of your product . While I know it can be ordered online it’s different being able to touch, hold and see in person. So if I were to win your give away the thing I would love most I think would be the samples of the European colors. It would be great fun to try them out! I have purchased the Hemp Oil by the way and I Love Love Love it! Excellent product! Be blessed as you share with ‘us’ out here in blog land, your words and your heart touch many, let them see a little Jesus, and isn’t that what it’s all about?
I love the compote and the ironstone. The milk paint would come in handy because I have a few projects lined up. I am painting a pretty wooden bookcase that I’m going to store my fabric on. I make quilts and some of the fabric is to pretty to be put in a box. I am also painting the kitchen built in and I still haven’t decided on a color yet. I wanted to go with white and my boyfriend said we need color!
I like all the items, but I would love to try the pretty glass glitter!
The Paint!! I have an old armoire who is patiently waiting for her makeover and since you live too far away, I will Mustardize her myself! Wish me luck?
The individually wrapped soaps and the clock.
Who could just pick one? I love every item! The paints would be great for all my rummage finds,and the antique items are just the icing on the cake! Love your blog. Keep on inspiring!
What a fabulous and generous giveaway! If I had to pick just one item it would be the blue & white compote. Everything in the box is so lovely. Thank you for the opportunity to enter!
I love all the items, but if I have to pick on, it’s the milk paint…..I’m just dying to try it on a piece of furniture….thanks for the chance to win your wonderful prize package 🙂
I don’t think that my first entry went through, so will try again – don’t want to miss out on this fantastic prize!
My comment was the first time that my favourite part of the give-away is the paint….it is fantastic and I do have several projects that would love a little MMS Love but the most important part is the fact that this paint comes from Canada and is a wonderful example of the great neighbours that we are…backdoor neighbours…the best kind!
Thank you!
I love the ironstone and the compote. You have inspired me to collect ironstone and I have a lovely stash. And I’m obsessed with cake stands and comptes. I love all your work. You are such an inspiration to me!!!
I don’t think my first entry went through so I am trying again…..First, thanks so much for allowing international entries. So many contests are “US only” so its wonderful to be included!
I love everything in this box! I’d love to try the European colours, the glitter and of course add to my “Miss Mustard Seed” inspired collection of ironstone. The hemp sheet would be amazing to have–so many possibilities.
Thanks again. You are a true inspiration!
What an awesome give away! I love your paint line so that would be great and I love the alarm clock…oh and the old knife set 🙂
Thank you for the inspiration!
This is an amazing giveaway. Who every the lucky winner is, will truly enjoy it. I would still have to say your paint is my all time favorite. You have a true gift. Thank you for all you do and the way you inspire others.
Definitely the Ironstone 🙂 You’ve kind of got Me hooked & I’m starting to grow quite a collection..But then again,I’d love to use that antique hemp sheet on My next Bergere Chair redo!!
Wow!! That is an amazing give-away! Even one of those would be great. I love the compote and the ironstone and the paint and….. I have found your blog to be full of great ideas and wonderful pictures. It would be good if I actually did one of the many ideas I get from your blog, instead of just reading more and more entries:). Thanks for sharing with all of us. I can’t imagine the work that goes into this everyday, but I know I really appreciate it.
It all looks fun – I’ve never tried milk paint! But the wooden tote is my favorite!
I absolutely love everything. But the paint would be my favorite if I won because it would allow me to transform several pieces of furniture. I’ve already used it three time and I am addicted!
I LOVE and want it all! What a fabulous giveaway! But since I can only choose one, it would be your paint in my choice of colors. I would have a blast painting furniture and other unique vintage wood items with your paint. I do love your daily posts and hope to get my blog going too. I have painted for years but have only painted for resell two years and I love it very much! I have especially enjoyed your posts of how you started and your journey to where you are now and the new paths you are traveling with your business. It would be wonderful if you would visit my Facebook page and send me a message about what you think. Thanks Marian for this opportunity and YOU are going to make someone, maybe me, very happy!
I would like to thank you for the opportunity to win this amazing giveaway. I injured my hand a few years ago and that ended my music career. I have been paralyzed to try new things since then until I came across your blog a few weeks ago. Since then, I started “mustardizing” everything in my great room. I bough your french enamel and ironstone paint and I painted 3 pieces so far. I also muster the courage to do a room reset (my husband thought we were moving) and I started to collect ironstone so I would have to say that my favorite piece in the giveaway is the covered ironstone dish. You know you’ve been hit by the ironstone bug when your 3 year old starts to recognize it in antique shops. Thank you very much for the inspiration!
Wow. Wow. There are so many great things here! There are paint colors that I don’t have, so that interests me. The goodies? Oh my! The clock, the compote, the books, the HEMP SHEET! All of those things make my heart go pitter pat. I will admit that the one thing that made me “oooooooooh” outloud was the large size of Hemp Oil; I love this stuff and my husband and dog are lucky they have not been oiled. I thought about this all overnight, and I now have my answer.
Although everything in this giveaway box is amazing, the true MVP of this bunch is the Bonding Agent. Why? It is the miracle stuff…the time saver….the game changer….the heart and sole of Miss Mustard Seed Milk Paint. It is what makes all the fun possible, the unsung hero. It is the most amazing thing in this box and has heard me whisper “I love you” in it’s ear..uh…neck.
Thanks Marion for creating cool stuff and sharing it with us!
I am a beginner painter and a lover of vintage finds. Therefore I absolutely love everything in this giveaway! Especially the hemp sheet. However, I haven’t used your milk paint before and was going to order some today when I saw your post. So I would be most excited (an completely overjoyed ?) to win the milk paint!! ??
Oh my goodness – what a generous giveaway. As I scrolled through the post, I thought “this just keeps getting better.” My favorite item is the MMS paint. I haven’t tried it yet and would love to!!!
Well this is just too good to watch it slip away, you have made me come out of the woodwork 🙂 Thank you so much for including your international followers!! You have been such an inspiration and have helped me more then you know with making my house a home and just changing my outlook in such a positive way. I have started looking around to start my very own collection of Ironstone and I think the beautiful compote would be an awesome first piece! I’m crossing my fingers!! Thank you again and best of luck to everyone.
The paints! Of course! But everything is quite wonderful!
Have wanted to try both the hemp sheets and milk paint for a long while. Thank you.
I think the hemp sheet would be my most favorite……..but, the chance to try out your paints
would run a close second!
My favorite item is the alarm clock. I don’t know what it is about them, but I have a small wall decorated with clocks and just love the older ones! Love your blog and what a great thing your giveaways are! It would be such a thrilling thing to win!!!
Wow! What a thoroghly expressive and complete collection of your artistry in a box. I think you will need a U-Haul to store all these comments. Should Providence grant me the fortune of winning this lot, my favorite items would be the art supplies. Your offer of the wonderful selection of paints speaks to my artistic side and the dining room chairs that need a makeover. You, Marian, are definately on the right path!
The compote is my favorite piece in the box but I love it ALL!
Thanks for the opportunity to win. I would love to try the hemp oil and the glass glitter.
This is a very tough decision to make but I must say that I love the box itself! And everything in it is just a bonus! I love old worn wood in all it’s lovely shapes and forms and the more primitive the better! The hemp sheets and glass glitter would be something in the box that I have not yet worked with but would be excited to try! I would sooooo enjoy shopping with you because I love everything you buy…things with wheels, knobs, ironstone and now plants!
I met you briefly when you were in Toronto and look forward to your posts. I’m so glad this giveaway is open to your international friends!
Your generous spirit and faith are an inspiration to me!
The antique hemp sheet reminds me of well-worn and gorgeous reclining chairs with handmade fabric my grandparents had while I was growing up in India. I recently found a chair that looks similar to those recliners. Would love to refinish it in Artissimo and this fabulous fabric. I am getting misty eyed thinkibg how thrilled my siblings and cousins would be if I can show them the finished chair. Crossing fingers!
I adore it all but would love to try some of your paint!!
When I first saw your contest I thought… Cool a free giveaway !
Then you asked for us to comment which item we liked the most. I began looking over the items and that’s when it hit me… I started Mirrored Image almost 5 years ago… Life got away from me, with kids and my mom moving in with us. But the clock, in your giveaway, spoke volumes to my heart.
It is time I make my dream of a home business come true !
Win or no win I know what its time for !
(Ps if this is on here 2x’s in sorry, my tablet is messing up)
I would so love to win this! I would especially like to try some of your milk paint! I love your blog and follow it closely 🙂
Just realised my original comment may not have entered due to not doing the robot thing properly. Thank you for making this available to us international readers. I have read you blog for years and it has deeply influenced my outlook on my home…and a lot of the input too. Bless you for your desire to bless others.
Wow! What a wonderful giveaway!! All the items listed are fabulous,…& it sooo hard to chose a favorite, but I would have to chose the MMS Paint as my fave!!
I just recently started using your paint and I love it, I’d really like to try that hemp oil and the brush looks like something I need in my life, but hands down, that sweet little clock just won my heart. Thank you for the inspiration and encouragement you give us all.
Chris
I’d love the most to win the paint and brush – I so want to try it! But that ironstone covered dish is making my dish lovin’ heart beat hard! Thanks for the chance to win!
Oh, too many options to choose from and so little time.
I’ve been so impressed with you used the hemp oil to transform wood, I’d love to try that.
Adorable vintage clock too.
Good luck to all!
I would love the chance to try your beautiful milk paints! Haven’t been able to acquire any yet but they are definitely on my wish list!
All of it is GREAT, but I guess the clock ranks pretty high. That would have to be my first pick! How great to be able to enter this giveaway. So neat. Love your design so much. Must be a kindred spirit.
To win your giveaway would make me feel the same way you did after having your first 2,000 followers – like opening a Christmas gift. I would like most of all your 3 quarts of milk paint, the six European color samples, hemp oil and the bonding agent. How much fun it would be to use these additional items to paint in the quiet night time hours.
My very favorite thing would be the mms paint! I have been dying to try your paint! But I have to say, I absolutely love everything in the box!
I can’t believe one lucky winner gets “all” of it!! This would definitely be fitting under your ramblings on being grateful. I mean WOW what an amazing prize. As far as picking a favorite it would definitely be the milk paint. I’ve followed your blog for a couple of years now and have had the pleasure of meeting you twice at the chapel market in Pike Road, AL, but I’ve never used your milk paint before. I’ve been dying to try it out but I guess I’m a little intimidated by it so this would be the perfect way for me to try it.
OMG! What an awesome giveaway! Please say I won’t be disqualified if I can’t pick just ONE favorite thing. I love all your products and specially want to try your new brush. BUT the vintage items are really cool! I love ironstone and have quite a few pieces but nothing like the covered dish. BUT the compote is gorgeous and the alarm clock is dreamy! Please pick me!!!!!!
What a box of treasures! I think the blue and white compote is amazing; how come I don’t ever find something like that?
Everything is beyond wonderful… Including the box! My favorite is mms paint and can’t wait to try the new colors.
Sorry if you have this more than once, my tablet is acting out and has cut out three times now.
Your book. I love inspirational books, and you are such an inspiration. Not only in home decor, but what someone with a will and a way can accomplish. It is almost an old fashioned trait. I love everything you do and your willingness to share.
So hard to choose, but maybe the paintbrush. But then the hemp sheet would be amazing, too!!!
Oh wow! What a generous offering! I would be most excited over the milk paint – 3 full colors and the European samples – I’ve been wanting to try so many colors – especially the soft and gorgeous European line. Since I’ve discovered your milk paint, I’ve been transforming pieces throughout my house -11 pieces total – so far I’ve used Linen, Shutter Gray, Luckets Green, and French Enamel. I’m hooked! The brush and book I will cherish. The inclusion of the antique finds are like getting everything on your Christmas list plus so much more you could only dream of! I have only recently begun my foray into consignment shops and thrifting – can’t afford true antique shops yet – but the the thrill of the hunt and find has firmly been implanted within me. Buying used is infinitely more fun than buying new! Thank you for your inspiring story and work and for the opportunity to win this fabulous assortment of goodies!
I would be pleased as punch just to win one of the lovely things you have included in your give away! But I just LOVE your paint so I can’t even imagine choosing anything else. Even though I probably can’t afford a hemp sheet and it would be fabulous to win my heart belongs to the paint!!
I would love to try the samples of the European line!
Any item in the giveaway would be a wonderful gift. My most desired would be your paint supplies and the elusive hemp sheet. I have projects on hand for both! Thanks for the chance to win!
All of the prizes are amazing. I’ve never had any of your paints or hemp sheets, so they would be super exciting.
Your books would be my favorite. After purchasing and renovating a farmhouse built in 1899, I need all the inspiration I can get. Your blog has inspired and helped me in so many ways, thank you.
My favorite is the container of MMS Glass Glitter!
What a great gift box! I think my favorite thing is the hemp oil. But, there is that cute blue and white compote…and the dish addict in me is drawn to the covered ironstone dish. It is all wonderful. Your tutorials have inspired me to make slipcovers for some of the furniture at our farm and I have ordered the fabric for my first upholstery project-a little french chair given to me by my favorite neighbor when she moved. On your recommendation I borrowed “Whole 30” from the library and lost 10 pounds! It has been fun to read your blog and watch your business grow.
All are great, but the paint would be great.
The paint samples would be wonderful
Ah! So glad I saw this, just in the nick of time! My favorite thing in the box would be your milk paint! I’ve been wanting to try it, but have been on a tight budget lately and have had to wait. I’d be thrilled to win and get to try all your products, to discover a new technique I’m sure I’ll love. Thanks for the opportunity!
It’s hard to choose a favorite with so many great things in the box, but for me, I think the paint would be number one, then the glass glitter and compote, just for pretties!
I love the little white ironstone dish!! Miss Mustard Seed re-ignited my dormant desire to collect white ironstone when I first began following her blog several years ago. Of course I would enjoy/use/ accept!!!!!!!!! any/all of the beauteous things in this incomparable giveaway. Please & thank you!!
This is incredible! It’s such a generous gesture, and promises to bring much joy to a lucky reader. The piece that really speaks to me is the alarm clock. I am always running late – my hubby and friends call it “Holly time”. Maybe if I had a gorgeous alarm clock like this one, I’d be motivated to get going earlier. Then I’d have more time to finish painting that old desk that’s been in our front room for more months than I care to admit. And even if it doesn’t cure my chronic lateness, my bedroom would be that much more beautiful.
I am so crying because I’ve been out of town at a seminar and I totally missed entering this by a day! What beautiful items you are offering! Someone will be very lucky!!
It all looks wonderful but I’d be most excited about the hemp oil and the milk paint… I have so many projects and I’m dying to try both!
I’m so bummed that I missed the deadline for the giveaway but I have to say I love the ironstone and would love to play with paint. Equal favorites.
Thanks so much.
Lisa
So cool that you put this on!!! It was exciting just to see all the goodies! You are so awesome! I have been watching and learning from your blog and videos for a while and I so appreciate you time and energy! Thanks! Cheers to more milk paint adventures!
I’m so upset I missed out on this giveaway! Everything in the box looks amazing… If I HAD made the deadline, I’d be most excited about the hemp oil and the milk paint. I have an old pie safe my grandpa gave me. It’s currently in pieces in my apartment (he took it apart to strip it and clean it), so now I just need to put it back together again and give it a face-lift!
I can’t decide between the white ironstone covered dish (I collect white ironstone and use it frequently) or the hemp sheet which is simply delicious.
Hi!
I cant seem to find the post where you announced the winner?
OH MY GOSH!!!! I would love to win this.
I would have to say winning the milk paint would be the best. I’ve only started using your milk paint & I’m loving it. I would love to see all the colors in person & use them on my projects.
Fingers crossed!!! ?
This would be amazing to win (I never win anything but it’s worth a shot!). I’m somewhat new to this paint, so I would love to get more. But I also really love the covered ironstone dish. Fingers crossed!!
Just checking back in to see if you announced a winner. 🙂
