Soft Surroundings Giveaway

A quick announcement before we get to the giveaway.  I was planning to meet some lovely ladies tomorrow at the Raleigh Flea Market, but unfortunately, I have to cancel.  I am so BUMMED!!!  My oldest son is now sick and we feel it’s best to get him home where he can rest and recover.  I travel to Raleigh frequently, though, so we’ll plan a shopping excursion for next time!

I introduced Soft Surroundings to you a few weeks ago and hinted at a giveaway and now it’s time!

Soft Surroundings is offering up a $100 gift card to their store to one lucky reader.  If you’re not familiar with them, they carry a wide variety of beautiful things including home furnishings, decor, clothing, accessories and cosmetics.  My favorite things are those inspired by Robin’s trips to France, like the Petite Salon Chair (above) I have in my home office.

Are you interested in having $100 to spend at Soft Surroundings?  Here’s how to enter…

Visit the Soft Surroundings site and browse around.  Come back HERE and leave a comment on this post letting me know what you would like to buy if you win.

For additional chances to win (but not required) you can…

1.)  follow Soft Surroundings on Instagram and leave another comment letting me know you have

OR

2.) like Soft Surroundings on Facebook and leave one last comment letting me know you have

This giveaway is only open to readers over the age of 18 and those living in the US.  It will close Sunday, December 1, 2013 at midnight PST.  A winner will be randomly chosen and announced the following week.

Good luck!

Disclosure: This is a paid feature giveaway post.  All opinions are my own.
