At last...The next post on my upstairs renovation.
And
My very First Give-away!
I decided to do this give-away for 3 big reasons:
The most important reason is simply to Thank you all for stopping by and blessing my day with your sweet and encouraging comments!
Next...I have been working on refilling my tiny Etsy store with treasures and kick it off by giving some of them away!
And finally...I love presents! And thought that you might too!
So here it is:
From my new collection of goodies in my Etsy store:
An appliqued and embroidered canvas tote bag.
A Handmade 12x 16 boudoir pillow made from white quilted cotton. It has an envelope back and antique lace edging. Embroidered with ""Bonne Nuit" and filled with a down filled insert.
A heart sachet made from the old lace gown and filled with french lavender.
A handpainted lace votive holder,
heather and hycinth votive... all tied up in a lace hankerchief!

A handcrafted notebook to track your journey thru life... or in search of bliss.
with a brown polka-dot writing pen.
And a $10 starbucks gift card in a handmade sleeve.
This is my favorite size!
It can be put on your key ring... and always have it with you!
That's it!
A lovely tote filled with wonderments for your journey in search of Bliss.
I only have a few favors in order to qualify for this give-away....
If you are already a follower of this blog...you simply need to leave me a comment to let me know you have stopped by.
If you blog about my little give-away...I will give you another entry!
Become a new follower and leave a comment.
Basically...be a follower and leave a comment! That's all you need to do!
Ta Da!
That's it!
I will draw a winner this Friday, March 26th!

Now....
The 3rd post on my finished upstairs.
I was going to show you the little hallway as well, but I think I will save it for another post.
Last Spring, When we first completed this little room, I did a post on it.
At the time, I didn't show you the room with the bed down.
So...
Here it is:
Mr. Bill constructed the bed in such a way that it only takes about 5 minutes to go from this:

To this:
Tucked just below this little window seat are two old dresser drawers that we added casters to.
The drawers hold all the bedding and such.
This is the smallest room in our home, When the kids aren't here...It is a wonderful place to sit and read.
When they are here...This is the room that they all want...go figure.
This is "Bessie" and we refer to this little room as Bessie's Room.
(To see more pictures of this tiny space go back in my older posts.)
OH.....I Almost forgot!
Here are the photos of my finished window shade.
You know...the one I made from my old gown.
I love it! I hope you do too!
Check back on Friday to see who won the Give-Away!
God bless~donna
