To celebrate gaining over 50 followers in just over a month - WOW!!!!- A BIG THANK YOU to all of you - and to introduce you all to my new little venture - I thought I would hold my first ever giveaway!!I have been desperately trying to come up with ideas that will link to the name and theme of my new business and being as I am not at all crafty (maybe one day I will learn!!!) it has been really hard to put a selection together.
Everything in the giveaway relates in some way to either the name or the theme of my little venture. Sorry I am being just a teeny weeny little secretive but I like to keep people guessing when it comes to a new business (although some of you may already know a little more than others!!!)
To make this fun I will put your name into a hat if:
1. You already follow my blog or you become a new follower; and
2. If you make a comment on this post; and
3. If you post a link of this giveaway within your blog posts or your sidebar - please let me know you have done this by leaving a comment here; and
4.Now to the fun bit!! - if you leave a comment with a guess at the new name - you never know I may even change it for one of your ideas!!!
So all in all you could have four chances to win all of this:
1. A CK Button Tin.
2. Lots and lots of vintage buttons - handpicked at various antiques fairs by me!!
3. 2 Foley Cups and Saucers - really pretty and dinky - perfect for espresso!!
4. A CK Hankie.
5. CK Tissues.
6. 3 sheets of CK Stickers.
7. A gorgeous piece of vintage rose print fabric.
The Giveaway will be left open until Midnight on Saturday 28th August 2010. I know this may seem such a long wait but I have decided to leave it open until then to allow people on holiday over the summer a chance to enter.
Good Luck and Bye for Now!!!!
Kerry xxxx

Hello Kerry walking on the web I found your blog, I also love the vintage ... why do you fan me with great pleasure!

I think the name of the company will "Buttons Roses" or "Buttons & Roses" .. it seems a perfect name!
Well I hope to pass by here often to enjoy all your new purchases and work. A big salute of Argentina who lives in Milan.
Sorry for my English .. use a google translator. I advise you to put one in your sidebar so that you may know many more people! ♥♥Anapetit♥♥
Hola Kerry paseando por la web encontre tu blog, yo tambien amo el vintage...por eso me hago tu seguidora con muchisimo placer!!
Me anoto a tu sorteo y lo llevo a mi blog a la barra lateral
Me parece que el nombre de la empresa sera "Botones Rosas" o "Botones & Rosas"...me parece un nombre ideal!!!
Bueno espero pasar seguido por aca para poder disfrutar de todas tus nuevas compras y trabajos. Un saludo grande de una argentina que vive en Milano.
Perdon por mi ingles..use un traductor de google. Te aconsejo que pongas uno en tu barra lateral para que te puedan conocer muchisimas mas personas!! ♥♥Anapetit♥♥
