Day 18 - Time is ticking by

Today is one of those days that I watch the clock. Lots to do & not enough time...I love this clock. It came from Skip shopper's grandparent's house & sat on their mantel above the wood stove in the kitchen. It is a wind up & ticks really loudly. It has a wind up alarm too that I set for just before the boys fly in the door from school so I can remember to breath before they do. Tick tock.

Yes, it's giveaway time...I have been blogging 100 blogs today on this blog - Wow! Well, probably more, because some I have started, and then forgotten about and then deleted, but, ANYWAY, that is beside the point, but getting back to the point, I am giving stuff away and as they always say, you have to be in it to win it.


I am going to follow Little Diva's lead because she is having a fantastic giveaway as well, & I love her idea and, so if you want to enter in this surprise stash giveaway, all you have to do is to follow my blog, follow me on Twitter, or become a fan of my Facebook page. You'll get one entry for each so make sure you leave a separate comment for each and if you already follow me, that's great, still leave a comment for each one putting your twitter & facebook names in the comments. So you could get 3 entries! Yippee!


You have until next Tuesday 18 August 8pm to make a comment when I will draw the winner.


Without giving too much away the giveaway will be full of special treats from my stash and drawers, some things that I have collected (lovely old trims, fabric, book....), and a couple of things that I have made. I hope that you will enjoy.


A photo a day in august - day three


This is part of our collection of tins that we inherited from Skipshopper's grandparents. I really love tins to hide things in...like threads, scissors, buttons, knick knacks... and all sorts of other things! I especially love tins that already have stories to tell. I am sure that these tins could tell a great many stories.
