Ok on to today's AMAZING give away - and an amazing LADY!!!
Meet the sweetheart Sherry - from THRIFT MY HOUSE



This immensely talented lady can turn this little bit of left over jute



into these gorgeous flowers  



Her wreaths are spectacular - 

including her Garden Wreath -  ( which I LOVE ) 



She transforms shutters into amazing things as well!



Ok - but where I really go crazy is seeing her Christmas decorations !!!
Sherry lives on a Bird Farm ( sorry Sherry but all I can think of is the movie The Birds so I think a visit to your place would have to be indoors for me - I'd last outside probably all of 30 seconds )
BUT living on a bird farm means lots and lots of feathers - what do you do with molting feathers?
Well I'd probably run around screaming my fool head off and then go paint a dresser - but she makes these ( you're going to gasp - I just know it ) 





DID YOU GASP???  Aren't they gorgeous!!!  And I could go on for hours with her ornaments - but I have to get moving with this post!


Last week Mr. Postman knocked on my door and handed me this................



Filled with the most beautiful Paris Themed Christmas Tree ornaments - created just for this giveaway!!!

Talk about a presentation!!!

But I've been having so much fun with the number # 4 from the previous 2 giveaways that I'm leaving it in - so.............

I incorporated a bridge railing to represent the Seine on my Paris silhouette
again the paint is still wet - I only remember to run and add something else to it when I'm ready to hit " publish " lol




OK everyone - laissez les bon temps roulez !!!!

Good luck !!!
