There is another reason why blogging has made my life happier....YOU!!! My dear blogging friends, you have provided me with laughter, entertainment, a plethora of recipes and decorating ideas and the most beautiful words of encouragement during these last few months.
So, to celebrate a new season and to thank you for following my blog (wow, nearly 200 followers!) I would like to have a little give away.
I have 2 little packages to send to 2 friends from anywhere around the world.
The 1st package contains
A pretty pink and purple beaded tassel
A Handkerchief
And a Brisbane spoon
The 2nd package contains
A lavender drawer sachet
A gift tag
And another Brisbane spoon.
Please don't worry about posting anything about this on your blogs (but if you want to then cheers!)
All I ask is:
1. That you are follower (you are so very welcome to become one!) and
2. I would love it if you could please leave a comment on this post.
I will randomly choose 2 followers on March 11, my sister Holly's birthday!

Count me in, Natasha. You know I love a freebie!! Cheers Anita
ReplyDeleteHi Natasha, I have so enjoyed your blog. I, too, used to teach school and made the decision to stay at home with my children. Now they are almost all "out of the nest" and I haven't regretted my decision for one single minute. I would love to be included in your beautiful give away.
ReplyDeleteOh I'm sure Anita will win something because she's on a roll hahahaha! Well done you for one whole year of blogging. You have a well kept secret though - how do you do it all in FIVE minutes. You must explain it over a cocktail at Mooloolaba beach one day.

Well, Ange, I really do spend about 5 minutes posting my blog but I also spend about 3 hours on "research"!
ReplyDeleteNatasha:)
Haha, I was going to ask the same question as (the other) Ange. How do you do it in 5 minutes. Thanks for clearing that up Natasha:o)
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love not having to rush out the door to work every morning! I feel genuine sadness for those women that HAVE to work but would rather not.
Please enter me in your generous giveaway.

Love this giveaway and your blog.
ReplyDeleteNatasha, love your blog...I'm all about taking time out for yourself! Good for you! Love the kerchief...it made me think of the one my mum had given me on my wedding day and I tucked away inside my wedding dress only to find at the end of the night it had been lost! I felt horrible!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations with your 205 followers Natasha! I'm so happy to be one of them. Please count me in for your beautiful give away. Have a nice week, hug Antonia

Hi Natasha, Thank you for visiting my blog. It's so generous of you to have a give away! You have a very lovely blog...Marcia
ReplyDeleteI have only recently come across your blog and so enjoy reading it. You do so many special things with your kids (which I never seem to have enough time to do) and inspire me to get organised to find some time around to do baking and craft with my kids.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful give away as well.
So nice of you to visit my blog, I like your blog as well.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend,

Natasha what beautiful things you are giving away! I am a follower so I hope I win!
ReplyDeleteHi Susan,
ReplyDeleteYou have created such a beautiful place to escape to. I love it.
Your giveaway is so very lovely! I bought a kit at least 20 years ago to learn how to make tassels, it is still in drawer waiting for me. Your tassel is beautiful as is all the other wonderful things you are sharing. Lavender is right next to chocolate on my list of things I love. P.S. Thank you for visiting my blog and being a new freind. Joanie
Oh my goodness Natasha, I think I addressed you as Susan, I am so goofy in the morning. I just got so excited over your give-away I forgot what I was doing. We all know that there are not many things we like to hear more than our own names. Please forgive
ReplyDeleteJoanie
How wonderful! I love your blog and someday I plan to have my own. I am a follower, so I would definitely appreciate being entered in your giveaway! Either one of these prizes would be fantastic to win. Thanks and keep up the great work on your blog!
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog and I love it. I collect spoons and would love to add your to my collection. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteCount me in friend!

ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Jo
Please include me in your giveaway. Not sure what a Brisbane spoon is either but all of it looks so neat. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed weekend.
Hi Jo and Julie! Thanks so much for joining in with my "thank you" give away. I just wanted to fill you in the spoons- I collect spoons so since I live in Brisbane,I thought it might be nice to give away a couple of spoons from my home town.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes and good luck!
Natasha.
Such a great idea, those lovely spoons from your home town. I collect spoons too, for they are cute, little and always nice and easy to show somewhere. (I chose a beautiful little glass to store them in.)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, enjoy Autumn time, and it's pretty pretty colors....
Have a marvelous week ahead, dearest Natascha! xo
Hi Natasha
ReplyDeleteThanks for your very kind words on my post today. Your right, I think the UK is finally agreeing with me! Now, something has changed here, new header, background? Whatever it is , it looks great! Loved reading about Miss M's muffins...they look yummy. I still call it Home Economics as well. It is a hard one to change. Sounds like you are enjoying your new found freedom. Great to read what you are up too!
All the best
Jeanne :)
