A Treasure of a Giveaway!

Good Tuesday morning my friends!

I gotta admit, after painting my kitchen, dining area, and family room this weekend, I’m kinda spent.

We changed the color from yellow gold, “my family room’s so bright I gotta wear shades”, to a beautiful Waverly color called “Flax.” Yeah, yeah, it’s “off white”, but it’s a beautiful and sophisticated “off white.” You understand, right?

Well, then, could you call my hubby and explain it to HIM?

‘Cuz he doesn’t understand.

So… instead of wowing you with a Trash to Treasure project today, I decided to BUY your love and GIVE YOU SOMETHING!

Thanksgiving 09 026When I discovered this GREAT book from Better Homes and Gardens on sale, I bought two, one for me and one for you!

Inside are piles of ideas, recipes and projects to get your creative juices flowing! AND, many of them can be adapted for Trash to Treasure projects with found items, stuff you’ve already got, or someone else’s trash!

How to win?

It’s easy, just leave a comment for one entry.

Tweet about this giveaway for another entry (just be sure to leave a second comment so I know you tweeted!)

Blog about this giveaway for a third entry! (again leave another comment)

I’ll close the entries and pick a winner on Friday and ship the book on Saturday morning, so you’ll have it in time for Christmas projects!

Now, link up YOUR projects!

  5. Hi Kimm,
    I'm always up for a fun give-away! Don't know if I'm ready for the pressure of a "make-it-all-yourself" Christmas idea book,though!! But that said, I am getting into the spirit and am trying to let down some of my "perfection expectations" so that I can actually enjoy the holidays this year! And an easy project is always fun to do with the fam.
    Thanks for hosting Trash to Treasure day!
    Have a great week.
