Birthday Wish #1

Forget everything on my birthday list before... THIS is what I REALLY want for my birthday! 

I first fell in love with Mandi's Blog when I saw this wall of mirrors...

and my first proclamation of stalkerishness forever etched on her wall on the world wide web... 

I fell more in love with her blog when I saw these stripes...

I fell in love with her bubbly personality after watching her on the Nate Show

and am so so so obsessed with her design style... we are design twins- fraternal not identical...she's the cooler one.

More Reasons to love her:

We're both Krylon fanatics (forget your expensive Rust-oleum, it's Krylon who makes my mirrors AMAZING!!! 

There isn't a picture on her blog I don't love...

She decorates like I want to but am limited...

Ugh so many more reasons!

Mandi is having the MOST AMAZING GIVEAWAY EVER!!! AND I MUST WIN!!!!! 

It's a pathetic mess. And i'm out of budget and out of ideas...  that's why I want Mandi to come. That and so we can go thrifting together and score amazing finds... 

It may not look as bad as you think, but for someone who loves decorating and seeing my house "perfect" this kills me. It's empty and bland... There's not a single bit of my personality in here. Mandi would be the perfect person to come over because I would trust her 100%!! 

Here's where YOU GUYS come in!!! AS SOON as voting polls open on MONDAY, APRIL 30th (in 2 weeks) I am going to be begging/persuading/pleading/etc for your votes!!! PLEASE HELP ME BRING MANDI FROM UTAH TO GEORGIA to help redo my living room! IT WOULD MAKE MY LIFE!  

So on April 30th when voting opens... I need y'all to help me! Please, I've never wanted anything else so badly!!!! I really really really want to win this!!! Thanks!!!!!!! 

Giveaway Winner!

First of all, I'm SO sorry in the delay... I haven't had internet all week! Thank God for smart phones or I'd be completely disconnected!

Second, I just wanted to let you guys know this funny story: when I used random.org- the website made my sister a winner...not once, but twice. HA! I didn't even know she entered and I automatically disqualified her... haha I told her to enter a Silhouette giveaway with luck like that!

Third, I am so so so sad I can't give everyone $50... maybe one day I'll be HUGE and Home Depot will want to give my readers gift cards! Until then, my student loans can only buy so much and I can only give one lucky follower the prize...

Congrats, Em! I'll be e-mailing you to get your info to send off the card. Hope you enjoy your $50!

Giveaway #2 Winner!

Kelley's tweet about the giveaway won her the package... haha no really! Her comment about tweeting was #5 and the lucky number for this giveaway.

Aw, don't be sad. Because guess what? I have another giveaway. Yep. I'm gonna make y'all sick of them. haha just kidding. It's smaller in value, but just as cute. I'll be showing you guys what it is soon (my computer and phone have both been in and out (and in and out again) at the Apple store, so it's been a rough blogging/picture week!)

Enjoy your weekend! And Kelley, send me your address :)

And the Winner is...

Congrats, Letty! (what a cute name!)

I'm so excited to ship out the package to you {once the weather permits me to!} If you haven't heard, I live in the South and we just got a "snow storm" hit! The whole state is pretty much shut down and the grocery stores are out of staples like milk and bread!

Also, for those of you who didn't win- don't worry, I have enough stuff to do this giveaway once a month, and just might!!! It's been a great purge- thank you for encouraging me!
