Giveaway has Ended.
This is my 1000th post....and my 40th month of blogging. I think that's pretty amazing. It's great to have this online remembrance of days gone by. Goodness knows I'd have forgotten so much of this stuff if it wasn't "written down". I love sharing photos of my grandchildren most weeks. That's the reason I started this blog. But it sure has developed into so much more, and oh the friends I've made! I never expected that. There's a handful of ladies who have truly blessed my heart. Someday I sure hope to meet them face to face. The encouragement I receive from them and others truly blesses me. I love everything about my blogging experience and I want to celebrate all these posts that have made the experience so much fun.
So it's time for my......
I bought this wonderful metal box just for this giveaway The glass insert in the lid is so pretty and the compartments inside will hold lots of treasures.
Like all these goodies! I made a 5x7 collage, a tiny notebook, the altered bottle and a little bitty candle with a "glow". I'm also tucking in a couple small bars of really wonderful soap...mostly because it will make the package smell very good!
Looks like there might be room for a few more little goodies too! I'll have to see what other lovelies I can find to tuck inside.
So there you have it....a box full of treasures from me to you. Please leave a comment on this post if you'd like a chance to win. You don't have to be a follower, but I'd love it if you were. If you have a blog and you'd like a second chance to win, I'd love it if you mentioned my giveaway on your blog. Just leave me a second comment telling me you did. I'll going to step away from posting for a week but I'll be back to announce a winner on my "Cubbies" post next Friday.
Update: This giveaway is open to everyone...no matter where you live!
Thank you to all my blogging friends...your visits mean so much. And thank you to all my local friends and my family. I so appreciate it when you tell me you read my blog...it's nice to know you're interested in what's going on in my world.
I bet most of you probably just stop by to see my sweet grandbabies....I don't blame you a bit!

Congratulations, Marie! WOW, 1000 posts is a really amazing milestone. I would so love to win that pretty box filled with your beautiful creations but like Soraya I think it would get too expensive to send it overseas. I have put your giveaway button on my sidebar anyway though.
Have a wonderful weekend and a lot of fun with your next 1000 posts :-)!
Hugs to you,
Julia
I forgot: Congratulations on winning the lovely bag from Daphne Nicole!!! You must be excited and I'm very happy for you.
Hugs again,
Julia
Oh, Marie, I for one am so blessed to have met you. I love everyone of your posts. I think you were one of my early followers and getting to know you and your family has been such a joy. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't notice my 'faith' embroidery made by you as it sits on a shelf right at the top of the stairs. And scattered about the house are more sweetness like my beautiful postcard or a doily or candle.
Looking forward to your next 1000 posts!
Love, Lorraine
Wow! That's Wonderful! Congratulations! Hugs, Morena
Congrats! You said the giveaway is open to everyone and I think that is some cute stuff. Free shipping *wink wink*. Just kidding. <3
You my dear friend have been a huge blessing to me...I thank God for your friendship and am so glad I happened by this wonderful blog one day..I don't think it was very long after you first begun blogging....I am guessing we begun about the same time.
Love in Christ name,Shelley

Hi Marie! Looks like I stopped to visit at a great time because winning something from you would be a special treat!
