'Christmas To Come' Giveaway 2015 .. Now Closed!

Hello my dear friends,

I know that Christmas has just been only a few months ago but I am already thinking of the Christmas to come.  Why? ... Because I have decided that I am going to have a 'Christmas To Come' Giveaway this year again and I am so excited about this!


I get such a buzz out of gifting people with a little surprise for under their Christmas tree, something they have no idea what it was going to be ~ a true little Christmas surprise!

This year all you have to do is just leave comment on this post to enter your name and again please make sure I have an e-mail address to contact you with, should you be a winner. (I am not sure just yet how many there will be.) Don't forget, you can enter between now and July when the winner will be drawn sometime that month. My gift won't be mailed out until early December of 2015, so there is a long time in between the steps of this giveaway again but I think that makes it so much more fun to do.

Now I better 'get my skates on' and start thinking of what my gift for this year's 'Christmas To Come' will be.

The winner of this giveaway will be announced on July 21st some time during the day.

I hope you are well my dear friends and life is treating you kind.

Have a peaceful and creative day.

    Karen you are so kind with all your give-aways. The one that I loved - the tute for the paper feather - was one that I made several of, and gave away to my friends was a big hit. Many thanks. Can't wait to see what you come up with for your Christmas 2015 one!

I'm hoping I can keep that spirit with me all throughout the year! Thank you!! Have an especially blessed day...

    What a wonderful idea! Christmas the past 3 years has been thrown together and I didn't decorate at all due to surgeries, parents ill health, and a family death. This year I plan to make up for it and your post has lit the fire that had gone out. I want to start creating gifts and decorations now so that come December I can relax and just enjoy. Thanks for the kick in the rear that was sorely needed.

    Dear Karen,
    I am so thankful that I found one of your pins late one night while looking for inspiration. I am recovering from a back injury, hip surgery and lymes so your pins take me to my happy world of creativity that sometimes is hard to get to. I totally love your style and I also share your love for old things. I think I'm an old soul in the wrong era! I signed up for your blog. I hope what I did was right because I have had to retype this comment 3 times. I would love to win your gift, but if I don't I already won when I found your pins on Pintrest, because you inspire me!
    Thanks again....
    Creatively yours,
    Sherry
