This year's giveaway will be my sixth one and for all of you that are first timers to this, this is what happens and why.
Let me start with the why I do this first ...
I love Christmas and I treasure the memories of Christmas when I was a little girl.
I would wake up early and run to the Christmas tree on Christmas morning all excited to unwrap my presents. Oh, the joy of finding out what was hiding under that pretty wrapping paper! That is why I do this giveaway. I love to give someone that same feeling, even just only for a short moment, of being a child again on Christmas Day.
And now for the what you have to do if you wish to take part ...

Hi Karen,
ReplyDeletePlease enter my name in your Christmas giveaway.
Wow! The years have flown by. Always love to see you wins and the lovely gift you send- you are a dear. I am Nancy Marino. Please add me to your Christmas give-a-way. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be entered for a chance to win your give away. I love decorating for Christmas! I start the 1st of December (last year Thanksgiving eve) and it stays until January.
ReplyDeletePick me! Pick me! LOL
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I enjoy the suspense and the unveiling, no matter who wins.
What a lovely idea Karen. I remember as a child not being able to sleep on Christmas Eve and then being awake before day break. It was so exciting. The excitement fades as we age but I still love it. Thanks for the opportunity (I am in Australia so I may not be eligible and I understand if that is so). Kind thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI am a newish follower so it will be exciting to see what the giveaway entails. I love all of your projects!
ReplyDeleteI love everything you make
ReplyDeleteYour creations are lovely and inspire me to get creative too. Thanks for having this giveaway.

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful opportunity! Your creations and blog are always fun to look forward to. I love your creativity and the willingness to share.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a child we celebrated Christmas with just our immediate family as our extended family lived at a distance from us. This made Christmas a very personal and cherished memory for me. There was no waiting for late sleepers to wake before opening gifts. The first awake, woke everyone else up and Christmas Day began. I miss those days.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance to win Karen. This has been the roughest year in my life. My dear husband of 38 years died in January. He had been sick but we were not expecting anything like that. I still feel as though I am in shock some times. I really don't know how I will get through Christmas this year. I have my sweet grandchildren. One has been added since he died. She is a joy to this Grandmama. Thank you again. I love to look at all the things you come up with.
ReplyDeleteHi Karen! So excited to be in your Christmas Giveaway. You are such a sweetheart to do this lovely thing.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Alyce
We've been experiencing near record heat the past few days so thinking about Christmas is a refreshing change. I am inspired by all you create.

I love everything Christmas,from the crafting and the decorating to the giving and celebrating on the day. And your parcel under the tree would be a Christmas memory in the making. Thank you for your blog and generous spirit.
