Hello, everyone! I am so glad you stopped by today, because I have got a very fun giveaway in store!
With the holidays upon us, I always like to take this time of year as an opportunity to reflect on the year and all I’m thankful for. Did you know that when I make that list, all of you–my lovely readers–appear on that list?

These items are some of my creative go-to’s, and you have seen many of them in projects I’ve shared in the past here at PS!
Butterfly pins, because accessorizing is always fun, even when it comes to sewing.
One of my portable first-aid kits, because function can be pretty, too! And those yummy Ferrro Rochers peering out from behind there can remedy many ailments, too. 😉
Some pretty baubles from Styled by Tori Spelling to add glamour to your holiday wardrobe…
A stencil, paint, brushes and bottle tips from the Martha Stewart line from Plaid…
Nothing says Christmas like glitter paints in festive red and green!
A set of faux bois thank you notes, to go along with my current love of all things wood grain…
…and a ONE-YEAR subscription to one of my go-to sources for creative inspiration, Do It Yourself magazine!
 This giveaway will be conducted via Rafflecopter. Please note that the widget might take a moment to appear below, and if you are enjoying this post in a reader or via email subscription, you will need to visit the blog in order to get entered.

My very biggest wish is that all our boys would be home for the holidays this year. But, next would be a new stove. I hate the one I have because the darned thing won’t hold the temperature and it’s totally frustrating for someone who loves to bake to deal with things coming out of my oven looking like a teenager was baking her first batch of cookies – either they aren’t done or they’re burnt. Grrr.

The top of my Christmas list is a laptop lap desk. I love to work on my laptop (blogging, pinterest, work, etc.) while I am comfy on the couch.
