Spring - Ready or Not, Here I Come! Giveaway Winner Announced!

We woke up this morning to -21 degrees wind chill, just a tad cold here!
I'm preparing for spring and thought I'd show you what would greet you if you came to our home...


I love terrariums and use them year round.


On the bottom shelf is a vintage picnic basket that I got at a junk sale.
The watering can came from eBay..many years ago.


I love handpainted watering cans, don't you?


Here's a close up of the terrarium, the garden tools and another watering can also came from eBay...


I've had these things for many years now...


Another glimspe inside...

I've also added a flameless candle inside that comes on at night...


I just wish that spring would get here...


because I am ready!!!

Now, on to the winner of my drawing...

First I must thank everyone who entered, I love giveaways...

I am not patient enough to figure out the linky thingie so I cut up all the comments and


Lil from Thinking Out Loud is the winner!

Congrats!

Please send me an email with your mailing address and I'll get this packaged up and in the mail.
I'm linking to these parties.

    Beautiful spring time display. I love the terrarium. I have several too and usually do a bird and birdnest display in them. I love the delicate soft colors you have used in yours. ~~Sherry~~

    Very sweet prize.
    I must confess... in the tiny thumbnail in the linky party it looked like a razor and I fully expected you were preparing to rid yourself of your winter "coat" for spring capri pants and shorts. :0)

    Hope you warm up soon... if not, join us here in South Central Texas. it was about 80 today...

    I'm visiting from the "Night Owl Crafting" party.

    ok....

    i'm totally laughing right now, because i too, like sara thought it was a razor in the linky party.

    hysterical.

    after coming over, however your collection is just beautiful.

    thanks for linking up to the SPRING FLING!

    happy weekend.
