100th Post Giveaway!


How is it possible that I've reached my 100th post already? And where will I ever find my next 100?! Anyway, I'm so glad to have met you all -- I love reading all your comments, and visiting your blogs and sharing your lives!


So here's the deal: Leave a comment on this post, and we'll have a little drawing. I realize this is a crazy time of year, so I think maybe I won't draw a name till December 29th. That'll give you a few days to stop by and leave a comment on this post.


The prize is pictured above: a small red transferware Christmas plate, and some red berries in a silver cup.



Good luck, and have a wonderful Christmas!
Please note: If you are leaving a comment anonymously and wish to be included in the drawing, please be sure to leave your first name and last initial so I may include you. Thanks!

  1. I collect transferware, so you know how I love the plate!
    Your home is the first one I visit each morning because you and I seem to appreciate the same things.
    Thanks for sharing!

  3. Mary,
    "Count Me In", please. I believe that was a song by Gary Lewis and the Playboys (a group that never went too far) and is now running mercilessly thru my head.

    Have a beautiful Christmas with those you love.

  11. Happy 100th post Mary! I can't wait to get there myself and have to think up some "wonderfulness" (as some other unnamed sweet ladies say) to do for that post. Have a great weekend. We're off to my sister's house for our family Christmas today (and to ANOTHER Wal Mart to find a 4 wheeler for grandson - every Wal Mart around here is sold out of it) Judy

  34. I first saw your "dear little red house" on RMS. I enjoy your blog the best. You give such inspiration, although you have caused me to go shopping a time or two! I'm the proud owner of Carolyne Roehm's Presentations and you can never have too much transferware.

    Merry Christmas from No. Central Texas!

  38. Well - I got carried away from my earlier post and had to go back to see the giveaway is "my" red transferware which would look just lovely with the red transferware I've started collecting (thanks to you dear Mary)! Also, the little silver cup looks like a mint julep cup (not that I've ever used a mint julep cup although I have "sat a spell on the veranda and had a little something cool to drink!)

  41. Oh My, what lovelies! This is my first visit to your blog as I'm awake very early and ventured here while blog-hopping! I do not own any transferware, but this would make a wonderful additional to my red and white kitchen. Merry Christmas to you and yours! Be sure to stop by for a visit; I'll be hosting my first blog-giveaway soon!

    ReplyDelete
  42. I love your blog; it's in my top-three rotating list of blogs I have to check every morning at 6:30 a.m. with my cup of coffee in hand. I'm a red/white transferware fan myself; in fact, I'm hitting a local high-end store at 7 am on the 26th to snatch up some Christmas Spode on deep discount!

  51. Mary: I hope that it isn't to late to enter for the drawing. I just discovered your blog via another blog, via another blog, etc..... I read the twelve things about you and was amazed how many we have in common. Just last night I finally put all the "stuff" away to make the house look peacefull and Christymasy! Now today I have to wrap so there it all goes again!!

    I collect plates, transferware and especially anything with pink in it so it would go to a great home - hanging in a place of honor.

    Have a blessed and Merry Christmas a Happy New Year filled with all you dream of.

  54. Congratulations on your successful blogging. I enjoy your site and am in the process of trying to figure out exactly how to set up my own site. A hundred posting is very dedicated. I have several pieces of transferware that I also enjoy and would like to start collecting the harder to find colors. Merry Christmas

    ReplyDelete
  55. I visit your site everyday, and just love the blogs that you leave. I have never entered a giveaway and not quite sure that I should. I myself do not have a blog, not sure I have much to blog about. But in any case I enjoy your site and would love to be included in your drawing. The plate is lovely, I myself would have a hard time parting with it.

    Merry Christmas,

  74. Hello Mary! I'd love to be included in your 100th post giveaway! Congratulations, by the way! I can't even get a first post done, so kudos to you on 100!

    I found my way here via the comments you left at Cathy's blog, Treasured Heirlooms. I decided that since I admire her decorating style, that I should check out yours! I can't wait to dig a little further and see what you've got here! The transferware plate and the silver cup with berries you're offering are both beautiful!

    I hope you and yours celebrated a warm, family Christmas together today, and that you go on to enjoy blessed New Year! Leslie
