A Friday giveaway is my fave

May 29, 2009

It’s been a while since I’ve done a good old giveaway. It’s not that I haven’t wanted to, honestly if I had loads of money I would make giving presents my full time job. Anywho, Abby sent me two perfectly pretty flower shop prints when I only ordered one! I guess she’s just awesome like that. If you want to win this little beauty leave a comment telling me why you read this blog (a little market research). Leave it before Monday morning or sorry Charlie, no chance of winning for you.

    We’re friends. It’s a pity read. Just kidding. I like how you dream about stuff that I like to dream about too but I don’t make the time to dream about. It’s a convenience thing really.

  • On May 29, 2009 , Magchunk said:

    I read because this is the best little smorgasborg of everything lovely in blogland. You always find the prettiest parties, dresses, cards, and rooms.

    And you have a cool bike.

  • On May 29, 2009 , Martina said:

    I read you (and other blogs about beautiful things) to keep my life beautiful and keep myself inspired amidst the daily grind!

  • On May 29, 2009 , erinwalker said:

    Your faves are usually my faves too!

  • On May 29, 2009 , Carissa said:

    what a beautiful print!

    why do I read your blog, you ask? well, the short answer: it makes me happy. It is one of the first blogs I started reading, before I even had my own. to be honest, it was your blog name and header that first caught my eye (and I still love it) but then I saw the content was just a great too. I love seeing all the amazing things you find, all the inspiring photos, whether it be an art print, cool home decorating ideas or the recipe for a decadent PB & chocolate cake!

    to sum up, your blog is eternally upbeat and I think we need more of that in the world!

  • On May 29, 2009 , Teresa said:

    i read this blog because somehow the things that are your fave, are often my fave as well.

  • On May 29, 2009 , Karen said:

    Are you just digging for compliments in the name of ‘market research’?!!!

    At this point, reading is a daily ritual b/c it’s one of the rare places to see sundresses, cookies AND Liz Lemmon refrences all in one place! :)

  • On May 29, 2009 , magpiesandmagnolias said:

    I read this blog because it is one of my faves! I love the inspiration and the motivation to actual post on my blog. There are so many pretty things here that inspire me!

  • On May 29, 2009 , Mary F said:

    I read (i.e. love) your blog because it’s a lovely mix of eclectic and charming daily inspiration!

    Your faves are always spot on!

  • On May 29, 2009 , Amanda said:

    I read your blog because finally, after 27 years of living in a small, oppressive, cookie-cutter town I took a big leap and moved on my own to a big city away from all of my friends and family.

    And I love it.

    Not that I don’t miss my friends and family, but being independent is wonderful for me. And to know that I can decorate my apartment, office, and well, my LIFE the way that I want to is lovely, too.

    I love your blog because every time I read it I think – YES! I can DO that! I really can! My whole future is wide open, and there are opportunities for a million things to become my “fave.”

    Thanks. :-)

  • On May 29, 2009 , Audrey said:

    i don’t know how i found your blog, but it always has something that i love posted on it with plenty of links to find more of what i love.

  • On May 29, 2009 , neilnjes said:

    I don’t remember how I found your blog, but it’s on my daily reads because it’s so simple and to the point. You don’t speak what doesn’t need to be said and you always say just the right things to describe something to make it all the more beautiful. You fill in the spaces better than anyone.

  • On May 29, 2009 , Claire said:

    I read your blog to gather ideas for my future house, garden, and life…right now I’m a grad student, so it’s apartment living for me and time for recreation is rare, but I hope that some day that will change. The way you pull together beautiful/inspiring things is lovely.

  • On May 29, 2009 , jasmine said:

    i read your blog because i really like you. i especially love your personal posts, but even when you’re not writing about yourself, your funny, quirky, AWESOME personality comes out.

    plus, you have EXCELLENT taste. you’re always showing me things that i WANT to see.

    and you’re cute.

    haha!

  • On May 29, 2009 , Breakfast for Dinner said:

    I love reading your blog because it’s kinda like sharing cool, cute stuff with a friend. A friend I’ve never ever met, but a friend nonetheless.

  • On May 29, 2009 , Gabby said:

    I read your blog because it is all about the gorgeous things in life. It makes me happy and I love your finds!

  • On May 29, 2009 , she said:

    well i’m a very new reader (just subscribed yesterday!) but i found your blog in a list of many others and chose to subscribe for a few reasons: it’s simple, clean, and not too frilly. there aren’t too many words. it’s just about the beauty and the finds and that’s it :)

  • On May 29, 2009 , Aimee said:

    I forget just exactly how I came to your blog (probably a link from another one), but it was recent! I come because I’m in the market to buy a house and one of the best things about buying a house is making it beautiful and a happy place to live. So I come here for inspiration.

  • On May 29, 2009 , Chris and Valerie said:

    I read your blog because: I like Natalia, and I work in a big law firm with not so colorful/unfriendly people, and your blog is a bright spot in the day.

  • On May 29, 2009 , Vanessa said:

    Hi Melanie!
    I read your blog everyday because it is a great source of inspiration. You are always one step ahead of me with great internet finds. Oh, and I bought the “You are my favourite” print from gemmabear because I fell in love with it right here on your blog.
    Thanks!

  • On May 30, 2009 , A.Mountain.Bride said:

    At first, your rad banner hooked me in…and I’ve come to find inspiration in the happy bright and cheerful finds you post.

    A lovely break from the mundane!

  • On May 30, 2009 , TheBeautyFile said:

    I don't even know how I found your blog, but it's so delightful, simple & fun to read, I find myself missing it if I forget to stop by! Like that quaint old bookshop on the cobblestone street…charming & fun!

  • On May 30, 2009 , Bridget said:

    You have lots of fun pretty pictures and give me a little escape from my science-y world :)

  • On May 30, 2009 , Kate said:

    I read this blog because it is SO positive and there is a lack of that nowadays let’s just face it :)
    Also, everything that is your fave, is also my fave. So your blog is my fave.
    Thanks for doing what you do!

    So so pretty! Makes me want to go flower shopping!

    Why do I read your blog? Because your sunny personality shines through in every post, and it always makes me smile to come visit you!

  • On May 30, 2009 , mina said:

    what a lovely print! i adore your blog for all the new things you introduce me to, because you inspired me to make my own ‘scrapbook’of things i like online, and because it’s better to browse your site than work!

  • On May 30, 2009 , The Pumpernickel said:

    To see pretty things! They make me happy inside :)

  • On May 30, 2009 , Lauren said:

    I just stumbled upon your blog and i enjoyed reading it. Mainly because you are caring and highlight others. To me that’s very unselfish and giving!
    The pictures are delightful and bring a smile upon your face.
    Thanks for sharing and i will be following your blog.

    {{Hugs}}

  • On May 31, 2009 , Karen said:

    I read your blog because it’s nice and short and fun to read. Unlike some blogs like “I love my husband he is so awesome blah blah blah blah” or “my kid is so great he did this…” those just get boring sometimes.

  • On May 31, 2009 , Jill Turner said:

    I read your blog to make my day happier!

    And pretty prints!!!

  • On May 31, 2009 , Amy said:

    Hi, I just stumbled on your blog today and was instantly captivated by the gorgeous flowers! Especially the snaps. I just started working at a garden center a few weeks ago and seem to be a tad obsessed with anything floral as of late.

    Anyways, all the other pictures are equally lovely and I will continue to follow your blog. Thanks for the inspiration!
