Random Giveaway — Kitchen Goodies



As I mentioned yesterday, I'm heading to Austin for SXSW. In fact, I'm heading to the airport in about an hour. But I want to leave you something fun while I'm gone. And what's more fun than an awesome Giveaway? Get your comments in to win a fantastic prize package that will completely brighten up your kitchen. Because spring is coming and bright and fresh and clean is what I'm craving. Yay for Kitchen Goodies! Here's what you could win:


A Gorgeous Cake Stand and 4 Minis from Nora Fleming. retail value: $110.00
Not just any cake stand. This one is from Nora Fleming's brand new line called Pewter and Pearl. It's super pretty. And shiny. And pearly. The minis are too — the winner will receive the pearl-finish bluebird, tree, presents and pumpkin — and they'll look perfect on the pewter cake stand! I've featured the wares from Nora Fleming before, but this pewter and pearl line is my favorite. And for those of you who are new to Nora Fleming, the basic idea is this: one serving piece, with interchangeable "minis" that can reflect a holiday or event. Smart thinking.


A Lovely Apron (winner's choice!) from Indulge Aprons. (retail value up to $60)
Indulge is all about handmade quality. Kristin, the designer behind the shop, loves fresh ideas and likes to introduce new patterns all the time. She can even whip up a custom order exactly to your liking — in case you're one of those "it has to be an original" kind of girls. Definitely check out her shop — so many cute choices! Aprons for kids. Aprons for Moms. Which one will you pick? (And what a fun decision to make.) I like what Kristin says about aprons on her site: "There is just something about wearing a fun apron that brings a little something extra to the chores we face everyday. It really will bring out the domestic goddess in you." So true.


Festive Serving Pieces from Interior Style Home. (retail value $68.00)
Oh yummy color! These melamine lovelies make me smile every time I see them. It would almost be a shame to cover them with food. The winner will receive the Mosaic Platter. A Set of Geo or Floral Trivets — really cute and raised up on little rubber feet. Plus, my favorite: beautiful Floral Salad Servers — I'm thinking they're pretty enough that I'd be looking for excuses to make salad just so I could pull them out and use them. While you're checking out the fab serving pieces, have fun exploring the rest of the collection at Interior Style Home — lots of great items — don't miss the children's art.


Fun prizes, right? Just the kind of thing to bring a breath of fresh air into your home as the season changes. And won't it be lovely to have pretty new things to display after you've done your spring cleaning? Thank you to the wonderful sponsors! Have a great weekend! I'll be back on Monday.
