Vintage on line

I fully intended to announce a giveaway last week to celebrate the kindness and support of all my wonderful blogging friends, but then, as often is the case, life happened. My mom came for a visit and I am not sorry to report that I was too busy spending time with her, antiquing, cooking and eating to pay much attention to blogging. Mom left yesterday and life is getting back to normal (although I will be working especially hard on the treadmill this week). I look forward to catching up with all of you in the next couple of days.

In the meantime, I am happy to offer this gift of appreciation to one of you that leaves a comment on this post by Friday Sept 21st at 6pm Eastern time. Your box of cottage goodness will include, but is not limited to the items shown in the foreground of this photo, as I intend to continue adding to the package as inspiration strikes. These things really represent The Cottage Nest and my love for cooking, entertaining, decorating, crafting and being a smidge sassy. I hope you will enjoy having a little bit of my cottage in yours.
