shore giveaway.

i can't even begin to express my thanks, adoration, smitten-ness (not a word, i know), elation, etc. over meeting so many wonderful people through this blog. you've all been so sweet & supportive as i learned the ups, downs, & twists of blogging. you put up with me for some not-so-good posts, some good ones, & some rants. you're all saints, in my book.

you've also sent me more delicious ideas, items & fun-ness (another non-word) than i ever could have imagined. talk about inspiring!

so how to thank you all, properly? if it were up to me, i'd send you all something... but based on my budget, it might be one of these vintage erasers (love!) that doesn't seem right, it's not enough. back to the drawing board.

i've got it! hell-ooo! it's summer! people are entertaining! they need ice! wait. shipping bags of ice might get messy...so how 'bout an ice bucket! so i'm giving away one of these gorgeous ice buckets from dabney lee at home! a splash of color, an entertaining essential, & a chic summer staple for years to come.

here's how you can win:

* be a follower! every follower gets one entry.
* commenting on this post gets you one entry.
* post about it on your blog, twitter feed, etc. to get one entry. (don't forget to shoot me an email/comment to let me know you've posted/tweeted, etc.!)

so that's three easy entries that can get you thismuch closer to cool summer bliss.

all entries must be submitted by july 17th, the winner will be announced on july 20th & then the real fun begins - we'll design your ice bucket together (well, with dabney lee's help, of course!) you'll choose your monogram, your background, etc. & i'll ship it off to you! fabulous, right?

so go ahead - start entering, start picking out your favorite patterns & monograms, & start planning the super-chic summer soiree that you're going to invite me to (hint, hint!)

xoxo,
