  64. Dear Paula,

    I just bought my very first house and am creating a garden filled with lavender. I'm combining Iceberg roses with the lavender and have named my little place Lavender Cottage. I've been looking for a lovely rustic sign to finish things off and was getting pretty despondent until I stumbled upon yours. It's perfect. If I don't win, where might I buy one or is it one of a kind?It's inspiring.
