Custom sign giveaway...celebrating!!

As if my absence from posting wasn't indication enough...
I've been one busy bee!
So busy that I let a couple of milestones pass without celebrating.

This month Castle & Cottage on etsy aquired it's 500th favorite follower and then...
on May 5th I posted my 100th post!!!

So let's just celebrate them now shall we?
hmmm....with what?


how about a custom sign giveaway?!!

That's what this calls for...a custom sign to the winner with a $50.00 value!

The winner can browse around my etsy shop, website and flicker gallery for inspiration of what they'd like their sign to look like & to say ...or choose one that's already there...

whatever your little heart desires!

(I do have to limit it to the US & Canada for shipping purposes)

Entering is simple...just leave a comment on this post.

(oohh...I'd love to know what your sign might say!)

If you'd like to add a link to it on your blog, come back and let me know in a second comment

for a second chance!

I'll draw a winner from random.org on Tuesday, June 1st.

(Be sure I have a way to contact you...either through your blog or by leaving me contact email.)

Thanks for stopping by & good luck to all!!

on my way to the garden, I get to pass this breathtaking display of beauty...

I can never resist taking photos of it!

A very busy weekend in store...a Confimation, a first Communion and tonight....
