Wow.  You really poured your hearts out in the comments of the two giveaways we offered last week.  Some incredible stories about the people who have given us so much in life and the handmade items in our lives.  Enough mushy stuff, though.  Let’s get down to what I know you really want to hear.  Namely: who won?

First up for grabs were two love letters right from my own shop, Gadanke.

These little letters of thanks are ready to write if your name is… Michelle or Tara.  More specifically, that’s the Michelle who was born 12 weeks early and lives to tell her beautiful story and Tara who has been humbled by two elderly sisters near where she grew up.  Ladies, send me an email and be ready to pick the Italian patterned paper of your choice!

Next up, Lisa offered some handmade, repurposed dividers in this interview.  (She has another set in her Etsy shop if you’re aching for some.)

Congratulations to our winner, Vicki K.  She’s lovin’ a handmade journal that the maker said came from a pair of leather pants in an Athens, Georgia thrift shop!  Vicki, you can guess the drill – please send me an email!

Thanks to everyone for participating.  Now back to our regularly scheduled, decluttering fun…
