Last month I received an email from Marty at A Stroll Thru Life asking me if I would consider doing a post for her amazing blog! What? Would I consider it? I was ecstatic! When I learned that it would be published on June 14th I was even more excited because this is the one year anniversary date of my own blog.
I’ve followed Marty’s blog for a long time now and I regulary link up to her Inspire Me Tuesday parties. She has a great gift of encouragement and always makes me smile with her kind words of affirmation.
I’d love it if you would head on over to see my post on Marty’s blog but also take some time to check out A Stroll Thru Life, link up to her weekly party, and follow her for great inspiration!
Also . . . in celebration of my one year blog-o-versary, I am doing a giveaway of one of my handmade burlap table runners. Yes . . . those are straight pins you see in the picture. It is being made this very day!
To enter to win please leave a comment saying you’d like your name thrown into the hat! To increase your chances of winning let me know if you are a follower by email, Facebook, Bloglovin’, Pinterest, etc. The more places you follow the more times your name will be entered. I’ll be drawing one name and announcing the lucky winner on Tuesday, June 25th (which happens to be my wedding anniversary)!
Blessings,
