"The Fourth Annual "One World~One Heart Giveaway" is here! This event starts today, Monday, January 25 and ends February 15, 2010. I'd like to share just a few photos of my family and art. The precious baby is granddaughter Lauren as a newborn, and my grandson, Ethan, who holds a special place in my heart. The two sweet girls at the end of my slideshow are my nieces, Valentina and Claudia. Family is my most precious treasure.

Hopefully, you will meet new friends in the next few weeks...AND you might even win an amazing gift! There are countless numbers of generous people sharing their artistic blogs, and hundreds of wonderful items to be given away!


I participated last year, and it is just the best inspirational experience. I truly enjoyed riding the magic carpet all over the globe. You will, without a doubt, come across some of the best artistic blogs that you might never have happened to come across otherwise.

To learn more, and to see a list of the participating blogs with their links, just click here. You may even want to do a giveaway on your own blog too! Whether you want to do a giveaway or just enter to win as you pop from blog to blog entering drawings, the process of jumping on the caravan is rather addictive and just plain fun!

To enter my drawing you must be an active blogger. All you need to do is leave a comment on this post. Please be sure to include your email address. The drawing will be February 15th at Noon and winners are selected through the random generator. I will contact you via e-mail and post the winner on my blog. If you want to know even more about this event, click here.

Coffee or Tea Cup Cozy
(Second Giveaway)


It is completely washable made with Plymouth Yarn, the "Encore Colors." It is 75% acrylic and 25% wool. Now, all you have to do is add a comment with your email address to this post.

I don't know how to knit but I sure would like to. Someday, maybe. It's just that holding two needles seems quite difficult and so it's admirable how you and others who knit do it. Or maybe I'm used to using only one :-) Yup just crochet.

Nancy, hmmm knitting. I don't know how but admire those who do. Now, I know that living in Arizona doesn't conjure up the need for warm, snuggly woolies but, I lived in Northern MN for 15 winters and I am still thawing out! I cannot abide being cold. This winter has been cold and wet for us and I don't have nearly enough warm stuff for bundling up! Thank you for such a heart-warming gift. Tina
