MY BIRTHDAY GIVEAWAY!
May 20, 2010 at 7:00 am Emerald 14 comments
Here is a little arrangement of things that just happened to be sitting together on my kitchen counter: some pink lilies we rescued from a trash can on our street, a rose-scented Virgin of Guadalupe candle from the supermarket, some pesos, and a neat shell I found a few days ago.
By the way, today is my birthday. In honor of my birthday, I will send one of YOU a gift when I’m back home in the States and postage is both more reliable and affordable. All you have to do is leave a comment wishing me happy birthday. The winner will be chosen at random, and the prize will be a box of cool beachy, Mexican-y stuff I’ve bought, found and/or collected while I’m here.
Good luck, thanks for playing along!

Thanks Chelsea!

Sunny, I have found so much stuff that would be just perfect in your beachy “Florida Room”. Thinking of copying your idea and having a Caribbean room when I move next.
