Win a shabby vintage nest!

I fell in love with these nests when I first saw
them this past week. I was in town and was
trying to remember if a shop that I stop at once
in awhile was having an open house. I decided to
stop by and sure enough they were.
Two of these beautys came home with me
and I will be giving one away to a lucky person.

I also stopped at a few garage sales over at the
lake on Saturday that is just a hop and a jump away
from us. I found a bag with several angel wings in it and I
just had to get them.

I also found this gate and the two white plaques off
to the left side of the photo. Score...all at one sale!

I have had comments on this gray and white planter so I thought I would tell you where I picked it up. Meijer...in the floral section where they have assorted pots. $4.99.

These beautiful nests aren't tiny little things. They measure approx. 7 inches across and 4.5 inches tall.

I stuck a bird in mine just for fun.

Birdies companion...lol!

So here's the scoop. The first 20 people to comment on
this post will get their name thrown in a hat and I will
draw a winner and that person will have a nest shipped
right to their door. {US only please}

As a side note: I have tried to comment on several blog
posts today and for some reason I get an error message.
I will keep trying though. I am not abandoning you! :)

Also just a little fyi...so far I have lost 12 lbs and I am
stuck...can't seem to lose anymore , but I will keep
trying. Great feeling ...

Happy White Wednesday...number 101~

Visit Faded Charm for more lovely white posts.
Blessings~

Yippy! I think I am #1! Pick me, Sandi! I love the little nests ~ they look so real! By that, I mean, they look like they were made by a bird not a machine or person! I love all things birds and would love to win the sweet little nest!
Thank you for the opportunity!

Love the nests...and all your found treasures! Isn't fun to find go-together things at sales, it seems meant to be.

Hi Sandi... I haven't been shopping in any garden places for this year... I think I am going with what I have.... The sun was wonderful today as I golfed on Ladies league.. Some storms went south of us today... I could see the very dark skies... There is a big pattern in Ill. that I am not sure about... You always find the sweetest little things or manage to make them very charming... Sending wishes for a great weekend... We will be on the road to Indy for his grandson's graduation party and driving there and back in one day... That is always alot for me... I will survive....

What a gorgeous nest Sandi! You scored some other great treasures, too. Hope my name makes it in the hat.
Thanks for the chance,
Susan
(and congrats on losing 12 lbs.! one day at a time...)

Hi Sandi,
What a gorgeous grouping-great finds! I ADORE those nests!!!!! Hoping I'm in the top 20.....

Lady Pamela said...

Great finds, Sandi. I have some of those wings and I put them in a small Ikea shadow box. Also - WAY TO GO ON THE WEIGHT! I am really trying to loose, but am stuck. Can't move an ounce. At least I am walking again. That counts for something. Keep on the same track, it will continue after a plateau - it always does.

Donna said...

Hahaha, I am unlucky number 21. I'm running behind on visiting my blogging friends and that's what I get! Those look like sweet prizes, so I know the winner will be delighted. How sweet of you!
