Here it is! My 1000th comment contest!!
Now that I'm actually at 1012 comments, I'm finally able to post my contest! I'm sorry I didn't get it posted last week. I didn't think about how close I was to 1000 when I signed up for the Ultimate Blog Party. Then, comment 1000 actually arrived while I was out bridesmaid dress shopping with my sisters 4 hours away. I came home the next day, but my parents and 2 sisters came with me. I try to limit my computer time when I have guests, so I couldn't post it then.
But they're gone now, so I can take pictures and post my contest. There are going to be several prizes, and 3 winners!
Winner #1 will receive a lovely brown, pink, and multi-colored stripe half-apron for garden or kitchen use, along with their choice of 1 out of 3 Spring wall hangings I made, inspired by Molly Green!
Winner #2 will get their choice of the remaining 2 Spring wall hangings. If they want it, they will also receive a copy (used) of Raising Happy Kids On A Reasonable Budget.
Winner #3 will get the last Spring wall hanging, and possibly the Raising Happy Kids On A Reasonable Budget if winner #2 didn't want it.
I love this Mumz apron. I bought several of them when I found it on sale. One for me, and several more to give away as gifts. Besides it's bright colors, it has handy pockets and a sturdy fabric. If you use it outdoors, it has a natural bug repellent in the fabric, made from chrysanthemums. Raising Happy Kids on a Reasonable Budget was one of several books I've gleaned from as a Mom living on a budget.
Molly Green showed me how to make this in the February issue of Molly's Money Saving Digest. I made several of them at once, in different colors. Then my family chose which one we'd keep and which we'd give away.
Here's a closer view of one of the wall hangings. One is a turquoise floral print with chocolate brown and pink layers. One is blue with a white floral print layer and then the pink. The other is a pink abstract layer with a blue abstract layer and the pink again.
If my secret sister at church finds this blog somehow, I'm going to be "found out". I gave her an apron and a wall-hanging already this year. Oops!
