Well I am back to reveal the giveaway today! When I was thinking through some options I new I wanted to choose an item that could go with all kinds of different decor, something unique, and something not season specific!
Here’s what I came up with . . . ZINC PLACE CARDS!
These cuties could be used to show people where to sit or to identify food during a potluck party! Chalk is all you need to change out the lettering for different dinner guests! Can’t you just imagine these on my table here. . . or better yet your table!!!
These mini metal masterpieces come to you courtesy of The Lettered Cottage. I have been following Layla’s bog for about a year now and she is a sweetie, so be sure to check it out when you have a chance!
So, here’s how you enter. . .
simply leave a comment for me on this post telling me what you like about the blog, what you want to see more of, or things you aren’t crazy about. If you are new to the blog and aren’t quite sure how to answer that give me an idea of what draws you to blogs in general!
Thanks, and good luck!


Wonderful giveaway! Thanks! I love all your DIY stuff and how you can do it on a low budget. Thanks for the great ideas!
Hi! I am new to your blog, but I will certainly browse around a bit. I love blogs that have good pictures, unique projects, and that don’t make me feel like too much of a dunce.
The placecards are great!
Great photos always draw me to a blog, but you have those already!
Skipped on over to your blog from The Lettered Cottage. Love the placecards! Count me in on the giveaway….have a holiday party coming up soon!
You silly girl, I love everything…
Especially the great creative craft projects. Step by step instructions are always good for me.
Thanks for hosting such an awesome giveaway! I follow Layla’s blog daily and am new to yours, but I really like what I see so far. I love projects, particularly the ‘how to’s’ and lots of pictures. I look forward to checking in with you on a daily basis now too. Thanks.

Hi Kara –
I love that we share a common passion — giving old ‘broken’ things new purpose!
Thank you for considering me in your give away.

Hello!
Am new here … and honestly what drew me were the zinc placecards. I have been looking for some for a while … and maybe even making some (but WHO needs ANOTHER project??) …
Will be sure to come back when I can spend more time and look around.
Thanks, Kara!

Hi!
So nice to be here for the first time from TLC. As you requested, I poked around and looked about on your site. A few things came to mind-first, LOVE that blue stain/finish on your table top and want to know what you used! Gorg! Also, two areas I noticed to tell you about were: You mentioned ‘makeover Mondays,’ quite a few times in previous posts, so I searched the side bar categories to find it. (That seemed to be where the good stuff would be.) Alas, no category…. 🙁 Maybe add that? Secondly, I went to the top of the page several times to get ‘back’ to the home page, but there was no home or main button. That would be helpful. I had fun seeing your bargain prices…I had to keep scrolling from the bottom prices all the way back thru the posts to see what went with which, though. Maybe put the prices under the photo? Just a suggestion.
So….there you have it. Nice that you asked for feedback-that’s awesome!
You are a great bargain hunter, and love those placecards.
Happy Halloween,

So…there you go!
I am mainly drawn to blogs with lots of before and after pics. I love seeing all the amazing transformations!
