Vintage Thingies Thursday - Giveaway!

Contest Closed - I will try to have winners announced by Monday evening. Thanks to all who entered and your sweet comments. You gals just make my week complete!
I am a giver by nature. I love to give surprises to people. I give my time to worthy endeavors. I give my money to worthy causes. I give Matchbox cars to little boys. I give hugs when I see people hurting. I give solicited and unsolicited advice. I give my opinion when I should keep my mouth shut. I give encouragement. I have literally given the clothes off my back and the hair from my head. I give my shoulder on which to cry. I give my hands to help. Because I have been given much, I feel compelled to give much.

Sooooooooooooooooooooo..............

To celebrate Love on Wednesday and Vintage Thingies Thursdays which Colorado Lady so graciously hosts every week, bless her dear giving heart, these are what I'm giving away this month.


First, for all you vintage jewelry loving ladies, I am giving away a set of vintage faux pearls with a rhinestone clasp. These are classic and can be worn with anything from jeans to evening attire. Believe me - you will love them!


Secondly, for all the apron lovers and redaholics, I am giving away this cutie red apron handmade by moi. I made this to sell and I am so glad it did not because now I can give it to someone. I gain more pleasure giving it to someone than I ever would receiving money. Plus I want one of my readers to have it, wear it, and say, "That Rosie sure is nice, you should read her blog." I am being honest here, it is a small bribe, but you and I both get something this way.




How do you enter for this giveaway? Leave a comment on this post! Just tell me which item you would prefer. If you want to enter for both that is fine also, but just enter your name one time and know that you cannot win both items. I'll keep comments open for entry until Sunday, March 1, 2009, 6:00 p.m. EST. After that time, I'll close comments and Oscar will draw one winner for each item. Don't have a blogger account and want to enter? Simple. Send an e-mail to RosieReads@gmail.com and I'll throw your name into the virtual pot. Your e-mail must come through my account before the deadline. Either way, I must be able to contact you, so make sure your e-mail is listed on your blogsite.


Thanks for entering and good luck!


Thanks for reading, Rosie.



Guess Who??????

That oscar is freaking me out as I am writing this. I'll have to move the comment box over his eyes if he doesn't stop!
Your apron is lovely, but I know I'd never use it. The pearls however I'd wear with a black t-shirt and jeans every day if I could! I love that they are a double strand.
I posted 5 different giveaways yesterday. You only have until Friday midnight to enter.

Rachael loves vintage costume jewelry. Could you please enter her in the giveaway? Her email is zrma7@etsu.goldmail.edu

Of course, that apron looks just made for a young lady born on Valentine's Day, too. Since she can't be entered in both, can I enter for that and give it to her as agift if I win?

Oscar, if my name is not chosen for that necklace, then I will tell LOTS of embarrassing stories about your Mother. I am sorry to have to do this, but your Mother will be the talk of all your little doggie friends. It won't be pretty Oscar, you will have to disguise yourself as a Olde English Sheepdog or something like that.

LADY JANE said...

Rosie, What a gal you are! I love your intro...You are a giver,how could a girl begin to choose! I could see myself...jammies covered up with that beautiful apron you made ,and wearing those VINTAGE pearls...I know givers should NOT be choosers...but you could choose for me...I would be thrilled to win either! Actually I am just thrilled to stop by and see your lovely bloghome!

Rosie, what a sweet thing to do. I love the necklace, I could add it to my collection. Pearls are a right of passage in my family. I have several but finally got a real one from my DH. The clasp on this is cool. Ok, Oscar do your thang and pick me.

That is so nice. I love the apron. This is my first trip here and I love Oscar. We had a dachshund, she lived to be 14 1/2, we loved her so much. They are the sweetest dogs. Give him a hug for me.
