~ 100th Post Giveaway ~



So, this is my 100th post! And, today is December 1st.


In celebration, I'm having my first giveaway!

One lucky winner will receive this lovely little Growers Daughter package!



A gorgeous piece of vintage french ticking (it's roughly 2' x 4') as well as an assortment of 50 vintage buttons. These would be fabulous for so many different projects!

As well, one pillow made from a vintage bank deposit bag.

And, since it's the first giveaway, and since Christmas is just around the corner, I'm also including a $25 gift card to The Growers Daughter Etsy shop.

Entering is as easy as this:

Become a follower of The Growers Daughter and leave a comment letting me know you've done so (or already are!).
(to do this, click the "follow" button in the tool bar at the top left of the page)

For additional chances to win, you can post a link to the giveaway on your social networking site like facebook or twitter. Or, add a link on your own blog!
Either way, for each additional chance to win, just make sure to leave a separate comment.

Good luck! Enter before December 12th at midnight and a winner will be drawn randomly on December 13th.

  1. Thanks so much for offering this fun giveaway. I found your blog and became a follower a bit ago and so glad I did. I love your style and fun posts. Being from Ontario as well, it's neat to see some of the familiar places you visit. Have a beautiful day!! Heather

  2. Hi there Maria-
    I randomly stumbled upon your blog yesterday and I'm so thrilled that I did! I lived in St. Catharines for a couple of years and now live in Barrie with my husband and family. I read through every one of your posts after we put the kids to bed last night and I was so inspired. Surrounded by modern suburbs, I didn't think that I'd find a Canadian blog with all the same things that I love about the blogs I read from around the world. :)
    You have incredible talent and your flower arrangements are amazing.
    I couldn't believe that you had a TAG sale! I never thought that I'd get to go to one of those. So please, let me know when you plan on having another!
    I had to laugh: towards the end of my browsing, I noticed your last name-my family knows members of the Heikoop family! I know there are hundreds of you, but what a small world...
    Best of luck with all of your creative ventures and thanks for all of the inspiration so close to home!
    Melissa

  32. I am a new follower of your blog and thrilled to have found it. The photo of the pillows in this post brought a huge smile to my face. I noticed the one of Boston, MA right away. I travel to Boston frequently for medical care. What fun it was to see the pillow and visit your Etsy shop. Your vintage inspired shopping bags and French inspired stockings sure caught my eye, too. Thanks for the fun giveaway.
