One of those dear hearts is Jaz@ October Farm. One of the nicest people I have met here in blogland. She had this delightful giveaway of lovely pressed glass. A pair of DOUBLE candle sticks and two pretty serving dishes for candies or whatever you wish. She also included a delicious box of candy to go in the dish. Taffy! I LOVE taffy and I was fortunate enough to win!
It arrived today and I had to clear a place to be able to take a picture of it.
I'm sorry they were a too dark.
Thank you Joyce! Thank you so much. They are just in time for Valentines Day and will help make my table beautiful!
See the double candlesticks. They are just beautiful!If you haven't met Joyce, please stop by her blog for one of her delicious recipes. Today she featured WALNUT BREAD! Also, she has great hints such as making your popcorn with bacon drippings! :)
Just the day before I found out I won this wonderful giveaway, sweet husband was helping me remove dishes from the hutch and broke one of my candle sticks. I just smiled because I knew even prettier ones were on the way. I think my reaction sort of surprised him. I love it when that happens!
Those of you in all that snow I've been hearing about, please stay safe. Joyce, enjoy your snow for me, ok.
Di, you too! I really do miss it even if it can be a pain. It is one of the most beautiful parts of Winter.
Love,
Mona
Hi Mona,
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the lovely win! What a nice give-away she had. I can't wait to see all the finished rooms. I bet it will be so lovely! We have tons of snow here. I always wonder how will it ever melt. But it does and then spring comes and I love Wisconsin again! Have a great week-end~ Hugs, Cindy
Congrats on your beautiful win!
ReplyDeleteI love the snow too. I guess that's because I never see it enough to get sick of it.
Hugs,

Taffy.... used to really enjoy it but at my age now I'm afraid it would pull my teeth out of my head... or maybe my brain! But I can taste it in your photo!
ReplyDeleteAnd what I would not give for the candlesticks! I have a pair but they look quite small and whimpy compared to yours!
I'll go check out her blog cuz I love me the smell of walnuts in the morning! LOL
