Vintage Santa Giveaways!


We have two reasons to celebrate today...
So we have two giveaway treasures!
Santa transfers from my original watercolors on vintage linen.


The first is to celebrate 700+ AWESOME followers...


The second... is to celebrate 1500 Etsy sales!

All because of your friendships and support~
My way to say Thank you!

I hope you leave a little note on this post to have
a chance to win one of these linen treasures!
I don't mean to be rushing the seasons along...
Just thought it might be nice to have Santa early
because many of you make beautiful holiday gifts!
~Two names will be taken from the hat Sept. 20th~

Thank you, Friends...
