Hello everyone! I promised to announce the three winners for our Blog Boss contest but first, I want to thank all who entered our flash giveaway!

Here are the three winners selected via Random.org.

Our winners are:

CONGRATULATIONS to our winners! Note to winners: I will contact you via email or Facebook today – if I do not hear a response from you by March 1st to claim this prize, I will randomly select another winner to take your place since class begins in March 1st.

THANK YOU all so much for entering and sharing news about Blog Boss. I really, really appreciate it and the buzz generated – it made me and my teachers very happy.

Hello, it’s me again! Okay so I have the winner for a signed copy of the UK version of Decorate Workshop from a contest that I ran in October HERE – a big thank you to all who participated! We didn’t really find a blog workshop name so I randomly selected a winner from all who left a fun suggestion anyway because I really want to give someone a book!

(shown: poster included with every book, turn the book jacket inside out, iron and hang!)

The WINNER is… Studio Ninocka. Congrats! I will ship your book as soon as you email me with your contact information.

AGAIN, thank you to all who entered my contest!

I am SO EXCITED to announce this super duper giveaway sponsored by my publisher, Chronicle Books! They are giving one of you an opportunity to win this incredible box of loot. I picked every single thing out by hand and they’re shown and listed below – a $500 value, too! Oh  my!

When Chronicle asked that I go shopping for a giveaway, I was beyond happy to say yes so I gathered some of my favorite things and this gift box is the result. I thought that since I’m in my work studio the most, and that I am always super inspired when I’m working in this space, that I would give someone all of my favorite things that I think everyone should have around them as they’re blogging, reading blogs, working, crafting, making, etc. In my upcoming book, Decorate Workshop, I share my studio space and how I planned it out from the initial mood board to the “after” photos, so I wanted the gift box to also relate to the book so why not include things that I use and love at home?

To ENTER to win you need to CLICK HERE (Note: You’ll notice official rules of entry linked there as well).

So dear friends, here are a few of my favorite things from shops that I love like Anthropologie, West Elm, Jonathan Adler, Chronicle Books + More! The best part is, every single item will be included in your super special gift box if you win – Winner takes ALL!
