{colin cowie} Target Card Giveaway November 10th marked the second month of a thoughtful place being up and running. I have been overwhelmed with the support, encouragement, inspiration, and thoughtfulness of the blogging community. I am still blown away with what a wonderful vehicle it is to be able to share our thoughts and ideas for making the home a special place to be. And I am so grateful to my loyal readers. I began the blog as an outlet for the ideas that are constantly swirling around in my head {and to spare my hubby from having to hear all about it!}. It has rapidly turned into a passion of mine and I am thankful to those of you who pop in for a look now and again. 
In thanksgiving for my wonderful followers, I am giving away a $30 Target gift card. Tis the season for shopping so I know it will go to great use. If you are interested, here is what you need to do: 1. Comment: Leave me a comment letting me know you are already a follower and what is on your wish list this year. 2. Become a follower: If you are not a follower, you may follow by clicking the “follow” button and then let me know by leaving a comment with what is on your wish list. 3. Tweet, Blog, and/or Facebook. For additional chances to win, tweet, blog or post about this giveaway on Facebook and leave me a comment letting me know about each post. The giveaway will close Wednesday, November 24th at 9:00 PM (PST). The gift card winner will be announced Friday November 26th {the day after Thanksgiving when you’ll be ready to get your shopping on!} This giveaway is now closed. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Stop by on Friday to see who won! And it wouldn’t be Friday around here if I didn’t leave you with some fantastic eye candy.
{images from Traditional Home} I am so happy to be guest posting over at Ten June today. Michelle is one of my favorite bloggers and I am honored that she asked me to share a little bit of our Thanksgiving décor. Have a wonderful weekend. Enjoy the time with your families.
I'm a new follower and on my list this year is a food processor.

I am already a follower, you are fantastic, I love your blog. I am wishing for something completely needless and fun, to me. I want a sodastream soda machine. You can make your own soda flavors right at home. I love bubbly drinks, but I don't love all the sugar in traditional soda, so I am always mixing different juices with sparkling water. I think it would be fun to be able to carbonate my own water 😉
