Wow! SNS reached 95 posts, thanks to all your wonderful entries! Here is a VERY SMALL sampling to enjoy once again...



I have ALWAYS wanted to know how stamping metal was done. Infarrantly Creative provides a great tutorial! This is soooo sweet! And I'm totally going to look for a metal stamp.



What a FIND! This is a vintage spice rack and it's gorgeous! How lucky is Snowman Hill?!?



You've seen the ornament wreaths, but have you seen the ornament garland?!? Cheap Chic Home gives shows you how. Very lux!



Have you always wanted to paint a mural but just didn't quite know how? Everyday Kings makes it EASY! Check it out! Isn't this gorgeous?



I am SO IN LOVE with this one! An authentic picket becomes a coat rack, by Jentility.



STUNNING tablescape pieces by Fern Creek Cottage. Each and every one is a must have! Look at the layering with the plate! (drool)

I hope you were also glancing at the sidebar widgets during the weekend. I like to highlight a few posts and change them out each day.

OK, and now for a winner! The qualified entries were thrown together and my son drew...






Julia's DIY entry was this adorable snowman cupcake design. Yummm and cool at the same time! Very sweet entry, Julia, and thanks for being a part of the party! And this is what she won.


Julia is the fortunate recipient of these incredible fractal art cards...

“What a great experience it was to sponsor a giveaway on your site, Donna! Thank you so much! Being new to the blog world it was a great way to expose readers to my artwork! I loved reading which pieces were your readers favorites! I will use this information when creating new pieces and also for future giveaways! I also made my first Etsy sale during your Saturday Night Special! I loved working with you and look forward to working with you again soon!”
