Christmas 2012 - Lavender Dreamer
1 year subscription - Nova
Congrats you two! I'll be emailing you for your deets!
Oh, you guys KNOW how I love to ramble on the blog, yes? I'm addicted to all things junk and like to write stories on anything. Did you know I could create an entire story about a rock if I really wanted to?
Anyway, I've been a little antsy wanting to spread my wings abit and chat about more than only junk.
See, I grew up on a 40 acre dairy farm and am a true farmer's daughter. And I've never told you any of those quaint funny little stories.
Well, now I have a place to do just that, which fits like a glove. But there's so much more!

12 more reasons to be exact!
FOLK blog has a shiny new look, and new writers that will share DAILY!
Yup, you have a new daily read! It will be as if part of FOLK magazine just went online. We'll be working hard behind the scenes dishing out all things...
DIY, DECORATING, STORY TELLING, FOOD, FASHION and MORE
On Tuesday at FOLK, I'm sharing a funny little story that happened 40 years ago (story HERE) that still cracks my family up to this day. And will be reminding you as well to shake things up in your own home!
But you know me. I love me some junk. So there will be some new projects over yonder too!
So, you know the blog is tied to the magazine, right?


Here's a sneak peek from my latest FESTIVE JUNK FIXES column for FOLK's Christmas issue. What fiascos did I create this year?!
