THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED!
Wine, men, cheese, classic movies, heirlooms and lumps of coal. What do all these things have in common? Well, they get better with age of course! (You're all, "lumps of coal?" Um yeeeeah?? Coal turns into diamonds? That's much better, right???)
These days we love words like refined, retro, classic, nostalgia and VINTAGE. There is nothing like setting up an eclectic display to jazz up your living room and having that one special conversation piece, that piece your friends zoom right in on and say, "wow! where did you get THAT?!"
Since I love you all so much, I am about to offer you that very opportunity by hosting a fantabulous giveaway!!
My dear friend, my beef, is an awesome blogger who has this shop on Etsy, and let me tell you, it.is.delectable! She and her Donnafriend have an eye, or 4 eyes to be exact, for the unique, refined and classic vintage items we all wish we could eye on our own! They have scoured a rich corner of the US, for all of us, to offer a little "special something" to bring our decorative displays in our home to a whole new level. Check out some of these scrumptious finds!
And today you get to enter to win a fantastic item from their shop, Vintage Umbrella! Here it is!!
The giveaway item being offered to perk up your home and life is this beautiful milk glass compote, which was made by the EO Brody Company - Cleveland Ohio. So wonderful, right???
In perfect vintage condition, this piece is 5.5" tall, 6.5" wide, and 3" deep, and boasts a lovely dot, tulip and swirly leaf relief pattern, with scalloped edges on the boot and bowl rim. This pedestal bowl can be used as servingwear for fruit, desserts, candy or mints...oh can you imagine this sitting in your holiday display with colorful ribbon candy??? Winn says it's perfect for wine or hard liquor, but, she doesn't even drink. If you win you can determine that on your own.
OK because I truly believe all her items speak for themselves in their gorgeous shop, I will now move on to the entry rules...

The Ornate Tissue Holder is ridiculously vintage! I think all of my older aunts had one when I was a little girl.
My favorite item is the Footed Mirror Plateau. My gramdmother had one I loved as a kid but it got broken somehow. Matter of fact, my grandmother had a lot of the items in the store!
