Little Meadows Giveaway

 

Hello! As promised, here’s a little giveaway! I am planning for this to be the first in a series of book + soap giveaways, just for fun!

For this first giveaway, I’m including an indigo dyed kerchief sized organic cotton gauze scarf and a 1 oz tin of calendula salve in addition to a bar of beeswax and honey soap and a (gently used) copy of Gilead by Marilynne Robinson. (If you are interested in knowing why I’m giving away used vs. new books, see this post.) I first read Gilead years ago when a friend gave me a copy for my birthday. Maybe you’ve already read it, but you can always pass the book along to a friend!

For your chance to win, simply leave a comment on this post. I will use good old-fashioned random number generator to choose a winner on Monday, September 4th. The winner will be announced within this post on Sept. 5th and notified via email. Because of the prohibitive cost of international shipping, this giveaway is only open to U.S. residents.

Thanks, and good luck!

  4. Thank you for the chance to win! Was excited to see your calendula salve included, as it was all gone by the time I got to the shop. Popular stuff! Thanks again – it’s always fun to see a post from you come through. : )

    • I always look forward to reading your posts, Ginny…
      And buying from your little shop…
      I’m hoping maybe you will have cutting boards again soon?

  6. Hi Ginny! What a fun giveaway! Love your blog by the way and have read for many years. I love how you find beauty in everything.

  9. I’ve been enjoying your blog for over 7 years, having found you through Anne Voskamp’s “Holy Experience” blog (That should tell you how long that’s been! 🙂 ). Our granddaughter is 7, the same age as your youngest girl, and they’ve been growing up together. Blessings on you as you raise your tribe and stay close to the Lord.

  12. I’m so thankful that you are blogging again ! I’ve missed your posts!
    Thank you for doing this giveaway. Someone is going to be very happy.

  13. Ginny – thank you for this opportunity. I love all of you items, especially the chrism salve. And I never win anything – but here it goes anyways 🙂 Have a lovely day.

  20. Thanks for this giveaway. Would be so fun to win. I always look forward to your talk about books and enjoy the updates about your lovely family who are growing up way too fast.

  23. Ginny: Keep up the wonderful blog and know it is greatly appreciated and inspiring! Good luck to everyone.

  28. Hard to believe I’ve followed your blog since 2010/2011 🙂 my son was born 6 months before job 🙂 love your blog 🙂

  30. “Hello” from the Shenandoah Valley. I so enjoy seeing your knitting and crafting projects. Peace and goodness!

  31. Hi Ginny, I think I’ve read every post, or close to It. I’m a Grama but my grands are hundreds of miles away, so I enjoy reading about your days full of books, animals, trees, and all the things that make a life busy and blessed.

  32. Ginny, I’ve followed you for many years and have admired from afar each member of your family. Your way of life is inspiring and your children have and are growing into such lovely, talented, intelligent and gentle souls. May God bless you all. Thank you for this opportunity.

  33. I think your giveaway idea is wonderful. I think it would be a real treat to receive a book and a bar of soap. And the addition of salve and a scarf this time is generous. Thank you for sharing your time and talents!

  35. What a lovely and generous thing to do! I so enjoy following your adventures and can honestly say I have not read the book. Used is how I prefer to buy my books when I can find them and I often pass them on to others, unless it’s one I find I can’t part with and then on to one of several bookcases to reread later. Please toss my hat in the ring!

  36. Would love to win; Gilead has been on my to read list for awhile, but I have so many other unread books, I haven’t bought it yet. Paired with soap and salve, how can I resist!?! Make me want to find something to give away on my blog, though I think people would be less excited for any of my crafts.

  37. Have followed you for years and always enjoy your store and pictured. You are very talented and I wish Icould dye fabric with natural plants like you. I don’t knot but I do crochet. Thanks for the opportunity to win a gift. I love to read also and enjoy old used books

  39. This is an incredible giveaway, Jenny! I love calendula oil, but have never had it in a salve.

  40. Ginny, Thank you for the chance to win . You our so talented. Hope all is good .

  41. Just love the color of the book along with the scarf. And have used the calendula salve great product.

  44. WOW! That indigo is gorgeous! Love your posts. I am a fellow knitter and you inspire me to find the time to pick up my needles! Knitting in Arizona looks a little different:-)

  50. Thank you for the chance to win some of your lovely creations and a book.
    It looks like the random generator will have plenty of numbers to work with.
    Have a wonderful weekend!
