Spring Giveaway

Jonny and I escaped to the used book store recently so I have a giveaway for you! I found a pretty copy of Brideshead Revisited (affiliate link) and I would love to send it to one of you along with a bar of chrism essence goat’s milk soap and a tube of vanilla bean lip balm. (See the original giveaway post for more information on my series of book + soap giveaways.)

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, March 25th. The winner will be announced within this post and notified via email. Because of the prohibitive cost of international shipping, this giveaway is only open to U.S. residents. However, last time a few who live outside of U.S. asked if you could enter and then pay shipping costs if you win. Yes, that is fine!

Comments are closed and the winner is Lynette!

  1. Nothing more cozy than a good book and pretty scents. I end each day mining the quiet with my head inside a story.

    Thank you for the opportunity.

  2. Do you only send out books that you yourself recommend? Or just something that took your fancy?

    I ask because should I *not* win (I never do), I can still borrow it from the library if you recommend reading it. I love reading things reliable resources recommend. 😉

  3. What a lovely giveaway! I’ve had Brideshead Revisited on my to-read list for such a very long time. Thank you for the opportunity!

  6. Used bookstores are so much fun, aren’t they? You’re so generous with your lovely giveaways!

  8. Thank you for the lovely giveaway! I always enjoy your posts and beautiful photography 😍

  9. Small things is a beautiful place on the internet where I wish I could live. Thank you, Ginny

  12. Glad you and your husband enjoyed an excursion. My husband and I just got away for a lovely spring hike just last week. It took two months of planning but was worth the wait.

  13. Hi Ginny – I gift in the mail would be so fun! I just had a birthday, if that helps the random number generator, LOL. I love reading your post. Thank you for letting me be part of your reading community :-).

  14. Your blog posts have been a joy to read over the past ten years of my life… from the beautiful photography to the life affirming (and REAL) words of Catholic motherhood… thank you.

  15. How fun! Thanks for the giveaway! Love your writing and following along here 🙂

  16. Have followed you for a long time. Just love reading about your beautiful family and the area where you live. Would love to read this book

  21. I just bought Hellebores for our new home. Trying to figure out where the Javalina won’t dig them up. Your photos & flowers are lovely.

  24. Hi, I love your spring hellebores! Thank you for sharing beauty and lovingly made products!

  30. Thank you for sharing beauty in creative and unique ways, and for the chance at your giveaway!

  32. I’d love to get the book. I haven’t read the original, but did see the television adaptation. I read all the time so another book might save me a trip to the library and I could put it into the little free library down the street once I’ve read it of course. Love those little free libraries, they really saved the day for me when the downtown library was closed during Covid lockdown.

  34. Since March 25 is my oldest sons birthday – I think his mother (me;) would enjoy this lovely gift set! Books and handmade goods! My one weakness!

  38. I always love reading your posts. I just ordered the lip balm, but I would love a chance to win the book and try the soap. Thank you!

  40. Fun giveaway, thanks Ginny! Love your soap…and I’m not familiar with the book.

  46. Thank you for offering a giveaway and sharing your lovely photography. I would enjoy the giveaway! God bless!

  48. I love the photo of the cat exploring the flower garden! I always look forward to your posts. Spring is slowly arriving here in Connecticut…too slow for me! Happy Easter!

  49. Oh, I’d love to win this! I’ve never read Brideshead Revisited and I checked out the Chrism soap and the lip balm just yesterday! Would love to win.
