Blogger Block Christmas Tree Party and $100 Pottery Barn Giveaway!


It’s time for the Blogger’s Block Party
Christmas Tree Party!


Thank you to Heather and Vanessa
At the Picket Fence for giving me the opportunity to participate!  It’s such an honor.


See here my complete living room 
Christmas Tree post.



The Silverware Tree post is here.


The Potpourri Party #14  Features
are located here 


Now for the Giveaway!
Hometalk   is  graciously  sponsoring a

$100  Gift Card to
The Pottery Barn!! 

Hometalk is a great place to get quick answers on  home improvement, repairs, decor and related questions around the house and garden by an all-star line-up of pros and panelists  that contribute to Hometalk.   It is also a great place to share your own tips with others and even show off some of your own handiwork.
It is a free site  that exists for one simple reason: to make home improvement  an easier and better experience for you, including the following: 
  • Get almost instant answers to questions  about   your home & garden.
  • Search photos and tips for inspiration and information.
  • Post photos of your handiwork.
  • Get real & reliable reviews of local contractors.
  • Read home improvement articles on Networx, many of which have been featured on major news outlets.
  • Sign up for their weekly giveaways!
 


How to enter:  
It’s  simple and easy and worth your time to
 check out Hometalk  and do the following!

2.  Please post the Blogger’s Block Party Button located on  the sidebar, or a text link back in the body of your post so that  others can join in the Party Fun.   If you find your link deleted then a link-back to this party was not in your post.  Just add a link  to your post and try again.  If you need help, just ask. This is a must!
