Giveaway Day :: Imparting Grace


You know how the fun part of blogging is meeting people? One day a few months ago, I went to my PO box and got a package and a letter. It was from Richella at Imparting Grace. She told me a little of her story and what that had to do with Nesting Place. And let me just say that her letter is forever sealed in a protective sheath and has the place of honor in the very front of my blogging notebook.

It's been a long year for Richella and her family. She just started blogging again after her long year and even went out and got herself a lovely, new blog design. In honor of that, and I say in celebration of being able to look back on this past year, Richella wants to offer you the chance to win a Burt's Bee's Gift Basket valued at $75.


If you live under a rock and don't know about Burt and his bees then you can read all about it here. They started out just like so many of us--at a local craft fair. Now they are the leading manufacturer of earth friendly natural personal care products. I used some of their lip balm just hours ago. I love their products because my husband and I can share them.


I stole that up there from the BB website. But now their headquarters is close to Richella and her family so it was only fitting that she give aways some of their goods.


She's gonna kill me for putting that picture up there. Richella. It's pronounced rih-shell'-uh. As she says, kind of like Michelle only fancier. I have a different name as well. I also have to tell people how it's pronounce, rhyme it with another familiar name and explain why it's half man. We have so much in common. I hope you love Richella as much as I do. And I'm hoping to meet her in a few months!

Leave a comment {with your email address if you don't have a blog where I can find you} to enter to win the Burt's Bees Basket. Contest closes at midnight Wednesday. Be sure to scroll down and visit the other giveaways too! Good Luck!
