Hello Handmade Giveaway Winner!
The winner of the Hello Handmade giveaway is :
David & Becky (here is their comment on their holiday tradition...)
"My Mom had a Thank You jar on our kitchen counter. Each night before she goes to bed she wrote saying what she was thankful for that day. On New Years she would go through the jar, reading each happy event large or small. She died on New Years morning last year. that day we spent reading her notes from the last year of her life. I still have each one in a box on my dresser. Each time I miss her I pick one of them out. This year I started my own Thank You jar and will spend the anniversary of her death reading them with my husband."
Also, Hello Handmade is offering free shipping to Poppytalk readers now through Friday. Just leave "poppytalk" in the comments section when you check out, and they'll refund their shipping by the end of the day. Thank you to everyone who participated!
