A chifferobe/wardrobe and a give-a-way

Edited to add linking here:   go check it out..

I have a very sweet husband (Jeff) who really does like to make me happy.. a couple weeks before Christmas his brother built his wife a beautiful wardrobe.  When we met at my MIL house for her birthday they were showing us pictures of it and I loved it.  Here's where the sweet husband comes in,, He got his brother to help him build me one for Christmas.. and I  LOVE it. 

(guessing the date needs to be changed on the camera,, ha ha)

I just cant decide how to finish it.. should I paint, distress and glaze it,, stain it..?? I'm undecided and I dont want to do anything until I'm sure..  So I thought I'd have a little give-a-way and maybe all of you can help me decide.  One of my favorite gifts this Christmas was a goody bag from my sister filled with all sorts of things I liked and I loved it.  It was like getting several presents in one... so the winner will receive a "goody bag" of sorts.  I promise you'll love it.  So to win ..

1st chance  - leave me a comment with your suggestion or links to suggestions on how I should finish it. 

2nd  chance -  become a follower and leave a comment letting me know or leave a comment saying you already follow. 

Give-a-way will end at midnight January 2nd and I'll announce the winner Monday morning.  Spread the word.   And I hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year. 

Merrry Christmas

Hope everyone has had a blessed Christmas celebrating Jesus' birthday.  I feel so blessed not because of gifts we received but because we have so much to be thankful for.  

 A sweet blogger friend, Edie,  had a tragic loss the week of Christmas and another very sweet blogger, Shelle,  is dealing with breast cancer.  They are both in my thoughts and prayers.  

Snowmen all around

This past weekend I finally got around to crafting a little.  I told some of my family that I was making them a snowman and since I am usually notoriously late doing things that I say Im gonna do I decided I would get them done before the Christmas season is over... yay I did it..
I saw the idea to make these out of scrap 2x4 over at Under My Polka Dot Umbrella . 
She made some here.  

I like the way she distressed her edges. I havent decided if Im gonna do that or not. 



I also made these little paint stick snowmen,,, but I cut the paint sticks in half 



Hope everyone is enjoying the Holiday season,, Thanks for stopping by!
