If It Were Me,

I'd choose the Jolly Rancher Apple Green one.

As you can see, [and if you haven't yet noticed], I like green.
But, it isn't me, it's YOU!
A Giveaway in honor of Independence day around the corner:
A handmade, stained glass star!




My dad has just opened up a new Etsy shop and is generously allowing the winner to pick ANY star ANY color ANY size!  Take a quick visit over there and leave a comment [here] about which one you'd choose.  

This giveaway will stay open until Sunday, the 27th and he'll ship it out to the winner on the 28th in time for you to display for the 4th of July [though you'll really want to keep it up year round like we do ours!]

They are all really nice but I agree with you. I would pick the jolly rancher green apple star.

Mama V said...

I'm with you, too! Jolly rancher green. Or wait - Lavender Star is amazing, too! (They look like they're dancing!)

Thank you both for your generosity!
