Anniversary & Appreciation Giveaway

4 years ago, I haphazardly wandered into blogging and was floored by the sense of community I found.   Readers and bloggers alike made me feel so welcome - I will be forever grateful for the kindness you've all shown me.  As a token of my appreciation, I'd like to hold a giveaway for a custom-made, knee-length, pleated navy chevron skirt as shown below:


This skirt will be custom made to your waist size and length using 100% cotton / machine-washable fabric.  Once measurements have been communicated, please allow 3-4 weeks for skirt construction.

 Giveaway Guidelines:

  1. To enter, simply leave a comment below with either your email OR Twitter / Instagram username.
  2. For a bonus entry, leave a comment on what you'd like to see on the blog.  Could be a DIY / tutorial project or any feedback you may have.
  3. I will randomly select a winner on September 24th.  The winner will have 48 hours to contact me to claim the skirt.  If unclaimed, I will draw another winner.  
  4. This giveaway is open to all readers domestic or international.

Thank you and good luck!

    Happy anniversary, SPG! Love your blog, especially the food posts (restaurant reviews, recipes, etc.). I'm interested in learning to sew but don't know how to get started on my own. I would like to see an introductory series on sewing basics, like how to use a sewing machine. My instagram is @dresslikeanengineer. Thanks!

    Hi SPG! :} Congrats on 4 years of blogging! (wow, 4 years!). I don't sew at all and would probably not do any sewing beyond basic mending, but I like seeing the different projects that you embark you. It would be cute/nice if you do weekly/biweekly "sharing" postings, sharing things that you liked/made you smile/made your life be it websites, articles, products (makeup, face, household etc), videos or quotes.

    Hi SPG
    I was inspired to learn to sew because of your blog! Would love to see suggestions for simple alterations to make clothing more tailored/better fitting- I often pass on great clothing because it just doesn't fit quite right but don't want to pay a lot for alterations.
    Thx, silvereggplant@hotmail.com

    Happy 4 years! I love your blog. Although I love the sewing DIYs, I'd love to see more food tutorials...your mom's cooking is similar to my grandma's YUMMY...I just haven't gotten around to getting tutorials from her yet.
