Since it tis the season for giving I have put together a month of giveaways for YOU (this is the final one;) as a thank you for following and reading the blog. It's my small way to say "thank you" and to let you know how much I appreciate your continued interest and support, and how grateful I am to those who take the time to leave comments.
It means so much to me to have you here.
I'd like to introduce you to Alyssa of The Copper Poppy! Alyssa creates custom hand-stamped accessories for pets and their people. Knowing how many of you are dog lovers I knew you would love this giveaway! I met Alyssa on Instagram- she and her husband left the big city (Chicago) to move to New Hampshire a couple of years ago- sound familiar?! She lives on a charming antique farmstead with two precious dogs (Darby and Poppy) and two beautiful horses (Moxie and Finnegan). It wasn't until I started corresponding with Alyssa about doing a giveaway that I found out that she used to read my blog back when she lived in the Chicago suburbs and she would dream about how "she" could possibly make such a move one day! A job opportunity for her husband made the dream a reality three years ago. Like us, Alyssa and her husband love it here!
Here is a small sampling of her charming pieces for dogs, cats and horses...
Alyssa also makes jewelry and keepsakes for weddings, gifts, anniversaries, etc.
(This one looks like it could have been made just for me!)

Such a cute website. I would definitely chose the pet tag for my sweet LOLA GRACE!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for this post, Joan, our daughter and her husband recently added a yellow lab puppy (Lola) to their family. The Copper Poppy pet tags would make a wonderful gift for her.
ReplyDeleteBUT being an avid reader, my choice would be for the bookmark labelled, "Once upon a time." Thanks for introducing someone who has also made the move to NH as ae hope to do when our VA home sells. Wishing you a Happy New Year!
We have both a horse and dogs so it was tough to choose but my first choice was the "Layla tag in layered mixed metals".
