Christmas ON THE FARM book giveaway


 Dear Friends, 
This is such a busy time for everyone as we count down to Christmas. If you're like me, you're still shopping, or finishing up last minute handmade items as well as planning menu's and standing in line at the post office too! All in the name of Christmas; the most joyous time of the year! We can all use a little help in our planning so I'm offering you a chance to win this charming book Christmas ON THE FARM. A collection of favorite recipes, stories, gift ideas, and decorating tips from The Farmers' Wife; the original Magazine from the early 1900's.

This wonderful book is a treasure trove of old fashioned ideas for a frugal, and loving homemade Christmas celebration. I've been reading my copy over the last few days and have fallen in love with it and I want one of YOU to have a copy too! It's my way of saying THANK YOU for being a part of the Dandelion House community! You make me laugh, inspire me with your amazing talents and give me that warm fuzzy feeling when you leave a note on my door!

TO ENTER:  Please leave a comment telling me you wish to be entered in my giveaway. If you are new to my blog, join us any way you wish... Follow, Subscribe by email, Face Book or Network Blogs. Be sure to let me know if you're new and have followed so I can come to your blog too! 

I wish I could give you ALL a copy, but I'm not Oprah! < Grin >

I'll announce the winner via a random drawing the old fashioned way ( out of a hat )
December 20th! 

Happy Merry Making! 

PS. I got my copy at the Tractor Supply and it's also available from Amazon.com!
