Here are the goodies~
16"x16" French inspired tote. This bag is a lightweight linen/cotton type of fabric- great for the flea market, a book and water bottle and sunscreen......or your lunch! It has a fun grain sack look with "Belle Jardiniere" stenciled on it.
A cute "soda" dish, would be darling hanging in your kitchen.
Also, a vintage bottle embellished by my cousin and Jazz partner Tara, using vintage crocheting, some bling, and pages from an old hymnal. A sprig of lavender will make everything smell wonderful, of course!
There will also be a SURPRISE gift from the Pottery Barn!
This will be based on the winner so it is "to be determined" (will take into account the winner's interests and favorite things.... this will make the giveaway even more personal and FUN!)
Okay, here is all you have to do to be entered!

What a lovely giveaway!! Please enter me, I'd love to win!
First blog I remember reading was Lisa Bearnson... she was the editor of a scrapbook magazine "Creating Keepsakes".. not sure how I remember that
My first blog was YOURS! You kindly gave the whole family the blogging bug, thank you very much. Now look where it has gotten me! I may have to have you hook me up with one of those bags Cousin dear!
Dear Daisy Cottage. I had never heard of a blog. I found her photos on Flickr and the rest is history. :)

What a great question!! I remember looking around for a little bit on the scrapbook blogs, mainly Amazing Paper Grace with Becca Feeken, then I branched out and found Rose Garden Romantic...I was done after that....I mean done just browsing around. It was time to participate! I started my own blog after that and I was hooked!
You have some lovely items for your giveaway and I'd love to win it! Thanks so much for the opportunity!
Blessings, Doni

Lovely giveaway! I really can't remember what my first blog was I read, it's been SO LONG ago. I can remember my first follower, perhaps she was my first blog I read so I'll go with that, Tiny Treasures in England :)
Congrats on celebrating one year. My 1st blog was my best gal pal's "Excuse Me While I Buy This Junk" over at Wanda@JustVintage.com. I really enjoy your blog and I am a follower! YEAH...I will grab your linky button...You gotta come on over to my place cause I am having a 100 Follower Giveaway! Thanx Tiff
What an amazing giveaway! I would love to win that stuff! :)) The first blog I ever remember reading was Pioneer Woman.. that was 4 years back. I remember it being the first time I have ever seen anyone photograph step by step photos of making a meal; I remember thinking how cool that was. :)

Fun giveaway! The very first blog I can remember reading was written by Tara Frey and was called Bella Pink and is now called Typing out Loud. She even wrote a book on blogging, but doesn't blog all that much anymore.
Giveaways are so fun. I love all the items you have included (the tote bag is AMAZING). Please, oh please add me to the list.
To answer your question: The first blog I remember reading was The Cottage Nest and boy oh boy did it ever open my eyes to a whole new world!
What a pretty giveaway!!
My first blog I ever read was Tara Frey's too! I bought her book Blogging for Bliss and after a year of lurking started my own!
Oh, forgot to say, Happy Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary girls! You two are too much fun :)
The very first blog I read was over a year ago..... Tara's blog - Blondie n' SC. I fell in love with her writing, her style, everything! I had to read her whole entire blog from the beginning :) She actually inspired me to start a blog....
Thanks for a fun and "thoughtful" giveaway :)

Wow! Great giveaway Miss Michelle! Happy anniversary!! That tote is too awesome!!

Hey! I just came back to visit you because I wanted to see what everyone wrote as their first blog and the comment that I left the other day isn't here!! I commented right when you posted this...I must have click out before I did the word verification.

Love that tote! I can think of a million uses for it!
I love all of that! Thanks for letting me know! Melaine
Congrats on 1 year in the bloggy world! Such a fantastic giveaway so please count me in!
The first blog I discovered is sadly no more but I think The Pioneer Woman was one of the firsts. I still check her out every day (along with a BUNCH of others). Yup, I'm a blog junkie!
I'm happy to post your giveaway on my sidebar. Everyone needs to come and see your fun and inspiring blog!
CUTE! I kept meaning to come over and enter this so I'm glad your reminded me to stop back by : ) The first blog I ever read was The Porch and Atelier (porchatelier.blogspot.com), because the owner's home was featured in Country Living magazine and they listed her blog for more details. When I visited, I had no idea what a "sidebar" was or why there were all sorts of other things listed there, but I happened to stumble from there to Round Barn Potting Company (roundbarnpottingco.blogspot.com). The rest is history! Those two blogs are still some of my favorites, and stores I'd love to visit some day.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Courtney
Happy anniversary girls, I think the first blog I remember reading was Victoria rose cottage. She designed my website and I had never seen a blog before that. Some others that I recall first reading were Adored Before, Melissa's blog and Amada Labels over the top studios. This is the first time I have been here and plan to bookmark you. Becs
Hi just wanted to say thanks for your lovely comments on my blog you're so sweet. I did make the red bag in my giveaway, so glad you like it :)

The first blog I remember reading was a homeschool blog. I was thinking of homeschooling and had no idea what a blog was until I read about homeschooling blogs in a magazine. This was a way for me to connect with others who homeschool. I was thrilled to find all the creative blogs shortly after.

Hi
You have the most beautiful Blog and the Giveaway is gorgeous, I adore anything with French Flair.
I cannot remember the first Blog I visited but I do remember the first Blog that had an impact on me, it was Marie's Lost Bird Studio. Everything about it was so artful and a thing of beauty.

My first blog to read was Indigo Pears! She's in my list of favorites and a childhood friend...and an artist! It's nice to remember back! ♥
Oh Sweetie...
What a beautiful share. I love it. How kind of you to ask about our first blog that we visited. Mine would be my daughters, Fairy Footprints in the Sand. She so inspired me to create. She has since gone off to school and classes, and I find myself blogging even more. I thank her for the bug. She SO inspired me.
I love your gorgeous giveaway and I am so tickled to have found your beautiful blog home. I am Country Wings in Phoenix, your newest follower. I can't wait to see what you share next.
Thank you so much for the wonderful giveaway opportunity, and congratulations on your wonderful blog stone accomplishment, your first year.
Many country hugs, Sherry
Congratulations on your 1 year blogging anniversary! The first blog I read was Dawn's "The Feathered Nest". I checked out her blog after reading an article about her fairy in a jar creations in an issue of Somerset Life.
