DecoArt Giveaway #2

I'm happy.

It seems the sweet folks at DecoArt
sent me a little extra paint and glaze
to use on my faux zinc nightstand.

Now.
I have some serious hoarding issues
when it comes to art supplies, fabric, paper - you name it.
But, I've decided to share the extra DecoArt supplies
with one of you. 

It seriously just took me 15 minutes and a phone call 
to my therapist to write that last sentence.

(No, not really.)
This giveaway includes:

One 10 oz. jar of Shimmering Silver Elegant Finish Metallic Paint
 One 2 oz. bottle of Ebony Black Americana Acrylic Paint 
One 2 oz. bottle of Titanium White Americana Acrylic Paint
One 2 oz. bottle of Americana Glazing Medium

To enter,
You need to be a very much appreciated
follower or subscriber
and 
comment on this post.

That's it.

Comments will close
August 2 at midnight.

I will announce the winner
on August 3
(My birthday!)

Good luck!

Update: I don't really have a therapist!
 (Not necessarily saying that I don't need one; just don't have one.)
Haha!

  5. Oh my! I would love this....you know I want to try your faux zinc tutorial...keeping my fingers crossed. (I follow via bloglines - hope that counts.) ;-)

  6. I would love a chance to win! Thanks for confessing your hoarding issues. I have the same problem. If I use my paper or fabric then I won't have the paper or fabric to use!

  7. I totally understand the hoarding concerns with craft supplies! I too have the same issues! I think it's part of being a creative soul! Thanks to your therapist for helping you share with us, ha! Suzie

  8. i just got an old dresser from a friend and had to convince my hubby that i would fix it up somehow! then, i saw your tutorial and post last week on the zinc tutorial and decided that is what i am doing! yours looked amazing!

  9. I am a follower!! I don't know what I will do a treatment on, but the possibilities are limitless! I too understand about saving(hoarding sounds harsh, lol) that is what my sideboard top and bottom are for(darn, can't get anything else in there, such a hoarder, I mean saver).

  13. I too have been lusting after the Restoration Hardware zinc furniture and was overjoyed no ecstatic no hyperventilating when I found your web site describing how to do it for myself. I now am obsessed with finding the right pieces to paint- Craigs List is getting more of my time than my small children. It would be great to win the materials and I so appreciate the opportunity. Happy Early Birthday. I love your site.

  14. hey shouldn't we be the ones giving presents to you? Happy Birthday a little early. I saw your tutorial on one of the link parties yesterday & immediately became a follower. I can't wait to try this and see it in real life! Thanks for sharing.
