Spring Celebration -- (my nest giveaway!)

The little nests are off on their own around the world tours~~


I'm doing the happy dance here in my Sacred Yarn Room (or at least I would if I could do so without tripping over something!) My winter nesting is finally finished and 40 little nests have been delivered to happy little homes all over the world. 



During the past 4 months - I've made 40 woodland nests, 6 photo prop nests, and 3 tabletop nests.  I've strung yarns all over this room - somewhere in here, I think I've buried my sketchbook.  (yes - I've seemed to have lost it again!)



I've also created 2 new nest designs that I am anxious to show you!  One of the designs was created especially for the One World Our Art blogging event that is to be held later this year.  The other one - I will be showing you sometime soon~~

 So I've been busy - to say the least!



To CELEBRATE all of this and the fact that I am finished (!!)~~
I've saved the very last nest for YOU!

If you would like to enter this giveaway - please just leave a comment here on this post.  

The winner will be announced here at the bottom of this post on May 27- so be sure to check back. If you do not have a blog of your own - PLEASE make sure that you leave your email address so that  I can contact you if you win. Maddy girl is in charge of all contests.  (At 3 years old - I am sure she can be bribed!)

~~I have disabled my code system for comments so that it is easier for you all to leave comments on my blog.  That code system is just totally crazy and WAY too hard. I'm trying to make it better and easier for you to leave your comments. I do now get some spam comments - but I just delete them - it's worth the trouble for me if it keeps you from having to type that silly code.~~








Next year's Woodland Nest list is forming NOW!!  If you are interested in securing a spot on the list - please email me for info.  The nesting will begin this fall - most likely late November. 












If you would like to share this contest with friends on your own blog - please leave me another comment here on this post telling me that you have done so.   (I'd be so grateful~)


 Everyone who shares this contest on their own blog will be entered in a separate contest to win this beautiful Anthropologie tea towel. 

 The embroidery work on these towels is always so beautiful! I am totally in love with them and I choose one of my very favorites to share with you!
~~~~~
About the photo shoot~~

 My sisters gave me this shiny new Radio Flyer wagon for Christmas!  It totally rocks and is the best gift ever!  When I do a photo shoot - it is an all day production!  I haul tons of crap, stuff,  very important props (LOL! ) all over our yard to set up for the photos.  (The neighbors all think that I am crazy!)




I love to use some of my favorite treasures in the pictures.  This beautiful garden doll was made by my friend Dorthe.  I absolutely treasure her!  She has a very special place of honor in my Sacred Yarn Room. 

The beautiful "nest" necklace was a gift to me from my dear friend Jan.  Wearing this necklace has become my own special way to welcome the long awaited spring. I love it so much~



The photos were taken a few weeks ago just as the spring daffodils were coming in to bloom.  There is a section in the back of our yard, close to the woods, where the gardener has planted hundreds of these beautiful flowers.  Over the years they have naturalized and in the early spring we are greeted with a field of bright yellow blooms- our first hint that spring is coming!
~~ 
There is a "changing of the yarns" here in the Sacred Yarn Room~  The various shades of greens are being gently set aside - and in their place are the mingled hues of golds, browns,reds. yellow, magenta, and orange.  You know what that means ~~ and so it begins! Work on the Harvest Nest has begun!
~~~
Next up-
The last of our island vacation photos.  I'll take you to wonderful beaches in Aruba and Curacao.  We'll also visit the floating market in Curacao - one of my favorite places to photograph.

Love,
Vicki

ps - I am working on a charity fundraiser that is near and dear to my heart. I can only say that this project has taken on a life of it's own and is becoming more amazing everyday. I'm not sure why God has chosen me for this incredible experience.  More to come about this later~

***This Contest is Now Closed ***

5/27 UPDATE -- THE WINNERS! 
#36 Retired Knitter is the winner of the nest
#62 Roses, Lace, and Brocante is the winner of the Anthropologie Tea Towel.  
Thanks to everyone who visited and entered - I am totally overwhelmed by your love of my little nests.  I love you all~~

Dear Vicki ~ You're amazing! Your nests are stunningly beautiful! And I don't know how you do all that you do! Unbelievable! I've purchased three of your nests and have so enjoyed my two of them, and I'm sure the bird lover I gifted the other one to loves hers.

I would love to be entered to win this one to give to another friend. I'm whispering some sweet nothings in Maddy Girl's ear, too, in case that works! :) Thanks for this chance!

SuZeQ said...

O M G ... you don't need our bluebonnets. You have your own glorious welcome spring flowers and they are delightful!

LOVE the red wagon - such a worthwhile gift and I know you'll get oodles and oodles use out of iti ... so much so that you'll probably wear out those wheels.

I just love how you tease your readers, too! Can't wait to see what you share with them about the "you-know-what-nests" ... gonna be devine, I just know it!

I better get cracking on those harvest nests now, huh?

Keep knitting, my friend. I love you!

Bonnie said...

I adore your nests...I've made a few felted nests but yours are works of art!!! I would love a chance to win!

Mereknits said...

Hooray, count me in. I think your nests are so special, everyone so unique and beautiful. Maybe I should take a lot more time with my photo shoots, I don't even edit my pictures, I think I am a lost cause.
Hugs to you,
Meredith

Neesie said...

Wow a little daunting being the first to comment but what exquisite nests. I have never seen anything like these before...so original.
The detail is incredible.
Apologies because it sounds like I'm grovelling to win one...well I suppose I am really so yes please I'd adore owning my own.
I also have a friend that collects disused nests and her collection are quite extensive...just wait till I show her these. She's going to go ballistic.
What would it take to bribe Maddy? Candy, a year supply of toys, a trip to Disneyland? ;D
I also really enjoyed seeing you set up the photo shoot. I thought I was the only one that neighbours give a tut with their eyebrows raised!
I'm keeping my fingers, toes, legs, arms and eyes crossed in the hope of being lucky Vicki ;D
Have a great week ~ Enjoy xox

My friend Amy sent me over....and when I got here I realized you & I have not been in contact because Blogger somehow messed with my Followers and dropped many of them ~ including you.
Long story short, now I'm back on your Follower list so I can keep up with your travels AND NESTS! I won some awesome chocolates once from one of your trips so I'll try again to see about winning one of your wonderful Nests. You are one ambitious and talented babe!
And the wagon to haul your 'stuff' is the perfect gift. You are using it well!
Good to see you again....I won't be a stranger. Please stop by to say hi, too!

Wow--you are Super Woman! Your nests, as always, are absolutely beautiful . . . I've always been crazy about wild birds, and we are blessed to have a lovely Scrub Jay couple tending a nest with a couple of babies that just hatched, right in our backyard! Can't wait to see them grow . . . we keep a respectful distance and don't disturb them, but the male loves to fly down and get a peanut from my hand when I offer it. Enjoy the beautiful Spring flowers and weather!

marda said...

Your photos are always beautiful..envious of all that yard space. LUV your little red wagon...I had one years ago. It had once been my boys' but I used it for hauling things too, especially my laundry basket when I hung our laundry on my wonderfully huge clotheslines. (Now neighborhood convenants would never allow such a thing!!! Admittedly the clothes dryer is way easier!)
The pictures in your previous post are just gorgeous, and so is that sweet little girl. Yes they grow up to fast, my "little" granddaughter is "7" today!!

Linda Kunsman said...
