Pick Your Prize Give-away

To celebrate the 1 year anniversary of Cul-De-Sac Shack, I'm having a give-away!  Yes, I have been secretly hording goodies from your eyes in preparation for this event.  With this give-away, I'm doing something a little different.  I'm letting you pick your prize!  I have four different prize lots below, each with unique and fun mid-century finds.

Here are the rules:  You must be a follower of Cul-de-sac Shack to enter (I do check to make sure you're a follower).  There are a few of you that follow through Google Reader and regularly leave comments, so that I know you are following.  You are welcome to enter as well.  To enter, leave a comment stating what your favorite prize lot is, also state what your second favorite prize lot it.  Why do I ask for your first and second favorite prize lots?  Well, if I get over 20 entries, I'm going to give away 2 prizes.  This way, if you are the second drawn and your first choice has been spoken for, you can still get a prize.  Leaving a comment will get you one entry.  You may get a second entry by posting about this on your blog.  Please leave a link to your blog in your comment, as I will check to make sure that you have posted about it.  (Teachers love rules :P).  I will use a random number generator to choose the winner.  Entries will be numbered in order of receipt.  If you are the first comment, you are entrant number 1 and so on.

Here are your prize choices:

1.  The Pretties

What's included:  Back row: Three pretty floral serving bowls manufacturer unmarked; Middle row: Fashion Two Twenty bath oil bottle (milk glass), two milk glass toothpick holder type things (like my precision of language?), two Haviland & Co. Limoges plates (Haviland, France), and a Porcelaines d'Are Limoges France footed cup; Front row: Korlis China "Exotique" plate (Made in Japan) and a pair of vintage navy blue gloves.

2.  Golden Glitz

What's included: Golden yellow table cloth with white printed design; "Parisian Prints" All Pure Linen "Calories" tea towel with original sticker; Yellow-gold divided bowl "Lane & Co (c) 1960, Van Nuys, Calif. U.S.A., 3000"; a clear glass "Gay Fad" tray with gold design; a smoke glass tray with gold design; and a small amber glass compote.

3.  Frankoma Feast

 

What's included: Frankoma stein and tray (the stein does have two chips, which I didn't notice until getting things together for this give-away - both can be seen in the picture above if you click on it and enlarge it); two small bean pots marked USA on the bottom, and three fun vintage Solo cup holders (for the old style coffee cup inserts).

4.  Linens and Things

What's included: Three vintage aprons, a bag of vintage gift ribbon, and numerous cards of vintage sewing notions.

Entry period ends at midnight Central Standard Time, Tuesday, September 28, 2010.  Good luck!

** Please note:  These items are vintage.  In the case of linens, I have not washed them.  I am leaving that up to the new owner.  They are in as found condition, all were used and well loved.  They may have a flaw or two.  That is part of their charm, in my opinion.  Also, these items come from a smoke-free home, but not a pet free home.  If there is an issue with these items sharing a home with my dogs Rosco and Chewy, you might not want to enter. **
