it's about time...

It's about time...
When I hit 400 followers I promised a giveaway...
As time passed I published my 100th post and thought I really want to do a giveaway...
I wanted to give away something different...
I found this gorgeous french inspired clock a few weeks ago while treasure hunting.  It was brown with a hint of bronze.  To lighten it up I gave it a coat of the new gray paint I am in love with.  After one coat it took on a beautiful blue~gray coloring and I thought to myself...Voila!  This beautiful clock will be perfect for my giveaway...
Of course I will add a few little surprises too!
If you would like to enter just leave me a comment on this post.
It is that simple.
All entries must be in by midnight on Sunday June 5th.
I will announce the winner on Monday June 6th.
Good luck!!

I am linking up with The French Cupboard for French Inspiration Thursday.  
Thank you for stopping by today!

    Hi Sandi: I was thinking about you yesterday wondering if you were near the tornados in Mass.

    That clock is gorgeous. Funny, I passed one up last week thrifting and now I'm mad. LOL Can you share the color paint you used? That is stunning! Love it.
