Sweetheart Valentine Giveaway...

Are you in the mood for a little Valentine's Day love? I hope so!!!
I'm hosting a Sweetheart Valentine Giveaway here at Brynwood.
The centerpiece of my giveaway is a wool pillow
(handmade by me) decorated with hearts and flowers.
(Well, what would you expect to embellish your Valentine?)
There are a lot more treasures I'm including in this giveaway...
A spiral-bound journal that says "To Imagine Is Everything"; a gift tag with sparkling paper tabs, and a clock-topped paper clip securing multiple 12" long Sari ribbons by Louisa Harding from my yarn stash; a cluster of red roses; two bejeweled frames that also double as ornaments; and heart-shaped, red buttons...
There's also a sweet pink and gold-tone lapel pin (also made by me) that has the words "My heart beats for you", and it's embellished with a gold-tone wire heart and sparkling beads...
I've added two skeins of Caron Wildflowers fiber in shades of red; two fat quarters of Valentine-themed fabrics (hearts and candy!); and finished with red rick rack and red and white twine.

It's really easy to enter this drawing...
This giveaway is only for my followers, so leave a comment if you publicly follow me for 1 entry.
Leave a SEPARATE comment on this post if you write or post a link to my giveaway on your blog for a 2nd entry
• You don't need to have your own blog to enter, but please be sure that you leave a way for me to contact you in the event your name is drawn.
Only comments left on this post will count.
I will draw the winner (by Random Number Generator) at midnight on February 13th and announce the winner on Valentine's Day.

Here's a button you can use for your sidebar to create a link back to this post. You're free to use any or all of the large photos if you write a post about my giveaway.

Oh, and so you don't think this is all the love I'll be sending to one lucky winner, I'll add a few other treasures between now and the 13th. I hope you'll check back to see what else the winner will receive. I just love giveaways, and I hope you'll agree that Valentine's Day will be a sweet treat for one lucky friend. Won't you be my Valentine?
