To celebrate this special month, I'm going to "give" something special to one lucky reader. If you've been following my blog for awhile, you know I love to give stuff away. Sometimes it's something special I pick up in my shopping adventures, sometimes it is a collection of some of my favorite things and once it was something I made (a barkcloth pillow). This time I thought I would share some of my favorite things. Here is just a sampling of what I will be giving away to one lucky winner.
Bag of miscellaneous millinery flowers, scrappy pack of vintage wallpaper (great for collages), bingo cards, mini wallpaper clipboard and a vintage hankie lavender sachet. Just to keep some of it a surprise, I will also be including some of my other favorite things (not telling).
To win the giveaway, simply leave a comment on this post, and to make it interesting, tell me one thing you love about July. I will draw a winner first thing in the morning of Thursday, July 30th.

The thing I love best about July is most people are on Vacation, and all the streets become that much less congested it is such a strange calm feeling, at least in my suburb. Count me in And a Very Happy Birthday!
Hugs, Diane

July usually means finally sunshine in Oregon. I am a California girl and I usually love the sun, just not the humidity.

Birthday and Blog felicitations! I usually love July because it was the month my first child was born - but THIS July is even better as I just retired this year from teaching and for the first time I'm not counting how few days I have left before I have to go back to school! Love your site and I love roses too! hugs, Wanda
How nice of you to give away things for your birthday! My favorite thing about July is the long days. I get so starved for daylight during NY winters. Thanks for the chance to win!
My favorite part of July is Independence Day--what it commemorates and all the activity that comes with the celebration! This is a fun idea for a giveaway; thanks for the opportunity :)

Happy Brithday and blogiversary to you!
What a great giveaway...so generous of you! In addition to the 4th of July, I love getting to gether with family and friends and BBQ'ing.
July is an almost perfect month where we live.June is usually still pretty chilly.
Farmers markets,evenings out back on the patio watching birds and our pond fish,suppers outside and much more.
Happy Birthday to you and maybe my new little grandson if he makes his appearance this month.
what a wonderful giveaway...you have most of my favorites in there too...one thing i love about july is that is when we go to see my family in tennessee {we actually went early this year for various reasons}, i only see my sister once a year, so that trip is very special to me!!!
Happy Blogiversary! I love sitting outside in the evenings in the warm weather, pefect end to the day! Erin
Congratulations!! I hate to say it, but right now my favorite thing about July is that it means school is almost in session. I am wore out. :)
I love spending the 4th of July at my father-in-law's house. The sons, spouses, children and grandchildren gather on the covered deck. The sons do the cooking out, and the spouses bring home made goodies as well as fresh tomatoes from the garden.
By the way, my father-in-law will be 90 years young in December!
Happy Blogiversary
I love holidays and the 4th of July was my Dad's birthday. He will be gone 11 yrs. in August. He would have been 83 this past 4th. I miss him very much but know that I will see him again by and by.

OH My.... I hope you pick ME!... I have been admiring your clip boards since you did your new header on your blog page. Simply sweet and yet elegant at the same time. Ihope you continue to enjoy your favorite month there is only a handful of days left ;)
I love July because I always knew as a kid that the 4th meant homemade ice cream at my Grandmas. My Grandma and all her friends would line up all the ice cream makers on the driveway as we sat with our towels layed out and waited to get our bowl of deliciousnessssss!!! oh what fun memories :)

I love July because I am a teacher and it is the one month that I have totally to myself to travel and create and relax. All your goodies look lovely - please add my name to your drawing.
Happy birthday/blogday! My favorite thing about THIS July is that on the 31st, I will be moving out of a duplex in the city and to a wonderful old farmhouse in the country. :)

Happy blogiversary! I enjoy your blog and your adventures! I love the smell of campfires in July. I live near a lake which is a vacation destination for a lot of people so there is a lot of camping here in the summer. Campfires=camping=hot dogs cooking=marshmellow roasts!
Oh yea:)Thanks for the giveaway.
OOO what fun! Congrats on your blogiversary and Happy Birthday! I love 4th of July, backyard barbecues, and camping in July.
Happy two year blogiversary Lisa! Yours was one of the first blogs I started reading and I haven't stopped! Summer is my favorite of the four seasons so July is a favorite month, full of BBQ's, swimming with the little ones in their wading pools and time at the cabin.
Happy Birthday and Blogiversary! Wow, that's a mouthful. I love July because the weather is always so nice here in Eugene, however, right now I could do without the 100+ heat we are having. Congratulations again, Debbie
hmmm... what i love about july... playing in the sprinkler with my daughters on those hot july days. sitting on the porch swing late in the evening just visiting... in july it is still light out and warm...
thank you for your blog! you find and repurpose such fabulous treasures. my grandma lives in oregon and next time i go i am definitely finding your booth! (and isabel's too!)
happy tuesday!
What I love best about July is the 4th. For many years, we attended the world's largest Salmon BBQ in Fort Bragg, California on the holiday weekend, and the festivities included fireworks, which I seldom get to see. I am as enthralled as a child when I am watching fireworks.
i love july because we get to eat lots of lovely fresh fruit and veg from the garden.
happy blogivesary

Fabulous blog-----love your very inspirational ideas! What do I love about July? I have summers off so time for: crafting, fluffing the house, sewing, sandy toes at the beach, boating on the lake, getting thrown off when tubing!, long walks in the evening breeze, vacation with the extended family, yummy fruits and veggies from farmers market, gardening, and visits to old friends!

My July favorite things are the birds singing in the morning, the flowers blooming, the bees buzzing and all the veggies from the garden.
