A Vintage Infused Giveaway...

Did you work out this morning?

I did, and I thought of you!  

We are heading to our beloved vacation destination of choice (stateside) this summer... Door County and we'll be doing a lot of big riding with the kids (And those trailer, bike attachment thingies... they'll see us a-coming!  I promise we will refrain from wearing matching outfits a-la-VonTrapps!). 

 I realized I hand't been on my bike in years!  Boy - my thighs realized that too as I rode up my first hill!

Anyhoo.

I have the wonderful opportunity to "meet" the most interesting people via this blog and Parisienne Farmgirl Magazine and I am totally in love with one of the magazine's newest advertisers and I think you are going to love her too!

Her name is Vanessa Harris and she has just launched "Vintage Infused"!

First of all -

How cool is THAT NAME!?

Here is what Vanessa has to say about her gorgeous, new, online boutique...

"I am so pleased to offer you a unique upscale hybrid Boutique to tempt many appetites.  For nearly 15 years I have been in the luxury Spa Industry.  I have had the pleasure of opening 5 Resort/Boutique spas where I gained the knowledge and now possess the ability to find authentic, natural quality goods from all around the world.  You will also find a select group of artisans whom I have hand chosen to show their designs here with us at Vintage Infused.  I am excited to bring my experience to you through tactile Boutique items we all search for in the hay stack.  I hope you are barefoot and cozy in the comfort of your home and ready to indulge in unique organic findings from me to you!"

I could not stop looking around...

Here are some the treasures that intrigued me!

Her items are carefully selected and of a refreshing variety... truly infused with vintage.  

You know how much I love blue and white (I mean, come on... look at my kitchen!) and so I about flipped when I made my way to her blue and white dishes page...

And then I found these little babies...

As the mother of two little Imelda Marcos' I am swooning over these hand made baby shoes!  And I am beyond thrilled to announce that Vanessa has offered to give a pair to one lucky blessed Parisienne Farmgirl reader!  

Here is how to enter this giveaway...

(when you check out make a "note to seller" that you are a PF reader)

"I wanted the smell of Country Air that was "ever so slight"..."no heavy perfumes" I said when trying to find the right scent & Lori (owner of Hunny B) brought me Egyptian Sheets.  It was meant for Vintage Infused and has found its home!  We packaged it just the way I would want a candle in my home to look...like nothing else out there.  I did not want a label on the candle, just the packaging so once you un-wrapped it you could simply blend it into your decor & you could smell soft notes of what "home" smells like." - Vanessa

Ingredients: 100% Natural Soy, Cotton Wick
10oz Candle.  As a general rule you should expect 6.5 hours per ounce of wax.

So... go on!  Go check Vintage Infused out!  The winner's shoes will be custom made within 7 days by artisan (and darling Momma!) Joni LeBaron

This is the pair you will win!

May I humbly ask you to remember girls...

As our minds are turning to Memorial Day... that supporting these new companies like Vintage Infused, Parisienne Farmgirl Magazine and the rest of our advertisers is something to be proud of!  We've fought long and hard in this country to have these great freedoms... we mustn't take it for granted that we women can take an inspired idea and create a business that employees people and gives others hope and inspiration!  

It is truly incredible!

Every time you support a small online or local business you are blessing others!

Bonne Chance!
