At first I thought I'd do a little Halloween giveaway to celebrate my 200th bloggiversary (I think that's what they call it?)....After all, I'm a Halloween artist, right? But then I noticed my next post would fall directly on Valentine's Day. Soooooooo, since I had some little heart shaped boxes...
And all this pink paint....
I thought I'd return a bit of the love to the people who collect my work. :)
I know, I know, by the time I do the drawing, Valentine's Day will have passed...But I think these little guys could be left out all year, don't you?
I think they're so sweet with sparkles on the outside and polka dotted goodness on the inside....
If you've purchased work from me in the last two months, you'll be automatically entered in the drawing. And if you've purchased work and leave a comment here, you'll be entered twice! If you haven't purchased recently, but have in the past, or have even placed an eBay bid on my work, you can enter too - just leave a comment. The rest of you can leave comments too, but this time around the giveaway is strictly for collectors. :)
In one week, on Saturday, Feb 21st, I'll draw three names. The first name drawn will have their choice of the three boxes, the second name drawn may select from the remaining two and the third name drawn will receive the remaining box.
I'll even throw in some of these candy conversation hearts...I read in the news the Necco company is thinking of updating some of the old messages...But I kinda like the old ones, hehe...
My own Valentine's Day will be spent - are you ready for this, it's just soooooooooo romantic......
DEALING WITH A ROOFER.
Yep. You may have read about the high winds Pennsylvania has been experiencing the last few days. Well, there's been a serious battle between said winds and our old metal roof, and I'm afraid the roof lost. Thank heaven for homeowner's insurance, and BOO HISS for deductibles, *sigh*.....
We had hoped to go see Coraline today, and still may if the roofing guy shows up early. Either way, John and I will have a nice, romantic dinner at home tonight, and at the very least we'll rent a movie and toast our almost 30 years together. ;)
So Happy Valentine's Day!!
However you're spending it, whether you're single or part of a duo, I hope it's filled with magic and bliss....Do something fun and spread the love....
Until next time,
♥ Carolee

Hi Carolee...I'd love to be included in your drawing. I am the fortunate owner of your "jazz cats" CD cabinet, a fabulous witches dance stool, a wonderful full moon wall hanging with cats and mice dancing about it and a precious little tray. It's been some years since these purchases, but I cherish each one and love those sweet heart boxes. Anyway, I hope all has gone well with the roofers. We had to put a new roof on this past summer
Love these boxes Carolee, and I am sorry about your roof. We lost part of ours to a tornado in May, so I understand the deductible ---pffftt!!
Laurie
Ah love the kitty boxes. Your work amazes me. I am hoping maybe you might do a clay project for each holiday. I loved the kitty with the heart. Many have seen the painting you did of All Cats Go To Heaven. They just love it as we do.

Happy day! I treasure my sign and box I have been lucky enough to win on ebay. Thank you for sharing your work with us.
Bright Blessings, Jann
Hi Carolee, I found you on the One World One Heart blog. I love your fabulous work and had to see if I could get something of yours. Try as I might(1318lois on eBay), it wasn't in the stars to win your wonderful "Cafe Chat Noir" folk art painting :(
I have two kitties...a black one and a calico and my first baby (an Abyssinian/tabby) was with me for 21 years...needless to say I love cats! It would be amazing if I were lucky enough to win one of your gorgeous cat heart boxes!
Congrats on your 200th blog post.
