I’m going to make this short and sweet…it’s June 1st! That means another “My Favorite Things” post. Most of you are familiar with this post that I share on the 1st of every month, but for those that are new around here…I share a box of “my favorite things” that I am loving and offer my subscribers a chance to win the box. Rules are easy…You have to have a US address, be a subscriber to my blog, and comment on this post! I will pick my winner in a week.
What’s fun about this month is that I am going to have a “surprise” item. So I am sharing two of the items below and the last one I plan to pick up while I’m at the Country Living Fair this weekend. It just has to be small enough to fit in the box, but other than that it will be a total surprise to the winner. I can’t wait!
The First item is this AMAZING Lavender Candle from Antique Candle Works. I love their beautiful packaging and amazing scents. Of course Lavender is always my favorite so I had to go with it! Thank you so much to the Antique Candle Works company for sending this candle out for this month’s giveaway.
The second item is this dish towel from The Hearth and Hand line at Target. I am loving all things yellow right now…so I was on a mission to find something yellow to add to the box. I just think it’s the perfect touch of sunshine for the summer months.
So, be sure to comment below and I’ll be browsing all weekend at the CL Fair for that perfect last item. Be sure to watch IG as I’ll be sharing tons of my stories from the fair. Maybe I’ll even share some options for the box.

This looks beautiful! I’m obsessed with yellow lately, and love lavender! Thank you for the opportunity to win. ?
I love yellow too and surprises. This is my birthday month too.
Your blog is fun to read…thanks for keeping it “real” and relatable!
I love yellow and surprises.
My kitchen is green and yellow…and for the longest time yellow was hard to find. Now it’s everywhere. So I’m loving the yellow towel. 🙂
Love Hearth and Hand and your blog!
I’ve been wanting to try their candles & lavender is one of my favorite scents. Enjoy your time at the Fair…looks like a fun event!
Would love to win this. Love candles and the color yellow on the towel is one of my accent colors. Tbanks for the chance to win!

Love the scent of lavender. Can’t wait for the surprise reveal. You always keep it interesting.
Thanks ?
I can’t wait to see what the “secret” item is from the CL Fair… I was there & there were soooooo many great things to pick from??? I enjoyed your workshop & you blew my mind on the white kitchen trend no longer a trend?. I did watch a design show today & was happy to recognize sone of the new trends you spoke of. So happy again to meet you at the fair & becoming a new follower of your blog❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Loriann! I’m so excited to have you following along!
Thank you for the giveaway! I love the scent of lavender hugs,
Fabulous! Lavender candles always smell wonderful and the yellow towel reminds me of the summer sunshine. Thank you for your thoughtfulness…I can’t wait to find out your special find for the 3rd item. How fun!!
Definitely my favorite scent, lavender. I am enjoying your blog. Thanks for the fun giveaway.
Lavender the quintessential summer scent to fill the house with love. Victorians used it to soothe and calm the day. And a yellow cheery dish towel to brighten the kitchen. The two make a perfect pair.
Thanks for the chance to win! It’ll be fun to see what you picked as the surprise!
Thank you for the giveaway!
I love your DIY ideas! I’m going to redo my table. Love the lavender candle. ?
Oh I love what you picked for this months box!
I know you will find some great stuff at the CL fair!
I go to the one here in Atlanta in October.
Thanks for the opportunity to win!
How awesome Sharon! I was there last year in Atlanta and spoke at the Fair on their Main Stage.
Oh a lavender candle. I can almost smell it from here! Enjoy the weekend.
The Country Living Fair sounds like lots of fun, just like your monthly gift box. Can’t wait to hear how the fair was. I am jealous.
Lavender smells so pretty !! On the hunt for a faux lavender medium size potted plant.
AND One can NEVER have to many dish towels… I change them up ALL the time. I am teased
cuz my sponges match the towels of the season. I have been TRYING to be green and using
Grove Products, San Francisco area. They have white sponges !! take care…?
Great items! I love yellow in my kitchen, such a happy color. Thanks for the giveaway!
Lavender is the most smoothing scent there is to relax and unwind
Love your blog and lavender…Thank you for chance at this giveaway !
Lavender my favorite flower, color and simplicity of it.
Happy Sunday!
I love yellow and surprises. This is the start of my birthday month.
Thank you for your generosity! I love yellow too…such a happy color.
It’s like a box of Cracker Jack’s … who can forget
the thrill of opening the box to find the surprise inside?
Yay, I love surprises!
I have lavender growing all over in my garden,
it’s my favorite scent!
Love your blog. Having so much fun watching what you are doing with the RV. I love surprises too❤️❤️
Love lavender and yellow! Is there a better combo than that?!
Oh, I love surprises! And the scent of lavender, and yellow!
So exciting , waiting to see the third item. The first two are beautiful.
You’ve created such a nice monthly give away. Thank you for this…and all of the wonderful goodies!
I’m loving the giveaway. My daughter is getting married and moving to her new house. These items would be perfect to help make her house her “home”.
Candles are my love! Your pictures are always so clean looking and beautiful!
Great idea for a surprise item surprises are always fun. Have fun at the fair!
Blessings

Everyone loves freebies and give a ways! So fun ?
Thanks!
These items are so cute..and I bet the candle smells amazing. Lavender is always good for the nightstand. Hope you have fun at the Country Living Fair. Cant wait to see what you find!
Lavender candle sounds amazing!
I can make good use of both the items you mentioned in your blog. Candles are a favorite of mine and a new dish towel would be lovely. Our kitchen needs a few changes, perhaps lot of the kitchen needs to be replaced, okay, our kitchen is the original and as such needs to be gutted. It will be a while before that happens and a new kitchen towel would be an encouragement. (It doesn’t take much!) Thank you for imparting your knowledge and appreciation of such beautiful items.
Love, love, love lavender!
I love your blogs and surprises. I am moving to a new house in a new city and yellow would look great in my new house. Thanks for being you!
What a great selection! Can’t wait to see what surprise you come up with.
You’re my first blog I’ve followed. Perfect timing being that we have the new house and I’m trying to figure out my style as I’ve always rented I’ve had to work with what I had rather than being able to just change what I wanted. Definitely loving the simplistic and elegant vision you have. Look forward to your emails and hope you have fun this weekend!
Would love to try one of the Antique Candle Works candles and could always use a little sunshine in the kitchen. Our weather has been so dreary here on the East Coast =(
Thanks so much for sharing all of you wonderful finds with us here on ur blog
You are a real inspiration to those of us who are a bit design challenged. I hope you found a few treasures for your new home at the Fair. Thanks for the opportunity to bring home a few of your “favorites.”
