Open Call for “Come to the Cottage”

WooHoo!! Today is the day :)
keyboard In July I’m going to welcome a gaggle of bloggers to come help me makeover two rooms in three days. These wonderful women include Angie @ The Country Chic Cottage, Lisa at The Pennington Point, Polly @ Make Mine Beautiful and Cha Cha at Sit Relax and Read. We’re all getting together for a lot of laughs & makeover magic. Lala and Bre are SO excited to get their rooms made over – and you can help!

One lucky reader will win a trip to join us! To enter, write a post on your blog about why you want to come. Everyone has some kind of talent – what’s yours? Can you paint – sew – build? I wanna know all about your mad DIY skillz! It would also be nice to know what area of the country you are in (state or area would be specific enough).Bunting Pillow Cover 7 What are the arrangements? I will pay for airfare (or reimburse gas) for one reader to come to the cottage. The winner will be invited to stay in my little guest cottage. And since I’m a southern girl, be assured that there will be lots of yummy food, too!

The makeovers will take place on July 21-23. Please make sure that you can be here for the dates of July 20-24 (arriving the day before and leaving the day after).

Although I hate to limit this contest, because I’d love to fly someone in from anywhere in the world, the entries are limited to the 48 states.

The winner will be chosen through a panel of all the bloggers slated to join us.

Are you ready? The auditions will be open through May 30th –
and the winners will be announced on June 13th.

If you do not have a blog, I've got you covered! Please email me your submissions & I will put them onto a blog I have set up for this contest. I will also put the post into the link party for you!

This link party is for Come to the Cottage auditions only! If you have a craft/decorating project, I'd love for you to come back and join us on Transformation Thursday.

Well……. Let’er rip, tater chip!

  8. Good luck to all the entries. Wish I could enter, but my schedule definitely wouldn't allow for leaving during that time. But can't wait to see what you guys accomplish during the remodeling!
