If You Are a Dreamer...Come In ***Giveaway!***

"If you are a dreamer come in
If you are a dreamer a wisher a liar
A hoper a pray-er a magic-bean-buyer
If you're a pretender come sit by my fire
For we have some flax golden tales to spin
Come in!
Come in!"
- Shel Silverstein

I have always adored all things magical, dream-like, and wonderful! I like things that are born of true imagination. I get lost in the fairy tales, the glitter, the sparkle, and the wonder of it all. Which is exactly why I was absolutely thrilled to win this amazing collection from Jill at Figment Studios! Wow! The wonder and magic that you will find is simply stunning! A journey into all that makes one dream, wish, hope, and imagine! Jill's products carry you away and surround you with shimmering fairy dust! Let me share with you what I received!

First of all, everything comes boxed in these amazing boxes! I am a big one for fantastic packaging and this certainly fits the bill!

And, this...my new and fabulous friend!

Let me tell you about the moment I saw him for the first time....(this was the comment that I left on the blog that was doing the giveaway!)

“Alas, this sweet, sweet journey has come to an end. For I, you see, have reached the destination for which I set out. A surprise to find that a princess such as myself should find love in such a humble critter, but my heart is drawn to this fine sir nonetheless. His coloring is not quite that of the droves of princes who have bowed at the stoop of my father’s house. He seems not to have come from the power and wealth from which those wretched suitors were bred and he seems not to crave all that my father has, but rather, his eyes and his heart have set themselves upon me like the sunbeams upon the shining waters on a fine June afternoon. My love he has captured with simply a glance. My heart belongs to this… this… frog.

Why! What is this upon his sweet, small head? ‘Tis none other than a tiny crown gilded with the finest gold and set with beautiful gems. Whereupon would a frog have come to possess such a treasure? Oh, my sweet love! Why do you gaze at me so! Yes, you are my true love. *kiss*

HARK! My sweet love has transformed from the tiny green amphibian which I had held in my hand to the most stunning of all Princes in the land! Oh, yes! We shall truly live happily ever after! And, as a symbol of our sweet tale of Princess and frog, we shall keep this beautiful pen holder in the form of my Prince’s former self!”

Isn't he just magical? I do so adore him! He sits sweetly beside me as I scrapbook!

My favorite item from their shop is the inkwells, but since you mentioned them above I guess I'll say my other favorite is the ostrich pens, especially the black one!

As nice as the clean lines of the Classic Feather pen you pictured are, I must admit I have a soft spot for the "messy" look of the black and grey Ostrich Feather Pens. Of course, I'd never get any writing done with them at all; I own a cat :-P

Carapace said...

My very favorite is honestly the Once Upon a Time journal. What better opening could any journal have? I love the simple elegance of the design and statement, too.

I use a journal every day, to compensate for some memeory issues; so I'd fill it up quick! And I'd love to look back on the story.

All of these designs is amazing, My favorite would be the frog prince gift set. I'm having my first boy in October and I'm doing his room in frog prince, and this would be perfect. Thanks, Godesseablu@msn.com

My favorite item from the site is probably the journal with the faerie godmother on it. I have very nontraditional grandmothers and I love the idea of a little old woman with white hair watching over me. I alsolove the little trinket box pictured in your post with "once upon a time" inscribed on it. That would be perfect on my desk at work. I feel like mo co-workers come into my office for a little scape and this would only add to that ambiance.
Thanks for sponsoring such an adorable and unique giveaway.
Keep up the great work!!
