Giveaway time!

Yay, its time for another giveaway and this time its for no reason at all, other than all you wonderful readers being just that - wonderful readers. As we say in India, "simply because"......


So, here's what is up for grabs: 2 absolutely lovely pillow covers, 17" x 17" in size, from Saffron Marigold




Some of you may be familiar with SM, but for those who are not, it is a California based company fully committed to the revival of the traditional art of block printing in India, run by Anisha and Sandip. All their linens are printed on superior grade cotton with high quality dyes. They are stunning....trust me I know because I have them!!!! 


Here is a sampling of some of their cushions to whet your appetite and get the juices flowing!


The Moroccan inspired Sultan's Palace. Now who among us does not like anything "Moroccan"? I thought as much, no one!
The Peacock inspired Dance O Peacock.
One of my absolute favorites - Maharaja!
For you lotus lovers - Midnight Lotus. 
And their newest launch - the very French, very summery, La Chasse Aux Papillons


This is just some of their prints. Check out their website for the entire breathtaking collection to decide which print you want when you win!


So, here is what you have to do:


1. Leave a comment letting me know which print you would like if you won, including the url/link to that product, please. 
2. Blog, tweet, post about this giveaway, leave me a comment that you did as well as the link to the post and you get a second entry.
3. And if you want a third entry, (and for slightly selfish reasons) - go to my S & S Facebook page and click on "Like", and leave a comment saying you did.


The giveaway ends the 9th of September, and is open to residents of US and Canada. Yes, Canada is also included on popular demand. (Indian residents I will have one for you later this year, I promise.)


So in 2 weeks, I will pick a winner using random.org and announce the winning name on the 10th of September, so make sure you check back to see if you have won. I will then request your e mail and contact info accordingly.


All the best! Let the games begin.....
