Our First Birthday With A Giveaway To Celebrate!

We're celebrating our first birthday here at Elizabeth & Co.!

It's been a whirlwind year - fun, exciting and sometimes exhausting! I started the blog in conjunction with teaming up with the girls to host occasional vintage tag sales. The blog would be my way to document our little adventure and share some of our furniture painting projects. It started almost by accident. Megan was visiting and we were in the kitchen chatting about the possibility of a blog and getting ready for a cookout. Next thing I knew she was on the computer and we had a blog. I had no idea what I was getting myself into! But somewhere along the way, the blog became so much more personal for me and that's because of the connections I'm made in the last year. I've learned from and been inspired by so many talented bloggers. You have been so incredibly generous! And I am so appreciative of our fabulous followers. A huge thank you to each and every one of you who takes the time to visit and leave such sweet and supportive comments. We couldn't do this without all of you!

So of course we need a giveaway to say thank you for being here! I recently received this beautiful custom made sign by the talented Andrea from Signs by Andrea. I love it! We live in Maryland and the Chesapeake Bay is an important part of the life and ecomomy here.

Andrea has generously offered a free personalized sign to one lucky Elizabeth & Co. follower. The sign will be valued at up to $50, chosen from the standard designs. *USA shipping only.



Andrea's signs are painted on weathered wood and have a fabulous vintage feel.


Each sign is a one-of-a-kind treasure.


Wouldn't this make the perfect wedding gift?



And I promised you cupcakes, right? So in addition to the sign, the winner will also receive a copy of Betty Crocker's The Big Book of Cupcakes, two packages of cupcake baking cups and some cute little sprinkles.





And six additional winners will receive a set of the cupcake baking cups and sprinkles. That's a total of seven winners! Why seven? Because we just reached 700 followers and we're pretty excited about that! I wish we could throw a birthday party, but at least I'll know that some of you will be eating cupcakes!






*To enter the giveaway, just visit Signs by Andrea and come back and leave a comment telling me which sign is your favorite. As an added bonus, Andrea is offering $5 off any sign ordered through the giveaway period and for one additional week after the winner is announced. Use code E&Co5OFF in the comment section of the order form. All seven winners will be announced on the first day of summer, June 21st! The giveaway is open to all followers, old and new!


Thank you again for being here!
