our little giveaway

we hope you all had a lovely weekend. it's a beautiful sunny monday morning here in devon and, as promised on friday, here are the details of our little giveaway. we thought it would be a nice way to celebrate our new journal & to say thankyou to all of you that follow us and take the time to comment on our posts, by hosting a little giveaway.

we have chosen our leaf lanterns (not sure how many we are going to give away yet, perhaps we'll see what response we get). so many of you featured our lanterns on your own blogs this xmas and seemed to fall in love with them, so we thought they would be the perfect giveaway prize to say thanks.

we make our leaf lanterns using plant fibre & skeleton leaves and each comes in a little box with a tea-light & care instructions. they look lovely in natural daylight and, when lit, have a warm golden glow. there are more details & images of the lanterns on our website {link}.




to be in with a chance of winning one of our leaf lanterns, please visit our website pachadesign {link} and tell us on this post your favourite piece from our furniture or accessories range - and don't forget to leave your email address too please. if you are on our followers list (on this new blog) you will get an extra chance of winning - to follow us simply add this blog address to your reading list on your blogger dashboard or click the follow button on the sidebar of this blog.

we'll let you know the winners in about 2 weeks time (either the 22nd or 23rd march) - good luck & feel free to let your own readers know about our little giveaway if you wish.
