:-: A January Give-Away! :-:

This give-away is for the lavender sachet and vintage labels and ribbon below. You can enter for a chance to win them (scroll down for details).

Ce cadeau est composé d'un petit coussin de lavande, d'étiquettes et de rubans anciens. Vous pouvez participer au tirage au sort (voir ci-dessous comment).

The lavender sachet is based on a pattern from the book Denyse Schmidt Quilts. It's made from vintage French fabric and ribbon and is filled with organic lavender. The little ribbon tag has the letters VO, for version originale.

Ce petit coussin de lavande a été conçu à partir d'un modèle provenant du livre Denyse Schmidt Quilts. Il est composé d'anciens tissus et rubans et est rempli de lavande bio. La petite étiquette a l'inscription VO comme version originale.

It could also be used as a pin cushion, giving a nice scent of lavender each time a pin is inserted or removed. It measures 4.5 inches by 4.5 inches. The back is made from pink and white floral fabric.

Il peut aussi être utilisé comme pique-épingles, donnant un parfum agréable à chaque ajout ou retrait d'une épingle. Il mesure 11,5 cm par 11,5 cm. Le dos est fait à partir d'un tissu fleuri blanc et rose.

Included in the give-away are 10 vintage labels and old monogrammed ribbon from France. Some examples of how the ribbon can be used are here and here.

42
, as in 1942.
42, as in 42 years old.
42, as in 42, avenue des Champs-Elysées.
(just a few ideas)

BB, as in bébé, the French word for baby.
(in French, bébé and BB sound alike)
BB, as in Brigitte Bardot.
Or, just two pretty B's side by side.

Inclus dans le cadeau, il y a 10 étiquettes anciennes et un ruban ancien monogrammé. Des exemples se trouvent ci-dessus de comment utiliser le ruban ancien.
