I can not believe this marks my first year of blogging. When I started this I was not sure how long it would last. Hopefully this past year my blog has brought you many useful ideas and recipes that you have shared with your own family and friends.
Please continue to pass along my blog to your friends that might be interested.
In celebration of this anniversary I am giving away 2 handmade woven Headbands. One for your daughter or yourself and one for her American Girl doll!!
Simply comment about your favorite Close To Home recipe or idea by Tuesday, April 27th at 8:00pm EST. Be sure to log into your google account or leave a valid email address. I will use Random.org to pick the winner!!
Good Luck.

Happy bloggiversary! I found you from skip to my lou. My dd loves headbands and these look like the nice gentle ones that don’t squeeze her head! I look forward to looking through your recipes…I’m always looking for something to add to our dinner table.
You have a great blog. I love the bracelets, very imaginative. Pamela
Emily T What a great year of blog you’ve presented. I’m thoroughly impressed!
I thought the burp cloths you jazzed up with ribbon and rickrack were great ideas and different from the flannel down the center standard I’ve seen all over the web. THanks for the classy look!
LOVED your Valentines with recycled crayons. Congrats on your anniversary of blogging. I would love a headband!
Congratulations and happy blogiversary! I have loved (and been able to use) many, many, many of your ideas and recipes! In particular – and most recently – your no-bake chocolate oat bars. Keep on blogging!!!!!
PS – No American Girl dolls here, and don’t feel like you have to put me in your drawing – just wanted to pass along heartfelt congratulations and for you to know we’re out here reading!
Well, Happy Blogiversary! I have found blogging, and all the friends I’ve made here in Blogland, to be great blessings to me!.. It has been a pleasure stopping by your place to see the wonderful recycling/crafty ideas you have, and recipes are always fun too! I love the gift jars that include the ingredients and a recipe!!!.. And I loved the hot cocoa cone idea too, which was so CUTE!.. As for your giveaway, I have long hair, and I love dolls! I don’t own an American Girl Doll, but I DO have an “Our Generation” doll, which is pretty close! I found her, a mess, in a rummage sale, and fixed her up to be pretty again! I love her, and I’ve displayed her proudly ever since!.. So please do count me in for your drawing! Hope you’re enjoying your weekend! ~tina
