One World, one Heart!

This year I am participating in One World One Heart.

Quoting Lisa from One World One Heart
One World One Heart is a worldwide event for bloggers only. It gives all those who blog a chance to meet and mingle and form connections with those they may not have otherwise met from all over the world. In the past 4 years this event has grown to over 1,000 participants with lasting friendships (and even one love connection) formed along the way. Think of it as a GIGANTIC open house allowing you to travel without ever leaving your home........going from blog to blog(in various countries) seeing the wonder each one has created and meeting all the fabulous people behind those blogs. As a bonus each blogger participant will offer up a "door prize or prizes"....just for dropping by, saying hello and seeing their world. It's really that easy.

Logo2011small


For the people coming here from One World One Heart and don't know me. I am a 47 year old Dutch, living in Israel on a kibbutz, mother of five and cat lover. I love art, traditional but also 3D, crafting, scrapping, vintage and antiques, books, interior design (shabby chic, Scandinavian, English cottage, French), nature, history and tons more :)
This are my door prizes! (Second Prize added when I reached 100 comments.)


First prize
I tried to give you something representing "me" as I described above. Something artsy, something vintage, something nature, something from my country, something creative etc. so I came up with this: A box, filled with treasures!

  • A hand painted rose by me; canvas is 6x8 inch;
  • a vintage hanky with flowers and lace;
  • a piece of eco rose soap from Cnaan, Israel; Cnaan handmade organic soaps - bathe with nature to utilize what mother nature has given us, using pure aromatherapy essential oils for therapeutic benefits, no synthetic materials or chemicals, no SLS, just the pure and natural goodness of the earth for your skin. The process Cnaan uses retains all the natural glycerin that helps to moisturize your skin without leaving your body feeling dry and itchy. I am giving you one piece of Cnaan  handmade therapeutic organic soap (rose for dry skin);
  • a hamsa doorhanger with the Hebrew verse, Shema Israel on it ("Hear, O Israel! The Lord is our God! The Lord is One!");
  • a little organza bag with a hamsa charm, with inside a mini book of the Psalms of David;
  • a little bag of hamsa charms for your projects;
  • two cards with vintage buttons;
  • a set of 4 shabby handwriting coasters made by me;
















Second Prize
  • A hand painted canvas  by me; canvas is 8x8 inch;
  • a piece of eco lavender eucalyptus soap from Cnaan, Israel; Cnaan handmade organic soaps - bathe with nature to utilize what mother nature has given us, using pure aromatherapy essential oils for therapeutic benefits, no synthetic materials or chemicals, no SLS, just the pure and natural goodness of the earth for your skin. The process Cnaan uses retains all the natural glycerin that helps to moisturize your skin without leaving your body feeling dry and itchy. I am giving you one piece of Cnaan  handmade therapeutic organic soap (lavender eucalyptus);
  • a little bag of hamsa charms for your projects;

 


I hope you like what I have put together!
Just leave a comment under this post,  to enter the drawing. You don't need to follow or do anything else, but you need to have a blog (that is one of the rules of the organizer). I will ship worldwide. Be sure there is a way for me to contact you if you win!
You have time to enter from Jan 30th. The winner will be announced on Feb 17th. 
Edit 1: 
I am closing the give away at 12:00 midday Feb 17th local time ( GMT + 2:00)
Winners will be announced tonight, Feb 17th. 
Parcels will be shipped Sunday Feb 20th.

Dearest Elsina,
What a gorgeous name you possess!
It's interesting to know you are on a Kibbutz. I have a friend who worked on one many moons ago. Do you have cats at your Kibbutz? Is that a crazy question?
Really it is a pleasure to get the chance to learn about you today.
Thank you for throwing my name into the hat for your giveaway of treasure.

Elsina!
Thanks for your kind words over at my blog! I love your giveaway! I collect Hamsa's and would love to add yours to my collection. When i was in Israel years ago, i started a little collection and now i try to get them from all over the world.
I saw that your cat Joey went missing and i hope that he will return soon! I have two cats and know how horrible it could be if one went missing!
Please do include me in the giveaway, and perhaps we could do some sort of hamsa swap? I would love that!

best,
Lisa

I was drawn in, from Land O'Nod's blog, by your picture, which I have now learned is artwork by (fabulous) you!- called Drummer Boy. It is a mesmerizing image! Then, when I read about you I thought, "this is a kindred heart." My favorite movies read similar to yours, and I admire that you are living on a kibbutz. I once went to Nederland (Amsterdam) to help my sister move there, & who speaks Dutch, in pursuit of her Art History Phd. (which she just received in Dec) So I am just stopping by to say hello fellow-artist-kindred spirit! I am so glad to meet you! Hugs! ~theMixiePixie (@blogspot or @ aol.com)

I seems our google account is in my cat's name (I know you understand crazy cat people!) and I wasn't able to send it through with the proper http for MY site. I did not want to get it all confused.

I would love to be in your drawing, though. And I look forward to watching your blog, too. I Networked it already!
