{create*loves} Mid-Summer Giveaway! *closed*

I love mid-summer. The thunderstorms, the warm (make that hot!) weather, spending time with family, watermelon on the deck, crocheting outside, bike rides, holidays, and festivals.

*OPI nail lacquer in "Funky Dunkey"... this is such a fun purple shade!
*oversized vintage sunglasses from Lune.
*a packet of Via Iced Coffee (yes, I'm obsessed)
*and lastly, an assortment of pretty vintage buttons from my personal craft stash!

xoxo
