Posie Patchwork says
Oh yeah, it’s totally cool, love it all!! I love blogging, i got back into it this year to keep my company during 9 months of long lonely nights after my 4 children went to bed & my husband was at war. So good for mental health. I’ve also moved from sticking pretty much to just crafty blogs to some mummy blogs too, love Posie
Cate says

BabyMac says
I would expect nothing less than all this fabulousness from a blog such as this….nice one lady!
There are many people that help me through my day. Number one is my husband. Partner in crime. Lover. Sharer of alcoholic beverages with me. Best mate. Still can’t believe I was as lucky as I was to have him as MY husband. My gals. My Mum. My laptop. Oh and occasionally gin & tonic. And Prosecco. And pork. Clearly it takes one interesting village to raise me.
Congrats Bron – FAB blog all round. So happy to be part of YOUR village x
Notchka says
eeeeep just one of those lovely things would be a very special giveaway, but all of them? I’m a quiver with excitment on an atomic level.
My ‘village’ includes my immediately family (of course), my crazy bright cheerful besties who skpe and instant message me just when I need it and keep me in balance. Also I love checking in with some special bloggers who make me smile and tear up at times – you’re on that list….oh I know what a cheeseball eh?
Naturally Carol says
What a delectable bunch of goodies, please count me in. My village, my family, my town, my family overseas, church family and this extended cyberfamily. Thanks for being part of it!

Who’s in my village? I’d have to say my online friends have really been my rock through out my pregnancy and now the baby days. It has been fabulous to have support and people who know exactly what you’re going through, as they are going through it themselves.
I will certainly be spreading the maxabella loves love!!! What a tongue twister!!

Caz (The Truth About Mummy) says
Such a beautiful blog! My village is family. Love them to bits.
Faith Hope and a whole lotta Love says
Some gorgeously talented peeps there!! I was just saying the other day that I could easily live with my parents, husband, daughters & brother all in a big share home….where we would all support & love & care for each other, but also have the space to be individuals too….life to me is too short, so why not spend it living with & embracing every day with the ones you dearly love. My village is full of love & trust & compassion.
m.e (Cathie) says
oh MY!! Maxabella you are a star and so are those wonderfully generous girls!
my village is my family & my mum, LOVE them to the moon & back seventy 60 million times (in the words of my 4 yr old)

Rhi@FlourChild says
Wow, those prezzies are all so beautiful!
My village has just changed… When I moved overseas I was so sad to leave me real life little village of friends. I now have a new mothers group of English speaking ex-pat mum’s here in Belgium. Finding them all has been a life-saver. I am also very lucky to have my husbands family literally here in the village. And since becoming a more active blogger, I am loving the support and camaraderie of the blogging village too. x
Rhi@FlourChild says
I’ve added your button 🙂 Top of the list! x

Anna Bartlett says
Yes! Please count me in! Isn’t that Posie Patchwork amazing!
I often thank the villagers in my life that are helping me bring up my kids – my family and dear girlfriends, some whom I’ve known forever, and some who are brand newbies. They contribute so much to my life and the lives of my kids. I am blessed.
life in a pink fibro says
OMG. That is a GREAT giveaway. I want one of those crochet thingies. How did I survive without one? My village is surprisingly small and family-based. Maybe because of my move? My main villager is my hubby The Builder. Couldn’t do it without him. Mum, Dad and, of course, my sisters, for whom I thank heavens (and blogs) every day, and my little bro, who offers respite care for weary mamas.
life in a pink fibro says
Okay, I have the button placed strategically in my sidebar, and I have tweeted the tweet. 🙂
Jen says
What a beautiful collection of pieces. It sure takes a ‘Village’ to get through the day looking after little people, my bestest friend and sister help me keep sane
Frog, Goose and Bear says
Brilliant giveaway!! I am crossing my fingers like crazy!!! I have been eyeing that crocheted necklace from Little Ted Canvas (AKA loved) for quite some time now… I am proud to have most of those very clever bloggers in my ‘village’ too. My main village these days is becoming more focused on my family and although smaller than what I’ve been used to, I really love it!
Congrats on 500 followers – oh my goodness!
tatgurl says
Wow! what an amazing giveaway! My “village” is a group of mom friends that met 10 years ago when our oldest were born. MY little support group that I know will always be there for me.

Christie - Childhood 101 says
My village spreads across the country, indeed the world. For example, I have a dear online friend who I have never met in real life, who organised a weeks worth of meals to be delivered to us after we recently lost our baby. Villages have certainly evolved with technology!
lm says
My village consists of the beautiful people in my life…strangers, friends, colleagues and family are all the people who make me realise that I’m here for a reason.
I rely on my sister to get me through the day, she rocks my world. I would not be the person I am if it wasn’t for her! I am very blessed =)
•´.¸¸.•¨¯`♥.Trish.♥´¯¨•.¸¸.´• says
My village are firstly my family who rock my world; church family friends, real life friends and a few facebook & bloggy friends.
Beautiful comment !
Gina says
The fact that you have only been blogging since April amazes me – you blog like an old pro :). Congrats on reaching 500!
Wanderlust says
Wow, you’ve only been blogging since April? Really?! Just stunning. Good for you. And what an amazing giveaway.
I’ve said it before, but my village truly is my bloggy friends who have come through for me in an amazing way these past six months when things really fell apart in my world. I have been blessed, touched, humbled by the support and generosity of friends from near and far who have shown so much compassion and really extended a hand when I was in need, and when I don’t have the benefit of family to fall back on. A village I didn’t even realize I had until I needed it. It has truly saved me.

Over 20 years later we have supported each other through LIFE. Amazing achievements and happiness and incredible loss and disappointment. They are honest – a little too honest sometimes – and supportive. I know that they love me and my family. I feel blessed to have them in my life. Thanks girls!!

My village is made up of my family, friends and community. My Hubby, children, my sisters and parents. Also my friends close by and far away, we are a community connected by a stroll to each others homes, a short drive, or by email, the phone, facebook, twitter.
Then there is my online community of bloggers that I also call friends and who I know I can turn to.
As well as my village, where I can chat to the post office owner as well as collect my mail, get coffee just the way I like it, and know that my children are safe as they walk to get treats, protected by the ever watching eye of local people.

Oh yes.. they are really really really OMFG talented!!
Love your giveaway!! You are seriously a legend in picking the cuuuutest, bestest, most gorgeous stuff!!
To the point so my entry counts..
My village.. its a big village with a whole array of stragglers that have came into my life for various reasons, from various places, from under various rocks.. they all have enormous hearts so although from such different backgrounds.. they all get along like a house on fire.. and i love having them all around, kids, dogs and all! They’re my ‘real life’ friends..
I also have another little village which is the online community, bloggy friends and facebook friends.. they often know the ins-and-outs before my real life buddies (as a lot of them are anti-fb).. they leave me little comments on my blog and fb posts to pick me up, encourage me and make me smile right there and then.. I like it here.. it’s nice!! Really Really NICE!
Apart from my immediate family of four.. there are just distant pasts and generally aren’t there when I really need someone.. they’re really quite crappy at giving me a positive, chin up kinda feeling..
So in a nutshell.. i like it here! thanks for being a part of my little village!!

Wowzers, what a haul! My village is made up of new blog friends, old friend friends, friends in faraway places, nice strangers in shops and playgrounds and my siblings (who are sometimes near but mostly faraway). Merry Christmas! xx
