"I Wish" Wednesday!

My wish for this Wednesday kinda already came true! I was looking and looking for hair toys on Etsy and not really finding anything that grooved me (except scary mannequin heads). I gave up in frustration and started cyber-thumbing through my favorite blog reads. I happened upon Chic n' Cheap NYC's, a blogging bride after my own champagne-taste-and-beer-budget-heart. I can't wait to see her veil....

Anyway, she was offering a 20% discount for Chic n' Cheap readers as well as a chance to win a hair toy from DonnaElla, a hair toy and birdcage veil creator! Well, I headed straight over to DonnaElla's Etsy shop, checked out her stuff and entered her contest.

I won.

I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON! I WON!

In case you were wondering? I won.

Miss Donna put all the names in a box and let her little girl pick a name and she picked ME! I won.

I chose this item from the DonnaElla Etsy shop.

It looks like it has little tiny feathers behind it (which I might end up removing) but the flower part is PERFECT! It's got a pearl center that will coordinate nicely with the family jewels.

So my wish is that my hair toy be here now! I want to see if it matches the rest of The Big Show Ensemble.

I sound like a spoiled kid....I won! I won! I want it now! I don't care. I am just so excited that I won something. I can't remember the last time I actually won a contest of chance. I swore after I lost the Skinny Cow contest on Budget Savvy Bride that I wasn't going to enter any more contests. I really had my hopes up for a month's supply of Skinny Cows. I freaking love those things, specifically the vanilla cones.

Anyway, I really don't have too many wishes these days, and I think that's a great thing. So instead of wishing for my free and wonderful surprise to arrive, perhaps I'll wish for patience. :)

Thank you, Donna for the contest and the beautiful prize. I simply cannot wait to see it!
