Dayspring ~ The Life Collection Giveaway

by Kimba on May 3, 2009

This giveaway is closed.

Have you seen Dayspring’s new line of kitchen and tableware products? Fabulous! It’s called the Life Collection and it features the Bible verse John 10:10 (NIV), “I come that they might have life and have it to the full.” Those words bring joy to my heart. The generous (and really nice) folks at Dayspring sent me some samples of the collection to use in my home.

And use them, I did. It took me exactly 3 minutes from the moment it arrived on my doorstep to fill this gorgeous pitcher with my Sam’s Club daisy bouquet. I’m in love! Wouldn’t this pitcher make a fantastic Mother’s Day gift filled with some inexpensive flowers? You could fill it with asparagus and it would still be beautiful.

We had friends coming over Friday right after my box of goodies arrived from Dayspring. I couldn’t resist using them. Look how nice the platter makes my store-bought cupcakes look and my strawberries look extra yummy in in the Life Collection bowl.

And a few angel food cake crumbs don’t make the dinner plate any less beautiful.

Yes, the entire collection is beautiful. Each piece is like a little work of art. But they’re practical too. Each piece is dishwasher and microwave safe. That makes the coffee mug my favorite since I rarely get to finish a cup of coffee without having to reheat it.

I just couldn’t resist doning this adorable apron and pretending to be a domestic diva. What is that thing in my hand anyway?

Would you like some of the Dayspring Life Collection for your home? You can use the code Life20 to save 20% off your entire order at Dayspring. Shipping is free too, if you spend $50!
