I'm finally getting my ONE WORLD ONE HEART post up, right under the wire. I kept thinking I'd rally and do something more clever but it's time to accept my limitations, mostly time limitations at the moment, and move on. I know it's late but I just couldn't pass up the party, I've met such lovely bloggers each year and each year a few lovely new friends have found me.

*HEART* *LAUGH* *DANCE* *CACKLE* *TWIRL*

This year's theme is a "Magic Carpet Ride" - a travel method I've not really given a lot of thought to before now, although I'm sure it will soon seep into some of my new ideas and obssessions.

http://images.encarta.msn.com/xrefmedia/sharemed/targets/images/pho/001a9/001a9b94.jpg

But really, I'm more of a broom rider.




Sometimes I flutter about by wing.

It would be nice to have some Floo Powder handy from time to time. Or even be able to beam about like the Star Trek crew.




Most of the time, however, I rely on my own two feet and a good sturdy pair of shoes.

It might take me awhile to get places but I don't miss so much along the way.

Since I wasn't able to participate earlier primarily because I was off dancing and dining with my beautiful faery friends, I wanted my giveaway to be faery related this year. It's a small offering, but a heartfelt one.




A wee faery charm. It's just ONE charm. There are two charms shown in the photo so you can see both sides of it. There will, undoubtedly, be something else or two included in the package for the lucky winner. Not sure what yet. But if I wait to post until I know, time will run out on the party! I'll dig and toss about and I'm sure I'll find something a true faery soul will oooh and ahhhh about.

For a chance to have this little charm winging it's way to you, all you have to do is leave a comment here on this post that will link back to your blog so that I can contact you.

Don't forget to come back and visit again after you recover from your magic trip 'round the globe. I'll still be here, puttering and fluttering, and hopefully getting more blog posts up then I have lately. I've got lots of faery pics to share both here and over on my every day blog, Beach Treasure, where I am also participating in OWOH and there is another chance to win a faery gift.

2/15/10 Update: ****This year's OWOH winner has been announced**** But please click on my main link and come on in for a visit!

Hi,

I love the way your post was written -- so much magic! :) Besides, the charm is charming. Before I forget -- is that your little girl going for a walk with the dog? Do you happen to know the breed of the dog? It looks a bit like my late dog. :)

If a glass bead necklace sounds good, you might want to visit my blog. It would be a pleasure to welcome you there. :)
