    Beautiful, I wanted to have a look just incase i ever came across it. The quote is a good one considering St John's wort is thought to be a mood elevator. (I's say a flower blossom beat's prozac anytime :)

    Thank you for the compliments, my dears! And thanks for appreciating my choice of quote, Sukhmandir! I've heard St. John's wort is an effective herbal treatment for depression, too.

    Great photo. I used to grow St. John's wort and it was a mass of yellow flowers when it bloomed.

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to Rita Szlovencsák for submitting the randomly chosen 57th entry. Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free.
