today I'm celebrating coming home after a 9 day Texas teaching trip with a GIVEAWAY...
it's compliments of tim & Ranger...
I have a set of the 3 brand new mini distress inks to give to a random blog commenter...
the minis are oh so cute...
they're easy to store & easy to take with you when traveling...
I'll be back later this week with a fun tutorial showing you a great way to use the minis...
regular sized distress pads will work too...
here's a hint...you WILL want to have your GRIDBLOCKS nearby for the tutorial...
they are a KEY ingredient...
somedays I have blonde moments...
this probably wasn't my smartest move...
after being gone for 9 days...
I asked Rick to have the family room & our bedroom emptied out so I could do a refresh...
I LOVE to change things around in our home...
and to make room for this cutie in the family room...
ps...it's ON SALE at Pottery Barn...
ok...back to the GIVEAWAY...
if you'd like to win these 3 brand new minis...
just leave a comment & tell me your ONE MOST FAVORITE DISTRESS INK COLOR...simple...but it's NOT simple to choose just one color!
I'll be back later this week with the distress tutorial & I'll announce the lucky winner...
feel free to share this GIVEAWAY with your friends...

it's hard to pick just one but I love vintage photo
Oh, and my favorite color? Rusted Hinge!
Spiced marmalade. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I have 3 favorites (sorry, but it's hard to choose!) which are Broken China, Tumbled Glass and Fired Brick. The one I use most is Vintage Photo ... go figure!
I would love these, because hubby is retiring in a couple of months and we will be traveling with our camper a lot, and these would be GREAT for leaving in my small storage space for crafting supplies!
Love them all, need them all
this week is Vintage Photo love them all really
I love the minis, I've also been getting them for my daughter as she doesn't have many of the larger ones. Perfect size
I love the mini distress inks so much! My favorite is the Peacock feathers! Such a pretty color!
Picked Raspberry is my FAVORITE!!! Would be so awesome to have these minis. :)

Thank you so much for having the chance to win!
It is HARD just to pick ONE color soooo I did have to pick three, worn lipstick, dried marigold, festive berries AND......ok I will stop here haha!
Have great day/Gunilla
Oh wow what a wonderful offer, I only have one and that is the walnut. I would love to try the other colors. Thanks for the chance :)
Holy smokes,that furniture piece is amazing! I just wish my dh could help me move stuff, let alone do it by himself. Oh well. Love the new mini ink pads and hope I'm the winner of a set so I can start off my collection. Fave color? Yowza, that's a tough one. But Peeled Paint is probably it...at least today. lol Can't wait to see the new tutorial!
As most people who love distress inks I find it difficult to pin one as a pure favourite!! However I must admit to always being drawn to Spiced marmalade on a regular basis as I think it has a lovely warmth to it and really invigorates a project. Love these mini distress inks and thank you Wendy for the chance to enter your fabulous giveaway
x catherine
I do love all the colours, to be sure, but my hands-down fave will forever be Salty Ocean! :-)
My favorite distress color dried marigold, why, well it's not exactly orange and it's not exactly yellow, it has a great shine and if I apply it on top of a metallic distress paint it looks like rust, so definitely dried marigold!
wow i love, love, love that awesome cabinet, wish i had the money to buy one i would have it in a nanosecond. tims minis are so cute, love those too. the color i use most is vintage photo would love to have the set. thanks for chance.

Happy Monday!! XOXO-Shari
I think my most favorite color is Victorian Velvet! I use it on everything!

Hi unfortunately we dont have Pottery Barn in the UK. BUT I would love to win the mini set with ripe persimmon x
For me it's easy : crushed olive... I always love a good olive green...
Yes, you're right choosing just one is hard. I use Gathered Twigs the most I think.

OMG I love them ALL! But if I have to pick I would say Salty Ocean is my favorite distress color!!
My FAV color is Picked Raspberry, although my Go-To color is probably Vintage Photo. And I really, really want to know how you find that special someone you can just ask to "empty out a room" for you? Wow, you GO GIRL! You are SO my mentor!!!!!!!!!
LOL
Oh..how to choose. I think, in all likelihood, it might possibly be (& subject to likely change).. peacock feathers! Love that black unit!! x
I use Faded Jeans all the time, it would have to be that! I couldn't do my art without these pads of rainbow colors.....
Wild Honey! I can hardly wait to see what you do! Thanks!
your new cabinet!! And as for the color,well vintage photo is always on my table, goes with everything!
Just One??? Faded Jeans is so versatile - I just love it.
Vintage Photo. I would cry lots if Ranger ever got rid of it! I don't think anything leaves my craft room without some Vintage Photo somewhere on it!
Love all the colours.. but my all time favourite is vintage photo!
Worn lipstick. Just can't resist those pinks.
That Pottery Barn piece looks amazing. Thanks for the giveaway. Hmm I guess my fave color would have to be one I use the most so that might be Vintage Photo :)
That's so hard my most used colour is brushed courdary but I would say my fav colour is rusty hinge. Great give away
my fav is iced spruce.
My fave has to be Peacock Feathers although I use Black Soot the most thank you so much for the opportunity xXx
Love that metal cabinet with all the drawers! There's not a single color so far that I haven't loved, but my favorite would have to be Wild Honey.
Today my favorite color is dried marigold, it changes from week to week, but I just adore the new minis. Thanks
I hate to limit myself to just one! I guess I'd go with Salty Ocean.
Easy Peasy......my fave is Peacock feathers and By all the comments I'm not alone!
Great giveaway. Thanks Wendy.....xx
I also love that cabinet. Would look great in my craft room. probably cost too much to ship to the uk though :-(

How does one choose just one Distress color? Impossible!! If I have to choose, I'd say (at this very moment) Peacock Feather. Now I'd say Vintage Photo. Now I'd say Wild Honey. And so it will go.

Mine is Vintage Photo, I think I use it on nearly every card or tag I make. Thanks for the giveaway chance xx
Oh, geez! Being a purple lover, I'd say Seedless Preserves is my favorite Distress Color.

Tough choice! I would have to say Vintage Photo. I use it so much!
Today my favorite color is spiced marmalade, tomorrow it will be a totally different one though. Depends on the project I am working on!
That drawer unit is amazing! My fave colour changes with the seasons... but somehow I keep going back to peacock feathers! Woukd love to win the minis!!!
Oh that new piece of furniture is to die for, I love it!
Well after lots of thought I would have to say Pickled Raspberry to be my all time favorite.
Have fun doing your refresh!

Hard to choose one, but I'd have to say Broken China.
Wow!! The only way I can answer this is: most used? Vintage Photo, Favorite Color? Tumbled Glass!!

I love love love peacock feathers!!!
Frayed Burlap
Walnut stain, grunge, vintage, grunge! Nikki x
That is a cutie....I'd move to accommodate that piece of furniture!! Lipstick is my fav, but I use Vintage photo most often.
I love Tumbled Glass...reminds me of the beach glass we gather after the waves tumble it in...thanks for the opportunity.
Although I love the pink, I mostly use brown or black. But I would try them all out if I won them.
I love seeing your home pics, its she a lovely space, and you get such cool furniture over on the states.
My fav distress ink has to be vintage photo, I add it to practically everything lol
The one I use most is Vintage Photo ... go figure!
I think milled lavender is mine just love the colour and use it so much x
So hard to pick just one, but Picked Raspberry it is!
Give me some orange and I am a happy gal! Love the cabinet, just not in my budget. Can't wait to see your project, you have amazing techniques and I love the end result of every single project of yours! I have been going through a lot of your old posts and learning a lot.
Love the new minis, you can take so many more of them with when space is limited!
Yes, way to hard to pick just one favorite... peacock feathers is one of my favs!
Are you serious? Pick just one? He he. Well, I use Vintage Photo so much, but Chipped Sapphire is another great color to use, especially to edge your projects. Love them all, though.
So hard to choose . . . . Right now, it would be seedless preserves. Thanks for the chance to win these minis!
Oh My! I LOVE distress mini's AND I love that cabinet you are making room for!!! Awesome giveaway. .. My first "go to" ink is of course Vintage Photo. But, I really love the pop of color from Peacock Feathers!! ♡
Yes one is hard to pick. I'm more into the browns and more rustic colors but lately I've been grabbing Pickled Raspberry and love the results. Thanks for the giveaway.
One color??? Oh that is TOO HARD. Well then, Wild Honey because it just brightens up everything. I find when I feel like something is missing adding it just finishes everything for me
All of them? But I'll go with Worn Lipstick!
If I had to pick one, it's Broken China! Thanks for a chance to win. Glad you're back, need some tuts to follow!
These mini's are so fun!! I think I really need them!
how can I choose just one favorite??
for today, my favorite is Wild honey. :)
thanks for all the inspiration you give us... and your talent for creating

Love your furniture! Got to be peacock feathers for me. suz xxx
Definitely Peacock Feathers!
ok - if I HAVE to pick ONE color it would be salty ocean. I don't have any of these smaller ink pads and I love all the tutorials I have been seeing out there!
Walnut stain is a favorite, good to edge pages with. Love the new small sizes, they are great for traveling. Thanks for the giveaway.
Old Paper is my FAVORITE!
turquoise =)
I have just started using distress ink and I am already in love!!!! I wish I could have them all. I have told myself to put money on the side each month just for distress inks LOL. So far I love walnut stain and seedless preserves. Seedless preserves would have to be my favorite :) Thank you for the chance <3
My favorite color is walnut stain! I use it a lot.
Peacock Feathers!
Wow Wendy, that cabinet with the drawers is fabulous!! My favourite colour is easy - Peacock Feathers, such a happy, cheery, bright and fun colour - love it! Have fun with the changes to your room. Anne x
Love all reds! Worn lipstick. I think the organizational cabinet is great!
they are all my favorites..but if i had to choose ONE, it would be peacock feathers.
Have fun in your "new" rooms. We just did a refresh by painting the 1970's brick fireplace with an off-white paint. WOW it really brightened up the family room. My favorite distress ink is Vintage Photo to give anything a nice aged look.
I love your find at Pottery Barn. I would have to say my favorite would have to vintage photo. Hands down its my GO TO.
I guess I'd have to say that Spiced Marmalade is my favorite! I was never much of an "orange" person until I owned a bright metallic orange car! I don't own the car any longer but I still favor the color!
lol, one out of so many... but Wild Honey.. Love your new storage unit, I could put that to good use! Looking forward to the tut!
Welcome home!! Don't work too hard on your house makeover. If it's as hot there as it is here in NC, then you'll be glad to be indoors. hehe I finally... yes, finally... made it to the store that has those little sprinkle bottles we used in class. ;) Yay... now I can play properly! My favorite color of Distress is Salty Ocean!! It's hard to pick just one, but I did, and I'm sticking to it! LOL
Welcome home!!!
What a give away.....but to choose one color??? I love the mini's because they are mini ;-) but well Wild Honey is one of my favorites.
These new colours are amazing, but my favourite one is Vintage Photo. I use it in 90% of the projects I create, I think, lol! :)
Love the mini's!!!!!!! Since I need to choose just one....... Peacock Feathers:) Thanks so much for this offer.
picking one is not easy - at the moment I am loving spiced marmalade.
Thanks for the fun!

Sorry deleted my comment which was...
I love that chest of drawers Wendy!! I have no doubt you will fill all of those drawers with pure awesomeness!
Fave color...well THAT IS tough...right now this second...Picked Raspberries! quickly posting before I change my mind because I do love them ALL!
My favorite color must be vintage photo because I grab it the most. But my initial reaction was going to be one of the bold colors that shouts out to me. So I had to stop and give it a think for a moment.
Thanks for the chance to win!

Thanks for the chance to win!
It is definitely a struggle to just pick one favorite color but if I had to do it, it would be broken china!
I hope you gave yourself some time to rest and decompress before you tackled rearranging your bedroom and family room!!
Thank for the opportunity to win these delightful little inks!
My favourite colour is Peacock Feathers! I just love it!
Ooooh I LOVE Peacock Feather!! I love working with all the colors but Peacock Feather is my go too!!
My go to color is vintage photo. The colors are so awesome in the mini's! Thanks for a chance! And btw that cabinet rocks!!!😍
ummm pick 1 color.. I guess my main go to is tea dye. But I love dried marigolds!
For black to be the absence of color it is my favorite because it makes anything pop, so hands down it's black soot. I couldn't live without it!
Thanks Wendy and glad you are home. Now I'm off to surf Pottery Barn lol. xx
Have always loved Aged paper, but would love to try so many more colors.
I love "little" things... I'd have to say frayed burlap... my got ink!
Rusted Hinge - but love them all!
I absolutely love my distress inks, I Love all the colors but if I have to choose it would be Vintage PHOTO, I don't have any of the mini yet it would be fabulous if I were to win...Good Luck everyone...
Oh my gosh, I love, love that cabinet!! I'm going to have to check it out at Pottery Barn!! Oh, how do you pick a favorite Distress Ink color? Well, I probably use Walnut the most but my most fave is Spun Sugar!! Have a great day :)

it is not easy to pick one color, but i will choose Peacock Feathers
upnurse at aol dot com
I just love that cabinet, Wendy! Too bad that is not the giveaway! On a more serious note, it's vintage photo that remains on my desktop at all times so I guess that qualifies it as my favorite. Thanks for the chance to win!
love those minis. ideal on holidaytrips.
fav colour a this moment: festive berries, but it changes regulary
One? They are all my favorites! Okay if I have to choose I'll pick Tumbled Glass- it is just such a nice blue- great for water coloring around an image. I love the mini's - is it me or do they seem juicier than the big distress pads?
My favorite color is Peacock Feathers, but the one I use the most is Vintage Photo. I have all the regular size Distress Ink pads and would love to try the minis.
Mmm...broken china is still my number one, all time fave. What a whirlwind tour! Love that chest of drawers!
Today it is peacock feathers, yesterday it was picked raspberries, tomorrow who knows I love them all. I also love your new cabinet looks good.
vintage photo!
I love faded jeans. And fired brick!! together!!!!
If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Peeled Paint! Thanks for the chance to win!!!
That's really hard. Most of the time i use the Broken China and Crushed Olive... hmmmm ... my favourite is Crushed Olive!
Peacock
and I agree that cabinet is adorable;)
Really? My one favorite distress color. Um, well, that's hard. I would say that wild honey is one that I reach for a lot. Love the buzz over these minis. They are so cute and the ideas for using them are terrific. Oh, and that cabinet is amazing. Have fun with your refreshed room!
