1 000 posts! Giveaway time!

I´ve had this blog for almost three years now and I still feel that it is very inspiring. I have to challenge myself almost everyday thinking of something to post. I always bring my camera wherever I go because ”I might see something that I can post about”. I might do an illustration I wouldn´t have done if it wasn´t for this blog. So I´m really glad I started it. This last three years have almost been the three best in my 20-year-long career. And I get SO happy every time I get a comment. So now it is give-away-time. Leave a comment and I´ll pick a winner next Sunday (all names in a hat and my sons as witnesses:-) who will get the stuff above. HOORAY!

    Every day I take a peak to see if you have posted something new. I really like to see what you buy at fleemarkets! I really like to look for old books and plates etc as well 🙂 Greetings from Holland, Titia

    Hi Ingela
    I’ve only recently discovered your blog and work, but I’m happy I found out about it! Better late than never…

    I also have a passion for flea-markets (especially old toys, books and games). Your blog actually makes me want to share my vintage findings on the internet. But I haven’t even started yet. I will never keep up with the 1000 great posts you made…

    Good luck!

    Hej Ingela!

    Gillar din inspirerande blogg och ännu mer designen på dina alster. Jag är också ett fan av loppisar och att retrofynda men dessvärre är jag ganska dålig på det, därför är jag extra glad för dina fina skapelser – till och med jag får ju en chans att ha sköna grejer hemma!

    Vänliga hälsningar Frida

    1,000 posts! Congrats 🙂

    I’ve loved following along the past few years … as a flea-market hound, I enjoy seeing your finds, and as a big fan of 60’s style, it’s a lot of fun seeing all your creations. Just picked up one of your nesting dolls a few months ago, and it’s one of my favorite things.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Ååh, vad jag hade blivit glad om jag hade vunnit lite Ingela-prylar. Du är min favorit-illustratör nr.1 (och det är inget fjäsk). Jag läste artikeln om dig i Family Living och vill nu typ ha ditt liv. 😉
    Mycket bra text som gav mig hopp och drömmar x 1000 om hus i framtiden.

    Tack för inspiration!

    Yes please!! I’m not surprised to hear that you’ve got your best years; your work is amazing. Modern, and still reminiscent of times long past. Childish, but still appealing to all grown-ups I know. If you keep going, I’ll keep reading your blog! Love from Amsterdam.

    hi, i was really proud to propose your illustrations in markets of creators in Pars,France. I really love your inspiration and tender humour… : )

    I follow your blog through Google Reader but sometimes I just can’t resist to leave some comments about your amazing works. I hunt for your book ’100 Wood Block Figures’ because I still can’t find any retailer who ships it to Hungary. I think this book (with the figures in it) is your best work ever and it was a great fun following the whole creative process on your blog. I have to tell you that I also really like the posts about the happy figures created from the leaves and berries you collect during taking walks.
