I am so excited to introduce you to The Pink Pig. I was a fan of this shop long before she became a sponsor of ASPTL. The Pink Pig is the baby of Debbie Schrodt, a former Wall Street executive who left NYC in 2006 for a quieter life in the North Country. Doesn't that sound like a dream?
The Pink Pig is an irresistible blend of city style and simple country charm. It has something for all of you City Pigs and all of you Country Pigs, too. I think this La Maison Charm is perfect for a City Pig or a Country Pig.
You Country Pigs are probably all a-cluck for the Chicken Grain Sack Pillows.
If I could win my own giveaway, I would get myself this Beau Soleil Bag. I love it!
In addition to all of these pretties, Pink Pig is full of carefully selected apparel, home decor, jewelry and signature candle scents.
One lucky winner will receive $50 to spend at Pink Pig! Just leave me a comment telling me if you think you're a City Pig or a Country Pig. Me? I'm a pseudo-rural, edge of the suburbs, wishing I was a Country Pig, who really needs to be near an urban area so I can satisfy my inner City Pig.
You can get extra entries by:
1. Going to look around Pink Pig and telling me what you love the most from the shop.
2. Mention this giveaway on Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, your blog, wherever you mention things like this.
Leave another comment for each thing that you do. This giveaway will be open until Friday.

I grew up as a Country Pig. But since leaving for college, I have lived in--or very near--big cities. And I like it. So I guess that makes me a City Pig.
I am a city pig turned country pig. But I still love my city roots. Can't get rid of them entirely!
As for my favorite thing from the shop....I just love the soldered charms...especially the "vintage girl" charm.
i am 80% city pig and 20% country pig I love the Antique Decorative Hooks
I will be whatever pig you'd like me to be, except the one on the plate at dinner! Grew up in OK, settled in FL.
I am definitely a City Pig! The country doesn't hold a lot of appeal to me. =)
I am a city pig with a country pig hubby! I LOVE the 3 tierd bird cake stand! Oh i am swooning over it! I shall have to visit this shop more often! Thanks for letting me know about it!
Okay, just went and checked it out; I love all of the bath and candle stuff, and the Poppies Cap Sleeve Top - Turquoise! =)
A country pig all the way!! Cute things! Love the soldered cross!!
Kimba, if you get a minute today, hop over to my blog--I am having decorating issues in the entrance of my home!! Would appreciate all ideas!! Thanks so much!
Hugs!
Susan
I'm a Country Pig who NEEDS to be around a City to keep the inner country pig from going CRAZY! Thanks for the chance to win!
I live in a rural area outside a large city but I think I am a "burb-pig". It seens I sway between the two types. Thanks for sharing and I am off to check out their site.
Charla
Country pig who so wishes she were a city pig... just not so. Can't wait to check out her site!
I just checked out her site! WOW! So much on there I LOVE! I love the reduce, resuse, recycle bag. Along with some of her pillows, wall decor, garage salvage. Yes, I LOVED a lot!
I think I'm a Sunday-Monday country pig, but I'd love to be a city pig on Saturday! I'm completely in love with the pink and yellow tulip toleward Chandelier and it would be the perfect finishing touch in my little girls' room!
Okay... I'm convinced I desperately need the Antique Decorative Hooks. Absolutely convinced.
Is there such thing as a Beach Pig? Because that's me...sand and all...but if I had to choose...I'm guessing City Pig because I dream of cool shops like Nordstrom and Williams Sonoma !!!
I hope I win !!
I'm like you Kimba...can never be too far from the city...but enjoy being a country pig most days!
I think with all the great internet shopping sites..I could almost be a country pig.
Thanks for the givaway :)
Country pig- love that country furniture
I am a country pig with three little piglets and a big 'ol papa pig! :o) OOOhhh! The Love Spoon Pendant! Lovely!
I am pure bred Country Pig ... by heart. In reality, I live on the very edge of the city. If you stand at my back door it looks totally rural. But out the front door is everything at our disposal. We like the back door best :)
And now ... I am off to find my favorite thing.
I'm 60% city and 40% country. I love the best of both worlds!!
I love the vintage girl charm necklace....toooo cute!
100% country pig! LOVE this website! It's one of the best I have seen in a LONG time and I love that it has salvaged and vintage.
I would choose the body butter, or the love spoon pendant, or the toile lamp, or...
I think I'm both :)
Thanks for this giveaway! What great stuff!

I'm a country pig with a dash of city pig.
What a cute little shop. I love the Heywood Wakefield Folding Chairs the best. I think. It's hard to pick one thing I'd like to get from there.
I am a city pig with country pig in my heart. I live in a small town where everyone knows everyone else and all the kids walk to school, but I am close to a large city where I can shop, see entertainment, etc. It is the best of both worlds.
That blue hen is so beautiful! I think that is my favorite thing. But can I tell you it is not easy to choose?
City piggie here! Although I love a weekend away in the country:)
I want the 3 tiered bird stand...strike that...I need it!!!!
I'm a little of both! Is there such thing as a small-town Pig???
I love that bag & those pillows.... really really love them!!
I grew up in Southern CA in lived there for 34 years loving the city. Now, for the past five years I've been living in the midwest, way out in the country and I have to say, I am a country pig!
I think I am a little bit of both. Love to visit the big city, but wouldn't want to live there. Love to visit the country, too. I think I'm somewhere in the middle.
I'm definitely a blended-pig. Love being close to the city, but definitely love the wide-open spaces of the country. I grew up on three acres surrounded by a nature preserve, and literally three minutes up the road was Meijer & Walmart. It was perfect.
I am currently a semi country pig, 6 acres outside of a large city, but...now that both kids are in college I long to be an urban pig. I want to live in the heart of a thriving city, walk to restaurants and galleries, I need some action to spice up this empty nest!
I adore the Paris necklace! Because as they say in the movie, Sabrina: "Paris is always a good idea." :)
OK Those Hatwood Wakefield folding chairs in all the colors are so what I need right now!
City Pig. Did you know that we have a ride called the pink pig it's at the Macy's in downtown every Christmas.
Ally
I am posting your give away on facebook as I am taking a blog break.http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1701520100&ref=name
I am exactly the same kind of pig as you! I always think I'm a country pig until a big spider lands on me or I get a craving for Target or delivered pizza :)
I'm a city pig who's a wannabe country pig! Thanks!
I am a city pig-FOR SURE!! We live in the suburbs now but some day I hope to retire in the city!
Cute things! I'm a split pig. Love visiting the country, but get me back to civilization in a couple of days. :)
I love the feedsack pillows (Hubbard's Sunshine) and also the Paris charm...LOVE all the stuff.
I am a city pig that will be moving out of a small town to a big town soon....
My favorite thing in her shop is the Chinois Flower Tee - Blue, very cute!
Love the Blue Ticking Pillows!!!
I am definately a wanna be country pig, but I grew up very close to the city so I guess that makes me a city pig. Everything in your give away is fabulous!!!
Oh a city pig all the way:)
Country pig. Definitely.
Tina
I really like the wall hooks made from ceiling tiles.
Tina
I am a country pig (by location), but I like to mix rustic with modern.
City pig, city pig, city pig...
Thanks for the giveaway!

Something like you...I live on Long Isalnd -30 minutes on a good day to NYC and yet surrounded by beaches and farms nearby...75/25 country over city. I like my conveniences and yet have a more country feel at home.
At the shop-the French Grain sack cushion for my curbside treasure wrought iron bench!
~Nancy
Currently living as a small town pig who longs to be a city pig for a little while before becoming a lives-right-outside-of-town-but-has-a-location-that-feels-like-she-lives-in-the-country pig :)
I like the soaps and lotions and the french grain sack bench cushions.
I grew up as a city pig - but am truly a country pig at heart. Right now, I'm a compromise...a small town pig in rural IN, who still longs for the country. I'm getting closer, though! :0)
100% Country Pig and love it with a few roosters and goats in the mix!
Love the feedsacks with roosters on them...oh I so hope to get these.
will share on my blog
definitely a city pig..or at least close to a city.
I think I love the soy candles, and
too many decorative things to choose from!
I am a city pig, but would love to be a country pig.
Love the hooks.

keithlynn6@msn.com
My favorite item is the Hubbard's Sunshine pillow...and the Sweet Dreams Sign and the Bird 3-Tier Cake stand and the woman bust shell art statue...don't make me pick just one favorite!
I am a City Pig. I could not be a Country Pig because I must have a Target within 10 miles of my house.
I love the zinc garden planter
I'm a suburb pig. A piggish blend of both city and country.
I think I am a city pig (from Los Angeles!), with some country at heart. I would do my whole hous country if my hubby would let me. We're half and half.
Does this city/country thing remind anyone of a Donny and Marie song? (or are you all too young?)
I really like the candle holder in the decorative accents section. And the Faith Hope and Charity sign. And everything else.
I am a city pig with a country aesthetic!
I'm totally a Country Pig. Hands down. I live in an agricultural town of 2500 people and THAT is too big for me. I need country and quiet.
And my favorite items are the candles! And that country dresser that is gorgeous but way too spendy for me. Lol!
I'm half country-pig, half city-pig!
I'm a country pig with city pig flair. :-) The house I live in now if near the country but I can't resisit the hustle and bustle of city life just a short drive away.
Country pig through and through!
Hi, Kimba! Fun giveaway. :)
1. I am a suburban pig who likes to shop and visit in the city, but also likes the quiet of the country. :)
2. I'd choose the "Vintage Girl" or "La Maison" heart charms. :)
The Paris magnet board is pretty cool!
Can I be two pigs? I love the country & the city. I currently am a country pig & loving it. The peace, quiet, slow moving...ahh!
What a cute shop! I adore her pig grain sack pillow!!
I hope to someday be a Country Pig, but right now I'm in between, more of a Suburban Pig. :)
I'm a country pig at heart!! I live in the city though.
I would, without a doubt, pick the beau soleil bag for myself. I love it.
I am definitely a country pig, Though I currently live in the suburbs. Those Chicken Feed Sack Pillows would be amazing in my suburbs yearning for the country house.
I am a country pig - love the quiet, the simplicity of it all.
As for my favs......
Faith-Hope-Charity Sign
Cottage Chic Mirror
Love Spoon Pendant
Beau Soleil Beau Gris Bag
I've tweeted, I've FB'd & I've blogged......
I tweeted about this giveaway http://twitter.com/BuildthHerHouse
I'm a country pig with city pig tendencies...lol I love simple living but I can lean toward a luxaholic on occasion.
I love the tea set!!
I'm a city pig but still love the country. :)
I *heart* the bag.
I'm a country pig for sure! Checked out the pink pig site. The pig pillows are sold. Bummer. I then checked out a rooster pillow, sold. I'll just have to keep checking back.
I like the Vintage Girl charm.
I guess I'm a City Pig, with a little bit of Country Pig experience, who thinks the idea of living in the country is charming, but in reality needs the 'burbs.
I'm a mix breed. I love both. I love the vintage looking pillows and am drooling over the bird cake stand. Oh...and how about that headboard bench, to die for.
I'm a country pig with city pig aspirations!
sylviarj at yahoo dot com
Love the Antique Decorative Hooks--they would look great in my entryway!
sylviarj at yahoo dot com
I think I'm a Country Pig, but I really like the Limoges Teacup Set! I'm a sucker for tea things! What a fun shop!
I'm actually a suburban pig. I love to be close enough to the city to do things, but far enough out of the city that I"m not in all of the hot mess that comes with city living. And I like the suburbs because I can still easily visit the country as well. Perfect!
Definitely a city pig!
I'm loving the bird plate and the angel bird house. How cute is that?!
I facebooked your contest!
I twittered your contest!
I posted your contest on my blog!

I'm a Country Pig that loves to visit the City Pigs! My two favorites at Pink Pig are the Love Spoon Pendant and the Farmhouse Soap and Lotion set. Thanks for this giveaway! Love your blog!
I think that I'm a country pig who hankers for a thrift store close by---better yet, a country pig who owns the only thrift store within miles. How fun would that be!
there was a time when I thought I was a city pig....but alas...I am a proud country pig. I love this link! What a great shop!
Oh, oh, oh, I'm in love with those antique decorative hooks! How can a girl pass up a pretty tin fleur-de-lis paired with an old hook?
I'm with YOU in that I am on the fence of country & city.....I love the solitude of being among the trees & planting & enjoying the country air but I also have to be near a Target (clearance section!) I love the relaxed, country pig look! I'm swooning over that wicker table -- http://www.pinkpigwestport.com/item_911/Vintage-Wicker-Hall-Table.htm
and that cake stand - oh my - http://www.pinkpigwestport.com/item_826/Bird-3-Tier-Cake-Stand.htm
I have grown up a country pig all my life, however I love to visit and pretend to be a city pig from time to time!! :) Great shop!!
Definitely a country pig - in my little hometown you knew almost everyone. I miss the country life, but I like being a Dallas pig!
I have been a country pig my whole life and love every minute of it!
I am a Country Pig!
Beautiful items!!!
Count me as a country pig. I'm really diggin' that reusable shopping bag, so cute!
Totally a country pig. All the way.

Deb is the best!!! She has amazing stuff and she is SUPER sweet...I'm a city pig but love the farm look and those pillows in her store will be perfect in my house!
It's hard to pick, but I love the French Chic Bud Vase!!!
i'm a country pig, living in the big city.
i would love to own the primitive country bench. yum.
Oink, oink! I'm a vintage city pig but right now I live in the country.
laterbetty at gmail dot com
I love the vintage stuff she has...I have my eye on the head vase.
I'm definitely both a Country and a City girl. I love both, I need both. So, I think that makes me a confused Pig. LOL
i grew up a country pig near a city, so i could be either :) now i live in small town usa in a rural area of the midwest, so even though i live right in the middle of town i would say i am a country pig

Cathy ♥
Since I live in a small suburb, 30 minutes from anyplace I would shop, I would say I am a country pig. I love the beau soleil bag bag.
Thanks for introducing me to this shop. I have added her to my bookmarks for Christmas shopping! And I am most definitely a city pig living in the country...sigh.
As for my favorites from the shop. I love the shabby chic candle holder, but I definitely want to get the La Maison charm, as I have a son named Maison (with an I). Here's hoping...
Oh my I want it all! And dagnabit she sold all the mannequins--my very faves, but oh how I love that beautiful Fenton blue jadite hen! She really needs to come live in my kitchen. So many fun, fun items!
Cathy ♥
I just added your fabulous giveaway on my events blog-- www.blogeventsdex.blogspot.com under giveaways.
Cathy ♥
I'm a country pig all the way!
I visited the shop and oh boy! So many things to love! It was a toss up between the grey ticking strip pillow and the bird topped cake stand...I think the cake stand won out. :)
i am a country pig born and raised and a country pig I shall die - I would absolutely get the Bird 3-Tier Cake Stand - thanks for the great blog and the great giveaway.
I am a country pig who likes to visit her city pig friends very much. Especially for the dining.
I looove the wooden crate, the shabby chic candleholder and the cake plates, among many things.
I'm a stuck-near-the-City-Country Pig. Oh how I'd love to have a farm in the middle of nowhere...
definitly a country pig, i even raised a couple of pigs in hs, i like where you have lots of green and queit...went to the pink pig, soooooo cute, i love the three tiered bird cake plate, super cute, thanks for entering me
I've tried being a country pig, but it turns out I really love being a close to the city but live in the burbs pig.
I like being a country pig but really I'd be a beachy pig if I could. Right now I'm a suburban pig.
It's crazy to only pick one thing from this shop! I want the gray dresser, a t-shirt, a garden pig, the angel bird house...
Grrr I hate it when my fingers don't type what I'm trying to tell them to!
I'm a country pig, but in college I did get used to some of the city pig lifestyle, but I'm pretty much back to being a country pig :)
I think i'm a country pig at heart with a touch of wanna be city pig. Going to take a look around "The Pink Pig" . I love that name!
I'm a country pig at heart but for now I'm on the outskirts with only a neighborhood to roam.
I love their stuff - especially the country bench.
Yes, I really need the Antique Decorative Hooks. Love Love Love them!
So much to choose from,, but i love the love spoon pendant.
I am a country pig through and though.
I am a City Pig.
I would get: either the Limognes tea cups, the Shabby Chic candle holder, or the copper cow bell and the wooden box.
because- "I need more cow bell!"
Hmmm, I'd say I'm a City Pig secretly longing to become a Country Pig~
I loved the "le maison" charm -- and the antique hooks.
Thanks for the entry chance!
Well, I'm a city pig. I love the Sweet Dreams sign!
I am a country pig wishing to be a mountain pig in the fall and an ocean pig in the summer. And I would love to spend some moola at the pin pig.
Like you, I am so a pseudo-rural, edge of the suburbs, wishing I was a Country Pig, who really needs to be near an urban area so I can satisfy my inner City Pig. Seriously!
I love the Lace Ribbed Tank by Kiyomi
in light Pink!
I'm with you in the middle. Grew up country, worked in the city and now I love both!
I am a small town longing for the country pig.
Love all the cottage furniture. The slipcovered chairs and wicker are stunning
I wish I was a city pig, but I do reckon' Imma Country Pig!! :)
Thanks!! (LOVE your blog!)
blairlinn@bellsouth.net
I'm a full-bred city pig who was uprooted a year ago moved to the middle of the corn fields of Ohio! I'm slowly learning how to be a (fun) country pig!
I'm definitely both. I grew up in a small farming community and I love all things country, but now live in a tiny cottage in a dense neighborhood in a big city. And I love my life here!
Just looked around the shop and I LOVE the Shabby Chic Candleholder. I've wanted a chandelier that looks like that, but my husband doesn't want to remove our current lighting, so it would be a perfect compromise!
im definitely a country pig!
my favorite thing on the site is the hubbard feed sack pillow!
two entries please.
I'm definitely a City Pig. Although I do like the quietness of the country. This is a great giveaway!
I'm a city pig who'd love to be a country pig! Maybe someday!
Thank you for the great giveaway!
Oh Kimba you and me have the same taste! I absolutely ADORE the Beau Solei Beau Bag! I would die if I won and it would be my first giveaway win!!! I am really getting in to the hole recycling thing!! I wish the best of luck to everyone and me!
Love, Madison
I am a city girl. I don't really live in the city but my taste is really city like!
I am a country pig that likes to live a reasonable distance from the city. I heart the chicken feed sacks pillows. I have 16 chick-a-dees right now.
I also posted about the giveaway at: www.madison-madcrafts.blogspot.com. Thanks sooooooooo much for the chance to win!!!!!!!!!
Love, Madison
I am also sort of in the middle...I like to live on the edge of a big city, but I would say at heart, I am a country pig!
I am definitely a country pig.
I love the gray striped ticking
pillow.

I am so in between. I have lived in the city & the suburbs, but I feel so wonderful when I visit the country. The country is calm, and peaceful, and my heart just melts there. But oh how I would miss my city conveniences!
I love the spoon art necklace!
I'm a small city pig - I like to get out and 'do', but don't want to be too stiffled either. I grew up in small town surrounded by country - that'd be fine, as long as there's a swimming pool, library, movie theater, and public park within 10 minutes, we're good! ;)
Totally a country pig! And I LOVE the charms!
Shelley
I grew up country pig, but now definitly lean toward city pig!!
What a wonderful giveaway!
thank you for sharing her site. :)
I think I am a city pig that wants to be a country pig.
melanieadey at hotmail dot com
I'm a wanna-be country pig living in a rural community. I, too, need to have access to city pig desires. Maybe someday I'll have chickens to maky my farm complete! LOL!
Love the Antique North Wind Vanity Mirror.
I would say I am a counrty pig! Great give away!
I grew up a country pig, and I think that even though I've lived around semi-large towns, I'm a big ol'country pig at heart. I grave trees and dirt. *lol*
As for my favorite from theshop, I love anything related to Paris, sothe necklaces were up my alley, but also the shirt with teh Lobster :)
I'm pretty sure I'm a country pig that was switched at birth with a city pig, 'cuz I'm living' the city/suburban life while dreaming of the country.
I loooove the three tiered cake stand with the bird on top! Divine.
I tweeted! Here's the link:

I'm a country pig with the need for a Target and Starbucks nearby to survive. =)
I'm definitely a City Pig living a Country Pig life.

Let's hear it for the Country Pigs! Those grain sack pillows are adorable.
I'm a suburban pig all the way! City is too big and crowded, but country is too isolated (no Target stores!) If I were forced to choose, though, I guess I'd head to the country!
I LOVE that shop! What a wonderful giveaway.
I love field peas, fried okra, screen doors, catching fireflies, sleeping under a quilt, and my tea a.s.a.p. - as sweet as possible. That makes me a country pig.
I am a little bit of both for sure, but I would have to say I lean toward city.
I love the antique decorative hooks. They could have so many uses.
I grew up as a Country Pig, but now I'm a City Pig. Course you can't take the country out of the pig ever, can you?
I think I'd pick that Honey Bushel basket of soaps and other goodies that smell good. Mmmm, I love honey!
I'm a country pig but I'm pretty sure my dh wishes I was a city pig.
Grew up a country pig but am now a city pig...
I'm probably 50/50. And I love the vintage girl charm!
I'm probably 50/50. And I love the vintage girl charm!
Oh, and I love the Ensign Brand Wood Crate! And the pillows:) ...oh, and the recycle satchel!
I like the Beau Soleil Beau Bag.
I shared on Facebook.
I'm a country pig at heart but I like to visit the city (nice place to visit but ...) I'm currently living in suburbia - the land of strip malls and chain restaurants - so I guess it's the best (or worst?) of both worlds.
I am certainly a city pig but love to visit the country just long enough to get my fill and be grateful for the city life.
and this candle holder? Is awesomeness on a stick.
http://www.pinkpigwestport.com/item_896/Shabby-Chic-Candleholder.htm
I grew up on a farm as a Country Pig. Now I'm a suburb pig, but I would love to one day be a country pig again!
I love the cake stand and shabby chic candleholder from the shop.
I'm a country pig who longs for a little of the city life. It gets lonely out her in the country you know.

Totally a country pig! I grew up on 50 acres in the middle of nowhere!
I like the Grey Stripe Ticking Pillow.
If I am not to late...I am a country pig who is lucky enought to live in the mountains. I love the Adirondack rustic dinning and Primative Country Dresser! New to your blog and loving it,thanks
I'm a rural pig wishing i could be a country pig. I {heart} the country.
