Have you seen Dayspring's new line of kitchen and tableware products? Fabulous! It's called the Life Collection and it features the Bible verse John 10:10 (NIV), "I come that they might have life and have it to the full." Those words bring joy to my heart. The generous (and really nice) folks at Dayspring sent me some samples of the collection to use in my home.
And use them, I did. It took me exactly 3 minutes from the moment it arrived on my doorstep to fill this gorgeous pitcher with my Sam's Club daisy bouquet. I'm in love! Wouldn't this pitcher make a fantastic Mother's Day gift filled with some inexpensive flowers? You could fill it with asparagus and it would still be beautiful.
We had friends coming over Friday right after my box of goodies arrived from Dayspring. I couldn't resist using them. Look how nice the platter makes my store-bought cupcakes look and my strawberries look extra yummy in in the Life Collection bowl.
And a few angel food cake crumbs don't make the dinner plate any less beautiful.
Yes, the entire collection is beautiful. Each piece is like a little work of art. But they're practical too. Each piece is dishwasher and microwave safe. That makes the coffee mug my favorite since I rarely get to finish a cup of coffee without having to reheat it.
I just couldn't resist doning this adorable apron and pretending to be a domestic diva. What is that thing in my hand anyway? ;-)

I love those!! Hard to pick one thing, so instead I'll pick the 4-piece place setting--I love the way the patterns go together. They make me smile!
and here's my post on my blog!

I like the b&w dessert plate. Cute! Thanks!

I would love to get some more coffee mugs. They are completely my weakness. That apron looks really cute as well...
The pitcher is my fave! I love how colorful these things are:)
I love them all, but my favorite it the place setting. It's very original as well as beautiful and would match my kitchen so well :)
I love the platter and the coffee mug. I can't pick just one! What a cool give-away!
I love this collection! It would make a great mothers day gift to myself.
laragraham@yahoo.com
I love the Life Collection-16" platter. It would be a great addition to my kitchen!
The Blue Bread Plate is my favorite!
I would love some of these pieces! They match my fiesta but also bring in white. C'mon random generator. Pick me for once!!
I like the Life Collection – 6" Blue Bowl. It perfect for my kitchen colors!
Oh, I am hoping I win one of these from one of you. I can't pick, since I love dishes. And look at you in your domestic diva look. Could you get into it? I have started buying vintage aprons and love them. I do want that one as well. :)
Off to tweet it, and blog about it.
It's a toss up between the pitcher and the coffee mug, they're all gorgeous!

"What's that thing in my hand, anyway"
too funny!
you look really cute in the apron and thanks for the link!
That whole collection is adorable! I love the coffee mugs. I also think you look cute in the apron!!
Coffee mug and bowls for me! :-)
I really like the platter and the little 'life' plates. :)
They are beautiful, I'd love to win!!
I love all of the pieces, but the black and white pieces with just a touch of color are awesome. Love the super big coffee mug!
I love the pitcher!
I love Dayspring. It's headquarters is in the town where we used to live, and there is a great outlet store where they have deeply discounted items. Love it!
This new collection is lovely-I like all of it. Especially the Life Collection Bowl. The colors are beautiful.
How do you pick just one? I love the place setting! I can picture my table set right now!
I don't think I can choose just one they are all so beautiful and fun. Thank you for the chance to play.
I like the large pitcher the best; I can see it displayed in my kitchen every day
I love the little salad or dessert plates (?) that say 'life'. My daughter's getting married June 13 and has simple green dishes, and a set of those dessert plates would really make them 'pop'!!! The dishes are really beautiful!
probably the pitcher, then the coffee mugs, then the platters, then.... Thanks for hosting!
I really like the Red 10" breakfast plate. It just makes you smile.

All those pieces are great, but the best is the apron! You look absolutely adorable in it! Oh and BTW that's a whisk....it's for whisking things....hee hee hee :)
I LOVE the coffee mug...I'm drinking my morning coffee out of a much-smaller mug this morning. With a 17-month old, I need a bigger cup! :)

I love the 16' oval platter with "I have come that they might have Life, and have it to the full." Although, I would hang it on my wall, not serve on it--it's beautiful!

Heres my tweet :)

Oh, Kimba! How you make me smile. You're adorable in your apron. It's called a whisk, BTW. You use it to mix things. Isn't that amazing? ;) I love, love, love the Dayspring oval platter with Life written in all the different languages. I saw it over on Nester last week and have been drooling over it ever since. If I won, that's what I'd get. Actually, I'd get 2 and send one to my mom. She'd love it too. So pick me. Cause I'd share the wealth.
I love the platter! Thank you so much!!
I'd like to hang the blue and black platter on my wall.
I think they are all so cute! I love the picture of you in your apron!
It's hard to pick a favorite, but I think I'll go with 6" bread plate. So cute!
I tweeted the giveaway: http://twitter.com/punkinmama/status/1696377439
I LOVE the bowl and plate (the strawberries look good too)!! And the messages make it all the more beautiful!!
I love the pitcher! The place setting is really nice as well. I love it all!
Oh Kimba - I think I'm in love! Now, those dishes could inspire a meal. I like the line with the reds, they would be oh-so-pretty in my home.

I must say that the coffee mug is my favorite. Love it!
I am a pitcher addict! I love pitchers! So I would have to say the large pitcher. I looked at the medium one in blue but it just does not sing to me like the large colorful one.
I think I would buy the platter. So cute...I love all of it. I hope it's my lucky day!

I'm totally out of the twitter loop. But I'm leaving a comment! They're all gorgeous pieces, but I'd have to say I love both the blue and red mugs. But those are really beautiful plates, too!
By the way, I'm holding a giveaway myself! Come early, come often! Just kidding. It's a sweet birdie tassel.
Oh, and I still haven't made my mind up yet. I guess you can tell I probably won't before Mother's Day. : )

I love the bowl that the strawberries are in.
I think every piece of it is beautiful! I think I would have go go with the 4 piece place setting though. I can just see it as a grouping hanging on a wall in my kitchen. It's too pretty not to be displayed all the time!

Honestly...I LOVE the ENTIRE collection. No joke! I would love to be able to bless my mom with the Blue 12” Large Dinner Plate. She is always making goodies for my dad to bring when he visits the elderly, those in the hospital, or does other pastoral visits. I think this plate would be a lovely way to share the homebaked goodies with a biblical reminder under it all!
