The Winnings

Congratulations, Tricia! 

Hope you are enjoying your new sweet baby bows! 

My personal favorite is that purple flower. 

I ended up making one for my girls too, I loved it that much!

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!

I reached OVER 1000 followers, so there IS a winner! The winner for the Pinterest giveaway is... 

Tricia M!!!!

She has already been contacted about her lucky win. Once I've completed her handmade item, I'll post pics here. I'm excited to get to work on a personalized gift! 

Congratulations, Tricia! 

Thanks to EVERYONE who follows me! Wish I could make you ALL a gift! (but that would take way too much time...)

A Handmade (by ME!) Giveaway!

Guess what? I've got nearly 1000 followers on Pinterest! Crazy, right? 

I've been brainstorming what to do to celebrate when I reach that milestone... and it just seems appropriate to do a thank you giveaway! 

When I reach 1000, I will use random.org to choose one of YOU to receive a handcrafted by me item *of my choosing! I'll enter all followers (exceeding 1000 is fine with me--- don't panic if you are follower #1001!) who follow by this Friday, April 17th (Or til I have 1000 followers, whichever one comes last). Not on Pinterest? Sorry, this is definitely a Pinterest giveaway. Wish it was Instagram? Sorry, I'm not an Instagram gal... yet...:) If you follow me on Pinterest already, never fear: you're already in the running. If you DON'T follow me, jump in folks! I will contact the winner personally to notify them of the win and get info for the prize!

*I plan to tailor the item to the winner individually, so please allow me some time to make it. Don't be checkin your mailbox for at least a couple of weeks!

Pay it Forward: Just for Fun a Random Gift Giveaway

A friend of mine posted this on her blog and I have gladly decided to play along. How about spreading some creative sunshine? And I LOVE giving gifts! (I couldn't abide by the 'draw-one-member-of-the-family-to-give-a-gift' rule this year--- I gifted to each individual!)

Edited from Sara's blog:

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. If you have a request, I'd be happy to entertain it...(within reason, of course, and my budget.) This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:

1-I make no guarantees that you will like what I make for you! But I hope you will...
2-What I create will be just for you. Or maybe a member of your family if you'd rather.
3-Give me at least til August to finish, please, unless you are moving and need it sooner... then I'm sure we can work something out. And if you are long distance, I'll probably send via cheapest shipping.

The catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to post this same information on their blog and leave a comment telling me they did will win a lovely homemade gift by me! Have fun with this!
