Giveaway!~Fav’s on Etsy..Support Handmade

A few months I found a wonderful Etsy seller LemonDropsShop. I purchased some cute hair clips for Evie hoping they would be the set that actually stayed in her baby wisps

Boy was I (and Erika) pleasantly surprised….they worked! With no fuss or pulled strands! Very well made, no loose or frayed ends. Needless to say we’ve picked up a few other sets.

I looked at them at first and thought I could make these….after checking in to the supplies we decided it wasn’t worth the bother as the pricing she offers can’t be beat!

A Mom of twins, who knows what is useful and works amid all the baby garb..after all she has 2 product testers in residence!

I’d been looking at her bibs for our “Drool Diva” and When she offered a give away a few months ago I signed up!…

And won!

I really like her nontraditional baby prints, bright & cheerful but not overly cutesy. The second bib I ordered after winning. I’m not sure what she uses in the construction but, they are to date leak proof & great size to protect clothing.

Her shop is full of baby fun & user friendly items. She has recently started stuffed animals….with her own touch! Look at this Hippo, is he not the cutest thing?

I ordered this Star Crayon for Hayden, Its a great size for little hands to hold on to.

I just wish I’d had this post completed early enough for Christmas as her items are wonderful, she offers the customer a variety of fabrics and patterns to select, her customer service is EXCELLENT! Fast shipping and gift packaging!

So, as a belated gift to readers, I’m having a giveaway!

I ordered an extra “Star Crayon” which will be great as a stash gift or for your own little one!

Here are the rules,

Leave a comment telling me your favorite baby item in her shop….(be sure and look at her sold items also) for an entry

Link the giveaway on your blog for another entry & let me know, for a 2nd entry

Tweet and or face book for a 3rd/4th entry..(These can be as many as you’d like)

The drawing will be held Christmas Eve, and announced by the 26th. A quickie!

So, what are you waiting for….go check LemonDropsShop out!

Talk To Me Tuesday

Have you heard about the new e-magazine

“Ruby”?
It’s written by women, for women!

After all who knows us better right!
Think of sitting around the kitchen table with a group of your girlfriends chatting,

sharing funny stories, swapping recipes, crafting ideas,

gardening & even home school projects.

That’s the goal of “Ruby”

Something for women of all ages & family stages.

In fact, much of the content will be from you the readers
When was the last time you found a magazine with

paper dolls or stationary!

Remember how fun that was?
And, I’m so excited as I have been blessed with the awesome opportunity

to write the WAHM (Work at Home Mom) column!
I’ll be covering everything from juggling time between work & family,

to budgets (eww! The B word) & marketing.

So, I’ll be looking for input from all the WAHM’s out there!

Interested in being interviewed?
Contact me using the link above & let me know, I’d love to chat with you.

Best of all “Ruby” will contain no advertisements, except for the WAHM ads!
And those ….drum roll please…will be FREE!

Yes, I said FREE!
To submit your ad, you can go to “Ruby” or send them to me.

You will have a 4x4 ad, so send graphics & a link

If you hurry, you should still be able to
be in the JUL/AUG issue.
Any questions? Contact me using the link above & let me know,

I’d love to hear from you!
