I am so excited to be talking about one of my favorites today, BRITTANY of Brittany Garner Design!

(As part of my Etsy series, she will also be on my sidebar through August!)

I met her back when we were brand new mamas and we immediately hit it off. She's hilarious, so creative, so honest and she really is one of my favorite people! I think so highly of her, in fact, that I've already arranged for Violet to marry her son, Harrison. (So, Violet - not to worry, you don't have to go one ANY dates, you already have a husband. When you turn 30, of course.)

Brittany designed the amazing invitations for Violet's 1st Birthday party and I couldn't have been happier with them. It was so special to me to have completely customized invitations and she made exactly what I wanted. Brittany is just so so easy to work with and not annoyed at all when wishy washy people like me constantly e-mail her with changes or new ideas :) She just wants to make her client happy!

One of my other favorites is this sweet print I ordered from her. (It's way prettier in person than my crappy camera shows!) She customized it to match those birthday invitations I loved so much. Even "Malynn" is in gold glitter!! Just another perfect creation from BGD :)

Aside from her custom work, she has some really cute prints available in her Etsy shop AND she just added gold and silver foil prints! Hello, pretties! She just added them to her shop yesterday and they're nearly sold out!

So you want in on some of this awesomeness?

 

 

(She even made this graphic! SO. CUTE.)

 

Just enter below by next Tuesday, the 23rd, to win!
I will announce the winner on Wednesday.

April Etsy Shop + A Giveaway!

I'm a few days late with this but I'm so excited to finally share my Etsy sponsor for April,

The Rogue Baby!

 

 

I "met" Ricki of Rogue Baby when I was searching Etsy for a new headband for Violet and I fell in love with the headband on the left. Adorable, no? :) 

Ricki has a blog too so we kept in touch after and I immediately went back to her when I was  looking for a custom headband (up there on the right) for Violet's 1st birthday. She matched the colors perfectly and gave me exactly what I wanted!!! Unfortunately on the day of the party, V yanked it off before we left the house and somehow it got left behind. I was totally bummed that she didn't get to wear it at her party but I will find any excuse for this girl to wear it another time or two ;)

 

The Rogue Baby offers not only headbands, rompers and other accessories for baby girls but if you don't have a baby to shop for, you can buy YOURSELF things like elastic hair ties, elastic headbands, shoe clips and you know, ladies can wear the adorable headbands too! Her site is great for buying accessories for a bridal party or just every day dolling up :) She can make custom items too!

Ricky is giving away a $15 credit to her shop!

Announcement + A GIVEAWAY!

Happy Friday!! And holy crap - Happy March, too!

I'm happy to report that I survived the emotional day known as V's 1st Birthday yesterday. We had the best day with her and she was knocked out by 8pm (early for her) so we know she had a great day too! :) But more on that next week - today I have some fun news to share!

Starting this month, I'm going to post about one Etsy shop every month to help spread the word about them AND I'll also host a giveaway and offer a discount from that shop! Fun, right? The shop will also be advertised on the "Etsy Sponsor" tab above and on my sidebar for the month. I have a slight addiction to Etsy and have met so many amazing and creative women because of it so this is  my way of recognizing their shops! :)

Now I'm excited to introduce you to my March shop -
Chip and Chisel!!

Lindsy is the lovely lady behind Chip & Chisel and I was totally blown away by how many awesome pieces she offers in her shop and that they're also really affordable! She has a wide variety of hand stamped items but also a lot of non personalized items as well. I had been looking for a "mom" necklace for quite some time when I happened upon her shop and immediately fell in love!

 

After talking to Lindsy on the phone, I could tell right away how passionate she is about her shop and her jewelry. She takes a lot of pride in her products and is big on engaging with her customers on Facebook - y'all know how I feel about customer service so that really stood out to me! I couldn't be happier to tell you now first hand how great Lindsy is to work with! She was quick to respond to emails, my necklace arrived in just a few days and the final product is perfect!

 

This is the bar necklace that she personalized for me.

It has both Violet's name and birth date which is so special to me and I'm obsessed with it!

It's trendy, not mom-ish (which is just what I wanted!), and just really dainty and pretty.

I like so many of her other pieces that it's really hard to only show you a few! 

1 / 2 / 3
4 / 5 / 6
7 / 8 / 9

And because Lindsy is so awesome, she's giving away a

$50 credit to her shop!
