So, You Think Give-Aways are a Waste of Time?

Many folks think that entering these give-aways that are posted all over the internet are a waste of time.  You think "I will never win so why bother?"

Well, I want to show you the amazing things I have won from internet give-aways in the past 6 months.  These are all etsy sellers and the items were won either by a blog or Facebook giveaway.

First is the amazing Midnight Orange!  I won this adorable sculpture and as soon as I opened the box my daughter was desperate to play with it.  The Midnight Orange has an awesome Facebook page where she truly shares her heart and her creations.  Her fans are like a little family and I just love it!

Secondly,  I won this headband through a facebook give away from Sugar Blossom Boutique.  It is super cute and comfy and looks super cute on!

Next we have an absolutely amazing wooden box that has been decorated beautifully by Eliza Lenore.  I can't imagine how long it would have taken to burn this design into the wood.

Finally we have another absolutely beautiful headband by ChinnyLuLu.  The butterfly is made from beads and sequins and the feather is so fun.

Introducing TJ and a Giveaway

One of the best parts of selling on Etsy is all the awesome people you meet.  Let me introduce you to TJ of TJLundinCO.  She is a super sweet, newly married young lady.  She is making and selling fun jewelry and hair accessories.

Here is a little about TJ:

Tell us how your shop got started? My shop started because I wanted a way to help out financially and yet do something that wasn't too stressful and fun! Since I'm a full time college student and newlywed, this was the perfect hobby. 

Describe yourself in 5 words: bubbly, musical, faithful, silly, and funny

What's your favorite thing to do when not creating?  I love to hang out with my hubby, playing games, watching movies, shopping, and swing dancing! Being a newlywed I've discovered that I love to bake. So I always have something yummy to eat.

What's your shop mission/goal?  My goal is to make someone's life a little more special by sharing pieces of my personality through my creations. I also want to shine forth God's light in the way I live, and hopefully that will show within the stuff I create and also by meeting me :-)

Whats your fav candy bar?  3 musketeers bar! I just love chocolate!

So TJ is giving away one of her adorable headbands to one lucky winner.  The winner will get to pick 1 of 3 headbands.  US winner will get the headband sent to them for free but an international winner will be asked to pay for the shipping.
