while they play…

sharing pieces of myself and giving one away…


it’s been a long time coming. I was actually beginning to think it would never happen.

my new shop is finally up! while they play‘s World Premiere!
I am so giddy right now, it’s just not even funny. I am brimming, head to toe!

when I finally finished setting up shop (literally!), I sat back and looked at the projects that I so lovingly labored away on.
and it’s almost too hard to let them go. but that would defeat the whole purpose of this thing, now wouldn’t it!

I have about 6 Work’s In Progress at the moment and as soon as I finish them up I will have an update over at the shop and I ‘ll give you a heads-up here.

to celebrate this momentous occasion, I’m offering all of you, my faithful readers, a 20% discount on anything in my shop!
just enter the code: CELEBRATE in the “message to seller” box and wait for a revised invoice with the discounted price before paying.
**this special discount will expire at the first of the year! 🙂

and as promised, I am also giving away one of my bags to celebrate the shop opening!

just tell me you want your name thrown into the “hat”, by commenting on this post and I will enter you in a drawing.
I will draw one name on Thursday and the second name I draw will get a “boobie” prize! you can comment and tell your friends to comment until Wednesday the 7th @midnight PT.
and just like the last drawing I had, if you blog about the giveaway, you not only get an extra entry~you get TWO extra entries. so three total! (just let me know once you have blogged about it.) Contest is now over. winner to be announced on Friday!

now, I want you all to know that of all the bags I have ever made, this one is my absolute favorite and I am pretty teary-eyed over letting it go.
so please let it be understood, I am giving away a little piece of myself, here.

and, “Your welcome!”

  15. Hey, Dear!!

    I knew you had some fall love in you…

    I’m signing up for the FABULOUS owl bag!

    You know, owl’s are a symbol of wisdom. Therefore, I, with my infinite and superior clever skills, should really get this bag.

    You know I’m right. Just admit it. It should be mine.

    P.S. Your etsy shop is supersweet! Good work, there, little Mama!
