Grand Autumn Giveaway


Welcome to my blog.  Today I am celebrating 100 sales in my folksy shop!  I don’t think I ever thought about achieving this milestone.  As each month passes, if I have any sales, it is really lovely and such a nice bonus!  I love doing what I do, creating beautiful bags, purses, notebooks and journals.  I love all kinds of fabric, lace, buttons, ribbon, and I find it very exciting choosing and combining the materials that I have into something special and unique.

Autumn is a lovely time of the year so as well as having a giveaway, I am featuring some lovely autumnal items from the September Sellers daily listing club.  Aren’t they just beautiful?
 




For my Grand Autumn Giveaway I am looking for two lucky people – the Winner and a Runner up.

The Winner will receive:
 
v A beautiful tapestry fabric clutch bag with black velvet ribbon and lace trim and a vintage button closure.
 
v A large brocade fabric bag with white drawstring closure and handle. 
 
v A lovely A6 notebook.

   
The Runner up will receive:
 
v A vintage style bag with wrist handle made from burgundy faux suede, and burgundy wool fabric. This has a pink sequin and lace trim on the front.
 
v A burgundy corded fabric purse with an appliqué of a boat on the front.
v A lovely A6 address book.
All the giveaway prizes will make lovely gifts, if you decide not to keep them for yourself. 
 



What do you have to do to enter? 
In my folksyshop I have a number of notebooks and journals for sale. What I would like you to do is browse them all and choose your favourite. Please leave a comment on this post as to why it is your favourite notebook or journal.  Simple?  All the folk who make a comment will be entered into the draw. The Giveaway will close at 9pm on Wednesday 12th September 2012.  The Winner and Runner up will be chosen randomly and I assure you it will be done very fairly.  I will notify the winner and runner up and post the results on my blog. Good luck!

 



Finally, I hope you have enjoyed looking at the lovely items from the September Sellers daily listing club.  Do click on the photo and it will take you directly to their shop.  There have been some really fabulous items listed recently, and it has been really difficult to choose a small selection! Enjoy!

  1. My favourite is the A6 Handmade children’s note books. OK so they are aimed at children but I love the handbag fabric. I love the bright colours, maybe it's the inner child in me that's drawn to those bright colours.

  7. Lovely blog, and thanks for including my Autumn Nature's Harvest painting - that's prize enough for me :)

    My favourite journal is the travel one, I like the vintage look and most importantly it has a closing mechanism.

    Congrats on the sales!

  9. Congratulation on reaching your Century!!!! So exciting!

    Thank you so much for including my coiled rope handbag in your feature gallery, such a lovely selection and it looks very much at home in such good company!

    You know I love your items, and there is such a wealth to choose from, but I think I have narrowed it down to one, but I am fickle so ask me later and I may have changed my mind again.

    For now my favourite is the silk brocade notebook.

    It is such a classical creation and I adore the colours!!!

  15. You have some gorgeous items! Of the notebooks and journals, my favourite is the A6 handmade children's notebooks; I really like the bright colours, funky fabrics and I think they would get lots of use! (I was also quite taken with the set of three too as they look fantastic and I could keep one in my bag, one by the phone and one for recipes).

    Congratulations on your success so far!
