Welcome! Come on in, kick back and shop with me!




Let me first take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Amy, I am a Stay at Home Mom of 2 wonderful daughters who inspire me daily with their beauty both inside and out! After years of sewing and creating, I've begun selling my work. I started selling on eBay and after about a year, and fairly good results, I decided to dip my toes into the waters of Etsy.com after reading about it in a Parents Magazine article. I was instantly hooked and have barely looked back since! The foundation of Etsy is exactly what a handmade aficionado longs to find, I feel like I've found a home of sorts, a community that is both brilliant, supportive and constantly allowing me to challenge myself! I am eternally grateful for the opportunity to open up shop(s) there and along the way build great friendships with many of the members of the Etsy Community! It all started with one "thread" and we've since created a beautiful "fabric of friends" that is continuously growing. In this blog I hope to showcase some of these people and their talents, and hopefully return to them, if only an ounce, what they have so generously given to me. (awe, *wipes tear from Tammy Faye-like eyes*)

I have 2 shops on Etsy.com, take a moment to visit them by clicking the links below, and brace yourself, because next I'll be featuring shops I've found and they're AWESOME!! I will be hosting giveaway contests with my featured artists.

To kick it off I will be offering one lucky winner this bag: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=13844708

To enter for a chance to win all you have to do is comment on the post about a favorite item from either of my shops. One lucky winner will be chosen at random and will receive the item above via USPS First Class Mail. Please provide your email to qualify. If you are selected as the winner and fail to respond with mailing information within FIVE days a new winner will be selected - NO EXCEPTIONS!

Hi Amy

My friend, it was NOT easy to pick one item that is my fave in your shops. I love them all. But I did choose this, because it is so hard to find cute boy things nowadays, and this preppy outfit is so sweet:

If I had a baby boy, he would be stylin!

Hey Amy!

I'm not sure that it is possible to choose a single favorite, but one of my favorite outfits is the mint chocolate chip set:
