gussy giveaway

We are pleased to offer a fabulous giveaway today! Here is a bit about what the owner had to say: Gussy is a line of ruffled accessories. Each ruffle is machine sewn free-hand style, making each ruffle unique. About 18 months ago I sat down at my kitchen table -- I wanted to learn how to sew. And here I am now, offering wallets, zipped pouches of all sizes, laptop bags, and note cards (all with my signature ruffle) to those that love a little flair. And starting May 14, I'll be sewing exclusively on Gussy products. No more day job! : ] To read more about Gussy, click here.

The Nester wrote, "Gussy has a juicy shop full of all kinds of wonderfulness, and her blog, Gussy has a lot to say is quickly becoming a crafter’s headquarters where she features different crafters/artists and writes about her experience."

As soon as I headed over to take a look at some of the Gussy products, I about died. I am in love. Below is one of the reasons why.


Here's another...


And yet another...


Love at first sight feels so good. Anyway...I am majorly jealous of you readers who get a chance at some of these beauties. Gussy is offering one reader a chance to win a $30 shop credit to be spent at www.shopgussy.com (all baby blankets are exempt from giveaway credit). To enter, visit the shop and then come back and leave us a comment telling us your favorite item (good luck finding just one!). For a second entry follow our blog or the Gussy blog. Good luck! The giveaway ends Friday, May 21 at 11:59 pm PDT.
