They also have a few $5 t-shirts left.

GoodieJar sent me a pair of earrings to review and while I haven’t worn them myself (crazy allergy issue which we will not get into), I can tell you that they are even prettier in person and that the quality is fabulous.

Good Monday morning! I’ve already rifled through an entire candy display at the grocery store on a quest for Hershey’s Candy Cane Kisses this morning, how about you? (Found four bags wedged between boxes at the back of the display and bought them all.)

Before we get to our fabulous giveaway, I want to remind you all that TOMORROW is the day for the Nativity Parade I’m hosting!

Get your nativities out and get them posted and then stop by tomorrow to link up!

Random tangent: HOLY CRAP! I just realized Keller will be 8 in 45 days. FORTY FIVE DAYS!!! That = baptism and scriptures, if you’re a Mormon.

Don’t have a baby and aren’t a Mormon? She’s got some darling reversible headbands.

Good (?) Monday morning!

I opened the shutters to my (2nd story) bedroom this morning and saw this:

And then I got stuck a whole lot of times taking kids to school (hint: 4). Thanks to the random neighbor dude out snow blowing who pushed us or I’d probably still be there now. Good times. Good times.

Did I mention some of us are also enjoying pink eye? Blah.

New project post coming this afternoon! For now, go win something!

Meet Diana from Raspberry Creek Fabrics. She’s got a fun little Etsy shop where she sells fabric and trim.

Did you know there was Amy Butler LINEN???

Pretty sure I need some.

And I think I need some of this, too.

I have no idea what I’d do with it, but that’s never stopped me from buying fabric before. Sometimes I even make up a “project” before I go in the store so that when the lady at the cutting table asks, I won’t look like a fabric hoarding fool.

Speaking of my fabric hoarding tendencies, I’ve been hanging onto some of this for a couple of years now.

I could have just bought more from Diana! Who knew?

Diana also carries blanket bundles, aka 2 yards of fabrics already coordinated for you and perfectly sized for blanket making. She can hemstitch the edges, too, if you want.

Gearing up for some holiday projects? Diana’s got you covered.

(I feel like I NEED to make someone some pajamas out of this flannel!)

So, what’s in it for you

Diana is giving one lucky Crap I’ve Made reader a FIVE YARD bundle (1 yard of each of 5 different fabrics). You can choose between the following:

I totally have most of those on the right set aside to make a bag for Macy. See? Hoarding issues!

TO ENTER:

Click on over to Raspberry Creek Fabrics and have a look around. Come back and leave a comment ON THIS POST (on the blog, not on Facebook or in response to your email subscription) with what your favorite fabric in the shop is.

I’d like you to meet Jamie from Three Scoops of Love and introduce you to her handmade jewelry. I own one of her pieces, and I love it.

See? That’s my anniversary and initials.

She offers a number of personalized options, like this Eternity Necklace:

And some really unique pieces, too. I love this modern locket.

Are you a sports fan? (Or, do you need to do some Christmas shopping for someone that is? )

Want a unique way to show your school spirit? This graduation necklace would be perfect.

And if I hadn’t retired from my guitar playing career (after only 4 lessons), I’m pretty sure I’d need one of these:

(Thank your lucky stars I quit. I’d probably have gotten so good I’d be touring the country instead of writing this blog…ha!)

So, what’s in it for you?

Jamie is giving one lucky Crap I’ve Made reader their choice of *any* item in her shop!

TO ENTER:

Click on over to Three Scoops of Love and have a look around. Come back and leave a comment ON THIS POST (on the blog, not on Facebook or in reply to your email subscription) saying which item in Jamie’s shop you’d choose if you won.
