Hump Day Giveaway – The Itty Bitty Bag Company

Well it has been raining far to long and I know that I need a pick me up! It has been a long week of custom orders and as the rain comes pouring down and the orders are piling up (see optimism). Isn’t it about time we do a giveaway? I know it has been a while and Stacy is just about the cutest and sweetest gal on the planet. She contacted me a while ago and it was so crazy, so I asked her to follow-up and she did….

I can’t thank her enough for the write-up about me and my itty bitty company. It is so amazing to hear what others think of you. To me…I am just me. To her, I am wicked preppy! (note: if you are a teen today replace wicked with über).

I am so happy to be doing this and I really want to get to know you. So many of my customers have become my friends. So stop on over, say Hi and be sure to check out InkSpot Workshops Blog post about me.

Details of my Giveaway!!

This will be my biggest giveaway yet. I have reached many milestones and have all of you to thank. Thanks for all your continued support. As you know, facebook doesn’t allow giveaways to take place on their website, so you’ll have to do it on my blog. That is just the way it is. You can enter once or more than once. A winner will be chosen by (random.org). The winner will win either a “Bitty Handbag”, an “Accessory Gift Set”, or a $25 donation to the charity of your choice in your name. The fabric selection will also be your choice but it must be fabric I have in stock. The giveaway will start on Monday September 13th and will end with a winner announced on Friday September 17th.

Here is a sample of a bitty: http://www.etsy.com/listing/52751500/apples-and-pears-itty-bitty-handbag

An accessory gift set is your choice of 3 (keyfob, wallet, coffee cozy, or tiny zipper pouch): http://www.etsy.com/transaction/21766356

Second Entry: Go to my Etsy shop  and comment back on this blog what your favorite item is from my Etsy shop and why, what do you want to see more of, and have you ever purchased from me?

Good Luck!

All the best,

Fabric Square Giveaway has ended!

Fabric Square Giveaway has ended!

My giveaway has ended and 3 winners have been chosen. Our best work is not what we leave behind but skills we teach our youth. Take time to share your craft with your little ones. I hear so many stories of mom’s that sew and their children never got the opportunity to learn. Get them involved and excited. My yo yo project is a great one. So many things you can do with yo yo’s and little ones as young as 5 or 6 can and are able to do it.

Thanks to everyone for your support.

My best, Jen

Fabric Square Giveaway!

Fabric square giveaway! I really love the opportunity to get kids involved in crafting. So this giveaway is for the wee ones. I have 10 envelopes ready to ship. Each child can only win one envelope.

These squares would be great to fill out the rest of the summer with creative gift ideas for the holidays. Once school starts, you’ll have a hard time finding the time, so get them crafting and put them away for great gifts for family or even present toppers that make the store bought gift super special. These squares are great for Yo Yo Flowers (see my Utube video www.youtube.com/ittybittybag), Scrapbooking, Cards for friends & family, Beginner quilting, Bookmarks, Sachets, Collages, And I am sure many other fantastic ideas!

To enter my giveaway here is what you can do, each item counts as an entry. Winner will be chosen via random number generator (random.org). Each child can only win once but each entry improves your chances of winning. 4 possible entries.

1. Tell me where you follow me: Twitter, Facebook, utube, flickr, wordpress (tell me your id – so I can follow you back, exposure for you)

2. Tweet about my giveaway (make sure you include your tweet in your comment)

3. Blog about my giveaway (provide the link to your blog article – great free exposure for you)

4. Tell me what item in my shop is your favorite (great exposure for me)

That is all. The deadline for entry is Friday August 6th 11am Eastern time. Good luck. After I announce the winners, I will contact you about delivery.

Thanks again for all your support. I hope we can teach our youth a little bit about handmade and how truly special it is. My best, Jen

Itty Bitty Bag Company Giving Back

Burlap Itty Bitty Handbag

I approached my friend Kate about donating one of my handbags to a charity event that she was hosting at her home. The charity event was a huge success and was to benefit Kids in Crisis. Kate suggested that another friend/colleague of mine Caroline of Spotted Dog Jewelry also wanted to donate an item and that we combine our items for auction. We both very excitedly said YES!

Here is a picture of the auction which looks absolutely beautiful. Many thanks to Tara Sharma Photography for taking such a cute picture.

Glad I was able to participate and continue my mission of giving back. You can read more about Kids in Crisis a local charity organization at their website.

My giveaway has ended and 3 winners have been chosen.

My giveaway has ended. The winners are:

The Pinkalicious Heidi Grace headband goes to: Kirsty

The Aqua Brown Michael Miller headband goes to: Renee

The Palm Trees Michael Miller headband goes to: Abbi

Please send an email to jen@ittybittybag.com and include your mailing address.

Thanks so much everyone. I look forward to the next accomplishment/giveaway. Thanks for your continued support.

Jen

700 Facebook Fans…

I am so so happy about reaching this milestone. The last 30 fans took so long and I have had just as many fluctuations during that time, 1 fan up, 1 fan down. I am so incredibly gratetful for everyone’s support, comments and likes. Your feedback has helped me with future designs. I think we have a pretty active page and that makes me happy.

Okay Okay….so your wondering what my special giveaway will be? My first giveaway was a coffee cozy and my second was a ”you pick” accessory and she picked the twitter ipod cozy. I don’t blame her, that little birdie was super cute!

So with summer approaching quickly how about I give away one of these fantastic headbands. Maybe I should give away all three of these headbands. Yep, that will work. I am giving away all three headbands.

You must either become a fan on facebook, follow me on twitter, or follow my blog.

For your entry, go to my Etsy shop and comment back on this blog what your favorite item from my Etsy shop is with a link to that item and tell us whether you follow me on facebook, twitter or are a blog follower!
