Just a reminder that my Giveaway for the pretty embellished bottle ends at midnight tonight ~ June 30th ~ so you still have time to enter by clicking for details HERE I'll be announcing the winner on Thursday, July 1st along with a NEW Giveaway!! And today's post will give you a little hinty as to what it will be for :-)
I don't know if I've mentioned before, but I've been selling my handmades on ebay for 12 years . . . since the good old days before Paypal, Priority Mail, convenient digital cameras and Online Shipping!
One of my favorite things to make for you are Christmas Stockings! Traditional styles with shabby sweet appeal using romantic rose fabrics, laces, handmade ribbon roses, glitzy rhinestone details and even vintage images. Below are 4 examples of previous sold stockings . . .
Next you will see my favorite style of stocking which are the Mini Stocking or Booty Sachet Ornaments! I've offered these for 7 years and they are so cute to display on doorknobs, chair backs, peg shelves, cabinet knobs, or hanging on Christmas trees. Most are stuffed with fiberfluff and French lavender buds
And not only roses but other colors too :-))
One thing you will never hear me say is "Egads the stores have the Christmas decorations out already and it's only July!!"Personally, I LOVE it! I am so inspired seeing all the stores with their decorations and holiday crafting supplies and a July start seems just perfect! And could there ever be anything wrong with being in the Christmas Spirit for 6 months :-)
My Traditional size stockings will again be available at Victoria Rose Cottage this year and the mini stockings on ebay and also on Etsy this year!
Please meet me here on Thursday for the Embellished Bottle winner announcement and to see the newest giveaway I have for you!!
Hugs, Smiles and Blessings

Beautiful as always!! I have always watched your Ebay items & was in awe of all the embellishments that you use. You must have an amazing stash of bling :)
ReplyDeleteThere is a reason that you were one of the most popular on Ebay.... your items are AMAZING!!!!
If you are a seller of Christmas items, June/July is not to early to start making...
I do wool items & last year could not keep up...this year, I "plan" to sew all summer to be ready :)
(someday I will post what I do :)
Oh wow they are all so gorgeous! They have such a pretty whimsical feel that I just adore! What a sweet treat!
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Holly
