The Etsy is live (just click on the banner to visit) …
… and that is a sampling of what you’ll find at the shop.
Now in celebration of the Grand Opening, I’m giving away a monogrammed pillow. The one that I showed you how I made here …
… a personalized lumbar rosette pillow. And no. I won’t send you the one with the “b” …
I’ll custom make one especially for you. A made-to-order pillow with your own personalized font request. A made-to-order pillow with your own type style preference (upper or lower case) …
… a made-to-order pillow that I’ll send it to you all wrapped up with this hand stamped paint chip tag.
I want to be clear that this giveaway is not just for bloggers.
You can leave an anonymous comment; just be sure to leave your email address so I can contact you when you win …
Now, you have multiple chances for multiple entries …
1. Visit my Etsy shop and come back and tell me what letter, what font, and what case (upper or lower) you’d like on your winning pillow.
4. GFC and Linky friend me and – you got it – leave a fourth comment letting me know.
… and you’ll find the Google Friend Connect right there — see it? — on my sidebar.
You have until midnight EST next Friday (April 27) to enter.
Update: The Pillow Giveaway is Closed.

Congrats on launching your shop, Linda! I love the name you chose for it. And all of your items are amazing! The pillow is awesome! If I were the lucky winner, I’d choose a capital W in Modern font.
I am already (happily!) a follower of your FB page.
Oh Linda…this is terrific! What a wonderful accomplishment. You know I follow (because that’s how I am reminded every day to stop by…the little scrolly thing.) I am going to get to etsy as soon as I have planning today. I can tell you ahead of time: lowercase c, but that would be cheating, so I’ll tell you the same thing again later.
YAY for you!!
fantastic!! I am so happy for your accomplishment of getting your store up, ready and stocked! Love the name! I will go and cheer you and promote you any way I can. Love that pom pom pillow! see you at the slumber party.
YEAH! You go MOMMA! I will be adding you to my favorites and circles A SAP! Good Luck and Congratulations! p.s. be careful with those giant scissors!!
Linda,
I’m so happy for you.
It’s so difficult to choose – prolly the lmbar rosette.
(I’ve also “hearted you” as my two shops CafeD and RusticWeddingStyle – even though they are on semi-permanent vacation.)
