Dolly Giveaway!

One of my favorite things in the whole world is dolls. I love dollies of all kinds, shapes, sizes. I think this might be because I was a terrible tomboy when I was a child, and didn't play with dolls very much. It also might be because I have 2 boys (now teenagers), and they never wanted to play with dolls, so my doll-playing has been very limited. Now that I'm OLD, all I want is dolls.



Here's one that is so gentle and sweet....


This Wee Jersey Girl is made from a super-soft newborn onesie upcycled into a doll. She is stuffed with clean wool and has a very plain face--in fact, she has no facial features at all. She's a perfect toy for a newborn as a baby gift, for a one-year-old as a birthday gift, or to stick into a new kindergartner's backpack as a lovely during rest time. She is about 8" tall (not counting her floppy hat).
And she could be YOURS!

Her designer is Faerie Rebecca. There's other dolls in her shop, that I dare not post pictures of here for fear of falling too much in love with them. I encourage you to visit her shop - in fact, if you want to enter this giveaway, you will have to!

So - here are the rules:
1. Visit FAERIEREBECCA'S SHOP. !While you are there, pick your favorite thing from her shop.

2. Come back here to my blog, and leave a comment with your favorite item.

3. Your name will be entered TWICE if you blog about this contest. Please come back and leave a comment with a link to your blog entry.
It could be on your blog or a friends' blog....just somewhere else!

4. PLEASE NOTE: Your email address MUST be present in your comment, or in your blogger profile. If not, you will have to be disqualified. Lots of times, just because you are registered with blogger, does not mean I have access to your information.

5. Contest will end one week from today, November 24th, at 12 midnight.
Thank you for playing!!

WE HAVE A WINNER! Random.org chose #3! Thanks to all who entered!! Happy Thanksgiving!

Stop back soon for more awesome giveaways!

Natural Kids Store!!!

If you're a reader of my blog, you'll know that I'm a member of the Etsy Natural Kids Team. (In fact, I'm one of the co-leaders).

Our team is made up of 90 Etsy shops; and we all make items for children using natural materials. Wool, cotton, wood. There are doll-makers, and needle-felters, and wood-carvers, and knitters (Woolies!). There are some of THE most talented artisans on Etsy, in my humble opinion.

So, some of us have decided that we need to advertise OFF Etsy. So we've started an advertising collective. This is what I do in my 'day-job', so this is a natural for me (no pun intended)!.

The problem with advertising on-line, is - you have to have a place to link your ad to. How do you link your ad to numerous different shops? You can't.

Well.......we found a way. !!! Please visit Natural Kids Store.com. It is a gateway to all of the wonderful shops that are participating in these ads. Rebecca, who owns faerierebecca, and makes georgeous fabulous dolls, designed the website. (with her husband).

Please come visit! I would love to hear what you think!

Thanks again to Rebecca and Dave!!!
