Name the Dress Form CONTEST/GIVEAWAY!!!

CLOSED FOR ENTRIES

Stay tuned to vote for your favorite name from Anisa's choices.

Do you remember this cute Dress Form from our 1 Craft 3 Ways post? Well, I got her at a Garage Sale for $5!!! My most exciting purchase of the summer. I love her. She is vintage... I love vintage stuff. I love the neutral brown. I love her. But, here's the thing.... she needs a name! and I need your help naming her. So, I'm going to have a contest. Read carefully...... Name the Dress Form Contest: Here's how it's going to work. You will need to leave a COMMENT with a Unique Name for her. (by unique, I mean that you need to read through the comments to make sure someone hasn't already used your name.) On Friday, Sept. 11th at 10:00 p.m. I will read through all of the comments and pick my 5 favorite names. I will then put those names up on the side bar with a poll so that our readers can vote for their favorite name. The poll will be on our site for about a week. When the poll closes, we'll see what name is everyone's favorite and my dress form will officially be named. The person that chose the name for the dress form, will win this ApROn.... I got the fabric for this apron at Pine Needles in Gardner Village. I love their fabric!!! I can't wait to see the names that everyone comes up with!!! -Anisa

I'm a little obsessed with Owls!!!

Okay, so after last month's wood craft workshops at my home, I got such a huge response to owls, that I went a little crazy.... I made a cute yard stake for my little boy's silent auction at his school (sorry, I donated it before I thought to take a picture....I guess I'll have to make another one). And my sister-in-law and I made this adorable wreath! I just love it. It's already on my front door weather it's fall or not!!!
I have been having fun designing a lot of my own wood crafts. You can find some of them finished or unfinished in my Etsy shop The Craft Menagerie (link is in our side bar). I will gradually be adding finished and unfinished products to my shop. If you are local, stay tuned for my October-themed crafts which I will be doing at the end of September.
