I am a designer, crocheter, and knitter. I come from Dutch heritage, hence my name. I enjoy all sorts of things, like writing, reading, singing, music, playing guitar, flowers, that sort of thing.
Right now I am working on a baby blanket design, crocheted in cotton yarn. I hope to have it finished and ready for testing by the end of this month. I can't wait to post pictures, but I sure hope ya'll can be patient! ;)
Talk to ya'll later!
It may seem strange to start a blog with a post about giveaways, but, as my designing work is currently classified, and I wish to have more entries for some giveaways, well, here it is! ;)
First up are a bunch of giveaways from Simply Stacie.
The Fairytale Brownies giveaway is an opportunity to win some Fairytale Truffles. They look very good! I visited the Fairytale Brownies website, and I think if I were to purchase something right now, it would most likely be the Fairytale Medley, because then I could have a taste of everything! Tweeted!
Next, Stacie is giving away a "Laundry Mom" T-shirt from LTDChix. I would be lying if I said that I didn't want the shirt for me, because I do do the laundry around here. However, if I won, I would give the shirt to my mother who will have to take over with the laundry in a few years when I move out. ;) If I could choose which shirt to get, I would probably pick the long-sleeved red Laundry Mom shirt. Tweeted!
Do you want one pillowcase or two? My favorites are these very girly travel and standard cases. Aren't they lovely? Sew, sew cute! Tweeted!
A Dream List Photo Journal can help you reach for the sky, it seems. I love the concept! I think the travel-themed journal is particularly pretty, don't you? Tweeted!
I like handmade soaps, and the Goat Milk Stuff Stacie is giving away looks almost good enough to eat! I would probably choose the Oatmeal, Milk and Honey scent, but Lilac and Lavender are extremely close seconds. Tweeted!
I love jewelry, and Stacie is giving away some lovely pieces. I was not surprised to learn that I would be a Fire Element, even though I don't believe in stuff like that, it's still very interesting. I had guessed before I even read the descriptions! After visiting Searcey Designs, I fell in love with the simplicity of the cross pendant. What a lovely way to share your faith! I also love the Butterfly Ring. Tweeted!
Because I Love You, My Valentine, and a butterfly pendant necklace are just three of the options for you to win in Stacie's Heidi's Jewelry Design Giveaway. Aren't they exquisite? Tweeted!
The Nimli giveaway just may be my favorite. I love the pashmina wrap, but after visiting the Nimli site, I find myself torn between the EcoSkin Lodestone Dress and the Azuri Bamboo Cashmere Shawl in Eggplant. Simply gorgeous! Tweeted!
From Icing on a Cupcake is a chance to win some lovely artwork. I particularly enjoy this Birds in Nest piece. :) Tweeted!
Stacie is giving someone a Natura World pillow. It looks marvelously comfy. If I could, I would get the silk comfortor! Tweeted!
How about a $15 gift certificate to All Things Girly? I chose three favorites: Sweet Strawberry Clippies, Sweet Heart Clippies, and Sweet Pink Flower Clippies. Darling! Tweeted!
I've never worn much makeup, but Stacie has some pretty eyeshadow to give away. I especially like Luire's Monet Face Lip and Eye collection. Tweeted!
Stacie wonders who has ever read any of James Patterson's books. I haven't, but it might be interesting! ;) Tweeted!
I love clothes as much as any girl. And it seems Stacie does too! She's giving away a $25 gift certificate to Layers Clothing. What would I get? The classicly lovely Dorothy. Tweeted!
I would post more, but it's off to bed for now. Perhaps I shall post an intro post next! ;)
