BETH MARIE 10 @ ETSY
http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6062303
Hi to all,
My name is Beth, I’m 24 years old. I’ve been married to the love of my life and highschool sweetheart, Jeremy, for 4 years (been together 6 years). We have a beautiful daughter, who is almost 2 years old. She sure is handful sometimes but we love her so much!
I started sewing when my fiance (husband now) went to college in Wyoming for a year. I spent everyday with my grandma who taught me how to sew. She helped me make my first quilt for Jeremy and I in a week! Yeap a week, and since then i’ve been sewing like a crazy lady. I have made 6 king size quilts for me, i havn’t been able to part with the big projects i make. I also have made many, many purses/bags, potholders, placemats, table runners, and small quilts and wall hangings.
I started to scrapbook after Jeremy and I had our daughter. I have 4 12X12 scrapbooks of just her already! I fell in love with this hobby. It has turned into much more than just scrapbooking, i make cards, calanders, and much more. In the beginning of June 08′ i made 200 programs for my Brother-in-laws wedding, boy was that a task but i loved doing them.
So I guess you could say that i am very creative and love my two hobbies and someday i hope to have many more hobbies.
Beth will be offering up a set of gift tags. Just in time for the holidays. Won’t your packages look great?

This is my second shop. View my feedback at alaynacreations.etsy.com
I am a stay-at-home mother of two wonderful children, ages 2 and 4. When my son was about 6 months old, he had a toy giraffe with a knotted string for a tail. He loved playing with the string, and would rub it to help him fall asleep. He loved it so much, that I thought it would be great to create something for him that had lots of strings for him to play with. So, that is how the Zadyball was born — out of love for my son. I hope that you and your family will enjoy Zadyball as much as we have. My four-year-old son still won’t sleep without his! Learn more about me, my family and everything else at http://alaynacreations.blogspot.com |
Now be sure to visit these fine shops and don’t forget to answer the question and post about the contest on your blog/site. Stay tuned tomorrow for another wonderful “made with love” (not China) product!
Question for Week 2 – Has you done a random act of kindness in the last year or has someone done one for you? Please share about it in the comments and don’t forget to link the contest on your blog.
Have a “Zady” Day!

I have a lady I have known at my daughters dance studio for several years. Last week, she brought my girls those chocolate Advent calenders. I thought that was so nice, she knew her kids enjoyed them & picked up two for my daughters.

Yes, I have had an act of random kindness just recently. My elderly Grandmother surprised me with hand made pillowcases that she also hand-embroidered. My Grandmother is getting up there in the years, blind in one eye, and her hands are riddled with arthritis. She made me 4 sets and they are posted on my blog. Is there a greater gift than one unexpected and from the heart, handmade with love? If you care to see the pillowcases, they are here: http://rundpinne.blogspot.com/2008/11/gift-from-heart-from-my-grandmother.html
I blogged about your month long contests (focus on week 2) here: http://rundpinne.blogspot.com/2008/11/real-world-marthas-week-2-giveaway.html
