MAYBE A BLANKET, OR LINENS FROM CSN !

THANKS FOR SHARING!

Well, thanks yourself!  Hope this helps you get some of those linens you've been wanting!  Be sure to check your email for your reward code.

Thanks to you all for entering!  I appreciate all of the new readers!  More readers means more giveaways to come in the future...keep your eyes peeled.  It's fun to give stuff away! 

In the meantime, if you are a Facebookie, come over and "like" me on my FB page.  I'm there a lot and  would love to chill with some crafty people!

Oh, and I've got a simple tutorial in the works for this weekend.

For now though, I'm gonna watch a movie with my sweetie, and maybe sneak some of the kids' Valentine's candy.

Don't tell.

time for a giveaway!!

Hooray, it's time from another giveaway from CSN Stores! CSN Stores has over 200 online stores where you can find anything you need, whether it be swingsets, fitness equipment, or even cute cookware! 
Speaking of swingsets, I've been dreaming of spring, looking outside at our awesome playscape, which is currently covered with snow (yes, even in Austin, TX). 


We have the Gorilla Big Skye I.  My kids LOVE it!  My hubby and father-in-law put it together themselves, a big job to be sure, but it turned out great.

All year long, my kids and their friends spend hours here.


It enables me to craft, cook, or talk with my mommy friends in peace.

It has been a pirate ship, rocket ship, secret clubhouse, and who knows what else.

Sigh.  I love it so much.

Anyways, I can't fund your entire backyard remodel, but I'm giving away a $25 gift certificate, redeemable at any CSN site! 

I won't tell your kids if you decide to spend it on yourself. 

There are lots of chances to win!  Here's how:


1.  Leave me a comment!

2.  Follow my blog (Google connect or RSS), Facebook, Twitter, or tell me if you already are.

3.  Take a peek at my etsy shop and tell me something you like or want to see there.

4.  Take a peek at the CSN stores sites and tell me what you would spend your $25 on!

5.  Spread the word about this giveaway, and let me know how.

Remember to leave a SEPARATE comment for each entry - so you get all your chances to win. And be sure to include an email address in your comment or Blogger profile, so I don't have to track you down.





Contest closes Wednesday, Feb. 9, at 11:59pm CST.



P.S.  The snow has already melted, and the kids seem to be melting down as well.  Time to go PLAY OUTSIDE!!

I am not being compensated by CSN for this giveaway.  This is to bless my readers!

we now return to our regularly scheduled blog entry

Well, I took a little blogging break.  Like a couple of months.  I had some stuff to do.  
Thanksgiving, check!
Christmas, check!

(Like those are small things.)

Somewhere in there I managed to fill about 50 custom orders.  I may have lost my mind temporarily.

tissue covers.

kindle covers.

camera strap covers.

baby head covers.

apparently, I like to cover things.


A few cheesy Christmas song covers.  Duets with my bro.  Good times, y'all.  My piano skills are definitely not what they once were, but we had fun.
It's late January now, and I've had a nice little break.  Ready to tackle blogging again.  So...what better way to start than with a  giveaway?  Details coming in the next post!! 
It's good to be back!

"I love your camera strap cover with the Michael Miller tools fabric!"



Thanks to all who entered, and welcome to my new followers!  This was the first time I have been contacted by an outside company to do a giveaway, and hopefully not the last.  You guys will be the first to know!

This week I will be working on lots of stuff to add to the etsy shop, and getting ready for two craft shows in the next three weeks.  And of course, I have to keep my family fed and clothed and all that.

Be sure to go over to Liz's blog, because she lists lots of other giveaways!

A better looking mirror for my guest bathroom!  Free shipping, too...

hooray for saturday!

Hey y'all, hope you are having a great weekend!  Lots o' fun going on over here.  I can't tell you everything because that would be against protocol, but here are some highlights:

  • awesome photo shoot with the lovely Jen yesterday, pics aren't quite ready to post but I will soon (they are part of a secret project).  Jen is so many kinds of awesome, she can do it all.  And her hubby even watched my kids while we went to play with the cameras.  whattaguy!
  • visit from a dear friend and her daughter, so fun to see all three girls playing together!  Don't you just love having the kinds of friends that you can pick up where you left off, and it's like no time at all has passed between you?  Jeni is that kind of friend.  She is family.
  • my 5yo lost her first tooth, had her first piano lesson, and got a new bike all in the last 3 days.  That's a lot of excitement!!
So for now, I leave you with a link to one of my favorite blogs, p.s. i quilt.  Rachel is hosting a giveaway over there for this pretty little item:



I can think of lots of lovely things to do with these 30's reproduction prints!  Click on over to check out her site and enter the giveaway!

see ya laters -

i'm a winner! i'm so special.

Hey all!  Megan from the Brassy Apple notified me today that I was a winner in her most recent giveaway. Yay!  I love to win things.  I did not win at Bunco last night, and even though it was my very first time I was still kind of disappointed.  (Not that Bunco takes actual skill or anything.  I just like to win!)

Megan has really snazzy ideas and a funky style.  Here's a cute picture of her in one of the patterns I won.



I snagged this pic from her site.  It's totally hers.  But I don't think she will mind since I am talking about how awesome she is.  Her blog is one of my must-reads.  The e-book I won is full of fun scarf ideas, and you know how I love a good scarf!

Check out her shop for lots of patterny goodness!

I've got some really big things in the works over here, but can't let the secret out just yet, so hang in there!

and the winner is...

...Austin! @auschen07, to be exact, as his Twitter entry was the winning one. Thanks to everyone who entered! And thanks to my hubby, who did the drawing. This was the first giveaway, but certainly not the last. I am just getting started and having lots of fun doing it!

Next week I'll be blogging about my creative process and my creative scheduling to make it happen. I'm a stay-at-home-mom first and foremost, like many other craft business owners out there, and I have some thoughts to share with the blogosphere on how it works for me. So keep reading! Because you, my friends, will be able to say you knew me when I just got started!!

3. Follow me on Twitter: @hoopdeedooshop , then come back HERE and leave a comment!


4. Follow this blog via the method of your choosing (RSS/Blogger/bookmark/whatever), then...you guessed it, leave a comment HERE!


5. Get a friend to do any of the above. Leave a comment HERE with your friend's name/username/pseudonym/whatever. (honor system here) You earn another chance for EACH FRIEND.


So you see, each person can earn many chances to win! Remember, the more friends you bring in, the more chances you will have. Be sure to leave a separate comment for each thing you do, so I can easily see how many chances you have earned!


Comments are officially closed at 11 pm CST Friday night, June 18, and the winner will be announced Saturday! That gives you a full week to bring in your friends!
