It's My Turn in the Parade! Funky Junk Follower's Giveaway

I'm so excited. I've watched the goodies being offered all week over at Funky Junk in honor of her 2000 Followers Event, and today it's my turn!

Now we all know I've given away plenty of stuff here in blogland. You've all seen my work aprons.

But this one different for me.

It's different because I've decided to venture outside of my comfort zone of work aprons and add a fun new line to my offerings.

I'm proud to introduce to you my NEW BoHo Chic apron line 'Free to be Me!'

'Free to be Me!' is a new fun line of waist aprons with a touch of whimsy.

I started searching out vintage clothes at thrift stores trying to find some unique patterns that I couldn't get at the fabric shops. I was looking for things I could cut up and use as pockets. As I was looking, it hit me - Why don't I make vintage looking aprons with these great clothing finds?

So, I decided I would.

These aprons are made completely different than what you've seen from me before. I've made them to look carefree, with lots of raw edge applique and colorful ribbon and button embellishments.

I call them 'Free to be Me!' because that's how I feel when I'm creating them. I pick the embellishments and trims as I go, and it gives me the opportunity to use a lot of fabric scraps that I couldn't bear to throw away.

These aprons are all one of a kind.

So that means, if you see something you like, grab it then or you'll lose it. And, they're priced from $25-35, with free shipping on the whole line!

I'll be adding 8-10 of these a week to my etsy shop, which you can find on my right sidebar.

Here are just a few I have available now.

What do you think so far?

Of course I have a mission to be sure that everyone in blogland has an apron of their own, and I'm starting by offering these for the first time over at Funky Junk's Giveaway Extravaganza.

You have to go over there and let her know which of the following two aprons you'd like to have for yourself.
And remember, if you see something in the shop now that you like, be sure and grab it.
If you happen to win one of these in the giveaway, I'll refund your purchase if you already bought one.

Here are your options:
#1


#2



Hope you win!

Please leave a comment and let me know what you think of the new line.
