The Tattered Flower (Giveaway Day!)



Flowers fashioned from zippers (yes, zippers!), rings with buttons adorning them instead of diamonds, place mats made of burlap...if you're into unique, hand-crafted accessories for your wardrobe or your home, then The Tattered Flower Etsy Shop is a stop you need to make.

Linda owns The Tattered Flower and is also the creative guru behind the Craftaholics Anonymous blog. In February, she decided she'd like to fund her crafting obsession, and the Etsy shop was launched. Since the launch, Linda adds new items to the shop almost as often as she produces fun and fabulous tutorials on her blog.

What I love about Linda's creations is that while they have a special, boutiquey feel, she doesn't charge boutique prices! As I browsed the shop, I was so pleased to see that even though she keeps her prices low, The Tattered Flower doesn't sacrifice quality and workmanship.

Spring will be here soon, and I've already bookmarked several pieces that will update my look this year!

Here are some of my favorites:

Slate Gray Flower Headband

Teal Zipper Flower

Chocolate Brown Burlap Place Mats (Can Be Customized)

To celebrate the launch of my Sponsors section, The Tattered Flower is doing a GIVEAWAY!

The winner will receive:
a Gray Zipper Flower Ring

AND 1 Custom Button Ring
To enter:
Please visit The Tattered Flower and then come back to leave me a comment telling me what your favorite item in the shop is. Entries will be accepted until 5 pm (ET) on Sunday the 21st. I'll announce the winner on Monday and get you in touch with Linda. This contest is open to residents of the continental U.S. only.

{Happy shopping!}
