Great Giveaway #5: Crafty Fanny & Sweet Eventide!
It’s Great Giveaway #5! Back to the happiness & sadness. But now, mostly sadness. It’s the last Great Giveaway package! But you have another 4 days to enter. OK, bring on the happiness again.
In case you’ve just arrived, every day for this entire week I’ve had a package of products (yes, that means more than 1!) featured, all of which will go to that day’s winner. Each giveaway will be open for entries until 6/8, & I’ll use random.org to announce all the winners on my blog on 6/9. So if you haven’t already, head to this week’s earlier entries & comment for your chance to win. Yes, on all of ‘em. And yes, you can win more than once. But no, there won’t be a Great Giveaway every day for the rest of our lives. But you can go to The Bright Side Project for that (I won just the other day!).

Tiffany Moore describes herself as “an artist who creates things that make people smile and is on a journey to live her most happy life.” If Petunia here doesn’t make you smile, then nothing will! I have to toot Tiffany’s horn as her friend & coach, because her Etsy shop is just 11 days old and – brace yourself – 4 months ago she had never painted a thing! She just knew she wanted to be an artist, & worked/is working to make it happen. How amazing is that?! You can follow Tiffany’s journey on her blog, twitter & as the newest co-host of Spring!

Jessica said that The Prettiest Tree’s stunning display of delicate pink color made her pause &smile whenever she drove by, & I did just that when I saw this print (I think I also gasped a bit.) Even though the blossoms have passed, you can have the beauty in your home year-round with this gorgeous print (I was such an infomercial host right there – love it!)! I have to share Jess’ bio with you, because it proves how amazeballs she really is: “I’m a mama to one 7-year-old boy that I call The Noodle and I’m happy married to Jeff. I’m a four-time survivor of non-Hodgkins lymphoma and eventide is my favorite time of day. I love farmers markets, Polaroids and ruffles.” Love. Her. You can love her, too (wow, this got weird) by checking out her Etsy shop, reading her blog, following her on twitter & liking her Facebook page.
In order to enter the Great Giveaway #5, submit your comment that answers the following question:
If you had to open up a shop, what would you name it?
You have until 6/8 at 11:59p Eastern to enter with your comment for this & every Great Giveaway this week (1 entry per Giveaway per person)! Winners will be announced on 6/9, so hustle it up & make sure you’ve entered Great Giveaway #1, #2, #3 & #4 as well!

If I opened a shop, I would name it, "She Dreams". Because she really, really does! Thanks for another great giveaway!

I don't know if I'll ever open a shop but I'd like to maybe someday open a yoga studio and call it "Exhale". And I'd LOVE that photo of the dogwood flowers! My partner took me to an Old Crow Medicine Show concert on our first date and one of the songs we have as our "soundtrack" (wow… that sounds sort of crazy cheesy, huh? ) is called Wagon Wheel and the lyrics involved dogwood flowers and so ever since we've sort of claimed dogwoods as our flower (holy moly, I NEED to stop typing/RAMBLING stat or y'all are going to think I'm literally made of cheese!). Phew… "Exhale"! Don't mind if I do!

Georgie: I'd name my shop 'Wasabi Spice' because I think it sounds cool. It would sell kid jewelry and they'd do ear piercing.
Audrey: My shop would be called 'Sumina' and it would sell dresses with sparkles on them. And lollies too.

I'm not sure what I would call a shop or what I would sell, but my newest goal coaching business is named Cultivating Harmony – does that count???

I have a shop/business now called Breathe Massage and Yoga. Soon I'll be Breathe: Massage, Yoga, Life Design.

I have opened up a shop on Etsy and it is temporarily named "ENVELOPED" although I'd love to come up with something more clever in the future
