Treasured by Holly

New Year and my 1000 Fan Giveaway

Holly Pitcher24 Comments
Wow what a year it's been. I can't believe that 2011 has come a gone. I feel as if it passed me by in such a whirlwind that it's hard for me to nail down exactly what occurred. Does anyone else feel that way? Well in order to slow down a bit I've found a quote that is going to become my motto for 2012.


 I found it on my fav site Pinterest and then paid for the full resolution copy (here if you want your own) to put up on my wall. I framed it and placed it in my kitchen so I can see it every day and remember to keep me focused.

With my business keeping my hopping in 2011 I didn't have a lot of time to create and actually add those products into my shop. I'm hoping to do a lot more of that this year :) and plan on dedicating a lot more of my time to streamlining my shop and of course my products. I can't thank all of you enough for supporting me in this great adventure I am in and allowing me to continue doing something that I love. I often get asked if I'm sick of crocheting yet and I'm happy to report...not even close!!!

The best news of this new year is that I hit 1000 fans on Facebook. This has been one of my goals for awhile and I am just ecstatic that it finally came to pass. In order to say thanks I thought I would offer a little giveaway.


How does a $30.00 gift certificate sound??

There is nothing like a rose to make anyone feel special. That is what I had in mind when I created this beautiful Rose Headband (shown in Hot Pink). From newborn to adult this soft rose is the perfect compliment to any outfit. Crocheted with highest quality mercalized cotton yarn.

The double strand of the headband joins at both tips for easy tying. Using it as a headband there is no need to untie each time; once tied, slip it on and off with ease. Because of the nature of the tied headband one size pretty much fits all, but to better customize there are two sizes available.

The flower measures around 2 1/4", but since they are all individuals that measurement varies with each one.

I am so excited about these headbands and have had a lot of fun wearing them as well as putting them on the girls :)

Here a few more colors

This week was crazy full of warm and cold weather. I love the colder weather because I love pants and sweaters. And so when the weather couldn't decide what it was doing I had a hard time as well. I only have a couple of pics this week, but here's to trying harder next week :)  But even though I was only able to achieve pics twice this week I am still having fun participating in the WIWW challenge!!

Day 1: working from home and date night

cardi - old navy
tshirt - shade
jeans - old navy
scarf - maurices

One word...busy! I am so behind in just about everything! I had great plans this week to stay on the ball and get caught up, but didn't work out as well as I'd hoped. So here it is Saturday and I'm posting about Wednesday. I've spent the majority of every day crocheting until midnight trying to get my orders caught up and I think I see an end in sight. Even though I hardly left the house I tried to participate in the WIWW challenge as many days as possible. So here goes:

Day one - running errands and working from home

sweater - old navy
jeans - big star
shoes - jellypop
necklace - gift

Day two - work from home and lunch date with the Hubby
top - eshakti (so comfy)
jeans - gap
sandals  - local store
bracelet and earings - allora handmade
 
Day three - working from home

tshirt - target
cardi - old navy
shorts - big star
shoes - soda
Day 4 - church

dress - banana republic (just got in on sale for 50.00, so in love)
cardi - old navy
boots - mudd
necklace - cookie lee
bracelet - h&m
