Halloween Giveaway-CLOSED

Yes, you read that right. ANOTHER giveaway. This is one you DO NOT want to miss out on.

The Ornament Patch is allowing me to giveaway this little ornament here:

Itty Bitty Pumpkin

  You can click on the link above and that will take you to The Ornament Patch's Etsy page. If you want, you can check out their facebook at The Ornament Patch Facebook Page to check out all her photos there as well and place an order.

The ornament above is called the "Itty Bitty Pumpkin" and is 2.5 inches in diameter with orange cotton layered fabric, orange satin and sheer ribbons with a cutesy green "stem"


This is definitely a cute item to have to either hang in a window around Halloween or to hang on your tree for Christmas.


The Ornament Patch makes custom, hand-made fabric ornaments. You can specially order with any colors and sizes. These ornaments make great gifts for the holidays or are just great to hang on your own family tree.


The Ornament Patch started making these fabulous ornaments in 2009 to earn a little extra money after her husband was medically retired from the Air Force. "Ornament making has been an excellent therapeutic way to channel my emotions and a welcome calm in my every day life," says Ornament Patch.

These ornaments are excellent for those families with pets who love to sleep or walk under the Christmas tree or if you have kids constantly knocking your glass ornaments off the tree.
*Side note* These ornaments are made with straight pins so they are definitely not a play toy!

Yes, us employees will be dressing up for Halloween. Customers can dress up too....if they come in costume on Oct 30 and 31, we will give them 20% off any ONE item in the store.

The thing is...there are too many choices.
My budget is $30 so here are my choices.

This is what I have so far but it looks sorta cheap.

Cleopatra

 

My other choices are: 

Love Bug

Mother Nature...or could even be Tinker Bell or a Fairy if I add wings

Cleopatra (doesn't look as cheap)

Grecian Goddess
