Sponsor Giveaway and Latest Basket Make Over

I couldn't help it. I had this basket to pretty up for my etsy shop for a while. When I went through my stash of fabrics, I found the perfect brown that would go with the basket. I had to make ruffles. Usually, my baskets have flower clips, but this time I wanted to do something diffrent.

Here is the before picture...


then after...



I love it. I made a charm with leather string and beads for the basket. My goal was to achieve a feminine look without being too cutsy.

I have been working on a tutorial this week and I was ready to take the final pictures, then it snowed today, ugh! I will post it sometime next week. I am super excited for this, I hope you are too.

I posted an exciting sponsor giveaway at my sponsor's page today! Head over to check it out and say hello to my sponsor, and leave comments to be entered for a chance to win the prize. Good luck everyone!
