Spotlight on Utah....Giveaway!

It's good to support your local merchants.  Since I live in Utah, I have found 3 wonderfully talented women that I want to spotlight.  They all have an Etsy shop and are creative AND generous because each of them will give a lucky winner one of their fantastic handmade items!

First: Tanya Newberry is the owner of Gumball Grenade.  She is a single mom of two beautiful little girls. She has degrees in both Social Work and English, but find her heart is happiest when creating something.

She loves working with pencil, charcoal, acrylic, watercolors, PMC / Art Clay, and paper! She has two etsy shops, one that has a focus on fables and folklore called Fables and Foxes.etsy.com

and her Gumball Grenade shop which features two little happy souls running around in their night time pj's! Tanya says, "Little dreamers are my focus! Childhood imagination is priceless and should be cherished!"

  Tanya will give a lucky reader one of her whimsical prints of their choice.
Go to her etsy shop and view her charming prints.  In a comment, tell me which one you like best.

Second: Elizabeth from mybuttonboutique has adorable button creations.

She has hand mirrors,

Zipper pulls

 button earrings,

bobby pins...and more!

Even better - these delightful button creations are VERY AFFORDABLE - AND - right now, Elizabeth is having a sale!  Buy two items, get one free!  These are perfect gifts for stocking stuffers, visiting teaching, nieces, sisters, mothers, friends and yourself!  If you live in the Ogden area, you'll want to go to Mindy Mae Market in Pleasant View this weekend. Elizabeth will be having a sale (everything will be $2.00 or less)

OK, back to the giveaway!  One lucky reader will be able to choose an item from her shop.  Go here to check it out and in your comment tell me which ones you like best.

Third:  Amy from amysbasketdesigns, has jewelry, visiting teaching kits, scrapbook designs, and more!

Amy has a little girl who thinks she is the boss of her mom and the house..it's funny to see how much they are alike. She is 4 and truly is a mini-me.

Some of Amy's hobbies are playing the piano, crafting (of course), and playing some BEATLES rock band. (Rock band was purchased by Santa last year and has been the best gift ever!!)

Since she was a little girl, she often would try to sell homemade items off of her parents porch. Amy says, "I'd invite the neighbors over and promised the nicely made lemonade (which turned out to be the kool aide lemonade). It was a dream of mine to sell to far off places. I'm excited to say that my kits have been purchased as far as the United Kingdom."

 

Amy will be giving the LOVE charm bracelet and earrings to one lucky reader! Go to her shop and check out her other delightful creations!

Last but not least: Do you remember this bad boy?

Straight from Grammy's in Perry, Utah! Popcorn on the cob!  One lucky winner will receive 4 cobs to pop and enjoy!

 

Get the salt and butter ready!
