We've reached the last giveaway of the day... but that doesn't mean we have to stop partying! ;)

 

Oh, wait a second... That's me! Most of you know my story, but I'll share a little bit anyway.

I'm a 25 year old {woah, weird!} blogger / crafter / designer living smack-dab in the middle of the Midwest. I've been crafting and giving handmade gifts my whole life and finally decided to open up an online shop in November last year! I love to create custom items for people. I'm inspired by the recipient as I work on their journal, hair pin, or note card. :)

 {custom bunting greeting card}
