February’s Fabulous Sponsors: Part 2

Part two! I was lucky enough to have a LOT of sponsors this month, so the intro post got broken into two parts. Meet the rest of the ladies sponsoring me this month – go say hi, check out their blogs/shops, and take advantage of those coupon codes! 🙂



Paisley Boulevard
Blog | Shop | Twitter

I’m Colleen and I blog over at Paisley Boulevard! It’s a little place where I share my love of vintage, thoughts on being a momma, wife, and general crazy person. I recently began filling the virtual shelves of a little etsy shop, Paisley Boulevard Vintage, so fun. I post projects, my thoughts, and sometimes things that I think are funny. I love laughing, I think it cures everything!

 

What’s a crafty skill that you want to learn but haven’t yet?
Something I want to do would be working with stained glass. I took a class when I was young and it was amazing. I’d like to get back into it. Something about the smell of solder 😉
What’s your comfort I’m-not-leaving-the-house-today outfit consist of?
Whatever I slept in! No, I love comfy soft Ts and maxi skirts. Loose yoga pants and tanks too!
Favorite movie from childhood:
SO so many. I guess I obsessed over My Girl. I memorized it, and I can still recite every line to this day. {remember how I said I was crazy!?}

A breezy sundress with old, worn in jeans (bonus points if they are hole-y) and bare feet. Yes, even in Winter!
Favorite movie from childhood:

I’m newly engaged to my Prince Charming. Have 4 beutiful, sometimes wild and unruly, step-kids. Momma to 3 fur babies who have me wrapped around their paw! I write about my new adventures into parenthood, wedding planning, crafty dreams and learning to embrace life’s unexpected!
 

 

What’s a crafty skill that you want to learn but haven’t yet?
to sew! I’m hoping that once I get my new craft space set up, this will be my year to learn. I’ve signed up for the Learn to Sew series that Claire is offering at Polkadot Pretties… so I’m really excited about that!
What’s your comfort I’m-not-leaving-the-house-today outfit consist of?
Jeans and an old t-shirt. I have so many old t-shirts that I’ve held onto, but aren’t acceptable for leaving the house. But I can’t let them go! Guess I’m a t-shirt hoarder of sorts!
Favorite movie from childhood:
I don’t know if it’s from childhood, but from my teenage years. And that’s Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves with Kevin Costner. I went to the movie theater to see it no less than 5 times and probably can recite it line for line!



The Hollie Rouge
Blog | Shop | Twitter | Facebook

I’m Andi–an elementary teacher turned SAHM to two little ones, wife, follower of Christ, crafter, lover of antiques and anything vintage. My 2 sisters and I opened an etsy shop selling vintage inspired and crocheted accessories. I dabble with learning about photography and have a weekly link up party for photography skills of all types! I blog about my life, my faith, parenting, marriage, crafting, and just making the best out of the everyday. Come listen in as I type our story and share our lives!

What’s a crafty skill that you want to learn but haven’t yet?
I’d like to learn to sew better.
What’s your comfort I’m-not-leaving-the-house-today outfit consist of?
Comfy in black sweetpants and a sweatshirt–and NO shoes/socks. I’m a flip flop girl!
Favorite movie from childhood:
Sound of Music or Seven Brides for Seven Brothers


As a reward for your reading this far, I’ll answer the fun questions I posed to my sponsors last month & this month:
What is your favorite color? Purple!
What is your favorite mythical creature? A dragon, of course.
If you were designing a custom t-shirt, what would be on it? Well, this is kind of what I do in my shop, so it’s hard to choose just one. But my Myst design is my current favorite, though the dragon is a close second. Obviously I like all of the designs, though, since I created them. 🙂
What’s a crafty skill that you want to learn but haven’t yet? I want to learn how to sew. The machine has been bought, the 1st training session scheduled. It’s happening!
What’s your comfort I’m-not-leaving-the-house-today outfit consist of?
Sometimes I just stay in pajamas, haha. But otherwise, a comfy pair of non-skinny jeans, a tank, and a cozy sweatshirt.
Favorite movie from childhood: Tough one. I loved Sound of Music, Annie, the cartoon version of The Lion The Witch & The Wardrobe…. but I think absolute favorite is Beauty & The Beast. Still love that one.
