My Birthday Give Away

by 443 Comments

So this past week I turned 26! I’m getting closer to 30!!!!! Aacccckkkkk! lol. Just kidding 😉 I’m not worried. In honor of this event, I wanted to give a gift to some of the readers of Happy Together. Here are 5 things that are up for grabs:

1. Purse made with Heather Bailey Fabric

2. Purse Made with Amy Butler Fabric

My Birthday Give Away My Birthday Give Away

3. Dusty Rose Neck Warmer

My Birthday Give Away

4. Teal Neck Warmer

My Birthday Give Away

5. Bright Pink Neck Warmer

My Birthday Give Away

The first two are purses I have made. They have my old etsy store’s label in them, but they are still super cute 🙂 The last three are neck warmers I made from fleece. Pretty simple to make. Cut rectangular pieces, shirr long ways in a few places, and then add a pretty pin to hold it all together.

How to enter:

1. Leave a comment. Let me know which one you would like in order. For instance, “my favorites in order are 3,1,5,4,2.”

****Make sure there is some way I can contact you. If you email if not in your bio, please leave it in your comment*****

2. For a second chance, leave a seperate comment saying you that follow my blog (only if you do though! no liars ;). This can be through blogger, google reader, email, feeds, etc. Just let me know how you follow…

***This give away will stay open until Friday, December 11.***

  104. Happy Birthday! 30 isn’t so bad. I’ve been 30 for a few years now, and I think it’s a more satisfying age than any that’s come before. Really.
    Thanks for the chance to enter your contest! I’ve been reading your blog for several months because I really like your stuff!
    My favourite piece is the dusty rose neck warmer. Followed by the teal neckwarmer, then the pink neckwarmer, and the bags.

  247. Jessica, Happy Birthday! I just turned 25 and thought wow…I’m 5 years from 30! 🙂 My best friend Emily turned me on to your blog a while ago and I love it. I am making the journal cover you made for your husband for my sister for this Christmas, I am making 5 of them for her to use at college! I love all that you do and hope to make your clothes for my little girls (when I have them) someday! My favorites are 1,5,3,4,2. Thanks for doing what you do!

  250. First of all Happy Birthday. I turned 40 last week so I would say you have the BEST years ahead of you! Don’t stress turning 30 you are still a few years away.

    Next, I LOVE YOUR BLOG!!! In the SYTYC I always tried to see if I could pick your craft out and vote. I was pretty good at it but the last one stumped me. I thought it was the recycled shirt skirt since you are so famous for doing those.

    You are very talented and inspire a lot of my crative side! Take care and hope you had a wonderful birthday. My pick is 1,2,4,3,5 Love the purse idea!! Your fan Shelly

  262. Happy birthday! I’m turning 26 myself in this coming year, and I agree that it sounds odd to be “rounded up” to 30. I don’t feel that old! You’re so much more accomplished than I am, though. Ack!

    I recently stumbled upon your blog and IMMEDIATELY bookmarked it! I am lucky enough to teach art at a pediatric hospital (Children’s Hospital Oakland) and have already made a bunch of your projects with the inpatient kiddos!! They are always a hit! Sometimes I have to push the staff and parents aside so the kids can do the project! Thanks for the fun, and inspiring ideas!
