Originals by Lauren Giveaway
Hi Apronistas! I have a super fun giveaway for you this week! Lauren makes the most adorable aprons, and the best part is that she makes aprons for "curvy girls" - here is the description of her "plus size" aprons:
I designed this style, and it is the most popular. I saw alot of aprons out there, but not alot of cute plus size aprons. Alot of really good cooks enjoy eating, and might not be a size 6. The cutest aprons were for smaller women. This style fits a larger misses size through plus sizes. I also custom make them to you measurements. They have extra long ties at the waist and long adjustable ties at the neck, to accomadate taller or shorter women.
I have been sewing as a business for over 20 years. I have done different things, but always in the sewwing field. I now do it fulltime. I do dressmaking and alterations out of my home, and alter gowns for a bridal shop ( in my home).Lauren also makes cute bags, bibs, and quilts! She is one talented lady!So this week's giveaway is for the winner's choice of apron (yay!). To enter, just go to Lauren's Etsy shop, and choose your favorite Apron, and comment back here. If your comment is chosen by the lucky random number generator, you win your choice! You can also get an extra entry by blogging about this giveaway on your own site and linking back here!Since we got a late start, this giveaway will run until Sunday night at 9pm Pacific, and the winner will be chosen Monday. Good luck!

Just Added, Velvet Scarves!

I wanted to share with you my newest item. I am making a variety of scarves out of velvet with an assortment of embellishments. I currently have them in midnight blue and cranberry, with either beads, sequins or fringe.

I am planning to add black with pearls.

These are very special, but can be used everyday. I know that I like to feel a little dressed up , even when I am all bundled up in the winter, and was thinking that maybe you do too.

I wanted these to be luxurious, yet affordable, so I have priced them at $20 each.

You can purchase them at http://www.originalsbylauren.etsy.com/

So treat yourself, or pick one up for a friend, while they last.
