Hair Pin Giveaway!

Contest is now closed, thanks everyone for entering!

Today's Etsy shop feature and giveaway comes to us from Designs by Taylor 2 U. I absolutely love the fabric hair pins she has in her shop and am very excited that she's giving two sets of hair pins to one lucky winner! Let's get to know Erica and her shop:

1. How long has your shop been open and what inspired you to start selling on Etsy?

My shop has been open since May 2010. I’m in the process of growing my hair out. One day I was surfing the internet for bobby pins and headbands and came across Etsy.com. A few items caught my eye. But, they weren’t quite my style. The next day, I bought some supplies, opened my Etsy sellers account and the rest is history.



2. How do you fit creative time into your day?

Fit? It is more like CRAM. I work full-time, co-own 2 other businesses and have two kids. So, I’m usually walking around the house with my 11-month old on my hip, cell phone to my ear and a glue gun in my hand.

3. What are some of your favorite Etsy shops?

I have quite a few. But, I guess my absolute favorite would be thebelleandthebeau. This shop has the cutest Father/Son Matching Necktie/Bow Tie sets I’ve ever seen!

4. Do you have any fun hobbies outside of your shop?

If you consider shoe shopping a fun hobby, then that’s #1 on my list. I also enjoy reading and photography.




Ok, ready to win some cute hair pins! One lucky winner will receive her choice of any two hair pin sets $8.75 or under from Erica's shop! There are 7 possible entries, only the first one is mandatory, and please leave a separate comment for each entry. Please make sure I have a way to contact you if you win (etsy shop name, ravelry name, twitter name, or e-mail written out are all ok). Ok, here are the entries:

1. Hop on over to Designs by Taylor 2U and then leave a comment here letting me know your favorite item.

2. "Like" her shop on Facebook.

3. Add Designs by Taylor 2U to your Etsy favorites.

4. Follow this blog.

5. Follow Vegancraftastic on Twitter.

6. "Like" Vegancraftastic on Facebook.

7. Blog, tweet, or post on Facebook about this giveaway.

Contest is now closed, thanks everyone for entering!

I love this listing:

Not only are the pins great, but the photography is beautiful (the slate background really makes the pins 'pop' and gives it a rich feel).

Thanks for the giveaway!
