guest editor

I have a big place in my heart & life for the handmade community.  I love hearing the stories of how the maker got started, seeing them grow a dream into a reality and especially the friendships they make along the way.  I know first hand how it feels and I want to help in any way I can, especially if I adore the product and the shopkeeper.  This week I have been partnering up with Brickyard Buffalo as their guest editor and I'm excited for today because I can show you my picks and offer up a little giveaway!

When we first started chatting about our collaboration, I wanted the shops I chose to have a Pacific Northwest vibe- I gave them a pretty hefty list of shops I loved from around here, but then I just kept remembering others I adored and soon the list grew to mix of artisans from all over.  That's what I love so much, building community, supporting one another, gaining new friends and not being anywhere near each other.  That's why Brickyard Buffalo has been at the forefront of the handcrafted world since launching last year.  Not only do they share these businesses, but they help them grow and allow others who may not have otherwise discovered them, be instant admirers.

I'm giving you the chance to win all these goods today so don't forget to check out these amazing vendors and share it with your friends since the deals are too good to pass up!

i heart brickyard buffalo

This week I had a great opportunity to be a pick on the Brickyard Buffalo with guest editor Casey Wiegand.  My twinkle twinkle little headband is offered up at 40% off to customers along with other deals from some amazing artisans.  If you aren't familiar with BB they are a pop-up shop that showcases some unique finds from independent companies & handmade shops.  

If you have ever thought about doing a group sale like what they offer, but are a little hesitant, please dont be!  The ladies of BB are like your new best friends, every time you get a sale you know they want to pass out high fives or give you a giant italian family style kiss.  Its nothing but love over there and between the encouraging emails to get you started to the personal interactions during the sale, its seriously fun!  Don't be afraid to just shoot them an email to see how it all works or leave a comment if you have a questions & I can try to help.

If don't have a shop, don't worry this is still for you!  However, you should be warned to give yourself a spending limit because you will probably want one of everything.  They add new stuff on the daily and a deal runs for a few days- make sure to follow them on instagram and facebook to keep up!

Our sale ends in 2 days so don't miss the deals and don't forget that you are supporting small business, indie, handmade & women!  Isn't that reason enough?
