MAY GIVEAWAY: the paper milliners box

header
time for giveaway no. 2 a la gilded bee blog!
I realized a few weeks ago that I hadn't done anything to celebrate hitting 1,000+ etsy sales.
Not a sale, nor a freebie.
So I thought a giveaway would be a good idea. :)

THE BOX:

the pink box
I parceled all of the following goods into this pink linen print box...

* 4 dahlias

hair

my hair

Today I got my hair cut+styled. It had grown past my shoulders, so this feels very short. It now feels like summer, and has been rather hot this week...so short is a good thing.
I almost never take pictures of myself, I'm always plastered behind the lens.
My sister calls this 'the Julie Andrews hair', as it is very much like hers on the sound of music.

Sunday

buttons

the gilded bee
I listed 40 colors of these pretty buttons in my etsy shoppe...

I listed 10 more sets of these spotted butterflies in my etsy shop today. :)
I have been working on so many new things for the shop.
I always seem to forget how long new listings take to create.
