Well I'm finally ready to do the giveaway I promised in late August. I know it's late, but at least I'm doing it now!
The winner will receive their choice of any clutch and key fob combo from my Etsy shop (I will be adding more throughout the week so check back often!). If you want, I will even monogram the clutch like the one below! This makes a great little wallet for yourself or a nice gift too. I love that I can just grab it and go!

Well you know i love the shop! I want one of everything!
My constructive tool...advertise more..I really think that I might be able to help you expand your business.
I will blog you later on today..and change my facebook status..right now!
And we are already twitter friends!!!
I already subscribe to your blog..with a link on my side bar!
I think I get five..almost six entries...
Anyway..Can i come over just to absorb your skills...I want you to make me monogrammed button ponytail holders. My girls LOVE LOVE the ones from last time!
Miss you girlie!
xoxo
I like that you have different sections for the shop. Perhaps some more girl blankies?
I love that you have a wide selection of products to choose from. And it is all ADORABLE!
But, perhaps you organize the products. Put all wallets together, all baby toys together, etc.
Oh wow, I don't know what to say that's constructive. I think it all looks great and you have a lot of fun products. I like someone else's idea where you put all types of things in one section...it might make it a bit easier for people to navigate, but then again, I found it easy already. If you don't mind giving an email, you could add one to the site so people can get in touch if they don't want to convo or something.

very cute shop--I wish I had the Chocolate Lollipop Art Bag when my girl was younger!
With the pics, I might diversify the color of backgrounds.
Cheers!

What I like: I love how colorful everything is! Very cheery :)
contact me at:

Suggestion: I would try to vary the pictures - maybe a bright background?

I think that your website is great! Your products are soooo cute! I would suggest that you put the measurements for the plush toys, that way everyone knows what to expect. Have a wonderful day!
Your shop is adorable! I love your plushies!

Constructive criticism...
Most of your photos look pretty good, but some of them need a little work.
For example, this one is a little dark:
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29185446
And the color in this one is a little off, everything looks very pink (I know the plushie is pink, but I'm guessing the background was supposed to be white):
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=32185797

Good: Tons of selection with lots of different fabrics
Work on: Maybe the descriptions? Some of them don't flow that well.
Criticism is so hard sometimes, I never want to hurt someones feelings!
But here it goes:
You have very cute items, great fabrics and they look well made!
The only thing I would suggest is to find a model for your pretty dresses, instead of the handsome hanger.
Hope that was not too bad to hear!

I love the shop! I think more dresses would be nice. Also, if you could figure out how to make a shrug to match the dresses, that would be great- I'm having a hard time finding dresses for my DD that are warm enough!
I also really love the I Spy bags! Neat!
Constructive comment- entry #2. :)
I love the website and all the stuff. They are so cute. I didn't know you could do all that. Fantastic!! The website it set up so easily that anyone can easily find items.
I would just suggest that you have more items on there. The more items the better.
I have posted the entry link to facebook and myspace as well!!
i think your pictures look good and i really love the owls
blogged about it - http://giveawaysentries.blogspot.com/
What I like: how you have so many different things on there that someone could want! It's a one-stop-Etsy-shop :)

Hey lady! I posted it on facebook!
I like the website - its very colorful and easily navigable BUT i think i would be great to have a section by prices ... like ones that are under $10 or $15 etc
I like that all your pictures are taken against a white background. The cute colors really pop! rebolsen at gmail dot com
I think some of the pictures of the toys especially could be zoomed in a little more or even taken with the toy at an angle. rebolsen at gmail dot com
Positive: I love what you sell. I added to you to my favorite sellers list.
Only critique: If you could have pictures of kids (baby thru toddlers) wearing the clothes. The patterns are adorable... but hard to picture on a child.
I added you to my google reader.
Positive comment - I love your "I Spy" bags. I haven't seen anything like this before and these are really neat!
Critique - It's always easier for me to guess if a hair product will work by seeing them in a little one's hair. Some pictures like that would be helpful.
I love the variety of items and prints!
As far as an improvement -- I'm wondering what type of vinyl you use in your "I Spy" bags and if they're free of toxic stuff.
Like pps I like to see clothes and clips modeled to see how they fit.
Thanks for the giveaway. mybabyappleseed(at)yahoo(dot)ca
2nd entry as above lol...
Oh -- I would also like to see a picture of the pillowcase dress on a big kid as a halter top.

Entry 1
I love your shop. I love the variety of items and the awesome patterns and colors.
Entry 2
I honestly did not see anything that I thought needed improving.
You have some lovely items! I especially like the variety of items you offer. My only suggestion is that perhaps some items could be made in more gender neutral fabrics! I don't always know the gender when shopping for baby gifts.
Thanks for the chance to win.
a couple of photography thoughts--i love the pic of the pillowcase dress on the little girl. she's adorable! it would be cool to see more modeled pics, though i'm sure that's difficult to do with kids. it might be good to have a pic taken outside, somewhere that the background would be greenery or something simple.
i especially love the brown and pink pillowcase dress. such a cute fabric.
as for something good--i love your banner. it's graphically simple and clean, but captures the mood of your shop so well!

I love the shop! complement comment:
I really like the Ally Monster Taggie!
I still love the shop!! could use improvement comment: if Olivia the Owl had more taggies, I would snatch it up in a heartbeat for our baby girl coming soon!
Lovely products...so many neat, colorful things for children. You've done such a great job on your shop, I'm hard pressed to think of improvements. Maybe more stuff for Moms?
I like all of the brightly colored items. I think your monsters are great!

I love that everything in your shop is bright and colorful! I wish there was a greater assortment of adult items.

I love your monsters! I can make a suggestion about the pics of the dresses up against the door - maybe a more creative backdrop? Maybe up against a wooden fence - or on a little girl?

I love the variety of products and all the great prints, the only thing I can see that could be added is putting your twitter id on your page so you'd be easier to access and could advertise your specials and new products easier ;)

Your shop is real nice & the only thing I could think of that needs improvement is the background color of some of your photos. Maybe some backgrounds shouldn't be white. I would experiment with different backgrounds.

I really like your shop- you have lots of cute stuff. I think maybe more color in background instead of so much white.
Pro: I LOVE the I Spy Bags! Would be great for organizing a few of my son's smaller toys like his chain links. He could see what was in it and then practice unzippering (hes 11 months)to get to them!

I visited your etsy store-
I love the I Spy Bag. I was looking at some games like this at Barnes and Noble but this would be so much more fun.
My only constructive comment would be to make an ISpy Bag with less busy fabric... maybe two colors total , a polka dot or something. You really have great items!!
