Happy Easter Giveaway #7 - LoveThierry
An absolute advantage shopping on Etsy is the option to personalize so many different products. And our Etsymom today is a great example of that. In Thierry's shop, LoveThierry, she offers personalized children's books. You can make these books truly one of a kind for your child, but I will let Thierry tells you how herself!
What’s your store name and how long have you been an Etsymom?
LoveThierry (www.lovethierry.etsy.com)
I’ve been an etsymom for a few months
I have sort of a mixture of items in my shop. The ones I am most excited about is my newest item… my personalized ABC Books! These really are adorable… they teach the ABC's, 123's, shapes, colors, first words and so much more!
My kids LOVE their books and they have learned so much from them.
And now just WAIT.... it gets so much better! I will custom design this book with YOUR pictures, with YOUR childs name on the cover, and with a personalized note from YOU!
I have loved creating these because I know how much my kids have loved theirs. They not only have learned from them, but they love seeing themselves & those things and people that are most important to them in a real life book. It makes me so happy to think I could create something that will be a family treasure as they are in our home.
What is one thing you want everyone to know about you?
I am a stay at home mom of a hilarious two year old little boy and an adorable one year little girl. My family is my life and I am having so much fun! I love etsy, it has given me an outlet and a ‘reason’ for all my crazy projects I find myself getting into!
What’s your favorite thing to do during Easter?
Easter Egg Hunt for our kids!
How much Easter chocolate/candy bunny or eggs will you let your kid(s) eat?
As much as they want… my two kids are only 2 and 1 so they wont eat much!

Marvelous Mom Weekly - Hull's Happiest Days Designs
This week our Marvelous Mom, shawn, is here to make our happiest days extra special! Shawn's items are beautiful, unique and personalizable, which is perfect for many special occasions through out your lives. Let's meet our Marvelos Mom of the week:
Etsymom: Shawn, Hull's Happiest Days Designs (http://www.happiestdaysdesigns.etsy.com/)
The Store:
We also have a new bunny series. We originally imagined it for new baby, but I gave a set of dessert plates to my Stepmother this year for Christmas and each plate has a bunny on it with the name and birthdate of one of her grandchildren. She has six plates. However, it’s also great design for Easter as well. I think Hoppy Easter would be cute on plate and maybe the name of the Family.
Something Extra:
Well, my training is in theatre. I have been an adjunct Professor for the past five years
and have worked as an actress, director, and theatre arts educator for about fifteen years.
I’ve been a closet outsider artist on and off for about ten years. My husband is a
Mathematician and a fine art painter. Somehow both sides of his brain works. Besides us
Partnering in Happiest Days Designs we have a gallery show opening up in Elkton, MD
In a few weeks called His and Hers. Our artistic styles are so drastically different, I guess
Opposites attract. We have two beautiful little girls who are sooooo dramatic and prolific
Artists my house is overflowing with art!
Upcoming Promotion:
Anyone who visits Hull’s Happiest Days Designs and makes a purchase as a result of
reading this feature can get a 15% discount, just write etsymom15 in the

Etsymom: Shawn, Hull's Happiest Days Designs (http://www.happiestdaysdesigns.etsy.com/)
The Store:
Hull’s Happiest Days Designs creates personalized dessertware (cake plates, dessert plates, and mugs) for life’s happy occasions, like weddings, new baby, new home, and holidays. We wanted to create something that acts as a touchstone for all the joys in life big and small. Plus built into our business plan is a way of giving back. Happiest Days Designs donates 3% of your purchase price to charities like Feeding America and Make a Wish Foundation. We think everyone deserves happy days!
The Creations:
I love our cake plates with glass domes, we have several different designs but my favorite is our apple tree fine. It’s an apple tree with a heart in the trunk, where we put the names of parents, and then apples falling from the tree with the children’s names in the apple. We have the same concept in a folk designs as well. It’s great for wedding anniversary, house warming, or even Mother’s Day presents.

Happy Easter Giveaway #6 - GennyAndJane
If you like ribbon sculptures and always wonder how those are made, you should visit today's sponsor's store - GennyAndJane (http://gennyandjane.etsy.com/). She has all kinds of beautiful ribbon sculpture hair clips and also DIY instruction on how to create your own ribbon sculpture. Your daughter could be wearing the cutest bunny clips on Easter created by you! Now, wouldn't that be somthing!
Let's meet Jessica, the owner, and get to know more about her:
What’s your store name and how long have you been an Etsymom?
My store name is GennyAndJane and I have been an Etsymom since January 5th of this year!
Tell us something about you, your family, your craft or your store?
Making bows just sort of happened by accident! I got started in 2007 after attending a craft show. I purchased 2 ribbon sculptures from another bow maker. She is now a friend and one of my customers! I was so fascinated with the mouse ear clip and Christmas tree clip I bought that I came home that night and started researching how to make them myself. I’ve been making bows and writing instructions for my own designs ever since. I sell boutique style hair bows, ribbon sculptures and DIY instructions in my Etsy shop, GennyAndJane.
I enjoy making bows for the holidays and am currently working on items for St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, and July 4th. My instruction sets are available in my shop as well as on www.YouCanMakeThis.com, which I am very excited about. I’ve also collaborated with another EtsyMom, Julie of ZozoBugBaby (www.zozobugbaby.etsy.com) and I’ve been working on some new styles to match her adorable clothes. You’ll see my beautiful daughter modeling the birdie dress and sunflower hair clips below. (hint hint: there is still time to get this really cute set before St. Patrick's Day! Shamrock Ribbon Sculpture and Shamrock Printed Pinwheel bow set:http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=40473888)
Etsy is such a wonderful community and I’m so glad to have found the EtsyMom team. Please visit my shop. I’m always adding new creations, so if you don’t see what you are looking for, please ask!
What's your favorite Easter activity?
I enjoy dying eggs with the kids and letting them go on an egg hunt in the yard.
Do you have a blog, facebook fanpage, twitter account or another store?

Easter Bunny Ribbon Sculpture Instructions:
What’s your store name and how long have you been an Etsymom?
My store name is GennyAndJane and I have been an Etsymom since January 5th of this year!
Tell us something about you, your family, your craft or your store?
My name is Jessica and I am a Stay-At-Home Mom of two beautiful children: a son and daughter, ages 2 ½ and 4 ½. I’ve always been drawn to all different styles of crafting, thanks mostly to my two Grandmothers, Genevieve (Genny) and Shirley (middle name Jane). My Grandmother Genevieve sewed clothes for me from the time I was young until I was in high school. Together, we designed my red sequin prom dress, which was inspired from a photo in a magazine. My Grandmother Shirley was an amateur artist. She enjoyed sketching, painting, and in her later years card making and calligraphy. Crafting is a gene that I’m so glad I have. I find that it is a great stress relief and I’m very passionate about my work. I enjoy spending time creating new items for my daughter to wear. She is the inspiration for everything I make.

Happy Easter Giveaway #5 - Nonibam
Have you ever host a party and couldn't figure out how to mark the wine glasses for your guests? Well then you should definitely check out Galia's store Nonibam (http://nonibam.etsy.com/). She has some of the most beautiful wine glass charms ever created! But that's not all she has in her store! She also makes stunnning jewelries - earrings, necklaces, brooches and pins. This is a store that I keep on going back and keep on getting surprised! Here is more about Galia and her store:
What’s your store name and how long have you been an Etsymom?
My store’s name is NoniBam.
Noni is how Roni (my 3 yo daughter) used to say “Roni” when she was 2 yo.
Bam is how she used to say “Gam” which means “also / too” in Hebrew.
So NoniBam is actually “Me Too” in Roni’s language when she was 2.
When I was looking for a catchy name to the shop, this one came to my mind, thinking it will always remind me of her and put a smile on my face
Like so many other crafters, I’ve been making jewelry ever since I can remember myself. I fell in love with beads when I worked in a bead shop. I love the colors and the color combinations. I love the different textures. I love the endless possibilities. I love starting an item without always knowing where it will end.
I started the Wine Glass Charms line when I first came across this simple yet clever concept. I thought it was such a clever idea. I developed my own interpretation to this concept using the wires and I love the result. On Christmas customers bought it to add to a bottle of wine as a gift for the hostess. I hope it will go as well towards Easter / Passover…
That I’m a good person. What you see is what you get. No politics, no fake.
What’s your favorite thing to do during Easter?
I celebrate Passover. My favorite thing is being off work… ;-)
The giveaway item is a lovely set of 8 Wine Glass Charms in Orange, Blue and White (I love this set!) This set will be perfect for your Easter get-together! http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=41734137
HERE IS HOW TO ENTER!

I love the different textures. I love the endless possibilities. I love starting an item without always knowing where it will end.I also started working with colored copper wire about 6 months ago.

Happy Easter Giveaway #4 - Lil'Princess Bowtique (lilprincessbow)
Today's sponsor is... Lil'Princess Bowtique (http://lilprincessbow.etsy.com/), yes ME! I have been posting giveaways, weekly features and gift guide for Etsymom since Dec. While it is so much fun to work with our Etsymoms and posting their giveaways, I wanted to join in the party too! So today I've decided it's my turn to contribute. I hope you enjoy getting to know the mom behind the blog. ;)
What’s your store name and how long have you been an Etsymom?
My store name is Lil'Princesss Bowtique or short name Lilprincessbow (http://lilprincessbow.etsy.com). This name came from my daughter who wants to be a princess (mermaid princess to be exact.) and loves to dress up as one.
I’ve been an Etsymom since Oct last year and has met so many wonderful Etsymoms since then. I really enjoy posting on this blog and I hope you enjoy reading it too.
Tell us more about your store items and why you love making them?
It's not hard to guess what I have in my store...pretty hair bows for the lil'princesses around the world! My inspiration usually comes from the ribbons that I purchased. When I go to the store and see a pretty ribbon that I can’t put down, I know I will have to use it for my bows. Some of my favorite items are my Japanese inspired bows – Cherryblossom and Silky Orange (sold out). I just started making the flower loop bows as well which I really enjoy making. Now my newest favorite is my Daisy Clips (see the flower loop bow section in my store, I love all of them!)
I love making hair bows because I know little girls will smile when they see them. One of my first custom orders was for a disabled little girl who cannot talk. The feedback that I got back from the buyer is that the little girl could not stop smiling. Reading that feedback put tears in my eyes. After I got that feedback I know I will keep on making more and more bows for the little girls around the world to enjoy.
I really enjoy the outdoor and I try to take my kids to do things outside the house as much as possible. Lucky for me I get to do that a lot living in Southern California, where we get great weather year round. My favorite “sport” actually takes me away from So. Cal. I love snowboarding and we go to Mammoth ski area many times during the winter season. So if you see on my store announcement that I am away, I am most likely to be in Mammoth.
What’s your favorite thing to do during Easter?
I don’t really have one yet but I think it will be Easter egg hunt. We tried to take our kids (4 and 2) last year to one but we were late and all the eggs were hunted. This year we will definitely try again and I’m sure it will become a favorite Easter activity.
How much Easter chocolate/candy bunny or eggs will you let your kid(s) eat?
On the Easter egg hunt day I will probably let them have a few pieces then I will put the rest in our storage and give them out as prize for good behavior.
Do you have a blog, facebook fanpage, twitter account or other store outside of Etsy?

What’s your store name and how long have you been an Etsymom?
I’ve been an Etsymom since Oct last year and has met so many wonderful Etsymoms since then. I really enjoy posting on this blog and I hope you enjoy reading it too.
Tell us more about your store items and why you love making them?
I love making hair bows because I know little girls will smile when they see them. One of my first custom orders was for a disabled little girl who cannot talk. The feedback that I got back from the buyer is that the little girl could not stop smiling. Reading that feedback put tears in my eyes. After I got that feedback I know I will keep on making more and more bows for the little girls around the world to enjoy. What is one thing you want everyone to know about you?
I don’t really have one yet but I think it will be Easter egg hunt. We tried to take our kids (4 and 2) last year to one but we were late and all the eggs were hunted. This year we will definitely try again and I’m sure it will become a favorite Easter activity.
How much Easter chocolate/candy bunny or eggs will you let your kid(s) eat?
On the Easter egg hunt day I will probably let them have a few pieces then I will put the rest in our storage and give them out as prize for good behavior.
