GIVEAWAY! Gorgeous Custom Bib from Goldenshop! CLOSED

 

Add fashion designer to my list of skills.  It may be only a baby's bib, but it is fab-u-lous, if I do say so myself. OK, so I didn't actually come up with the concept, but I did select the fabrics and color combinations, and that must count for something. You know, kinda like these celebrities that call themselves designers. AND I had a blast doing it.

 

Introducing:  Goldenshop, and the most amazing custom bibs, party hats, banners, and tees for tots. The fabric selections are gorgeous and hip. The details are adorable. The quality is great. I am THRILLED with the custom bib Goldenshop created for my eight month old. 

 

I went into this thinking I knew exactly the bib that I wanted. Then Rachel, the super-designer mama behind Goldenshop, suggested I "bake my own cupcake bib." And honestly, I had so much fun choosing everything from the color of "frosting" I wanted for the cupcake, the fabric for the cupcake wrapper, to the sprinkles and cherry topping.  And the result is gorgeous. Almost too cute to even let Munchkin wear. Hmm, may just have to get another bib for her to actually eat in! 

 

Rachel of Goldenshop LOVES to do custom orders, and can make a bib match any theme, nursery, or birthday invitation.

 

At the risk of sounding sappy, Rachel is one of my favorite vendors this year.  She seems to have a true passion for what she does, and makes you feel you're getting a product that was handmade with love and great attention. As you can read from her bio (copied in part below), this chick is open, straightforward, and her enthusiasm is contagious. And you may not realize this Rachel, but your story is inspiring. There are so many of us moms who are also perfectionists, and allow the fear of not being good enough to keep us from our dreams. Rachel and her custom bibs are more than a cool product. They're a mama's symbol of courage to have confidence in the talents you have to offer the world, and move forward!

 

" I am a stay at home mom to an amazing little girl and two stepsons! I have always had a passion for sewing and crafting...I really had no outlet for this passion other than scrapbooking until we welcomed my amazing little girl into the world in September 2006. It was for her first birthday party that I got serious about my creativity! I made tanks and hair clips for the goody bags, my daughter's first birthday bib, and a pretty high chair cover all in addition to creating her invite, decorating and personalizing flower pots and sippy cups for all the children. After seeing the response I got over something I just made for the "fun of it" I started to make more and more projects... Next thing you know the word of mouth spread and I was receiving emails from complete strangers asking to buy my creations after seeing them in forums, friends' blogs, and hearing about me from others! I was amazed! I am such a perfectionist that I never thought that my stuff was good enough for others to like, let alone for someone to pay for...All of this led up to this point in my life. I am attempting to overcome my fear that my creations aren't good enough and try to make something of myself! My husband and I made the decision for me to stay at home with my daughter, which I LOVE, yet I still yearn to not only help with the financial stress of the one-income household, but to show my daughter that Mommies are more than just ouchie-kissers and bubble-blowers. I have always wanted my daughter to know the importance of independence and of following your dreams...As a sister, daughter, friend, wife and mother I often worry that I am never good enough, that I am not perfect. I stress so hard about the items I create being "perfect" as well. It wasn't until my OWN mother taught me that NOTHING handmade is perfect, that is what makes it handmade! Thus, imperfect, but perfectly so!"

The degian is blue and brown with polka dots. I would love this one for my grandsons second birthday along with the matching hat. They are toooo cute.
