january sponsor & giveaway: 19elephants

i am thrilled to be showing off my first ever sponsors today and giving away some goodies from them. be sure to check out both sponsor posts and enter both giveaways!

19elephants on etsy

19elephants is a shop full of handmade deliciocity. it is run by beth, and sister is a jack of all trades. she is rocking the sewing, crocheting, hairbows and more. all at really great prices.

there is SO much variety in the things beth can make--and make WELL--, from scarves for me to lunchbags for the kids to a beanie hat that i am pretty sure jesse would look mega-fine in.

here are just a few of the things i would go bananas for (for reals, the variety of things in there is amazing) if i had my very own 19elephants shopping spree:

the crochet cowl with flower pin. seriously. i must have this. comes in lots of colors, but i love this oatmeal shade already.

no fancy lady tying of the scarf to make it look cool: it just sits there and is awesome all by itself. and i would use the removable flower pin (in my choice of color...i choose gray!) like a red light green light scenario. if i have the flower on, i'm feeling friendly and want to make new buddies, but then when i take it off i am cool and unapproachable. that's totally how it works, guys.

a set of 10 no-slip hairbows.

so help me, layla *almost* has enough "business in the front," to necessitate a bow and balance out her "party in the back" baby mullet. one of these adorable litte accents would make her terminator assaults even more darling. plus, people would know she's a girl when we dress he in judah's old sneakers and shirts. bonus!

crocodile hand puppet

this thing would give judah so much joy, running around, roaring (do crocodiles roar?) and taking big chomps out of everyone. i love his big googlie eyes and shiny white grill (the puppets that is...and judah's too). the fact that this is a hand made and not mass-produced toy would satisfy the hippie mother in me that would come out if only i fed her some quinoa.
