You are here: Home » Fun Reviews & Giveaways! » A Kimba Made Giveaway!

Happy Memorial Day!  Hopefully you’ve got some great plans lined-up and I’ve got a little something to add to the fun. Today, we have a great giveaway from Kimba, who blogs at A Soft Place to Land and has an Etsy shop at www.KimbaMade.etsy.com .

Kimba’s shop tag-line is “real pretty stuff” and that’s exactly what she makes! I just love her beautiful flower brooches! Take a look:

ava+pin+on+coat

Kimba makes these wonderful brooches out of wool felt, and it’s obvious that she puts a ton of loving work into each one. And like so many of the creative hearts and souls on Etsy, she does it while she takes care of her family and writes posts for her very popular blog.

il 430xN

We’re going to have two winners in this giveway and each one will be able to pick a brooch of their choice from Kimba’s shop. As always, I wish I wasn’t disqualified!

These brooches are just so pretty. I love the colors. Take a look at this beautiful yellow flower on a bag Kimba monogrammed!`

stencil+fabric+paint

Her newest line of brooches features the prettiest bird buttons ever!

il 430xN

 I know you are going to find more than one brooch you have to have when you browse through her shop.  The Big Betty Cotton Candy Brooch is out of this world, just go see for yourself! 

You can get up to three chances to win:

  1. Just take a look around Kimba Made and leave a comment here about your favorite item!
  2. To get your name in the hat a second time, subscribe to Everything Etsy {or tell us you already did!}
  3. If you really want a beautiful brooch of your own, spread the word for us…either on your blog, Twitter, skywriter…whatever

Just leave a separate comment for each one of the things you did and we’ll pick TWO WINNERS on May 29th!

Good luck!

I have added this giveaway to my prayer list… after all, I managed to forget to un-pin my Big Betty flower pin from my shirt before I washed it (she’s not so ‘big’ anymore.. :( ) and so I am Kimba-pinless now and well… my all-black shirt just isn’t as pretty without that amazing peacock blue attached to it.
