My Etsy Shop – Flashy Fish {Giveaway}

A Bit About Me & My Shop

A couple years ago when I first started a blog I planned to use it for promoting my Etsy shop.  I quickly learned that I enjoyed sharing new finds and my creative Etsy friends more than just talking about my own creations.  After all, I see my stuff everyday, so it doesn’t interest me in the same way as discovering other handmade treasures to share.

I’ve enjoyed sharing business tips, craft studios, and great Etsy finds so much that I tend to hardly even mention my own shops on my blog.  How strange is that? I actually have three shops now, and I STILL love Etsy! It works perfectly for my life, and I hope I’ve been able to share a bit of my enthusiasm for selling online with you through my posts.

il_430xN.169960919

So, let me share some of my felt and button goodies with you! Flashy Fish is the perfect shop for for all the little ones just starting back to school and for the holiday shopping that’s just around the corner.

I’ve been making these hair accessories for years now and I still enjoy creating new designs.

Monogrammed items make great gifts! This has always been a favorite…and you can pick your colors!  I even make tiny flowers that are perfect for babies.

il_430xN.162379348

This one’s for all those little football fans out there.  And yes, I can make it in pink. 🙂

il_430xN.170069543

I’m able to travel with a couple baskets and create these little clips and buttons from anywhere!

As some of you might know we’ve spent a great deal of time out of town with our son in a children’s hospital this summer.  My business was able to go with us and it gave me something to keep busy with in such a stressful time.  He’s doing better now, but we still have more testing and other visits to the hospital in the future…not fun!

il_430xN.160836699

I love making little animals like these owls! I even have a sweet little hedgehog clip that is sure to bring a smile to anyone that sees it.

Thanks for letting me share my handmade goodies with you!  I would love to give one of you a bunch of felt goodies of your own!

One Everything Etsy friend will win a $25 gift certificate to Flashy Fish!  You can use it for yourself or give it as a gift!

Here’s how to win…

  • Visit Flashy Fish and leave me a comment about your favorite item.
  • Heart my shop to stay up-to-date with my newest items. 🙂
  • Share this giveaway by Twitter, Facebook, or blog post. {1 entry each}

Please leave a comment for each entry.  This giveaway ends September 14th at midnight…good luck!

Thanks for hanging out with me!  I appreciate all of you!

~Kim

The gingerbread girl would be so cute for christmas. The seahorse and whale are so cute, as is the Eiffel Tower ponytail for those chic days.

    But my favorite EVER is the Skeleton Girl. How unique is that!!!

    My favorite is definitely the Flashy Fish Fabric Covered Button Ponytail Holders – Set of 3 – Animal Collection – Hedgie and Friends. I’d love to have 2 sets to use as curtain tie backs. Do you think they are stretchy enough for that to work? The curtains are kinda thick.
    Thanks 🙂
