Giveaway - Gia the Fairytale Lady!!!!

Hello my beloved friends!!!

How is November going so far? Would you like me to cheer you up a little more? Piece of cake...with my favorite fairy tale! Grab her dust and you will be more than happy! 

ok..I am not crazy...but I am really excited to have a wonderful friend in my blog, a fairy tale lady! I tried a lot to decide how to introduce Gia but it was really hard, since she is an amazing person, a very polite lady, a super talented artist, a mother with no free time (usual ha?) but with a great imagination and amazing creations! Creations that can be worn in different ways....What do I mean, you ask?  A romantic headband that can be transmuted to a gorgeous wrist cuff!

 Coral Organza Flower 

She owns two different shops, both of them full of unique creations...believe me it is really hard to choose your favorite...well guess...my favorites are all of her creations! I am also a proud owner of a great fabric belt with flowers made of organza to "decorate" my baby bump!

And believe me she will definitely make your day... FairytaleFlower and OnePerfectDay... with such two wonderful names imagine the romantic, gorgeous, elegant creations you will find there... stop imagining them and have a look!

So let me introduce you Gia... The Fairy Tale Lady!!!!

*******************************

Hello! I'm Gia from Fairytale Flower, a little etsy shop that specializes in handmade fabric flower accessories for every occasion.

Headpiece in Gold 4.Bridal Wrist Corsage 

I made my first organza flower a few years ago and was instantly hooked. I haven't stopped making them since and today I remain as fascinated with making fabric flowers as that first day. Even though I've learnt a lot along the way through both experimentation as well as researching new and old flower making techniques the fact that you can manipulate a flat piece of fabric into a flower that can be as realistic or as surrealistic and stylized as you wish is still a source of wonder and joy to me.

Wrist Cuff Corsage Headband 

I must admit a love for all shapes, sizes and types of fabric flowers and don't have favourites. I love the small ones and the big ones, the simple ones and the over-the-top ones, the bridal ones and the every day ones.

I also own and run OnePerfectDay on etsy, a shop with fabric accessories and bags. It is also a passion of mine but one that I will leave for another day, another giveaway perhaps.

1. Golden Silk Armband Cuff  2. Pastel Pink Ruffle Cuff 3.Khaki Linen Ruffle Cuff  4.Lilac Ruffles Collar

 I also love coming up with new designs and uses for my flowers to turn them into accessories that both women and girls would like to wear.

GIVEAWAY - Akamatra... the Bow Lady!!!!

What a beautiful and sunny day today in Greece. It really makes me happy…. But on the other hand my mood is really high since I am honored to have in my blog a great friend, a very talented crafter and a unique lady… the bow lady!

I first met Akamatra in etsy  and I fell in love with her creations! Soon, as a lucky lady I am (ha! are you jealous?), I had the chance to meet her in real life too. I do consider her as a friend, a valuable one actually, that I can discuss my problems, having a coffee and share craft ideas or even push her to help me with my blog or etsy shop (ok..I know she is not smiling right now…)… and my next “step” is to convince her to baby sit my daughter!

Her work is just amazing, romantic, for young girls and unique ladies. But most of all what I like in Maro's work is that you can "understand" and "meet" her by just observing her creations. Every single one is like telling you something about her. Every bow, every jewel or cup cozy just hiding a small and cute story. Her shop is like the Wonderland to me... too many stories, too many dreams, too many feelings!  

Οκ...I have to stop talking.... Please let me introduce you Maro from Akamatra!

*******************

I come from a family of makers. My parents made furniture, clothes, toys, food, love and most of all they made homes for us. I grew up in a house where recycling, reusing and repurposing was our everyday fun. I guess I couldn't escape my DNA so you can blame my parents for everything you see in my shop!

Akamatra was born on 2011, when my boyfriend (now my husband) and my cousin convinced me that it would be a good idea to start selling all the jewelry I've been making. As it turns out, they were right!

I love my etsy shop! Having Akamatra has been a life saver. Making jewelry, has kept me sane. Networking inside etsy has also been a wonderful experience! I've "met" many amazing people here and I appreciate everyone who has helped me during these last years!

I honestly believe that a handmade item carries within the love and feelings of its maker and still has space for the love and the feelings of the person who buys it. In a way, buying handmade helps keep the love flow from one person to another and that's the feeling I am having each time someone honours me with a buy.

Tribal leather necklace

In my shop one will find different styles and diverse types of jewelry since I am a firm believer of change and diversity! So, there are girly and cute jewels and accessories, but there are feminine and chic jewels also. What’s missing are the jewelry that mass production industries and their copycats make! Akamatra is a shop devoted to uniqueness and although modern and in sync with the latest fashion, my creations are unique and cannot be found in the next shop.

Having a small business on etsy, is almost a full time job in ways a non seller could not imagine! My time on etsy is on my list of highs during my every day.

I only hope my smile is contagious...

**************************

Akamatra is having her second etsy - birthday this month, so Maro was really nice to offer a great gift to one lucky lady or girl…one of her beautiful bows! Isn't the greatest way to start the new month???
