Handmade Halloween Costume Giveaway for the kiddies

GIVEAWAY CLOSED
Congratulations, Crystal!

You all know we are approaching my favorite holiday - Halloween.  I've posted a lot about our decorations, costumes, ghosting, and other festivities in the past.  We lost many of our decorations in the move West but I have a few new ideas "brewing."

I'm itching to make a cute costume.  My boys are older now and either don't go trick or treating or chose to carry bloody hatchets with torn clothes.  Gone are the days of cute, home made costumes.  There was a glimmer of hope this year when Ethan said he wanted to dress up as the grapes from the Fruit of the Looms.  Alas, the light has faded back into something zombie-like.  My nieces and nephews have their costumes all ready, so I'm going to make a costume to give away.  I'll also create a DIY tutorial from the process.

The scoop:
One M & M costume (red - boy; green - girl).  The costume will be similar to the one I made for Ethan a few years ago, however, this time it will come more to the knees.  I will even throw in a new pair of white gloves.

We have a winner!

Amy guessed correctly! 
The number is 132 and can be found in this post.

It's been a busy couple of weeks. Between getting the house in order for the move and my back going out (may be a ruptured disc), my studio giveaways have been lost.  So today, I'm happy to get back on track with this bag giveaway.

I've chosen a number between 1 and 250.  Guess the number and this bag is yours.  Here's a hint...the number can be found in one of my blog posts.

Bag details:  This OOAK (one of a kind) bag is made from high end upholstery.  The modern design is a favorite of mine.  It is approximately 12"w x 13"h x 1"and sits nicely on your shoulder.  A magnetic snap closure will keep your valuables safe inside and the compartmentalized slip pocket will help keep you organized.  The seatbelt shoulder strap and tab closure are signature á la mode features. 

This giveaway will end when someone guesses the number correctly.  You can guess 2 times a day.  Let me know your answer by commenting below, tweeting me, or a comment on my Facebook fan page.
