Giveaway: Kids' Journal From NicoPaperGoods

This week's giveaway is so cute, and it's really unique.  If you have children, and they love to write or keep a journal, then this is the giveaway to enter.  The kids' journal we are giving away comes from Andrea Kohler at NicoPaperGoods.  Andrea has an Etsy store, that is really wonderful to browse around in.

Andrea was born and raised in Switzerland, where she learned the craft of bookbinding, but she is now residing in the Northwest United States.  All of her books and papergoods are handmade, meaning each one is truly unique and special; she is very passionate in her work.  Her journals come in all different kinds and colors, and some even come with a marker or a pencil.  Andrea also has created memory games, that involve matching up faces or automobiles.  She also has weekly planners available for all of you busy women out there. 

This giveaway includes a kids' journal from Andrea's collection.  Many of her journals come with a pocket on the front cover that kids can fit small pencils or other tools they might need for their writing time.  Check out all of her wonderful creations!

Giveaway: Girlettes!

Here at MamaBuzz, we are all about mamas and their kids.  For our next giveaway, we contacted Tarra Corcoran from Girlettes.  Tarra is a wife and mama to "two hilarious little girls, Lavinia (2 1/2 years) and Olive (8 months)."

Tarra lives on Martha's Vineyard (and no, she did not get to see the President when he and his family were there).  She is a stay at home mom, which entails many things, including being an artist and maid:); and her husband is a caretaker. 

Tarra started making barettes for the simple reason that when her daughter finally started growing hair, nothing would stay in it.  So, she decided to get creative and make her own barettes.  She has had to make them bigger as the months go by and as her daughters grow.  Creating is a form of escape for Tarra; in her own words: "Since my children are always on my mind it just fits that I would be making childreney things.

I've always LOVED art projects and pretending I'm a kid again... Seeing the world through their eyes. Kids are just amazing! In their world, Everything Is Possible... Words to live by."

All of Tarra's barettes are hand-drawn, cut, and sewn.  She uses an array of different felts, as she loves to collect supplies.  She says, "I really enjoy seeing them come to life and go off into the world." 

Tarra has generously offered to give one of our readers two of her barettes, the ladybug

and the butterfly,

both of which are so cute!  If I only had a little girl, I'd be entering this giveaway with as many entries as possible.:)  To enter this giveaway, you can do one or more of the following:

1) Leave us a comment here on MamaBuzz about this prize and what you like about it.

2) Head over to Tarra's blog at Girlettes, and let her know how much you love this giveaway.

3) Become a follower of MamaBuzz, or subscribe to our posts.

4) Tweet about this giveaway over on Twitter!

5) Compose a blog post on your own blog about this giveaway, and be sure to link back to MamaBuzz.

6) If you love this prize, maybe check out Tarra's other creations over on Etsy or on Girlettes, and make a purchase.

7) Become a fan/follower of Tarra on her Facebook page.

We will be drawing the winner from an online random number generator on Tuesday, September 29, 2009; the winner will be announced that morning.  So, hurry up, and enter to win!  You don't want to miss out on this great giveaway brought to you by Girlettes!
