Chris and Julie, the delightful mother-daughter team behind Little Dorrit & Co, has sponsored three beautiful embroidery patterns inspired by classic literature - here we have Cinderella, Lizzie and Darcy, and the industrious Little Dorrit herself.
The wonderful Aly of For Such a Time designs has the most lively shop filled to the brim with beautiful repurposed, hand stamped silverware... I would empty her shop into my china closet if I could:)
She is offering a $25.00 shop credit to one of our winners!
We have the lovely Masha of Antique Fashionista retuning as a sponsor form last year's event, this time offering four 5x7 prints of the winners choice. Her shop is filled with charming literary inspired watercolors.
A Pride & Prejudice scarf is the prize from the incredibly fun Storiarts! Their products allow you to incorporate your favorite book into your fashion ensemble. Show your devotion to the classics by wearing them on your neck!
I actually 'met' Jeanine during last year's LHBP, and when she opened her beautiful shop, I was so excited! These fabulous prints are replete with unique flair and literary awesomeness.
She is offering winner's choice of any art print!
Sweet Heather of the beautiful literary-and-folk inspired Audrey Eclectic is a returning sponsor, offering winner's choice between her beautiful Lizzie Bennet and Emma Woodhouse portraits.
How to choose? I adore them both!
What will you choose? Browse through the myriad bookish inspired pendants, art prints, and jewelry to find the perfect emblem of your love for all things literary! Bookish Charm has a wonderful selection of quotes, phrases, and themes featured in her handcrafted art.
Winner's choice of one item from the shop.
Also a returning sponsor from last year, the adorable art from the Surrey, England studio of the delightful Jess Purser is simply charming. One lucky winner can choose their favorite!

Another birthday memory is from my childhood. There was this really good Chinese restaurant in the town we lived in at the time.

ReplyDeleteFavourite birthday memory?
ReplyDeleteHm... would have been my 18th. I bought a special pattern and made a Regency dress, then sat all day with my wonderful family and watched Austen classics. I spent a whole week making an amazing castle cake and kisses roses for each of my family members. A lot of work, but all worth it! :)
One of my most memorable birthdays was two years ago on my 21st birthday. I had come home from school to enjoy the occasion with my family and some close friends. After a nice supper, we had settled into the living room for some games, when suddenly my parents brought an enormous box into the room. It was wrapped in fabric, and as I slid the fabric away, I realized that it was a new sewing machine. I never saw it coming, but it was one of the best surprises of my life!

DeleteMy favorite birthday party memory is:
ReplyDeleteOne year, although I'm not sure which exactly, I wanted to have a pool party. My parents bought a blow-up pool, the largest Walmart had, and a hand pump. Once my dad was ready to pump up the pool, the hand-pump broke, and instead of giving up, he blew it up by mouth! I can't recall whether he was blue or purple when done :)
Probably my favorite birthday memory is from my 13th birthday when my parents gave me a little card in an envelope which, upon opening it, said that I was going to go with the rest of our family on our first ever Civil War reenactment. That was the first reenactment my whole family had ever done, and it was loads of fun. Even my mom dressed up and everything. And I have enjoyed CW reenacting ever since!

ReplyDeleteEvery year my church hosts a week long conference for young people. My birthday just happens to fall during that week. I love celebrating with friends from all over the country.
I really don't have a specific favorite birthday memory. I love some of our traditions, though, which include going out for breakfast with my daddy and choosing what we eat for supper.
ReplyDeleteI love the Rapunzel embroidery pattern from Little Dorrit and Co, the "Serve one another" spoon from For Such a Time as This, the Anne Elliot and Captain Wentworh bookmark set from Antique Fashionista, the Persuasion scarf from Storiarts, the See Jane Read poster from Wander Wowl, the Emma Woodhouse print from Audery Eclectic Shop, the "Without music, life would be a mistake" necklace from Bookish Charm, and Jane Austen book purse from Novel Creations.
