Treasury Challenge Week 6

>> Friday, June 25, 2010


are you ready for the challenge?
This week I picked an item from one of my favorite etsy sellers. Threadrare has BEAUTIFUL pictures. I have bought her stuff and it is FABULOUS. Plus this item reminds me of my wedding. I had red bridesmaid dresses. I got married on the shortest day of the year.
Threadrare specializes in wedding accessories- get to know her
Twitter: www.Twitter.com/ThreadRare
Facebook: www.facebook.com/ThreadRare
Blog: www.ThreadRare.blogspot.com.

The item is the Magnolia Flower headband in ruby red.
from the description:

I created this romantic magnolia from red silk dupioni and hand-sewed a glittering vintage rhinestone button in its center. It is securely attached to a slender 1/8" (~3mm) silver-toned headband.

✩This magnolia is made to order, please allow 5 business days after purchasing for construction. Due to the vintage nature of the rhinestone button, yours will be similar to the one pictured in size and coloring, but not that exact button.
✩Measures 5 inches (12.7cm) in diameter.
✩Lightweight, comfortable, stays firmly in place.
✩Magnolia is backed in matching wool-blend felt.

This magnolia is created from my original pattern, hand-cut and sewn into a three-dimensional, sculptural flower.
Give a pop of color to your little black dress, or upgrade your day look with a little bit of luxury.
This piece would be a very colorful choice for a bold bride!


first off, please follow my shop blog. now for the official rules:
  1. Go to the Treasury page of Etsy HERE and make a treasury with ANYTHING, as long as the headband from Threadrare is included in the first three rows of the treasury.
  2. Put "Treasury Challenge" somewhere in the title of the treasury.
  3. COMMENT with your link to the treasury my etsy username is claireandjanae and you can also send me a link there BUT YOU HAVE TO COMMENT HERE. I am super excited to see what people will come up with. I contact the winner through etsy. Sometimes I am slow. It can take up to four days after I post the winner to contact you- what can I say, my kiddos are crazy right now.
Notes-
  • please make a treasury east- it is easier. If you make a treasury west or treasury main please get a screen shot of it in case you win.
  • if your treasury makes front page you win a ten dollar gift card in addition to other prizes from this competition.
  • MULTIPLE TREASURIES ARE ALLOWED. and encouraged. You can feature this item to your hearts content.
  • Please refer people- tell them to say you sent them. If the winner mentions your name you will also get a the same prize they do.
  • if the item sells out just pick a different item from the shop- as long as you link back here and write a comment you are good to go.
The prize this week? a 20 dollar Target Gift Card.

About This Blog

I am a stay at home mom with a little bit of a fabric habit. I like selling things on etsy to see if other people like the same things I make. I have two adorable kiddos and my husband is in medical school. So when the children go to bed and husband is still away studying, I use my lovely pfaff and bring myself to cut up the fabric I adore so much.
This blog helps motivate me to get things done.
