Arrrrrgh….a treasure chest for the little matey!

I don’t know about your little one’s. but my kid LOVES Jake and the Neverland Pirates.

He saw something about making a treasure chest and had been bugging me about it daily for quite a while. “Mommy I need a team treasure chest for all my gold dabloons.” For reals?!?!

I was putting it off because it sounded like A LOT of work. We went to Michael’s and Toys R Us looking for a wooden treasure chest kit without much luck. It was a lot of “Mommy that doesn’t look like Jake’s team treasure chest.” I was not going to Home Depot. I do not pride myself on my woodworking skills. This really sounded like a job better suited for Daddy. Anyhow…

Then I realized all he wanted was a little paper cutout thing that you print out online and glue together. That my friends I can do!  I present to you Carter’s Team Treasure Chest complete with jewels and gold dabloons.

Here is the link if you’d like to make one for your little matey!

Happy crafting!

{sponsor love} and a GIVEAWAY!!!!

Hi there! I have a special treat for you today!!! My awesome sponsor Rebecca from Happy Baby Designs is here to tell us about her super cute shop and to give one lucky Sew Chatty reader a $20 shop credit! I don't know about you, but I love learning all about handmade business owners and what inspires them to do what they do!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi, my name is Rebecca and I am the owner of Happy Baby Designs and I blog over at This Present Life. I am so excited to be featured today by Elizabeth and I'm also super excited to be giving away a $20 shop credit to one lucky winner! But more about that in a minute, first, let me tell you a little bit about myself.

I am a stay-at-home mom to 2 little ones (ages 4 and 2 1/2) and wife to one awesome man. In my pre-mommy life, I was a medical social worker (and still do some work for a local hospital) but I LOVE staying at home and being with my kids. Owning my own shop allows me to do that and it just so happens that I also LOVE to sew! I try to focus on items that are both cute and practical. After all, that's what I look for when I'm shopping!

In my shop you'll find items for the Happy Baby in your life...

Binky Bags

Gift Sets

Blankies

Bath Cloths

And items for the Happy Toddler in your life...

Aprons

Car Playmats

Bandana Skirts

Now on to the important stuff...how to enter to win the $20 shop credit! You can get one entry for each of the following:

- Follow Sew Chatty (because she's awesome!). If you already are (because you totally should be) leave a comment saying so.

- "Favorite" Happy Baby Designs on Etsy, or add me to your circle (one entry).

- "Like" Happy Baby Designs on Facebook.

- Follow my blog, This Present Life.

Be sure to include your email address if it's not attached to your Blogger profile. Otherwise I won't be able to give you the great news that "YOU WON!".
