Links for a snowy day

I have just finished trudging through the fallling snow to deliver packages to the Post Office. Boy, it is chilly out there! And windy, my goodness. That'll be my exercise for the day (and maybe the week if it keeps coming down like this).

Exciting news of the day: I've been featured in an Etsy treasury! Check out Alicia's 70s-style treasury, and don't forget to pop in to her shop. If her treasury makes it to the front page, she'll get a free hat from me!

Also would like to point you all to my artist friend Stephanie Corfee's new website. It's chock full of good, clean lovliness. Be sure to check out her "Freebies" page!

Time to make some tea and snuggle in for what might be yet another blizzard. Spring, I miss you...

p.s. 100 posts! woo!

New items and a GIVEAWAY!

Happy one-year birthday to LikeClochework! In celebration, I am introducing two new items and running my second giveaway. I'm also running a sale in my Etsy shop with free gifts and free shipping. I am also offering a FREE HAT to the first person who gets me to the front page of Etsy (see details here).

NEW ITEMS
Introducing the "Pamela" flapper hat! This retro-inspired cutie is named after my mother, for whom - after much complaining and teasing on her part - I promised to name my next creation. Here it is, mom!



Also officially joining my repertoire is the "Flower Scarf," so named because you can roll this lacey lovely up into a flower. It looks lovely on your dresser when not in use.




GIVEAWAY
Oh yes, the giveaway! It's quite simple, really: Leave a comment on this post and you will automatically be entered to win one of my new "Flower" scarves. You have until February 22 at midnight (EST), after which my husband will pull a name from a hat. The winner will be announced the following day. That's it! Now go eat some cake and enjoy my birthday!

Snowy hugs and kisses for you

Well, the "Hugs & Kisses from Studio B" show is up, even in this snowy weather! Many of you know that this show was my personal project, and I had a lot of fun putting it together. The snow kept everyone away today, but we'll be open tomorrow through Saturday for your Valentine's Day shopping convenience!

For more info, check out Studio B's website, blog, or Facebook event page. And there is always the fun little promo I put together, too!

Let's party like it's 1999

LikeClochework's one-year anniversary is almost here!!! Ok, it's not until February 20, but I'm allowed to be excited, right? I'm planning a little virtual "party" with contests, giveaways, and sales. I may even make a cake. You should be excited, too!

Here's a taste of what I'm planning for Feb. 18-22:

- 20% off EVERYTHING in my Etsy shop! Even custom orders!

- FREE full-sized flower pin with every purchase.

- FREE SHIPPING on all purchases over $40.

- CONTEST: For my anniversary, I would (finally) like to make it to the front page of Etsy. If you put one of my pieces in your treasury and that treasury makes it to the front page (thus, putting LikeClochework on the front page), I WILL MAKE YOU A HAT OF YOUR CHOICE, completely free!

More to come!

Flamio!

Introducing - and just in time for "Hugs & Kisses from Studio B" - the "Flames of Love" scarf! And in a brilliant demonstration of love, Mr. LC was kind enough to model it for my camera. Don't worry, I gave him his manhood back afterward.



Today I am also being featured in Etsy's Accessories showcase! Check it out here.
