Happy Monday! Today I’m psyched to share a little bit about the lovely, talented Kristen Sutcliffe of New House Project. Kristen has a passion for crafting, and she’s always making things in her home. (This is not the point where you beat yourself up for not being the crafty-type. I won’t if you won’t.) In fact, her Jumping Cup Handmade Toy was recently featured on Bloesem Kids.
I’d like to invite you to visit Kristen’s Etsy shop, where she uses local and re-purposed materials for many of her shop items. Her latest addition to the shop is a collection of soft and sweet 6″ x 6″ art pieces with vintage fabric appliqued and hand-stitched onto thick canvas. Kristen recently hung a small collection of wall art in her daughter’s bedroom. What I love is that this simple decorative collage adds warmth and happiness to the home.
You can also find some beautiful vintage ribbon in her shop, like the pink and green floral embroidered ones pictured below.
And now for my favorite part: Kristen is sharing her talent right here with us today! She has generously offered to give away a toddler apron to one lucky turnitupmom reader. Kristen’s aprons are handmade from vintage re-purposed fabric. If you have a toddler who likes to paint, cook, or make a mess (I think that covers all of them), then this one’s for you! Here’s how to win:
1. Explore Kristen’s Etsy shop, New House Project, and then leave a comment on this post, telling me which apron you would like to win.
2. If you’d like to earn extra entries, you can Facebook, twitter, or blog about New House Project and this giveaway. Then come back and, in a separate comment, tell me how you’ve spread the word!
On Monday, October 19th, 8 p.m. EST, one winner will be randomly selected by Random.org. You must be a U.S. resident (18+) to enter. Good luck!
Congratulations to #50, Sarah C!

I love the pink embroidered ribbon! I had a favorite shirt when I was 5 or 6 that had ribbon just like that around the wrists! It is so pretty! It would be fun to make a harbow for my daughter out of that ribbon.

While I think all the aprons are just adorable, the light blue one is my favorite. I think it would go great with my niece’s big blue eyes. She turns three this month.
