Tassel Love and a Giveaway

***giveaway closed***

So the Nester is having a linky party for your favorite tassels.  If anyone is coming on over from that linky party, you understand and love tassels just as much as I do.  I started making them over two years ago and haven't stopped!  I especially love to make seasonal tassels.  They are just so much fun to play with! 

I wanted to share my favorite tassels that I have made over the years but as I was looking through my pictures, I realized that I loved way more than I have time to share.  So consider this a highlight reel of the tassels I love.




















Phew!  If you scrolled down this far, you deserve an award!  To celebrate my birthday this week and since it's always fun, let's have a birthday celebatory giveaway!  This new springy tassel is up for grabs just in time for Mother's Day too!

Would you like to win this tassel? giveaway closed - thanks for entering!  Just leave me a comment telling me about your favorite tassel (it doesn't have to be mine, you can share yours too!) and you will be entered into the drawing.  Be sure to leave someway that I can contact you if you are the winner.

Want more entries?  Do any or all of the following and then
leave a comment for each one: 
  • blog about the giveaway (be sure to link back here)
  • Facebook about the giveaway (again, leave a link)
  • or for 5 additional entries, make a purchase from my Etsy shop. 
*Giveaway ends April 30th.  Will ship internationally.

Thank you and good luck!

    Love the Easter one and the fall one - I think because the colors in each of those are so soothing and so representative of those seasons. And I LOVE this watering can tassel - you're so very creative!

    That's a hard choice, you know? I'm going to say #1 choice is the valentine one, 'cause I love me some shiny glitteries. #2 would be the brown Easter egg one. So cute.

    Your tassels are just beautiful! I am a sucker for all things autumn, so the pumpkin one is definitely my fav. I'm learning to love spring just as much though after the winter we've had in Nebraska, so the watering can one would go great with my spring decor!

    Thanks for the chance to win :)

    I clicked over from Nester just because I saw the pic of this tassel--LOVE IT. My mom in law recently gave us a huge gift of handmade pillows with a nesting theme, and is now finally starting to get to her own bedroom. She loves nests and I know she'd love this one if I win! I'm amazed by all the tassel creativity!
