Sponsor Giveaway #1 - Gussy


Gussy is a line of ruffled accessories. Each ruffle is machine sewn free-hand style, making each ruffle unique. About 16 months ago I sat down at my kitchen table -- I wanted to learn how to sew. And here I am now, offering wallets, zipped pouches of all sizes, laptop bags, and note cards (all with my signature ruffle) to those that love a little flair :)
-Maggie




Gussy is offering $30 shop credit to a lucky winner. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post sharing your favorite piece from her shop. She's got some pretties over there! The winner will be picked at random on Thursday and announced in a new post on Friday.

xoxo,
Rachel
