Tots on Tuesdays No. 9 -- Featuring Sugar Plumkin

Good morning and Happy Tuesday! I'm happy to announce our two winners of the $10 Gift Certificates from Ambrosia Delights; Eva and Karin. Thank you all for commenting, and congratulations to our winners!

Today's featured seller is Lucy of Sugar Plumkin on Etsy. Lucy hails from Los Angeles, and is a happily married 28 year old nanny to 4 little girls.




Here's what Lucy had to say: "My husband and I have been married for two years and we hope to start a family of our own in a couple of years. I have a bachelors in Humanities and Italian and I am a certified Forensic Technician. After doing a one year internship at the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office, I decided that I love working with children way more than anything!
A few years ago, I made a blanket to give to my friend after she had her first child. I got a lot of nice compliments and people started asking for them, that's when I decided to start my own company. I started selling them at Farmer's Markets and at School Holiday Events. Eventually I heard about Etsy, and I'm so glad I did, because now more people can enjoy my blankies. I love it when I bump into people that have bought a blanket from me and say "You know that blanket I bought from you?, It's my kid's favorite!" That tells me that I'm doing something right so I better keep doing it!"


For today's "Tots on Tuesdays" giveaway, Lucy is offering up a $20 Gift Certificate for her shop, Sugar Plumkin.

To Enter: Please visit Lucy's shop, and then come back here and let us know what you would buy if you won the $20 Gift Certificate. Please only leave one comment per person, with an EASY way to get ahold of you if you win. This giveaway is open WORLDWIDE. Deadline to enter is Monday, April 21st at Midnight PST.

Tots on Tuesdays No. 8 -- Featuring OsoBaby (Ambrosia Delights)

Good morning and happy Tuesday! Congratulations to Susan, who won the $20 gift certificate from Bella Symphony! Thank you all for entering.

Today, I'm doing something a little different. I didn't get someone lined up to do today's feature, so I will be featuring my own shop, Ambrosia Delights. While I have jewelry, children's clothing, and baby items in the shop, I will be focusing on the latter two items.

I have been sewing since I was 6 years old, so just over 10 years now...just kidding! I have a passion for creating cute things for little ones, but I have no little ones...only a teenage son. I have tubs and tubs of fabrics, and just love taking them out and looking at them occasionally. I started sewing to sell in August of 2005, and I started OsoBaby, as a division of Ambrosia Delights, back last fall.

Here are some of my things:

As our weekly Tots on Tuesdays giveaway, I am giving away

TWO $10 gift certificates to our Ambrosia Delights shop.


To Enter: Please go to our Ambrosia Delights Shop, take a look around, come back here and tell us what your favorite thing is in the shop (it doesn't have to be a baby or children's item). One comment per person please. Please make sure you have given us an easy way to get ahold of you (like a valid email address). This giveaway is open worldwide.

Deadline to enter is Monday, April 14th at Midnight PST.
