1940's Style Snood Giveaway!



I have mentioned snoods a few times recently and I wanted to share this fantastic giveway with you. The winner will win ONE 1940's styled snood and you get to choose the color!!!

This snood comes from a lovely seller by the name of April who runs an Etsy store named aprilsbag. She also runs another shop by the name of Patterns ala Carte on Etsy as well.

This is what April says got her into creating these beautiful snoods:

"The snoods came about when I was writing my first snood pattern - by the time I was done I had a couple dozen and put them in AprilsBag just to see what would happen. People liked them, and I like making them, so I just keep on doing more.  I collect vintage thread from yard sales and thrift shops and, when it's useable, make snoods with it. The 1940's style is a new addition to the shop - they seem to go about as fast as I can make them, but I'm always happy to do custom orders!"
There are three easy ways to win this must have item for every vintage gal! Read the instructions carefully-thank you!

1. Follow my blog and comment below that you are following. If you are already a follower, just simply comment below. That's ONE chance!

2. Check out April's Etsy shop and let me know one item you like best and simply comment below! That's TWO chances!

3. Share this giveaway on your Facebook or Twitter and let me know that you did so. That's THREE chances!

So you have three super easy ways to win this beautiful handmade snood. Please comment seperatly each time-they will be counted as seperate entries.

The winner will be chosen the same way I did in the last giveaway--your names will be placed in a jar and chosen by hand-the old fashioned way! LOL

The winner will be announced on January 9th!

This is a great way to start the New Year! Have fun!

    My favourite item would be the dark royal blue snood, because I could possibly get away with it at school as it is the uniform colour.

    I've been feeling green in a big way for the past few weeks (Christmas's influence perhaps?), so I'd have to say that the Kelly Green Snood over at April's shop if my favourite of her lovely items.

    Many thanks for holding this terrific giveaway, dear gal - I always support the promotion of snood wearing! :)


    Tons of hugs,
    Jessica
