You Can Make This! GIVEAWAY! (CLOSED)

Hello!  Please join me in my first giveaway contest!!  I’m so excited to be offering this fantastic giveaway from www.YouCanMakeThis.com!

You Can Make This was created by a mom who wanted to provide downloadable instructions on how to make just about anything from children’s boutique clothing and jewelry, to handbags, home decor and more.  What makes the site unique is that these instructions are written by everyday moms who have an expertise in an area. They are written in a way that makes you feel you have a friend sitting right next to you, telling you what to do next. They all have detailed instructions and step-by-step full-color photos so even the most “craft-challenged” person can make these items for their homes and families.

In fact, if you’d like to try out some products for free, you can sign up for their FREE newsletter. After sign-up, you’ll receive a link to your email inbox asking you to confirm subscription. Simply click on that link, and you’ll receive all of these product instructions pictured here, plus an online video and digital scrapbooking frames.  I signed up for their newsletter and was super excited to get these freebies.  This weekend, I plan on borrowing my mom’s sewing machine so I can try to make one of their purses!

Would you like to win a $50 bundle of even more DIY instructions?

  • Check out www.YouCanMakeThis.com and come back and post something you’d like to learn how to make

You can learn how to make a Child/Adult Apron Set, Women’s Reversible Wrap Skirt, The “She Loves Me, She Loves Me KNOT” Handbag (SO CUTE), The Reversible Patchwork Bucket Hat, Easy-Fit Pants, and Boys Ties. Remember, even if you’ve never sewn before, the site believes that you REALLY CAN make these things!
