I've talked about how much I love Bakerella before (here)... And right now, she's having a Farm Chicks giveaway on her blog. If you haven't visited her site before, prepare to fall in love. Just look at these Christmas goodies she's made in the past: (All photos from Bakerella)
I'm such a fan of all her cuteness.
Hurry on over and enter her giveaway! Deadline is Monday, November 30th at 7pm EST.
How exciting! Now through Monday, November 30th, save 25% when you order $25 or more in Farm Chicks merchandise in my online shop! Just enter coupon code: 25for25. Thanks for supporting my homegrown business!
I'm always searching for cute ways to package up homemade gifts for the holidays. And since cute things can be hard to find, I figured why not create my own? So I did! Two new collections of tags and gift tags and recipe cards too! (Which are perfect for sharing your favorite holiday recipes).
And, my cutsie pie Vintage Santa Pendants are back!
All Christmas items will only be here for the holiday season, so don't miss out! You can find everything in my website store. Happy shopping!
Thank you so much for all of your orders these past couple of weeks! Small businesses like mine depend on your support and when we get it, we appreciate it more than you know. And did you know that every order is packaged up by me or a member of my family? It's true. And that's how little businesses like mine survive. And I'm thankful. So, all this week, any orders placed will receive free shipping. Because you're the best.
P.S. More products coming soon!
My big sale is ending tomorrow (Friday), and I wanted to make sure you don't miss it. There are some super great deals on almost every item - the best deals that have ever been offered on the website! And if you just so happen to spend $100 or more, your shipping will be free. So, whether you gather up your friends and place a big order together, or you just want to stock up on gifts for the holiday, now is definitely the time!
I'm back from the Bonanza (they had the prettiest flowerpots there!) and am cleaning out for fall. If you're interested in any Farm Chicks gear or products, I'm having a HUGE sale, but just for this week only. Quantities are limited, so if you've been eyeing something, you might want to snap it up fast! I'll be back to regular blogging tomorrow.
Serena and I both love all things papery...notepads, tags, stickers you name it, if it has a cute graphic and is colorful, it's hard to pass up. It's great to have a good supply stashed away. You never know when you're going to need a colorful tie on for a gift or want to add a sweet "Happy Day" note in a lunch box. We gathered some of our favorite graphics that we've used over the years and had them made into these sweet little tags (available at our upcoming show), all ready to adorn a gift, make a list or just say "Happy Day"!
Lots of new apparel on our website...and more merchandise coming soon!
Remember when we said we'd be adding more products to our website? Well, we've added a few. And we'll be adding more soon!
New year, new items. Introducing our Retro Rose Pendant. The first of many new Farm Chicks items that will be appearing on our website:
Oh, and...we hear our Tractor Tanks are in this month's Romantic Homes magazine, which makes sense because they sold out in a jiffy. We'll have a whole new supply of the tanks available on our website later this week.
Luckily I was alone when I pulled into the driveway this afternoon to discover a big box on my front porch from our publisher. I screamed. And screamed again. And then called Teri to get in her car and drive directly to my house. A Do Not Pass GO urgent type of call. And she did. And we opened the box and screamed some more. And then I took her picture - right there at the door. The galleys of our book are here!!
Last week, our Editorial Director, Marisa (whom we adore), had emailed to tell us that she had galleys made up. What are galleys we asked? (Because just like with everything else in this raz-ma-taz fancy publishing world, we had no idea). Here was Marisa's description: "I don’t want you to
be surprised when you open the box - these are “bare-bones” copies made for
advance publicity. The cover is paperback and has no printed special effects,
the interior is cropped to fit the format and is in black and white."
Honestly, we imagined the galleys would be stacks of black and white copies that were binder-clipped together. Turns out galleys are amazing. We love them. We can't believe it.
And there's something else we can't believe. We're shooting our second book next week. Second book! We've got lots to share about that......soon!
We're so excited about our new Santa pendants that we've decided to do a giveaway. So, now through Sunday, November 30th, leave a comment on this post and you'll be entered for a chance to win one of the new Santa pendants and any other one item of your choice from our website. The winner will be announced on Monday, December 1st. Good Luck!
Welcome! You've found my web journal, where
I talk about my life as a stay-at-home mom and entrepreneur. When I'm not chasing my four boys around, I'm hard at work running my company,
The Farm Chicks, writing books, and working as a contributing editor for Country Living Magazine.
I consider myself the luckiest girl in the world, and
I'm happy to share my stories and ideas with you.
My name is Serena, and I'm so happy you're here.
P.S. I love hearing from you! Feel free to drop me a note anytime!
