Contest Time! Contest Time!

Oh, you guys are so lucky. I totally want to back up two months and wear a garter like this! Well, I can live vicariously through other brides quite well, so I hope you all enter this fabulous new contest!

Remember a couple weeks ago when I showed all those pretty garters from Florrie Minton Couture? No? Well, go here and read about it.

I just love the look and style of these beautiful garters so much that I had to offer them as a contest! Had to! Good thing Claire, the brains, brawn and beauty behind Florrie Mitton, was game.

Alright, alright. I'm getting to the contest already. Claire has most graciously agreed to offer one of her available styles (your choice) to one incredibly lucky reader. Don't see the perfect garter? That's OK. She'll just go ahead and create a custom-made garter just for you. Yes, ladies. You read that correctly. Custom-made. All for you. For free.

So here's what ya gotta do. And of course, the more you do, the more entries you get!

1. Go to Florrie Mitton Couture and pick out your fave style. Since Claire doesn't have a blog yet, go ahead and add her to your favorites on Etsy if you are lovin' her stuff like I do.
2. Come back here and leave me a comment. (1 entry)
3. Become a follower if you aren't already or tell me that you're a current follower. (2 entries)
4. Tweet! Tweet! Tweet! Ya gotta follow me on Twitter so I can read it! Don't forget to tell me you did! (3 entries)
5. Re-post this contest on your blog and let me know you did! (4 entries)
6. Get the word out there about these beautiful garters! If you post the info on another wedding board or chat room, please include the link in your comment! (5 entries)

This contest will run all week long while I'm slaving away at a conference in Dallas. The contest will close at midnight on Friday, December 4th! Get your entries in! Have fun!

This is awesome! I love the one featured in your previous blog "alice ivory lace". It would look smashing with a little black bow on it :) I'm of course already stalking - I mean, following - your blog and twitter.

Louise, I've been wanting to order one for the overseas wedding! Aahh, you rock the house lady for arranging this.

I've been looking at the glitterati silk garter or je t'aime lace garter because I think they would be lovely as both garters as well as other accessories (maybe head or wrist).

December 1, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterChic 'n Cheap Living

I think you were the first blog I followed a few months ago so yes definitely a follower. ;)

December 1, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterChic 'n Cheap Living

Just tweeted about this from @cncliving

December 1, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterChic 'n Cheap Living

OH GAWD! "je t'aime lace" has stolet my heart...and all this time I thought garteres were silly and goofy looking. Please please please...with sugar and lace on top pick me!!

I LOVE the one above in the middle (2nd) picture. Actually, I'm kindof dying over it. I looked through her shop and there are so many cute ones... but that is definitely my favorite. It reminds me of little hankies my grandmother used to make. So beautiful!

Well this could be a good sign that I will meet the man of my dreams! Or I will give this to my first daughter to meet the man of hers.
Sorry about the potato flop. You should have gone with my layered sweet potatoes. I went to my sisters and to my happy surprise they were making them because they had liked them so much before. I just found a new one so hit me up if you want it.
Really nice contest, I love 3 of them.

December 2, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAmber

posted about your fab contest :-) I'm crossing all my fingers and toes that I win one of these lil beauties...I've never actually seen a garter that I liked until THIS POST. Honestly.

oh. and today's my birthday. Shouldn't that count for something!?

Like the one with the blue bow and the antique lacey type stuff

December 3, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterkirafiki

I kept telling myself that I didn't need one, but once I found the eternity beaded garter, I just had to enter! If I get the etsy necklace I've been drooling over, then it'll coordinate divinely.

December 3, 2009 | Unregistered Commenter{Cassandra}

Of course, I follow!
I've been enjoying your candid recaps too.
:)

December 3, 2009 | Unregistered Commenter{Cassandra}
