Strut Your Stuff with Shop Gussy

Every Thursday we get together to share our newest creations. It could be just about anything- a makeover, a project, artwork, a great recipe... I am not picky!  I am on the hunt for items to feature and people to guest blog on somewhat simple AND Crazy Domestic, so show me what you got!


•••


Today's giveaway is a great prize from ShopGussy.com

Shop Gussy  is a darling company that creates a colorful line of ruffled accessories!

Take a look at some of my favorites items from Gussy:
Zipped pouches of all sizes, laptop bags, tote/diaper bags, headbands, wristlet/clutches... all with the adorable signature ruffle for those that love a little flair.


The Giveaway:



Shop Gussy has offered to give 1 lucky somewhat simple follower a $40 gift certificate!


How to Enter:
Visit Shop Gussy and tell me what product you would love to have


Additional Entries:
-Visit the Gussy Blog and become a follower
-Blog, twitter or facebook about this giveaway
-Be a follower or a fan of somewhat simple's facebook, twitter or Blog Frog Community.

Please enter only one comment per person telling me of all the entries you completed. I will enter your name for as many times as you have entries. I am just trying to cut down on the amount of comments I get for giveaways because my inbox tends to get overloaded. Thanks!


I will announce the winner Monday at the top of my blog. The winner must "be present" to win, meaning if you see your name, you have to email me to claim your prize by Wednesday or you miss out!
•••

And now for the Link Party!  
I am on the hunt for items to feature and people to guest blog on here and Crazy Domestic, so show me what you got!

Here are the rules just to make sure we are all playing fair:
1. Link to your specific post, not the main page of your blog.
2. Grab our party button so everyone can get in on the fun.

This link party will start at 6pm Wednesday and end at 6pm Friday (Arizona time!) By entering your link, you are giving me permission to use any part of your post including pictures in a spotlight on somewhat simple or Crazy Domestic. (Proper credit and links will be given to you, of course!)
