I'm finally off my heavy meds after my surgery and all is fantastic!  I'm back to 100% after just one week so my family and I couldn't be happier.  Thanks to all my family and friends who were in prayer about it!  I know that played a big factor in my better-than-expected surgery and recovery. 

My mouth was supposed to be wired shut for 10-14 days! I was SO SO nervous about that considering I don't like pain and I really love to eat.  My jaw was locked and in pain for almost 2 years so this was the solution.  Two procedures were scheduled but once my doctor went in.. he found he only needed to do ONE and the one that required the wires did NOT have to be!!  What a great surprise waking up in a fog! 

A day after my sugery I was eating what the doctor told me not to eat and two days later I was eating what the doctor told me to stop eating... needless to say.. I'm probably going to get it when I see him again today but I love pistachios and I just can't stop.

So I promised I would have a giveaway at 100 Facebook Likes and that number has come and gone.  I'm a little late but I hope the excuse above will get me out of hot water :)

The winner can choose between a Moss Green, White, Two-Tone Pink or a Two-tone Grey Fur

These furs can be washed by soaking in water, then wring, fluff a bit, and air dry ONLY.

This one will be a super easy drawing. All you have to do to win the 18x20 fur is to Follow My Blog.  So, if I see your cute little avatar on the right of this post, you will automatically be entered!  If I see that you are a fan of my FB page, I'll enter you once more.  If you link me to a shout-out on your FB page or blog... then I'll enter you once more!  You can send me the link here or let me know on my FB page. 

The one you MUST do to enter this contest is FOLLOW MY BLOG.. the rest are just additional chances to win.

So:

Follow my blog (a must)

Like my FB page (chance 2)

Send me a link to a shout-out on your FB or Blog (chance 3)

I hope you guys have a GREAT week!  It's raining here in my little town near Austin.  Love the rain!!  We really need it!  We were getting a little tired of the 70-80 degree weather we were having so in the 60's are finally starting to make it feel like it's winter!  Ok.. not nice to rub it in to most people. But wait 'til Summer when we have 3 months of 100 degree or above weather..... we won't be so happy then!

I should mention this contest is open to US only.  BUT, if you are outside US and willing to pay the $12 extra (I will pay the first $5 I would have paid for US winner), I will allow it.  Should that not happen, I will re-draw :)

Let's Give Something Away!

Ok.. I have to give something away for the New Year! Since it'll be a little while until I get to my BIG giveaway due to a surgery coming up, I thought I'd at least give away a backdrop! This is the backdrop that I will be sending the winner (ONLY the backdrop.. no board, fur, basket or floor.. though I do sell those :)

**************THIS GIVEAWAY is now CLOSED*************

But Like my FB page for more soon to come!

http://www.facebook.com/UnaChicasChicProps

In order for the contest to happen, my FB page MUST have at least 75 Likes (not necessarily blog comments) total by the end of the contest on Saturday, Jan 7th, 12pm Central Standard Time. If it hasn't reached that, I will extend the contest until the goal has been reached.

The winner will be chosen at random. Each entry (LIKE and comment combined= 1 ticket) will will be placed in a pretty box. The more friends that comment, the more tickets and the better the chance of your ticket being the one picked from that pretty box!

And..here are the rules which will be strictly enforced!1. Play nice, it's only a backdrop... :)
2. If you haven't already done so, go to my FB page and LIKE ME so I know your FB name!
3. Ask your friends to LIKE MY PAGE TOO so you have a better chance of winning
4. Your friends must also come to this page via the link on my FB page and type in your FB name (they can say something sweet too). I need it so I can give you credit and each name gives you an extra chance to win.

I will check both the FB page's likes and comments for qualifying contestants. There will be no "do-overs" or "re-counts"... :)

I will pick out the winner Saturday 12pm Central Standard time unless the requirements mentioned above have not been met.

Winner will NOT have to pay shipping or delivery confimation fees but I cannot be held responsible if the Postal system loses the item or says they delivered it but you didn't receive it.
This is a FREE item so if something doesn't work out for the winner, the winner doesn't like the backdrop, etc I will not be held responsible to provide a different backdrop (for whatever reason).
You may transfer the item to a friend. If you win the backdrop but want it shipped to a friend or relative, I can do that for you. Again, I cannot be held responsible for shipping mishaps.
I reserve the right to end this contest for whatever reason at any time or withdraw a contestant for any reason.

Have patience.. this is my first giveaway in this format so I'm sure there will be a hiccup or two along the way!

Good luck!

Boards

Wow! A brand new year! A fresh new start! God has great plans and I'm so blessed to be a part of them!

The holidays are now over and I've noticed people are back to work, getting ready for those spring shoots! In my Etsy Shop I've been asked by several about my boards and prices since I have photos of them but none to sell. I don't have any for sale at this time but in a couple of days, I will have a couple of Ready-To-Ship boards my customers can receive usually within 3 days! Custom boards however, will have to wait a few more weeks. I have a surgery scheduled in a week and a half and it'll take a little while for me to get back to jig sawing and using my router. So sad!

It was a little lengthy sending each customer a detailed email about my prices so I thought I'd type up a post explaining my board sizes and prices.

I sell 2 board sizes, 48" and 56". I made the 48" board because they can be used with just about any quilting or fashion fabric you can run out and get at your local fabric store. That's the normal width of those type of fabrics. The 56" are perfect for the home decor type fabrics. But I've used the 48" with wider fabrics and vice versa.

I have at this time 3 different shapes of boards I offer with others still on the drawing board.
The Precious Board is the most popular

The Linda board comes in second

And then the Suave

I also sell Chica size boards which are used in combination with my regular sized boards. They come in the same length and style but are shorter to give it a different look. They are typically about 2.5-3" tall.

My boards are single sided or double sided. Single sided boards are economical and if you get a neutral color, you can use it with just about any backdrop. Double-sided boards save you shipping fees which are hefty considering they weigh between 4 to 6 lbs per board. They save space and are easier to transport than having 2 boards, obviously.

My prices:
48" Board Single-Sided: $45.00 Shipping $13
48" Board Double-Sided: $90.00 Shipping $13
56" Board Single-Sided: $55.00 Shipping $14
56" Board Double-Sided: $110.00 Shipping $14

There is no cost saving on the boards themselves when you purchase a double-sided board because you save $12-$14 on shipping by purchasing it that way.
Please visit my Etsy Shop frequently to see what boards I have available.
