Spoiled Sweet Tutu & Bow [Your Choice] Giveaway! +something extra!!

This giveaway is now CLOSED. Congratulations to Erica G!

I know how many of you are Moms to little princess', and as I have 3 myself, so you are going to want to check out my latest giveaway. I (serendipity-ly) found this fantastic store called Spoiled Sweet (originally Repunzels bows n clips's) & was immediately enthralled! Christen,the stores owner & operator, had some fabulous tutu's & bows (a few onesies & inital shirts), which of course, any little girl is going to love to put on, but the quality & selection Christen had, basically put anything else to shame.

Full, colorful tulle, which has been made-to-last, in my opinion. (I say that with sincerity, as my 2 year old has a love for all things dressy - and will change into those things several times a day. Christens of Rupunzels Designs tutu's held up to the brutality with class).
It still held the full look, & these can be worn with anything. (I personally liked the boots n tutu look that my 8 year old seems to favor.)

Christen was also amazingly kind enough to send not only one tutu with a matching head bow - but three, for all three of my girls, as well as a crocheted hat touched off with a maribou puff! (Perfection - and generosity, all the ingredients for a fantastic place to shop!)
I've never met a more caring company owner and was so excited to get her name out there.

First of all - you can basically customize anything in Spoiled Sweet's store - if you can think it up - Christen & the co-owners (here sister & a talented friend) can make it. Within the store is a color reference for thread, bows, tutu's, etc. so you can mix n match, design what you want, or browse the selection of ready-to-ship that Christen has in store already!

The bows themselves were cute & fluffy, and have been treated so there is no fray (which is something I can't stand in a bow, when it starts to wear and fray) & they stay in the hair - despite the running, jumping, playing, and yelling that may go on  with the wee head underneath it - they hold fast.
The bow's also have a "no slip grip" for fine baby hair, so even your newborn - or fine-haired baby can look pretty, fashionable & ready to go.

The other interesting thing I found out about Spoiled Sweet, other than the high quality work that she managed to pull off with tulle (tulle, to me, always looks so fragile - but not so, as I found out with Spoiled Sweets' tutu's & bows) was the fact that her tutu's can fit any girl, of any age.

My girls age range from 2 to 7 (a brand new seven at that!) to an 8 year old, and all of Christens creations fit perfectly. And I mean - perfectly!
My 8 year old has a slender waist - with long, long legs (not from me. I wiiiish) and her tut fit her snugly, she's in love with it - and even wore it to a birthday party. It didn't look too short, as most dress' tend to look on her.
My 7 year old suffered from failure to thrive as a baby, and as a result has always been beyond petite - she still fits in to size 2 clothes (of course, depending on where I get them from) but her tutu was perfect! It fit her teeny waist, didn't fall off or down, which will usually discourage her from wearing clothes when they don't fit, thankfully - Rupunzels was a perfect fit for her.
And my 2 year old is  your (anything but) "average", healthy 2 year old. And her tutu does not leave her waist, unless she's shoving herself into something else, to quickly replace it with the tutu again. And if she doesn't have it on - her "baby" does.

What I love, is that the selection carried in Spoiled Sweet means I can stock up enough to add to my daughters play wardrobe, as well as their "wearable" clothes - there is every color imaginable, and that suits my over-active imaginative girls just fine.

Spoiled Sweet will fit your child, no matter the age or waist size, and I think that makes her stand out.
Her work is superb, I'm truly impressed, the ribbons (accentuated on her tutu's) add to the classiness of the piece, and little girls are transformed into princess', rock stars - or just themselves, by wearing what she has created.

Christen herself has been an absolute pleasure to work with - patient, kind and thoughtful, and she recently teamed up with her sister and another friend to further widen the range of items they carry, and what was created is now called "Spoiled Sweet" (originally Repuzels Bows n Clips)

Christen does fabulous work, and as an homage to her, and the fact that she patiently waited while I took my time reviewing & posting her giveaway (personal reasons) I decided to add a little something "extra" to this giveaway. If you are the lucky winner, and Random.org favors your comments number, as well as the awesome - Pick Your Own Tutu AND Matching Head Bow that Christen is offering my (oh-so-lucky) readers, I will also be sending you something 'extra' as a 'thank you' for entering Christens giveaway, and forgiving me for waiting so long to bring you a truly fantastic store that is well worth taking a long hard look around! I'm also not posting what it is, as it is a surprise! But one I think you'll like!
