Adventurers Tote | Dot Pouch | Gold + Black Earrings | Circle Coasters | Simple Candle Holder

Say hello to Little White Whale sponsor, Fifi du Vie! Owner Izabella keeps her lovely store stocked with handcrafted paper products, cute bags, home accessories, and she’ll even be adding a furniture line soon. Her simple and playful style is right up my alley, and I must say that I’m super excited that a poster-sized version of the uber popular “Oh Darling, Let’s Be Adventurers” print is currently for sale. And a fun bonus? The Fifi du Vie studio is located in Somerville, MA – my old college town!

TGIF! And what better way to celebrate than with a giveaway? A few weeks ago, Jen wrote me an email introducing me to her fabulous store, BRIKA and generously offered me store credit to try it out. And you know what? It was love at first click! BRIKA is full of beautifully curated handmade items, and the coolest part of their store is the focus on the talented artisans behind all the goods. Each “maker” has a page dedicated to their story, making it easy to put a face to the product as you browse! I picked out a chic lucite tray and headband, both of which I just adore, and the entire shopping experience was smooth like buttah. And now BRIKA is offering you a chance to win a $50 gift card of your very own!

To enter this giveaway, leave a comment telling me who your favorite BRIKA maker is and why!

For additional entries (please leave a separate comment for each entry):

**This giveaway is open to US and Canada readers only and will close at 11:59pm EST on Friday, Feb 8. One winner will be randomly chosen and contacted by email. Good luck!

virginie millefiori giveaway [closed]

If I was ever blessed with the talent to create a jewelry line, I’d hope it would come out looking something like Virginie Millefiori. I’ve actually had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Virginie, who is a fellow New Yorker, at several local crafts fairs, and her booth was jam packed with people every time. It’s no wonder why, once you sneak a peek at the whimsical pieces in her store! Where else will you find a clever jump rope necklace alongside stacking triangle rings and space invader earrings? Everything is handmade with care right in her apartment, and the fun colors and designs of her jewelry are sure to turn heads wherever you go!

For a chance to win the adorable pinwheel necklace pictured above, all you have to do is visit Virginie’s Etsy shop, and leave a comment below telling us what your favorite piece is!

This giveaway is open to US readers only and will close at 11:59pm EST on Friday, Nov 2. A winner will be randomly chosen and contacted by email – good luck!

I stumbled upon Made By Maru a few months ago while putting together a Friday Grab Bag, and I instantly fell in love all the gorgeous jewelry I saw! Store owner Stacy Haywood creates dainty, delicate pieces that make me want to put on a dress and throw handfuls of glitter in the air. Seriously. The girl’s got that kind of talent.

For a chance to win the uber lovely “On Target” necklace pictured above, all you have to do is visit Made By Maru, favorite the bauble you love the most, and leave a comment below telling us which one it is. Couldn’t be easier!
