{Giveaway} BIG Party Package from Crossroads Cottage {aka Pinwheel Heaven!}



This is a big one, people. (over $114, people!) If you haven't noticed, I love pinwheels and Adria does, too. (Remember Jeffrey's pool party? That was featured on Hostess with the Mostess blog)

Shana, the mastermind and creative paper genius behind Crossroads Cottage, contacted us a bit ago because she loved our Vintage Carnival Invitation design. She wanted to design beautiful accessories that coordinate perfectly with our Vintage Carnival design. She did an awesome job coming up with TONS of fun products that would make any party perfectly accessorized and coordinated! Just wait and see below.

Crossroads Cottage has generously offered up a fabulous giveaway for one of our lucky readers! Read on....

Crossroads Cottage is a total eye candy destination for all things party. Shana designs and assembles several varieties of pinwheels, cupcake toppers, banners, party hats and lots more. She even offers a DIY package for those of us crafty ones that like to save a buck and don't mind doing it ourselves! She does custom work and that is her forte. She has so many patterened paper designs styled that she prints custom for each client! (No pre-purchased scrapbook paper there!)

But WAIT... these are not just for birthday parties and showers. She creates the most beautiful accessories, pinwheel placecards and more for WEDDINGS! Just wait til you see some of the beauties she has created...

She was even featured in THE KNOT magazine! That is huge!





I mean, check out these pinwheel placecards for weddings...


I especially LOVE this shot - at the beach. Can you picture how beautiful that must have been with the wind blowing and the little pinwheels twirling!?
Beautiful and such a fun and whimsical idea for a wedding, right?

The DIY kit is super cool and budget friendly!
I love all of her paper varieties. She has TONS to choose from!





Cute centerpiece ideas....


and favor bag decorations...
A fun vessel filled with pinwheels on a dessert table?

Or just for a summer picnic! Kids love them!
How cool is this color scheme below.... I love how classy these look. I could picture these at a rehearsal dinner or engagement party. LOVE them.





How PERFECTLY would these have been for our Happy Halloween Design Collection photoshoot? They would be perfect decorations and favors for a halloween party. How adorable!?


So now to the fun eye candy that she created and photographed for the Vintage Carnival invitation accessories.... She printed our vintage carnival invitation for the shoot. (So nice of her!)

So here you see a shot of lots of fun items. banner, pinwheels, party hats, pinwheel cupcake toppers and cupcake wrappers, invitation.... they all coordinate so well!
