Please note: April of Zinny Lou Totes who sponsored last week’s giveaway has graciously offered a $5.00 discount off each tote ordered between now and Christmas! Thank you April!
This week we have our third Buy Handmade Giveaway!
Jennie from J. Bee Designs is sponsoring this week’s giveaway with one of her darling handpainted holiday plates. Perfect for those holiday cookies you will be baking soon! Be sure and check out Jennie’s website and her darling handpainted glassware!
I decided I wanted to get in on the giveaway fun too so in addition to the J. Bee Designs Cookie Plate the winner this week will also win a Handmade by Leigh Anne holiday apron!
The apron will be made from these darling holiday fabrics…
…and will look something like this apron. I’ll post a photo of the real thing once it’s done!
I am hoping this week’s cookie plate/apron giveaway will get you in the mood for the Virtual Holiday Cookie Exchange I will be kicking off next week. More details the Monday after Thanksgiving!
I’m happy to introduce Jennie of J.Bee Designs:
“After graduating from Harcum college with a degree in interior design I always knew that I wanted to be involved with the textile portion of design. Bringing my personal designs to life on glass and being able to share them on my own website has been a dream of mine for a long time. I hope everyone enjoys all of my designs as much as I enjoy creating them.”

Love the plate and would really love the apron. Please throw my name in the hat and I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Thanks for sharing so much holiday spirit.
What a cute plate and apron pattern! I love to bake and cook so I would put them both to good use! Thanks!
I don’t even own an apron, but I would proudly wear one of Leigh Anne’s. And the plate could even motivate me to bake some cookies!
I am so in need of a new apron, that is so so so cute. The plate also would come in handy with holiday baking.
So cute! Love the plate and apron. Hoping the cute little figure comes with the apron if I win
Your posts are always so upbeat and cheerful! Thanks for introducing us to such talented and creative people.
Happy Thanksgiving!
3rd times the charm! I have to win this because I wear more aprons than any women I know! (I’m actually wearing one now, even though I am at the computer)And I love those fabric! And the plate is darling. So, c’mon 39!
I love aprons and I love plates. Perfect!
It would be such fun to entertain wearing your apron and serving my cookies on that beautiful plate.
I love the aprons!!!!!!
SoooOOOoooo cute!!!!!
I love these? Does this mean you are now selling your aprons because I have your first order! The plate would look great on my plate rack, but then I will have to order two more, darn

Your give-aways are such fun. I love the idea of home-made gifts. I take a little time away from my knitting needles every day to check out your blog and that of The Pioneer Woman. Love the recipes and good ideas. Thank you.

I love the plate and the apron! What fun, fun gifts! Thanks for inspiring us!
The plate is adorable and how did you know I asked Santa for a new super cute apron?!? Santa will be so happy if I win this, because he has no idea what a “super cute apron” would look like and this is it! I’ll keep my fingers and toes crossed! Thanks!
I am afraid to count! I definetely have an addiction. But one reason why I would love it is because it would give me a bag with style! I can see me using this everyday!

Love the plate and the apron. These kinds of items
are so special to have for the holidays. Your encouragement of homemade items is a great idea!!!
I bought two gifts for a work ornament & gift exchange
at an artist fair after reading your web site. Will try to do more of this through the season.
Wow, what a combo! I love the things you advertise and give away, they are so unique and fun!
How cute!! If I win, that means I’ll actually have to cook something!!

What a wonderful give away for such a great week… .. I pray you enjoy your family around the Thanksgiving table.
I love aprons almost as much as purses. GREAT give away!
I don’t wear an apron while in the kitchen, but I really should. I am a messy cook.
Wow those fabrics are beautiful. Where did you find them?
I would absolutely love a Leigh Anne original! And what a gorgeous plate too

I love your website. I have been looking for a cute Apron to buy so this would be so perfect and I love anything Christmas.
Thanks for the giveaway!
What a cute little apron. I am wondering if the pattern would be hard, could someone with a little experience make an apron like that? Would you be willing to share the pattern? It is quite beautiful, thanks for all the wonderful ideas, giveaways.
Love the apron fabrics and the plate! Thanks for the great giveaway.
Just last night I got tomato paste on my clothes! Please help me Apron Goddess!! And to serve something yummy on that gorgeous plate would be SO cool!
I too would be thrilled to receive these. Your blog is so fun and creative. Love the recipes!!!! I’ve now made the lime rice, the costa vida chicken, the blackberry pie, and the tomato soup. All so delicious.
Me! Me! Please!

The cookie plate is adorable!
Oh, how I just adore those aprons!!
How adorable!
Cookie plates are so underrated (there is nothing better than cookies on a plate, I’m not sure what it is about it). The aprons are just great as well. Love!
Love the fabrics! What a darling apron this will be, and the plate would be a great holiday addition.
