Mad About Mama Event Giveaway~ Vandies Crafty Tree 5/08

I was recently contacted by Rachel, the owner of Vandies Crafty Tree asking if I would like to review her Diddles and host a giveaway for her. My first thought, of course, was " What the HECK is a Diddle?!"  I later learned that my dear old friend, Mary, came up with the name, and that explained everything. Mary, if you're reading this, I mean that in a nice way! You've always been creative and just a little kooky! :)

So I rushed on over to Vandies Crafty Tree, Rachel's Facebook shop, and went to find out for myself what on earth a diddle was! One look, and I was HOOKED! And for your information, diddles are awesome, completely custom hair accessories that come as a clip, a barrette, headband, or hair tie. She even makes adorable knitted headbands you can attach a clip or barrette diddle to for the wee-tiniest of heads!

Vandies Crafty tree also makes custom baby blankets, pins, corsages, and other accessories! Rachel's mission is to do her part to fill the world with fun, beautiful, and totally unique handmade gifts. I don't know about you, but I LOVE handmade items. They have much more diversity and character than their store-bought counterparts. And since each piece is custom made to your specifications, you can be sure that you or the little girl in your life will be the chicest around, since no one will be able to duplicate your look when you wear a diddle from Vandies Crafty Tree! Just look at some of her adorable diddles!

The first pics are of my little diva, by the way...She was tugging at it and made a mess of her hair, but it's still cute! Her diddle is clipped onto a handmade headband that Rachel generously included for my review!

Such a cute hot pink and black diddle! Here it is attached to the headband!

Isn't she cute?

Aren't these just adorable!? And there are MANY more styles to choose from! I personally love my diddle. I just love the fun colors and the fact that the clip actually stays in Sophie's fine baby hair. Diddles from Vandies Crafty Tree are very well made and durable, as well as being absolutely adorable!

BUY IT:
I know you want a diddle for your little girl now! You can order your own on her Facebook shop!  And FYI: Vandies Crafty Tree is VERY affordable, so you can buy several without breaking the bank!

WIN IT:
Rachel will be offering one lucky follower the diddle of their choice during my Mad About Mama event. How cool is that?!
