The Popcorn Factory GIVEAWAY!!

by

popcornfactoryThe Popcorn Factory was my mom’s go-to gift for years: thank yous, teachers, doctors…Everyone got a tin of popcorn. And for every occasion throughout the school year, she sent us Popcorn Factory treats in college. So imagine the lovely nostalgia (and lovely aroma) when I opened my tin and saw that familiar circle of popcorn divided between cheddar, caramel and butter. Yummy memories.

Now for the giveaway. Just leave a comment to this post to win the chance for your own tin of popcorn! Enter between now and November 22nd, and a randomly-chosen winner will receive a tin of Popcorn. (U.S. addresses only, please.)

Also be sure to enter the Popcorn Factory Sweepstakes HERE before November 23rd. To celebrate their 30 year anniversary, The Popcorn Factory is giving away tons of great prizes.

Designer Spotlight: Flossy Fox Shop

If you like your cross stitch designs full of color and with a bit of an 8-bit video game feel, you’ll want to check out Flossy Fox Shop. This Etsy seller based in Washington state specializes in fantasy creatures, cozy witch scenes, magic and myths, as well as other designs that are sure to delight. 

I know that shop category “cozy witch scenes” caught my attention, so let’s take a look. It’s mostly sampler style designs with lots of little elements, and some are specifically parts of the house like a cozy with kitchen or library. The one shown here is called Bats and Bells, Tea and Spells, and it includes a table in front of a window with plenty of fun creatures like a fox, crow, dragon and cat. 

On the wall there are swords and an axe, and maybe also some drying herbs and a teapot. The design is 82 by 77 stitches and uses 22 colors. On 14 count fabric it comes out to 5.9 by 5.5 inches, or almost 15 by 14 cm. 

The largest category is myths and magic, which includes cryptids, dragons, mermaids, kitsune and other fanciful creatures. Another large group is animals and nature, which is heavy on cats and corgis, as well as foxes.

There’s also a handful of cute bookmarks, some Christmas designs, and a few cute video game inspired designs. They also have a few stitchalongs if that’s something you enjoy. 

These projects are colorful, cute and whimsical, and look like they would be a lot of fun to stitch if you like this style. 

The shop also includes some cute needle minders and washi tape in a similar style if you want to coordinate your stitching. 

Check out all the cuteness at Flossy Fox Shop, and if you stitch up one of their patterns I’d love to hear about it!
