Blog Giveaway Contest #5 - 2darncute's Baby/Toddler Pink & Black Zebra Bow Headband

The 5th Blog Contest is sponsored by Etsy store, 2darncute. The store is owned by CC and although she's new to Etsy, she's been a staple at the Orange County Marketplace.

2darncute sells a variety of handmade hair bows and headbands, as well as hand sewn dresses! CC only uses the highest quality of materials but strives to offer her products at an affordable price. She's also great with getting you the size you need - if you don't see a size available in her store, don't be discouraged, just send her a note with your request!

One of the items I am just in love with is the Pink Snowman Twirl Skirt with Matching Top.



The faux fur on the bottom adds the perfect touch to that outfit. (If only I had a daughter!) This outfit would be great for winter wear as well as at Christmas time! And it's only $25! Where else can you find such a great deal?


For the giveaway, 2darncute is offering one of the cutest headbands you could put on a little girl. It's the Pink and Black Zebra Bow Headband.


"Oh so popular Zebra print ribbon has been hand sewn to a soft pink nylon headband and topped off with a cute black and pink flower center. This will fit a baby or toddler.This is a cute way to add pizazz to any outfit!"
