A Wonderful Sarah' Silk Giveaway! YAY!
EDIT: This giveaway is now closed. The winner will be announced Monday, November 28. Good luck to all :)
A few weeks ago we had a lovely new sponsor quietly join our family... Sarah's Silk. Actually, Sarah isn't new to Wee Folk Art. She hosted a wonderful giveaway last spring. But now, she has a permanent spot on our blog, so whenever you are HERE, you are just one button push away from visiting her wonderful shop :)
Very often interviews are done to introduce sponsors. Since we already did that in the spring (you can read about that HERE), we thought we would do something a little different. Sarah sent us one of her Starry Night Silk Scapes to test drive. We had 3 very eager guinea pigs! Below are a few of the ways they incorporated the silk scape into their play...
Indoors... by draping it over their play stand, they created a lovely reading nook. That night they read books under the stars, using flashlights to read by. Camping indoors... totally awesome :)
Michelle decided SHE had the perfect spot for the new silk scape... flowing over a window! I love silks on windows!
Silk Scapes also make beautiful table clothes. We also have Sarah's Rainbow Silk Scape that is used everyday!
The wee ones didn't let Michelle play with it for too long before moving outdoors! The Silk Scapes can be used like parachutes, but much easier to use with a small number of children. Can you run under the silk before you are caught?
Or, can you jump over it?
If you "miss", it's your turn to hold an end of the Silk Scape, but that is just as much fun :)
And, just because it feels so good, you can run... trailing a trail of silk behind you!
Silks are an important part of the wee one's daily play. They present endless opportunities for open ended play. From the large silk scapes down to the mini silks, children will find ways to incorporate them into their play. As a matter of fact, the last time the Little Lady was here, her favorite toy at Gammy's was the silks. Even before heading for home, Meghan placed an order for their own stash of silks. I was sent these pics shortly after their visit. I am told she is seldom without a silk :)
Obviously, we are humongous fans of Sarah's Silks. Here's one of the ways that I like to display/store my silks. I change them out with the seasons.
So, after singing the praises of silks... I bet you want your own (if you don't have any) or more (if you do :) Luckily, Sarah is hosting a giveaway. YAY! One lucky winner will receive their very own Starry Night Silk Scape!
Wouldn't this a perfect time of year to win this? Just in time for the holidays. To enter, simply click HERE, go to Sarah's Silk, and make up your Christmas wish list. (There's still time :) Then come back here, and let us know, which Sarah's Silk is at the top of your list. Then... cross your fingers :) The giveaway runs from today, Monday, November 21, and runs through Friday, November 25, at 9:00 pm, EST. Then, a winner will be drawn at random. The winner has one week to contact us or a new winner will be drawn. If you are traveling for Thanksgiving, make sure to get your entry in quickly so you don't forget :)
Michelle and I wish to welcome Sarah's Silk to the Wee Folk Art family. Then, we'd like to thank her for sponsoring this giveaway. Finally, we'd like to wish everyone good luck. The Starry Night Silk Scape is indeed a lovely and versatile toy!
Because of the Thanksgiving weekend, the winner will be announced Monday, November 28. Love a little suspense, don't you ;)

Sarah's Silks
Thank you so much for the chance to win such a lovely item!
I am so amazed! I never thought of silk as a play toy. But now that I have seen Sarah's site, Im a believer! I think the fairy baby blanket tops my list. My 15 month old grand daughter is one of those little ones who is attached to a blanky, and I'm betting she would love the softness of the silk one! My other personal favorite is the starry night design. Just lovely, and reminds me of those nights on my grandparents farm when a child, sitting out late under the night sky, gazing at the stars, and dreaming little girl dreams.

It lifts my spirits to see such good companies willing to generously share their products for free like this! We don't own any silks at all, so the Playsilk a Month subscription is definitely at the top of our wishlist!! If we had to choose an individual silk, the Starry Night silk would definitely be the one we'd choose - its just lovely!
Sarah's Silks
How much new imaginative play a silkscape would bring! It's hard to choose a favorite between starry night and rainbow... so, this time, I'll go with starry night. :)
Thank you for a chance to win such a generous giveaway.
Happy Thanksgiving.

Mini-Playsilks
Although I love all of the colors and sizes of Sarah's Playsilks, the minis are my favorite. Our classroom has many larger ones for wearing and decorating our room with. We don't yet have any wee ones to add another dimension to our play. I would happily accept any color!
Super silks
Undersea Canopy is wonderful, would be loved up by my mermaid want to be daughter.
I love the idea of the mini
I love the idea of the mini silks for making landscapes - my kids use their play cloths (which are just dyed muslins I made for my baby when she was still a baby) but they can be bulky and too large for their landscapes.
While I love the silks and
