30 Days of Giveaways: Day 20: Mary Margaret’s Hometown General Store

Written by: Ms. Modern 20 June 2009 463 views 78 Comments

Ready for a mouthful? Here goes: Mary Margaret’s Hometown General Store. Phew! That’s the name of a FAB etsy store I’ve had the pleasure of sampling & reviewing!

MM’s store includes scarves/sashes, belts, photography, & neat shelving-unit curtains, amongst other amazing items. She follows her heart and artistic instincts in selecting projects, fabrics, colors, etc. MM takes pride in making a quality item that will be worthy of your hard-earned money. All raw materials and finished projects come to you from a smoke-free, petless home.

One of my fave things in her store are the shelving-unit curtains! If you’re like curtainsme, you have a ton of shelves scattered about your home. And if you’re really like me, they are messy and in NO kind of order. Ahem. In order to solve this problem (cause people like me don’t like organizing), buy one of MM’s cute curtains to cover the mess! They come in assorted colors & styles & are made of 100% cotton. They retail for $19.00 & are a cheap & easy way to *look* organized even if you aren’t (like me)! I’m sure MM is much more organized than I am!

Now, I was lucky enough to review MM’s Spinster Shirt that says, “Let’s Put the Spin Back in Spinster!” Ok, seriously, I was SOOOO excited when I received this in the mail that I quickly changed shirts to proudly display my pride at being a single lady!

spinstershirt

I got to try the Large size. It is a white fitted-ladies shirt. I am normally a size medium & my bust size is a 36A (sad), but I usually tend to buy a large when getting a fitted shirt. The large fit me perfectly! If you’re a winner of one of these great shirts, be sure and ask MM for measurements before you choose a size!

Another great feature of this shirt is that although it is white it is NOT see-through like a lot of ladies white shirts out there.

Mary-Margaret is offering 3 Ms. Modern readers a Spinster Shirt! Yea!
