Pant Winners!

Thank you all for taking the time to enter and share! I wish I could give a pair to each of you amazing people. :) But without further ado, according to random.org, the winner is:

Congrats Amber! Email me at avonlicottage@gmail.com to claim your prize! And thanks again to everyone else! You are all amazing! 

Nice to meet you!

Do you even wonder who is behind your favorite photography and vendor pages? I know I do. :) So I thought it would be fun to start a little get to know you. To participate, post on either your personal or business blog a little get to know you with an image and 5 interesting facts about you. I'll start. :) 

1. My name is Camilla and I am past my mid twenties, but a little bit from my thirties. :) I love all things pretty. Decor, photography, design, if it's pretty I'll stalk it. I graduated with a BS from Utah State University and some day hope to pursue a masters. 

2. I am blessed with a gorgeous husband who likes top rub it in that he is 18 months younger, and a slightly more gorgeous 21 month old baby girl. She is a joy, and a handful. I'm blessed to be her mom! And blessed to have such an incredible family. 

3. We have lived in 2 countries, 4 states, and numerous cities, not always together. We adore traveling and being outside. Our dream house will be up a canyon someday, with hiking trails in our back yard.

4. I am a wedding photographer in the Salt Lake area. I delved into newborns for a little bit, but found my passion was partial to only wedding photography so I stopped. What I did love about the newborns were all the props and beautiful things in the image with the precious baby. Thus, Avonli was born. I launched in January of this year, and January 25th I sold my first newborn prop. It's been a crazy journey since then!

5. I served an LDS mission in South America a while back and speak pretty great spanglish. Ok, I'm fluent in Spanish, but I'm super lazy when it comes to the language. ;) I'm obsessed with Jane Austen and would probably have preferred to live in that time period. At least for the dresses. And yes, Avonli is just a spin off of Anne of Avonlea. The cottages come from Jane Austen. :) I'm have a pretty great life, and I'm just happy to live it! 

It's nice to meet you!

I would so love to get to know you more. If you want to play, write a quick post and link back to it either in the comments here on this post, or a link in the comments of the facebook status found here.

Thanks for being here!

1500 Fan Giveaway!

What a crazy ride it has been! I opened up Avonli as CioCo in October of last year, but didn't do anything with it, because I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. :) I knew I loved to create with my hands and when I fell in love with newborn photography, I knew I wanted to make props for the darling littles. So in February of 2012 I started doing them, and 4 months later here we are. I have been blessed to correspond with some amazingly talented artists, have been inspired by your custom requests, and have loved being able to see the creations in your beautiful work. What a joy it is to be a part of it! :) So to give back, Avonli will be giving away THREE items (each item is given away for more shares!) for reaching 1500 fans. (Can't believe we're almost there!) 

First Place!

Your choice of one of the following three bonnets: 

 Creme and Lace

New Year...

Well it's been forever since the last post. :) I have lots of new things in the shop so check it out here.

New year, new goals. While Avonli is not my first priority, I do hope to develop and continue to do better as a creator and artist. I love beauty, and it is fun to see it come in the forms of headbands and hair accessories. :)
