Barn Owl Primitives Giveaway
I am really excited to welcome Barn Owl Primitives to Skip to my Lou! I love handmade items. Handmade items always make best gifts and are the best way to decorate your home with personality.
Welcome Kristi Quill in her own words…
A few years ago, when money was tight and making handcrafted Christmas gifts seemed like the way to go, I started making hand-painted, door-hanging snowmen for my family and friends. They were well-received and friends of friends started placing orders. That snowballed into Barn Owl Primitives {BOP}, and a little shop on Etsy was born. Since snowmen eventually melt, I needed to add some things to my shop that would last all year. I started with You are My Sunshine and Family Rules typography word art signs.
Like this one For The Nursery or to add Sunshine any where in your home- You Are My Sunshine
Things were slow at first, but after months of marketing my shop on facebook and building relationships with fellow shop owners and bloggers, I started to see some steady sales.
For the Home- All things With Great Love
But by far the orders that I am most proud of are from people you’ve never heard of. The daughter who purchased a sign for her dad’s 70th birthday with all the sayings he’s been repeating to her for the last 46 years. The mother who allowed me to see and paint the special and private poem that she repeats to her autistic son each night before he goes to sleep. The grandmother who ordered my Strength of My Love sign for her granddaughter, who spent almost a year in the NICU before finally coming home. My friend who lost her 12-year-old son to an unthinkable accident during a flood. These are just a few of the accomplishments that I am the most proud of and the ones that make what I do so rewarding and worthwhile.
For a Wedding gift- Love Wins
Kristi’s hand-painted, original works of art are sold exclusively through her Etsy shop.
