Why are FB Boutiques Giving their Items Away?

If your in the Boutique Circle on Facebook, Surely you have bumped into a Giveaway that you think is "TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE".
Well the good news is They are REALLY Giving this Great stuff away!
Facebook doesnt like it so most have had to find ways around it.
If you look at your favorite boutique page you might see a Giveaway tab on the Left side of their page. 
What are you waiting for ENTER  these.
You will find FREE bows, tutus, applique' shirts, dresses, bath products, diet products, books, leg warmers, etc.... anything a MOM would love to get FREE.

So WHY ARE THEY GIVING THIS GREAT STUFF AWAY? 
To get New customers.
Its a way to get you to their page and see all the great products they make or offer.  Without a giveaway you might have never found the page or stopped by to "LIKE" it. 
Yes, it is a loss for the cost of the product and labor put into making it, but these Crafty Moms hope the reward is Great!
The downside is sometimes you get a page full of fans who will never actually purchase anything.  They will only stalk around to find the next "FREEBIE" opportunity. 
This is NOT what we Crafty Moms want.  We want to give our products to the next "POTENTIAL" customer.
Have you shopped on facebook yet?
If not tell us why.
Did you know its like any other Online Purchase.
You just pay with your paypal accout (which most everyone has and use for ebay) or pay with debit or credit card.  Some Crafty Moms will accept Check or Money orders but will not start a custom order or ship till those clear.
At Crafty Moms'R'us are having a 1 Year Anniversery Giveaway.
We use an outside (of facebook) registration process.  You fill out a registration leaving info so that you can be contacted if you win.  Then you are required to be a fan of the Sponsor page.
This allows all the Sponsors to network each others fans. 
Most of the sponsors are in completely different areas of the US and some are from Canada.
You will see items and pages you would never have noticed if not for a Networking/Promoting page like Crafty Moms'R'us and the Giveway.  We know FREE always gets a little notice.
Here are a few of the items we are giving away FREE:

♫Roling ♪ Rolling ♫ Rollin' Up the Crayons ♪ ♫ The CraYon Roll!

The Newest Craft I have found on Crafters Facebook Pages is the
CRAYON ROLL!
You can get them in a varitey of Fabrics and even get your kids Name on them.
Have you seen them.
What do you like about them?
I finally caved and bought one
(even thought they are totally affordable-Most under $10)
They have slots for the crayons which is great for teaching  that Pre-schooler to clean up!
Then just roll and tie and stick in your purse. 

One thing I am not sure is Crafters Flaw or if it needs improvement in design......\
The crayons keep dumping out if you dont hold it right side up ...which is very inconvienant especailly is out in public.
It was very frustrating for my 3 year old.
You could say "Make the slots more snug to the crayon"
Well that might make it harder for tiny hands to get the crayons in and out.

So Maybe add a Velcro Flap or something to the top side?
Not sure if that is a good solution but surely there is one!

How would you improve on this Awesome Design..
I will still most def. use ours but will just be very careful when packing in and out of Diaper Bag.


We Want To know!
Do you use one?
Do the Crayons Fall out?
How Would you improve?

What Inspires YOU to be CRAFTY?

My 2nd Child

and First Daughter

Really Peeked my interest

in Making my Own

Hairbows and Tutus!

But I really have always had

a little CRAFTY in me.

Really it was my SON who was so SMART inspired

ME first Before the girls.

He had an Incredible appetite for Knowledge, I had to constantly think of new ways to present information. He just ATE it up and wanted more.

He was my Only child for 8 Years and he got the BEST of Mommy!

I was going to college to become a Teacher and Taught at a local

Montessori school, substitute taught, and Directed an after school

and Summer Program at a local Elementary School.

I used my son as my MUSE to get ideas for my "other kids"

I had to always think of a New way to approach a subject

he was interested in. We made sandpaper letters, use a lot of Playdoh,

painted, glued, trips to library, We did it all!

That is What Inspired Me To Be CRAFTY!

But the Bows and Tutus- and Sewing Machine Came after the Girls!

Just figured "Hey I can make that for way less than that Boutique is Selling it for"

and I Did.
