Custom Beret Giveaway!

Remember my tiny knitted rose garden? And, how I said I would soon be sharing what I was creating with it? Well I finally decided to go ahead and show you! I made my sister a beret with roses on it for her birthday! I made myself one too:) I have made a couple of friends this same type of hat. I love this hat pattern from Love to Knit because it is quick and makes a beret that isn't so slouchy that it doesn't stay on. 
I decided that it would be fun to make one of these cute little hats for a giveaway!! Then I decided it would be even better if the person who won got to choose what colors they wanted their hat to be! So, if you win you get a custom spring-time beret in ANY color you'd like! You don't have to choose one of the colors I've shown, it could be anything; white with pink and yellow roses, purple with orange and blue roses, the skies the limit! If you'd like I can also add sequins to the leaves:) This is my first giveaway so I'm really excited to see how it goes:) 
To enter just:
1. Leave a comment telling me what colors you would like your hat to be!
2. For an extra entry you can become a follower, or for those of you who already are a follower just remind me! 
You can just leave one comment and make sure you let me know if you are or have become a follower and if you grabbed my button in your comment! If you don't have a blogger account please leave an email address!
I will announce the winner on Sunday, March 14th!

  1. Cute hats, Ashley.. and I love the button.

    I couldn't get your button to work as it was so I fiddled with the html to get it to work for me (view my blog).

    I may be the only person to not have your button work correctly... but just in case I will send you the html that worked for me through facebook :)
