Hello, I'm Evelyn. I'm a self-proclaimed crafty pants, a Type A designer, a blog junkie, a nerdy gamer girl, a relentless movie quoter, a globetrotter, a foodie to the max (with a soft spot for taco trucks) and a teller of tales. If you were to ask my hubsy about me, he would tell you I like beer, bacon and cigars. Thanks for visiting! xo, Ev
What better way to kick off a holiday weekend than to play host to a giveaway of nearly epic proportions?!
{WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT}
When I began the Good Morning Ohio posts here on Oh My Word!, it got me thinking about all the serious Ohio talent, right here in the heart of it all, and how much I wanted to share with the world just how proud I am of our Ohio artists, artisans, business owners, crafters, creatives, and all folks local.
{WHAT'S UP FOR GRABS}
Over $250 in goods from well over a dozen vendors -- all Ohio-made! There's lots of variety here, folks. A little something for everyone. Plenty to share the Ohio love with friends + family, if you're the lucky winner!
{THE GENEROUS CONTRIBUTORS}
Please pop over and visit the websites, shops + blogs of these dear Ohioans who so kindly offered up their wares for the Good Morning Ohio giveaway. I bet you'll find more than one new favorite among these amazing people. Let's show support to those who work hard to bring you alternative shopping options!
