Raspberry and Lime Hats: Review and Giveaway

Giveaway open to US and Canada.

As the cooler weather approaches, I'm sure you moms are starting to think about some winter wear for your little ones. My girls are set for snowsuits (Maggie obviously gets the hand-me-downs, and I bought a larger size for Frannie last year which still fits) but of course I want to pick up a few cute accessories.

Thanks to Beth from the Etsy shop Raspberry and Lime, I can check "warm yet stylish hats" off the list! Beth sent me a package of her high-quality handmade winter hats - with a couple of lighter-weight styles thrown in for fun!

These two are my favourites, as seen on my adorable models:

As you can see, she also does lighter-weight hats (like the more open weave on the far right), with a cute little matching purse (bottom).

I love this one from her Etsy shop with interchangeable flowers:

However, don't think for a minute that these are just for the girls. Beth threw in these two for my newborn nephew. The striped beanie is cute, but you can't beat the softness of the hat on the right! Very snuggly!

She also does animals, like this gopher:

And if your child is obsessed with any particular television character, Beth can also turn the critter in to a hat, like the Abby Cadabby example below (wouldn't this make a terrific Christmas gift?)

Now guess what? (You know what's coming!) I have a chance for you to win YOUR CHOICE of hat from Raspberry and Lime, with shipping included. You can choose something already available on the site, or Beth will be happy to work with you on a custom order. Choose the colour, the wool weight, the style...the options are endless!
