The Peacock Shop (Giveaway!)

I love coffee. And I love birds (Michaela's middle name is "Byrd").

To find an Etsy shop that combines my love of caffeinated beverages and frilly frou frou birdie stuff would be a dream come true.

So you can imagine my delight when sweet Kathlyn from The Peacock Shop contacted me about advertising on Serenity Now. Her fun shop, open since May of 2008, features beautiful hand-painted mugs, tea cups, prints, and pillows.

The fun little peacock logo is what drew my attention first. "Paula and Percy Peacock" were invented during one of Kathlyn's doodling sessions, and they feature prominently in her designs.

Kathlyn describes her style as "simple and cute with a lot of turquoise mixed in between."

I see:

Color


Whimsy

Comfort

A Sense of Humor
The best part about The Peacock Shop? Kathlyn offers customizations for FREE! Whether you have an inside joke you want her to add to the inside of the rim, a Bible verse to the front, or your favorite quotation, talk to Kathlyn and she'll work it out. If you're going to drink your coffee/tea/mocha at home, why not do it in style?

You can also find Kathlyn, an Army wife, blogging about family, friends, and crafting at The Patriotic Peacock.

Kathlyn is generously offering a Giveaway this week for readers at Serenity Now!

The Peacock Shop is giving away one adorable "Fancy Peacock Teacup" to a lucky reader.
This fancy, hand-painted tea cup is decked out with pink and turquoise jewels.

Here's how to enter:

Visit The Peacock Shop and then come back here to leave me a comment telling me what your favorite item is.

The contest is open until 5 pm (ET) on Sunday, March 28th. I'll announce the winner on Monday. Good luck!

{Happy Shopping!}

Interested in advertising your shop/blog/business here on Serenity Now? See my advertising page for more info., or shoot me an email!

  11. Her products are really cute! I like several of the cups she has in her shop, most especially the turquoise mug, but I think most interesting of all is the fact that she'll personalize a cup. It would be so much fun to have a private joke or personal message on a cup.

    Very kind of her and you to offer this giveaway!

  41. I have loved Kathlyn's stuff for a long time! My favorite is the mustache and lips mugs ( wouldn't they be perfect for a bridal party?!) I also love the Pillow (love the fabric on the back as well!) and the Monogrammed mugs - good idea to get a set for a newly engaged/married couple! I hope I win, but you better believe I'm purchasing for the next bridal shower either way!
