Giveaway: *bespoke* zine #2

Issue 2 of *bespoke* is almost ready for release, and thanks to the lovely & creative Jess Van Den (the blogger behind EpheriellDesigns.com), The Tea Children is lucky to have 1 copy of Issue 2 to giveaway to our lovely readers.


After stumbling upon this lovely publication during a browsing session online, I am very excited for this issue and the cover art work is just gorgeous. Another thing I like about *bespoke* is that it is written totally by the community, for the community.

Issue 2 includes articles such as:
- vintage crafts - rag ruggin'
- how to find your vintage era
- a tutorial on how to carve a sweet birdie stamp
- the stories of 3 women who gave up corporate careers to launch thriving creative businesses
- thrive - an interview with a crafty lady making a full-time living from her upcycled kimono jewellery
- and lots more.

Issue 1 had a print run of 500 copies, which all sold out, and issue 2 has a limited run of only 1,000. So be quick if you want to grab yourself a copy, or why not enter this giveaway? Jess is also always on the look our for submissions for future issues so head over to the Submissions page to find out more.

All you have to do is leave a comment below telling us why you would love to have this issue of *bespoke* {don't forget to leave a valid way of contacting you & be a blog follower}.


Entries close Sunday March 20th with the winner announced not long after. Good Luck!

I love zines, I love vintage and I love the fact that it's made out of actual paper and not just online. Something tangible you can flip through and hold - my idea of a real treat!
