Featured Etsy Designer -- Hailey of Shop Brydferth plus a giveaway!



Hailey of Shop Brydferth (welsh for beautiful) is one of the sweetest gals we have worked with at cupcakeMAG. Hailey's passion for her shop shines through and we are thrilled to share our chat with all of you! Her shop is filled with plenty of beautifil one-of-a-kind creations we are just lusting after. You will instantly fall in love with the sweetness. 

 {1} What made you begin your shop?


I have always loved fabric.  I get this feeling of excitement when I walk in a fabric store and my mind races with ideas.  I decided I had to find something to make using fabric.  My middle name is Rose, after my Grandmother and like my Grandmother, I've always loved roses.  So I put the two together and started Shop Brydferth.

{2} What are some of your other favorite Etsy shops?  


There are so many wonderful shops on Etsy with such amazing sellers and crafters behind them.  Some of my favorites are:

TimelessPaper: http://www.etsy.com/shop/TimelessPaper 
{A dear friend whom I have met on Etsy, I love her product and she has a great blog}

NatalieFrench: http://www.etsy.com/shop/NatalieFrench  
{I admire her photography and her blog}

TaylorHouse: http://www.etsy.com/shop/taylorhouse  
{I have one of her cowls and it is lovely!}

{My little toy poodle loves her Alpaca sweater}

WaterRose: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Waterrose  
{Her embroidery work amazes me}

{3} What is your favorite item currently in your shop?
I really like my wedding pieces and my couture statement bib necklaces like this one. I love the idea of having the secret pocket on the back to stash that secret money for "just in case" or for those nights out when you don't want to carry a purse.  


{4} What is up next for you?  

I have so many ideas that I dream up constantly.  Right now I am feeling that I need to do more for bridal pieces.  Best thing is to just keep checking back as my designs are always improving and the inspirations are endless.  I like to work as the inspiration moves me at that time and on that day.
