Remember all of the awesome decorations and cupcake toppers from Gianna's birthday post? Those were all done by amazing friend, Erin of Haute Blue B who is hosting today's awesome giveaway. Holla!
I love handmade for many reasons. Because it's unique. Because it's special. Because it's quality. Because it supports other crafters. Because it's a piece of someone's heart...But most of all I love handmade because of all the wonderful people I have met since I started making buying handmade a priority. Heather being one of them! The handmade community has offered me opportunities to learn, grow, and be inspired by some amazing talents. And in turn, I have had opportunities to teach, develop and share my talents with others. I am always happy when I am creating. Whether that be in the kitchen, on my sewing machine, or for an event. But I am my happiest when creating also equals comeraderie and common good. Handmade makes that possible!
Hi! I am Erin from Bringing Up Burns and Haute Blue B! I am married to my best friend and together we are having a blast raising 3 little loves. Life is loud, messy and going by way too fast! But I do my best to find joy in the chaos and make the most of each and every moment.

I'd love for you to come take a whirl around my shop! "Hot Blue" is what my girls nicknamed my favorite color (Turquoise) when they were itty bitty. And ever since, it's stuck. B is one of my initials, as well as my favorite letter to write. I love to plan parties and create all the little handmade touches that make an event special. Haute Blue B is party and whimsy and chic and FUN all wrapped up into handmade happiness. I fall a little bit in love with each item I create. I hope you do too!
