What better way to celebrate Black Friday than doing my second Handmade Happiness give-away today?! I was pretty sure you would all agree that it was rather suitable timing, so I’m thrilled to be showing off another wonderfully talented young lady! Meet Sarah of Fika Home Decor.
Tell us your name, where you’re from, and 3 of your favorite things.
Hello! My name is Sarah Swenson, and I live in Saint Paul, MN. I love coffee, scarves, and my hot glue gun.
How long ago did you start your shop, and what initially inspired you to do so?
My shop is SUCH a baby!! It is all brand new as of October 19th, so this truly my most recent adventure. I was inspired to open it after literally YEARS of my friends telling me that I should. I’ve always enjoyed creating unique decor for my own living spaces, and now it is my joy to offer the same beautiful, unusual objects to YOU! Seriously, it feels like I’m getting paid to play. Dream come true.
What’s your favorite thing to create?
That’s a toss-up between working with paper and working with fabric. Actually, I really love complex multi-media pieces that incorporate both, although I’m not offering any in the store (yet!). So… anything with lots of patterns and a touch of whimsy!
Isn’t her stuff just the cutest?! I would LOVE to have some of it gracing my home, so whoever wins is going to be one lucky person! Of course, the rest of us can still grab some of her amazing stuff because her prices are so fantastic! But without further ado, see below to enter the give-away!
Be sure to connect with Sarah so you can keep up with her beautiful work: The blog (which she contributes to with a friend) | The store | Facebook | Sarah’s Pinterest
Good luck, everyone! And be sure to spread the word to your family and friends. This give-away is only live until Tuesday! HAPPY BLACK FRIDAY! :)
Such adorable stuff! Would absolutely LOVE to win :)
Her stuff is amazing! i pretty much never win raffles, but i got my fingers crossed! and…it may just be me, but i couldn’t get the link to her store to work…
Very cute stuff!! I would love to be able to win this giveaway! :)
Sorry if the links didn’t work before! I’ve checked/updated all of them, so they should be good, now! :) Thanks for the heads-up, Marybeth!
I’d love her “home is where I’m with you” painting. That’s one of my husband and my’s songs. :)
I would love to win this give away! Such adorableness! :o)

Beautiful stuff going on at Fika! I’m absolutely in love with her creativity and encouragement for others to be creative. Still need to try making my own skinny jeans ;)
I love Fika and have been following Sarah ever since I met her lovely self this past summer at Delta institute. She kept me from going insane this summer by being an awesome lab teacher! She continues to keep me from going insane as a first year teacher by all the lovely blog posts and fun DIY projects!
