Accessories. The part of my wardrobe that I could not go without.
A bold necklace. A sassy scarf. A great pair of bold earrings. A stylish belt.
And, now….
I first heard of these brilliant little accessories at Blissdom 2010. Everyone had one on, and I was mesmerized by them.
“What is that you’re wearing?” I asked a friend.
“It’s a Pleated Poppy Posy! Oh. Em. Gee. You have to find the woman who makes them. She’s giving them out with her business cards. Her name is Lindsey Cheney,” she replied.
“For REAL?” I said, all flabbergasted.
“Yes, for real,” she claimed.
I did finally find her and my friend was right, she had Pleated Poppy posies attached to her business card.
This cute-as-a-button-woman-whom-I-really-wanted-to-fold-up-and-put-in-my-pocket-to-take-home-with-me was a genius; giving away her poppies with her business card was, I don’t care who you are, GENIUS!
I wore the heck out of that one poppy. I’d wear it on tops, on a necklace chain (yes, a necklace chain), on a headband, and even affixed it on my purse. And then Olivia stole it from me.
Something about, Mama, Mama, I love it, please can I just keep it in my room, blah, blah, blah…
I’ve yet to see it return to my dresser.
Luckily for me cute-as-a-button-Lindsey-whom-I-really-really-really-wanted-to-fold-up-and-put-in-my-pocket-to-take-home-with-me-when-I-met-her-in-Nashville contacted me recently to see if I’d be interested in giving away some poppies to my readers!
It didn’t take me but 4.7 seconds to respond to her email.
Would I ever?
Absolutely!
To win your very own set of posies just visit Lindsey’s shop and tell me which are your favorite.
That’s it. Super simple. I’ll announce the winner on Friday. Good luck!
*Disclosure: The Pleated Poppy posies photographed in this post were sent to me, free of charge, to photograph, enjoy, love, and not let Olivia steal from me!

oh, love these! Tough choice but when I think of my Belle and these lovelies, 494 would be perfect!
# 493 would be my choice. They are all too neat though.
Love & Hugs,
Pam
In the pins I love idance and in the hair clips 180. How adorable!!
I like #188.
I love the ‘idance’ Poppy Pins!
How do you choose? I adore the idance pins but equally tied for the top spot would be #484.
I have been a huge fan of the Pleated Poppy for awhile now! This is such a great give-a-way! It’s hard to chose which is my favorite. It’s a toss up between 485 and 495.

So hard to choose, but I do love Posy Pins #485
Oh, I just love ’em all, silly.
Oh, sure…it’s EASY to enter the contest…SIMPLE. Problem – you told us to pick favorites. How about everything in the shop? No? Well, then I guess 493. Would go with just about everything I have ;)
These are ADORABLE! Great photos!
I am in love with the Ruby Red pedal pusher. So pretty, and classic!
I kind of LOVE all of them, but if forced to choose just one, it would have to be the posy hair clip 187. Or maybe the posy pins 495.
I pretty much love all of them, but idance are my absolute favorite!
I like the petal pusher in sterling. so pretty and almost looks purple. My favorite color.
Ooh I love the yellow and grey ones! Cute!

I can’t believe you’re making us choose! They’re all AWESOME! Ok, alright, posy pins 485.
OMG – I LURVE these! I love 186 & 187 – I hope I win and I hope I’m not dead to you now :)
Oh, hello pretty chocolate and pink marshmallow apron! You shall be mine. Oh yes, by hook or crook, you SHALL be mine.
The ones you picked are awesome, and I’d love any of the poppies.
Dude! How cute are those. I love these http://shop.thepleatedpoppy.com/. Some of my favorite colors.
Ok, I’m a little obsessed with rosettes & these are super freaking cute. I’m crushing on #187 pretty hard.
