OMG! It's the Uber Awesome 1000th Sale Giveaway

Wow! When I started my etsy shop in Feb 2007, I though 1000 sales was just a dream...but I did it! I reached my 1000th sale this week! I want to thank everyone for their support, because I couldn't have done it without you! Because you guys are all so awesome, I decided to have my very first giveaway to celebrate!

What am I giving away you ask? Well, it's a surprise....but it will come in the cute little Mr. Toastee tote bag pictured below. And no, you do not get my Pullip doll ^_^ I won't tell you what's in there, but I'll tell you this...it's a plethora of Yummy Pancake fun! It's even better than getting a bag of crap from woot.com!!


How do you enter? It's simple! Just leave a comment at the end of this post and tell me what your favorite Yummy Pancake creation is. Be sure to also include your e-mail address so that I can contact you if you win! If you post about this giveaway on your blog or facebook, I'll hook you up with some extra chances to win! Entries must be received by Friday, October 16th at midnight EST. Winner will be announced on Saturday, October 17th ^_^

Woot!

Hi, I lLOVEEEEE all your creatins, so picking my favorite is really hard. Ok, my favorite has to be the happy happy ice cream cone triple scoop, because of a couple of reasons. One is that it was my first food plushie from you I have. My friend gave it to me for my birthday. I love it because of all of the happy faces. Each scoop gets its own happy face!! The smiles brighten my day, with the cute pushpin eyes, and the little v smile, I love it!! I also like Mr. Nanner. He makes me happy. I love the name of him! And I love how you can take off his skin. You are a wizard in awesomeness, YummyPancake, and you are sure to brighten anyone's day. :-)

I like everything you make, they're fun and cute. Who wouldn't love them? My personal fav. the hamburger dress. 2nd fav, must be the edge n' sketch, just because I love toys

Samaria Project said...

YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEE!

I have to admit it is equal between toasties and your ice cream cones...I LURVE LURVE them!!! My Mr. Toastie hangs out in my craft area and brightens my day every morning and evening *sigh* How I adore him :)

Rochila said...

Totally has to be the zombie Mr Toastee!

brains AND butter? he must be the happiest of all Mr Toastees! :D

Mr. Toastee is the coolest kid in school according to all of my friends (and he was quite a hit with all of the food industry leaders at the last conference we went to). My coworkers are also in love with Cornelius but I think that's because they're corn researchers and are biased...

Congratulations on your 1,000th sale!

LOVEANDASANDWICH said...

Well my favorite is obviously the one I have here which is the bunny ice cream you made me in our trade! :D
I also loved your crocheted Jagermeister with the drunken party Toastie. :D

Absolutely Small said...

Congratulations Yummy!! That is so awesome!
My current favorites would have to be the awesome banana dress you made for your Pullip...oh, or that amazing plush Jagermeister...that was amazing, too! You've got skills.

Erika said...

My favorite is your Chewbacca cookies!! :) But they're so adorable--especially anything to do with toast.

Congratulations!!!! How absolutely fantastic! I've actually got my eyes on Zombie Mr Toastee. I have a good feeling he'll be coming home with me very soon. ;)

Unknown said...

How could anyone have a favorite? Well, if my house were burning down, and I could only grab one of your creations, I would HAVE to grab the easy bake oven, because that one is such a precious, one-of-a-kind treasure that I value beyond reason.

Congrats on your uber-succesfulness!

Weird Bug Lady said...

Ahhhh how fun! All your creations are so adorable. I'm partial to the original Mr. Toastee :)

Congratulations on the milestone! I'm partial to the bananas, especially the dress you made for your doll. But the drunk Mr. Toastee with the puffy eyes and his Jagermeister were pretty great too.

Unknown said...

too cute! and I freakin' love your stuff. gratz on the 1000th sale. I wish I could sell that much stuff on my Etsy =(

Gratz again!

Amanda @RusticRemnants said...

You have so many great creations but I do have a favorite. It was one of your more recent, the Hippie Mr. Toastee. Somehow it just seemed like that is what he was meant to be all along. It just fit too well. Definitely my favorite.

Frazer said...

A 1000 is a lot! Good job!

I think I love the Peas!

Christina Ward said...

Congrats on your success. It is much deserved. I remember the first time I saw your Mr. Nanner; just amazing. Elegant and humorous design executed beautifully!

Don't pick me to win your contest! I just wanted to say congrats and thanks for making the world a little happier.

Richelle said...

We have the original Mr. Toastee and think he is too cool for words. Whenever my four-year-old finds him around the house, he runs and brings him to me and says, "Look, Mom! I found Mr. Toastee!" He is so warm and happy. My kids think his butter pat is his "pocket". He keeps his toast phone and toast money in there. Now that I've seen the hamburger pouch though, I'm starting to think I really need one of those too. Such great ideas that you can't find anywhere else besides YUMMY PANCAKE!

Congratulations on your 1000th sale!

I'm in love with everything Mr. Toastee! I love all of his outfits (he's very stylish). The Singer Sewing machine is also a favorite :) The detail that was put into the plush is amazing... and adorable!

Katie said...

My favorite has got to be the Creepy Breakfast Monster. He's got the weirdest lopsided eyes and slanted mouth... such an odd eggheaded little man. He seems sad that he's creepy, so I just love him to death because he needs all of the love he can get. My Creepy Breakfast Monster has travelled with me up to Maine and enjoyed making s'mores, swimming, and lounging about with Mr. Toastee. I nicknamed him Sir Francis Bacon because he needed a proper name :-)

Of course, Mr. Toastee is the man. Still, I'll have to go with Creepy Breakfast Monster! :-)

Like I have always told you, you are so creative at all that you do. I admire every piece. Congrats on your success and may you sell many 1,000's more. Picking my favorite is really hard, I myself own a Mrs. Toastee which I took to a fabulous trip to PR and she well behaved and enjoyed it very much and my kids each have a mini Mr. Toastee who went to PR as well this summer. If I would have to choose my favorite it will have to be the jellyfish you did when you went to the Outer Banks, I love the yarn you used and every detail of it...I wish you the best always at what you do!!! Exito!!!! :^)

Jaclyn said...

Congrats on 1000 sales!!! I'd have to say my favorite creation of yours is good ol' Mr. Toastee!

Kim and Dustin said...

Hi! Congratulations on building your business! If I had to choose a favorite it would probably be the Mr. Toastee with the adorable Halloween Cat costume! Thanks for writing the blog, I really enjoy seeing all the cute things you've come up with! Also, my husband loves the Wookie Cookies!

Liana loves Mr. Nanner best of all. He was her first of many Yummies (we even had to drive to PA just to check out the store) and she loves all his uber cool peels. She dresses him in his festive wear when he is feelng festive, puts him is his jammies for bed, puts on his tux for special occasions, his jeans and ball cap for everyday wear, and his camouflage peel for when he doesn't want to be seen. His best friend is Mr. Toastee and they live together in the Yummy Pancake Residence. Zombie Mr. Toastee just came to live with us too. Here is our e-mail address. lianasmom97@aol.com Keep on creating!

Bonney said...

I have to go with the candy corn Mr. Toastee. He's really cute! That hamburger dress is wonderful too!

kmp24 said...

I can't believe I've never seen your etsy store before ! Everything is just absolutely adorable ! It was hard to choose a favourite, but I'd have to go with the Amigurumi Baby Jellyfish ! It's so cute and I love the little tentacles. & in second place I'd have to choose the Original Mini Mr.Toastee, that's quite cute as well. I'm definitely buying myself one of each sometime soon. :)

Su-Ee said...

Congratulations on your 1000 sale! More sales to come!

I love all your creations but if I were to choose one, it would be the original Mr Toastee!

Lowell and Son said...

Congrats! I was excited with 100 sales, I can't imagine 1000. My fave is Plush Bottle Of Jagermeister with Drunk Mr. Toastee, that look on his face is super. Second would be Zombie Mr. Toastee, love that fabric back drop too.

I will post about your giveaway on my blog, check in a day or two. I have my fingers crossed that I will soon be a member of the Plush Team also...

I first heard of you when I saw a photo of the adorable sewing machine you made. As a sewer (and sometimes crocheter), I had to come and check out the rest of your work. It's all amazing! Even my husband thought your Star Wars creations were impressive. Congratulations on your 1000th sale!

Bailey, Mazzy and Christopher are huge fans of all of your things. Bailey likes the jellyfish the best. Mazzy likes her hot pink ice cream cone. Christopher aka Critter likes his Mr. Toastee Keychain. Between the three of them, they have 18 plushies, 1 bacon bracelet and 1 ring. Most of these they saved their own money for!!! Congratulations for your 1000 sales!!

Congrats, and thank you, you're the reason I discovered amigurumi! I'm now trying to decide which plushie to buy from your site! Choose one... I guess it will have to be Tommy Tomato! I posted your contest on my blog (which is also my name on Etsy) : http://chechellesfolies.blogspot.com/

Keep up the uber-awesome work!!!

Good luck to everyone! :)

I was so distracted by the many choices I forgot my email: rachelledumas _at_ gmail.com

Debbie said...

My previous ultimate favorite was the costumes for Mr. Toastee (especially the cat), but then I saw the zombie-like Mr. Toastee in one of your latest posts, and omg, NEW FAVORITE!

A visit to your blog is a smile every day. :)
