What a great idea!!! I am a huge shutter bug too! My family is always giving me flak about it until they see the pictures. :) I think my favorite is the Pleated Ruffle. The velvety goodness had me squeeing with excitement!

What a great idea! I’ve never seen anything like this before. I love the Divine Damask with Red Minky or the Black/White Damask with Lime Minky. Love them!
LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM ALL! I am picturing a Valentine with a red satin flower on my camera right now. Can we both say together. TO DIE! Lexi Ray
I think the Pom Pom Flourish is my favorite. I know my husband would be happy to wear it also.
Wow – I love them all. I think I like the black and white damask the best, but I can’t decide which one – probably the one with the green polkadot ruffle. So original and so cute! Thanks for the chance to win! I just found your blog recently and am enjoying immensely!
LOVE the ruffled line – black and white damask with the lime green is my fave! And the rolled flowers add ons are to die for!
I love The Valentino!
I’ve just discovered her strap covers and I love them! My favorite is the Black and White Damask with the pink Minky liner. Such a great way to style up your camera!
Oh they are all beautiful…it’s hard to pick! I would have to say Black & White Damask (lime minky).
I love the French Girlie and the Gothic Rose…so hard to pick one favorite with so many beautiful choices! Thanks for the generous giveaway.
I love the Bow Tie! So cute!
I love them all, but I especially like the Valentino!
I love the Valentine! The ruffle is sooooo cute.
Cute!! I liked the turquoise and brown damask with brown minky!
I have seen those before–so cute! I like the valentine.
I really cannot decide between the Valentine and the Knot. Gorgeous. I would add a lens cap pocket and padding to mine. Oh, I want one so bad now! Hopefully I will win, otherwise I might have to part with some money at her website!!

I love her Henna strap…with an added on red satin flower:o)
Such cute stuff. I love it all. I really like the Black & White Damask w/ Lime Minky
ooh the turquoise and brown damask and brown minky – it matches my store logo… must have!!!
I love the Argyle… but also the Blue and Brown Damask. They are lovely! Thanks for the giveaway!
I’m not a shutterbug at all, but my daughter is and I think she’d love the “New York” strap the best. The lens pocket add-ins are nice, too. Thanks!
Love the Pleated Pink Houndstooth. I’m sure my new (very naked) camera would look wonderful wearing it!
Thanks for the opportunity.

Thanks for the giveaway!

I love the camera straps. I love them all!!! But really like ones with the ruffles. Thanks for such a great give away.
I love the “Valentine” strap … gorgeous! :o) I wouldn’t keep it if I won though, I don’t have a DSLR camera yet, so I’d probably give it to my mom.
I would love to give a camera strap to my friend who takes pictures for me. I really like the straps with the minky inside – especially the brown and turquoise damask with the brown minky.
I am a big *Shey* [B] Fan!!! I love her stuff!!!! My new fave is the Tuxedo!!!!

I looove the gold velvet ruffled one!!
My Favorite is the Valentino!!!
I like the tuxedo strap. It is so cool and sophisticated. I also like the fact that she puts a pocket for the lens cap and/or battery, memory card.

I am in love with two! The valentino and the pleated ruffle. Actually, I can’t just pick two. I love them all!
What a great giveaway! I love the blooms cover, and I would totally add a pocket. I am always fumbling with my lens cover!
Oh, how could you choose one favorite, I would have to narrow it down to two the red lacey and the knot. Oh, and also the pink ruffle houndstooth and the pink polka dot one. Okay, so I narrowed it to four! I think I like these staps better than shoes!
Thanks, Holly

It’s hard to pick just one, but my favorite would have to be the Valentine. I love the red with the black and white. I became a fan of Shey*B on facebook and I’ve had my eye on this one! Thanks for the great giveaway. I’ll keep my fingers crossed :)

I love the black and white damask with orange minky (although my 3-year-old, sitting next to me, wanted to make her preference known: Poppyfield Dreams).
Love these!
I love the ruffled black and white damask. Thanks for the giveaway!
I am finding this very stressful to pick a favorite! They are all awesome in their own way. I love the argyle for being a retro preppy classic but I have always been a sucker for damask. But love the ones with Trees also. Any way you cute it she has great taste!
I love the Valentine camera strap! So cute!
The Valentine! I love it! I want it!
I’ve been wanting one of those stylish camera straps for some time now—I LOVE the Valentine!!
Thanks!
Love the aqua dot! All of her stuff is great.
Aqua dot or expresso damask… hmmm I would take any of them. They are so much cuter than the alternative black strap.
Love them ALL! My favorites are the damask with red minky and the valentine. Love the ruffles, love the fabric, love the idea of change them out as often as I change my mind!
Love the Black Damask with pink minky!! So talented!
