A Giveaway from Made by Meegz
I found one of my all time favorite Etsy Shops recently...Made by Meegz! Since my husband bought me a new camera for Christmas, it has become one of my FAVORITE things to do - take pictures!! I'm so glad I found Made by Meegz! Megan is one stylish designer and I'm in love with her camera straps! Trust me, no matter WHAT kind of camera you own, Megan has something for YOU! Make your camera yours, spot it in a crowd, put a Made by Meegz strap on your camera and it will set you apart - in your own world of style!
Megan's SLR camera straps are a fun addition to any camera. "Depending on your height, photographers can wear the shorter (32 inch) strap around their neck or shoulder and the longer strap(38 inch) around their body for less stress on the neck and back."
Made by Meegz is the home and creator of the "super functional Quick Release strap. This strap is great to take off to switch to another strap depending on your mood & location. They are also great to get rid of that annoying strap when shooting on a tripod. Finally, you can just take off the strap all together and clip the two ends of the nylon webbing together to carry your SLR with a small handle. You can't go wrong with the QUICK RELEASE STRAP"...there are just so many great accessories to pick from at Made by Meegz!
The good part? You never have to worry about the safety of your camera: The nylon webbing on these straps has been tested at 600 pounds. The fabric strap and plastic has been tested at 100 pounds. Sounds pretty sturdy to me!
Megan takes custom orders, so if you can think it, she can create it! You can also find wrist straps, lanyards and key chains at Made by Meegz!
I recently asked Megan to tell us a bit more about her shop. Here's what she had to say:
What is the inspiration behind your Etsy Shop?
The kids are growing up so I have more time now -- gives me "purpose" as a SAHM -- and I am REALLY enjoying sewing.
Also(as printed on my sidebar of www.madebymeegz.com):I'm so excited to have this new site. I have always stayed at home to take care of our kids and even though it's been what I want to do, I've always felt like I was missing something.
This site is helping me to have the best of both worlds. I made a camera strap for a photog friends birthday earlier this year, she loved it, and the camera straps have just blossomed from there.
I'm loving designing and creating unique straps for YOU!
What is your favorite item in the shop?
Any reversible strap -- TWO in ONE!
What is your most popular strap?
Garden with Style and Splash of Red
Thanks, Megan!
Megan is giving away ONE item of your choice to a very lucky Champagne Wisdom reader - yay!!

Camera Strap - Reverse Sillouette

I learned that the camera straps were created longer so they can be worn across your body instead of the neck, which helps alleviate the stress off your neck.
I love all the designs. I'd go wtih Warm Dots as my favorite.
I'd like to see some whimsical animal patterns: dogs, cats, birds, etc.
I learned that the reason my camera strap makes my neck sore is that it is probably too short, and a longer strap I could wear across by body would be better.
i love the whimsical garden strap

Hey Meegz...I LOVE the designs you already have, but how 'bout a tie-dye strap?? Wouldn't that be cool...a nice little starburst in primary colors? :D

I learned that Meegz has a variety of types of camera straps, including wristlet straps for little cameras and heavier-duty straps for DSLRs. She also has a few lengths available, depending on personal comfort (I suppose?).
