third blogiversary giveaway {closed}

:::this giveaway is closed:::

My third blogiversary was actually January 29th but I have been so busy the giveaway had to wait. I have so much I want to share but between the kids and other responsibilities there just isn't enough time in the day. I'll get it all out eventually!

the bike isn't part of the giveaway. I just like this bike so much I couldn't resist using it as a prop! I wish I could ride this bike all over town and fill the basket with goodies. Alas, Charlotte is a not a biking friendly city.

I know my last giveaway was a tote bag but I have since changed the way I was making them and wanted to give away a 'new and improved' tote bag.

The new tote has a black vinyl bottom that gives the bag a nice weight and structure and makes it more durable.

The rest of the bag is made with a medium weight canvas. The cheery + colorful print is from IKEA and is lined with a white canvas. There are two exterior pockets and two small interior pockets.

Tucked inside the bag are a few of my favorite things:

Essie nail polish in Chinchilly
Ritter Sport milk chocolate with hazelnuts (I love anything with hazelnuts!)
A braided leather bracelet (tutorial by Melissa Esplin- surprisingly easy. I made three in about 30 minutes and plan on making lots more as gifts)
A ring made from a vintage clip on earring
