I like Pretty Things…

Just in case you weren’t sure, I thought you should know.  And I have some incredibly pretty things sitting in my dining room right now.  Want to know what they are?

{So. Awesome.} 

Sharon at Elphia Designs has given me two of her beautiful handmade handbags to share with two of my fantabulous readers.  Not yet, mind you.  I like to build up the suspense and make you wait. 

Not too long though, I promise!

How cute is this blue and tan handbag?  I think this would this would be awesome to use at, say, a farmers market.  Although I love our local farmers markets, I know I would end up using this bag at the places I am most frequently found at:  Target and The Dollar Store.  I’m just telling it like it is, people.

Sharon searches out the most beautiful fabrics to make her bags out of.  The purple and diamond patterned fabrics on this long handled bag are so pretty together.  I don’t know where she gets her inspiration from, but I am in awe of her talent with a sewing machine. 

I can’t wait to share these bags with two lucky readers.  Since next month is my birthday, I’ve decided to have a whole week of giveaways to celebrate.  After all, the only thing better then getting is giving, right?

I’ll let you know all the giveaway specifics as well as what other awesome stuff I’ll be giving away in upcoming posts.  I can’t wait!

If you’d like to see what other amazing creations Sharon has made, you can visit her shop at Elphia Designs or see what she’s up to on her blog.  She’s new to blogging (newer than me, that is!) so stop by her place and say hi.  I know she’d love to hear from you!

The next giveaway I have to tell you about is from Dayspring, and it is soooo cool!  ACK!  I can’t wait to give away all this awesome stuff!!!

Those are awesome. I think they would also be great to store the books kids get from library. (That way they would all be in one place when it's time to return them!!!!) - Karri

What a great idea, Karri - I love it! The kids and I spend a lot of time at the library (especially in the summer) and a lot of wasted time looking for lost library books.

Okay I can't wait to find out more about the giveaway. But good idea on using the bags for the farmers market. I would totally do that!

I love our local farmers markets and I always end up hauling stuff around in the hood of the stroller. A bag would be sooo much better! : )
