CLOSED -Mom's Day Giveaway!

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED! CLICK HERE TO SEE IF YOU WON


EDIT: Error with end dates. Has been updated.


Here I was just bopping along on my merry way when I realized that Mothers Day was fast approaching and I wasn't even done my "Approved-Gift List" for my husband. I have since narrowed it down to a sewing machine and a necklace with name charms for my guys.


Plus I've narrowed down a few zillion pairs of shoes I might treat myself too.


But what I have for you today is a Mommy Day's giveaway for all you lovely lovely mommys, moms-to-be, or a gift to give another mom, or moms to fur babies and shoes (yes shoes are babies too!)


During the hours I spend searching Etsy a week I bumped into Anne from Handmade by Anne Potter.


Anne's a SAHM to 5 (this includes a teenager! Blessings to you Anne!!!) kiddos and loves to use recycled and interesting material in her work.


Anne's shop includes beautiful home decor, jewelry, accessories, and holiday pieces.


Everything in Anne's shop is inspired by travel and her shop donates 50% of all profits to missions! Gotta love that! 


Check just some of the great things from her shop!

My favorite!!!!!

Anne has graciously offered to give one of our readers this adorable Cape Cod Linen Market Bag. Love, love, love this bag and I wish I could win it, but sadly I'm not eligible (or I am I? hehehe)

To enter all you have to do is leave a comment telling me what's on your Mom's Day wish list with your email address.

Slob Proof WINNER!

Congratulations Janet & Maya you are comment number 20 and the winner of Debbie's book. I'll be emailing you now with instructions on how to claim your prize!

Thanks to everyone who entered. I really appreciate it. I wanted to reiterate again that I'm not going to become a strictly giveaway/review blog. Those to me tend to be way to commercialized and you can tell the person is only doing it for the free product. But I do have a couple other cool stuff lined up but I think I'm going to limit the giveaways to only once a month. 

Thanks again everyone!
