Here are the items for the Etsymom Auction, as seen on Etsymom's Blog. Bidding for the basket of goodies has begun and will continue until 3/17 or 3/18.

It's Not Easy Bein' Green

Today I said good-bye to my favorite bag. We could have had a great run at it: the bag's endless supply of space and pockets, my need to always carry way to much. We really could have been good together; she had several cubbies, and I have lots of little bits to carry about. And we would have looked great together too. It's shades of green would have cheered me up and warmed my soul in this last phase of winter....But alas, the request came from an aquaintance...it would be perfect for her daughter. I guess we weren't meant to work out. Farewell, Springtime Carry-All Tote....

Etsymom Promo Spring Contest

The Etsymom Street Team (sounds like a gang huh?) is running a Spring promo in which members of Etsymom submit an item with the Spring/Easter theme. All of the items will go up for auction at Mommy Auctions. Half of the proceeds will go to a charity voted upon by Etsymom members, the other half will go to the winner of the contest. The winner will be determined by a vote of Etsymom members. So here is my entry: Springing Up Floral Clutch/Wallet. If you like this, convo me at Sassy Stitches and I can stitch up a similar one for you. More on this later about when you can check out the auction....wish me luck....
