Random Giveaway: Small Vendors Rock!

Do you know what it's time for? Another Small Vendors Rock Giveaway. Don't know what that is? Well, it's simple really. I contact a few of my favorite small vendors or etsy shops or artists. And we put together a prize package that you'll absolutely love. Enter your comment on this post and you could win a big bundle of loot including:

1) Pleated Bell Handbag in Amy Butler fabric by Jump Up and Down.
This handbag is gorgeous. Wouldn't you just want to carry it everywhere? To the park. To the store. To the flea market. Especially to the flea market — it's so inspiring, you'd be sure to find the coolest stuff. And speaking of the coolest stuff, check out the rest of Jump Up and Down's wares. Cute banners. Cute aprons. Cute stuff. The handbag retails for $44.


2) A Gift Certificate for a Big Combo from Mabel's Labels.
The Big Combo consists of:
- one set of 45 Sticky Labels
- one set of 50 Iron-On or 75 Tag-Mates™ Labels
- one set of 24 Shoe Labels
- and 2 Bag Tags
You get choose choose colors. And the name can be whatever you would like to a maximum of 20 characters. I loved having these as I was labeling my kids school supplies. Plus, I like the name Mabel. The Big Combo retails for $55.


3) A Handknit Baby Pumpkin Hat from ecoknits.
Could the timing be better? A perfect little pumpkin hat for your own little pumpkin to welcome the fall. And this one is super-duper soft. Handknit with organic cotton that is grown and harvested without agri-chemicals. So many pretty options for sale at ecoknits — this grey-blue one is gorgeous. The hat retails for $25.



4) Two Stained Glass Stars from artist Rebecca Knudsen.
I have seen Rebecca's creations in real life and they are so delightful. These will brighten your kitchen/living room/bedroom window like nothing else. Best part: you get to pick the colors. More of a green person? No problem. Just let Rebecca know what you're looking for and she'll hook you up. One for you and one for a friend? Or. One for you and another one for you. The stars retail for $15 to $35 each.



5) A Customized Blumebox and a My Monet Blumebox from Floribunda Designs.
These custom vases would be perfect for a baby shower or bridal get together. You get to pick the color and design for the custom Blumebox. And your kids will get a My Monet Blumebox complete with crayons to decorate it. What will your Blumebox look like? The two boxes retail for $20.


6) A $25 gift certificate from Quote the Walls.
Put your favorite quote over a doorway. Add your child's name to the side of a bookcase. Put up the family motto in the living room. You decide the quote, you decide the color, you decide the lettering. Which leaves basically a million possibilities. In fact, maybe you should forget about a quote all together and instead, order a few dozen circles and put polkadots all over your bathroom door.

In case you missed it, that's six terrific vendors sponsoring prizes for one lucky Design Mom reader worth about $200. Nice. And how great is it to find ways to support small businesses? Check out their wares. Buy something you love. Or make of note of something cool you want to remember. You'll be making gift lists right around the corner — get some great ideas from the vendors featured in this Giveaway.

Thank you small vendors!
