Etsy Surprise Box Giveaway!

I love to do Surprise Goodie Box Giveaways! And this time, thirteen creative and talented women have donated their items for the surprise box. All but one of them can be found on Etsy, so we are going to call it an Etsy Surprise Goodie Box Giveaway! We are all so excited to be doing this! I want to thank all of these wonderful ladies for trusting me enough to send me their items and allowing me to do this.

This Etsy Surprise Goodie Box Giveaway celebrates talent, women and handmade items! I think it is so important to support independently-owned stores and shops, especially when they are owned by talented women!

Please take the time to look at each and every one of these shops. Remember that Christmas is coming and it is never too early to shop for the perfect gift!

I plan on doing two more Etsy Surprise Goodie Box Giveaways in the next 3-4 months, so if you own an online shop, store or boutique and your items are handmade/handcrafted, drop me an email if you would like to be involved.

So......would you like to win this awesome Etsy Surprise Goodie Box? Let me tell you what the winner will receive. A box packed full of goodies that these store owners sell in their shops. They have carefully chosen items they feel that any woman would love to have. So if you want a clue of what is in the box, you have to visit their shops to see what they offer, then start dreaming!!! Approximate value of the items in the box? Between $275-300!!  

The contest will end on November 10 at 8pm CST. The winner will be randomly chosen.

Here is how to enter to win:

NOTE: When you leave a comment that is worth more than one entry, please add those extra entries yourself. I use the honor system, but also try to make sure that everyone is playing fair :)
