I met Suzanne, from
Just Another Hang Up, through hosting Bloomin' Tuesday. She is having a tote giveaway so of course I signed up. Each blogger pics a number and the one closest to the number she has chosen wins one of her beautiful totes. I picked 25 because my birthday is June 25th and jokingly told Suzanne a tote would be a great birthday present! I got an e-mail from Suzanne the next day and she asked for my address so she could send me a birthday and thank you for hosting Bloomin' Tuesday present. Imagine my surprise when I opened a package from her that came in today's mail and found this!
I am totally in love with this wonderful tote! Suzanne said it was perfect for someone named Ms Green Thumb Jean since it is green and has flowers! I love the bright green materials !
I love the darling front pocket, and the covered button,
the nice canvas straps,
and the sturdy inside pockets. It even has a covered base in the bottom.
I had asked Suzanne if she sold her totes and she said it was more fun to give them away but just this week she has hinted that she will start selling them. I just can't get over this wonderful gift and will think of my blogging friend every time I use it. Please, go visit
Just Another Hang Up and tell her I sent you ! Thank you, Suzanne!
I also got this award from Lea, at the
Shabby Olde Potting Shed, this week. Thank you , Lea! I feel honored that you think of my blog as creative and interesting!
