{happy valentine's day: a giveaway}




Wishing all of you a wonderful Valentine's Day!


 

Our family enjoys a traditional heart shaped pizza for dinner and yummy home made heart shaped ice cream sandwiches {thanks to Martha's fantastic recipe} for dessert. I love buying the kids a small heart shaped box of chocolates for Valentine's. This year they have an inscription on the box written in a text message style, so fitting as my girls are always busy texting friends in their cryptic text. 


Since I am feeling the love this Valentine's Day, 


Why not have a giveaway from Lusso Bags to celebrate!



I discovered this wonderful shop via Twitter

Lusso bags, a socially-conscious company featuring quality travel, shoe, storage, and gift bags, is offering a giveaway of the Mrs. Bird Shoe Bag. Mrs. Bird is created by women in Kolkata, India, whose employment at Freeset has enabled them to leave the sex trade.

Isn't this a cute bag? Love the bird print
You could use this bag to store shoes or clothing while travelling, kids toys, beach bag, etc. What I love about this bag and company is that is gives back to women whose lives aren't as easy as ours; it empowers them!



This giveaway is open to all Canadian and US residents
Please note that shipping and handling may be extra.

This giveaway will be open until Sunday, February 20. I will post the winner's name on Monday, February 21.

  2. Well it's a toss-up between the bag you are giving away and the blue paisley shoe bag. What a wonderful giveaway - I love fair-trade stores.

  16. The florals are all nice, but I really like the Coral Peony bag...my favourite is the bird bag you're giving away though. It's a bit different from the others, and I love a good bird silhouette!
