**This giveaway is closed. Winner will be announced Dec. 25.**
The Winter Days Giveaways is only halfway through, but this is our last sponsor. You will have until next Friday to enter for giveaways announced this week. See the list of all the giveaways at the bar on the right. Then I will be announcing the winners of each giveaway beginning Monday. So come back to see if you won and see what else is happening at Simply Modern Mom.
Lindsay of Liliash is my last sponsor. Her site is organic and full of elegance. Lindsay does amazing work there at Liliash. She quilts, sews, bakes, cooks and puts up photo tutorials of the cutest clothing for children, like this Sweet Pea Coat. She is one who can make something out of nothing. She worked as a pastry chef before she became a full-time stay-at-home mom. And Liliash is a place for her to display her creative outlets. Where I go for inspirations and ideas. If you love her stuff as much as I do, you can purchase some at her store.
Lindsay is giving away ONE handmade tote, the m-m handbag pictured below. Each one of her totes are unique and created with eco friendly twill, beautiful designer fabrics and a subtle touch of vintage charm. The patchwork designs are sweet and simple, but the bag itself is constructed to withstand the heaviest of loads. This giveaway is only for U.S. residents.
