Fab Freebie: Bada-Bing, Bada-Bloom

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Random.org has helped us select the winner of this craft-tastic giveaway as… Sarah Spitser (who loves the Spring weather, even though in Texas it only lasts about 3 weeks). Congrats!

Last winter we had a blast at the Richmond Craft Mafia’s Handmade Holiday fair (and later gave away some of our favorite finds). And when we caught wind of their Spring Bada-Bing event happening this Sunday we were all sorts of excited. So we worked with them to put together another craft-tastic, wholly-handmade, reeking-of-Richmond prize pack featuring some of the Craft Mafia’s most active members – and it totals over $350 in value! So even if you’re not in RVA this weekend, you can still enjoy some of the crafty talent that brews here in the River City. Here’s a snapshot of all of the prizes with description and links below:

Spring Bada Bing Prizes2

  • An eco-friendly flower pillow with your choice of flower color from Nicole Lee Design
  • A custom-made Birdie Mini-Bowl from Tasha McKelvey
  • One Oilcloth Party Banner and one Chalk Cloth Party Banner from Modern June
  • A pair of clover earrings from KShonk Designs (whose house we’ve crashed!)
  • A custom colored headband for adult or child with any wisdom card  from Silver Tree Art
  • Any hand-painted scarf (up to $62) by Crystal J. Silk, like this “bacon” silk scarf (yum!)
  • Any art print (hand-drawn and screen printed!) from Itty Bitty Press
  • A dangerous animal notebook set from Monkey Dog Studio
  • A baby yak in a custom fur color from Phil Barbato
  • Any ring of your choice from Twist Style

Hope to see some of you locals there on Sunday!

  • PRIZE: Over $350 worth of prizes (see above) from Richmond Craft Mafia members.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “SPRING ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …what part of Spring have you been enjoying most so far? The warmer weather? The flowers and greenery? A Spring Break trip? The pollen? Wait, scratch that last one. Unless, of course, you’re into that sort of thing.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, April 11th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • DISCOUNT: Get 15% off any purchase in the above mentioned vendors with code YHL15 (good through April 30) <– Please contact specific vendors if there are discount code issues since we can’t fix that, thanks!
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of the Richmond Craft Mafia members.

    SPRING ME . . . I am just enjoying the actual spring we are having here in Park City, UTah. Living in the mountains doesn’t generally give us the opportunity to get spring. I have been getting out for walks in the park, hikes, runs, and mt bike rides. Spring is the best! (this year)

    Well, in Mississippi spring is fleeting. Our flowers bloomed a few weeks ago, now I’m just enjoying the delightfully warm (80 degrees) weather before it becomes unbearably hot

    Spring Me!!! I have been loving the boat rides and the massice amount of yard work we have been able to get done. We have approximately less than an acre of land. Have lived there about 2 years, and have cut down 43 trees. Don’t worry, we still have about 30 trees on the lot. =) We are hoping for grass very soon too (currently our entire yard is dirt and rocks).

    SPRING ME!!! I’ve been enjoying the weather. Here in Tucson it’s pretty much perfect right now (sunny and 80s every day). Of course, spring means that summer is right around the corner (shudder), but I’m ignoring that for now.

    Thanks for the giveaway – that stuff is awesome!!!

    SPRING ME! I have been so happy to greet the warm weather, espcially since we were finally able to rake all the fall leaves from the front yard of our house (purchased in January, when raking was just a lost/frozen cause). So excited for flip-flop weather!

    SPRING ME! I love the blooming flowers! We just went to Easter on Parade around Monument Ave. You would love it. It is 100% pet and kid friendly and you dress up your dog (and yourself if you choose) in an Easter bonnet (or in Burger’s case a top hat)!

    SPRING ME! Absolutely the weather! Mostly because an active 15 month old gets so bored in the house and there are only so many trips to Target that can keep him entertained. Nice weather and going to the park is MUCH better :)

    SPRING ME! Although I’m NOT loving how hot it is down in Austin (80s as far as the forecast can see), I’m totally digging that the water in my favorite swimming hole is already warm enough for open water swimming!
