Win a fabulous tote from Two Peas in a Pod

Update: the winner is Hope Teich!

I love these large totes because they are so versatile. This one measures 13″ tall, 15″ wide at top and 9″ wide at the base. It has 3 interior pockets and features a magnetic snap closure. 14″ strap drop. This is a great sturdy bag that has interfacing that makes the bag sturdy and durable yet soft. It is machine washable.

I love this bag too since you’ll be able to get so much use out of it, and the colors will take you through the summer into fall. Two Peas in a Pod makes totes, purses and baby items, and Trish has generously offered this bag to a very lucky Try Handmade reader.

To enter this contest ($56 value), all you have to do is leave a comment on this post. { rules } Contest ends midnight pacific time Friday May 22. Good luck!
