Win a Stash shopping tote | How About Orange

June 29, 2009

Win a Stash shopping tote

While browsing on Etsy, I came across Mari Forssell's shop full of simple, modern bags in delicious fabrics. Mari is originally from Finland, now living in Nebraska. She's been sewing since she was a tiny girl and adores Marimekko fabrics. (Me too!)

We've arranged a little giveaway: leave a comment on this post before midnight CDT on Thursday (7/2/09), and a random winner will receive this hip red-orange shopping tote. Include a link or way of contacting you. The winner will be announced on Friday in this post.

UPDATE: The giveaway is now closed. The lucky winner was comment number 269, Elizabeth K. Congrats!

I have always loved Marimekko! Just recently I thought about the Marimekko sheets I had for my twin bed. Hmm...I should look for some for my daughter. I love the bag. It is hard to find totes that don't have long handles that are too long. These look perfect!

Very "Marimekko," isn't it? Must be that wonderful Finnish influence. I adore Finland - a wonderful country with lovely people.

Unknown said...

Ooh, lovely bag. I first discovered (and fell in love with!) Marimekko when I visited Helsinki. I can't begin to tell you how happy it makes me that this line has become more accessible here.
