{Ginormous} Green Giveaway

You would have to be living on another planet if you haven't felt bombarded with all of the messages of late about going green, eco-living, lowering your carbon footprint, etc...the message is important but I have to say, it has felt very overwhelming at times. As a mom, there are enough things to worry about and take care of! But, I do feel that I should play a part in it all and am trying to make small and necessary changes here and there. And I've learned that it doesn't always have to feel like a sacrifice. Case in point - check out all of the fabulous items below - gone are the days of burlap, drab organic fabrics. These mom-owned businesses are doing their part by offering {stylish} green and organic products for you and your family.

You're not going to believe all the green goodies we've grabbed for you! {Alright, alright...enough with the alliteration of G's...can you tell I'm excited?} Over $400 worth of goods to one winner! Here goes...
