Giveaway (CLOSED): Your Choice of Green Baby/Toddler Care Products from Mrs. Dork!

New to blog giveaways, and a little nervous? Check out able2able's Blog Giveaway FAQ.

2/20: THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED AND THE PRIZE HAS BEEN CLAIMED! DrianaKai, Random.Org selected you as the winner!

No, I'm not being mean. This giveaway is sponsored by the Super Cool Queen of Repurposed Clothing, Mrs. Dork, from from the blog Confessions of a Sewing Dork. If I ever have time to take my sewing machine to couples therapy, I am heading straight to her blog for some fun and inspirational tutorials about reworking old clothes into toys, new clothes, handbags, and myriad other things I could never imagine on my own. (My sewing machine hates me. I know it does, it's told me many times. It makes me cry.) The winner of this giveaway can choose one of three green prize packages:

1) A set of two boys arm or legwarmers. One short, one long, for ages 0 to 5. Perfect is you are potty training a toddler with poor body awareness and want to give them some naked time or be able to quickly see an accident. Also great for some extra insulation during our snow crazy winter of 2010 (either over or under winter clothing). I used a legwarmer on my daughter's arm when she had a PICC (aka a perc) for IV antibiotics at home. It kept her from poking at it and came in handy for keeping the IV tubing out of her reach.


2) A set of two girls arm or legwarmers. One short, one long, for ages 0 to 5. For all of the needs above, or just because they look cute! Both the boys and the girls legwarmers are repurposed from socks purchased new for this giveaway. (My sister said she's seen the same socks at Payless!)


3) Four Reusable No-Paper Towels, made of eco-friendly/antibacterial bamboo terry, and four Flannel/Minky wipes, for all your child's wiping needs (top to bottom). The wipes and towels are all 8 x 8 inches square, machine washable, and very reusable. I've heard of cloth diapers, but this is the first time I've heard of cloth wipes. It makes sense and is better for delicate skin then a terry washcloth. If you are already using cloth diapers, just throw them in with the dirties. If your baby/toddler is a refluxer, has sensitive skin, is prone to rashes, has a scheduled surgery (ugh, antibiotic rash), or if you want to reduce your use of disposable wipes then these can come in handy. Do like the hospitals do - clean up poop with toilet paper then use the cloth wipe. And make sure you pat the skin dry after every use.

You must post a comment for each entry (but you only have to include the link in one of your comments if it saves you time).

It is very important that you post a comment for each entry. Why? Because a random number generator will be used to select the winner. Each comment will be numbered by Blogger, and I will use those numbers for the drawing. So if you combine entries into one post all your entries will not be counted. There will be no do-overs! I will verify that the winning entry has met the requirements above, so if your comment for a FB status update is the winning comment then I will want to see that update, etc. If I cannot verify your entry, then all your entries will be removed from the list and the drawing will be repeated.

This giveaway ends at 11:59 pm (CT) on Friday, February 26th. The winner's name will be posted on able2able on Saturday, February 27th and I will also email you. The lucky winner will have until 11:59 pm (CT) Monday, March 1st to contact me.

Please don't critique the picture quality - the winter lighting in Alberta, Canada is temporarily affecting Mrs. Dork's photography.
