Yay! Let’s celebrate!!! Kirschbits is having 1 year old of starting success in Etsy and in the blogging world! And as you might have already seen in the banner to the left, I opened a new shop in Dawanda.com and already had my first sell! Major things going on in Kirschbits crafting world!
Those who are subscribed to my monthly newsletter and received the first issue a week ago, might know that I was planning a B I G Giveaway to celebrate this anniversary month…. and here it is!
I am hosting this great giveaway, of 3 beautiful Kirschbits handmade bags from today Monday April 11th, until Sunday May 1st!
1. What are the 3 fabulous Gifts?

The first 2 gifts are 2 cute and roomy clutches made with repurposed or recycled vintage cotton fabrics. Fully lined with a resistant and sturdy pink cotton mix. They are fully padded and have a slip pocket inside. They are roomy enough to carry a big wallet (like mine on the photos), your keys, cell phone, etc. Each clutch have an approx. value of US $30! You can use as well as wristlets, attaching the strap with the swivel hook (which you can also use as a key-fob matching your cute hand purse). These clutches have not been listed in any of my online shops. Only 2 of each were made, so they are brand new and unique!
And the big gift is a Haddeby pleated shoulder bag, in a beautiful cotton with white and green grass print, combined with a burgundy stripe in the top and apple green in the bottom. All prints are the same soft cotton fabric. It is fully lined with black weight cotton and fully interfaced and padded. It has one slip pocket divided in 3, and one roomy zippered pocket. It has an approx. value of US $60! It has not been listed in any of my online shops. The fabric used for this bag has an unique ethnic print pattern that won’t come back in any other bag in my shop! Only one bag like this was made, so this is a piece one of a kind!
