2nd PLACE PRIZE – $100 Gift Certificate to A Time For Everything Etsy Shop

I am passionate about people living within their means and getting out of debt, but I don’t believe a cash system of budgeting has to mean tattered paper envelopes reinforced with packing tape! I offer a variety of lovely cash envelope system wallets with the hope that each of my customers can find a product that fits her budget, appeals to her personal taste, and functionally suits her needs. My wallets and accessories are handmade by me using designer laminated cotton which is lightweight yet very durable, CPSIA compliant, and free of BPA, PVC, and phthalates. Live within your means with style!

 

3rd PLACE PRIZE – Clever Container: Sophisticated File Box

Is it a file box? Is it a handbag? It’s both! Sophisticated, practical and handy! This beautiful PVC tote comes with 4 coordinated standard letter-sized hanging file folders to fit the 26” file rods which are embedded in the core. The three interior pockets hold keys, phone, and accessories.  (11½ x 14 x 6½)

    Just curious. When you say we have to follow you does that mean every board you have? I follow the majority of your boards for all of you but not 100% of them. Does that count?
