giveaway // bethany bARTon

I'm writing today to re-introduce you to the incredible bethany bARTon; I first raved about this great lady in April (here!) and she has since released her first children's book, has another on the docket for spring 2013, and is now selling tons of goodies on Society6.

In celebration of a few different things (the upcoming gift-gifting holidays, the new Society6 line, and Bethany's general awesomeness), I'm excited to host a new giveaway for some goodies created by the genius imagination of bethany bARTon.

 Bethany even came up with an illustration for her own molecular composition (i.e. awesomeness)

First and foremost is Bethany's children's book, "This Monster Needs a Haircut," full of fresh illustrations and a fun storyline entertaining for both children AND adults.  Recommended for preschoolers to first graders, this book will make the perfect holiday gift for the little ones in your life.

But wait, that's not all!

Bethany also has a ton of rad stuff for adults, including books, iPhone skins and cases, shirts and hoodies, art prints, and tote bags, available on Society6 as well as Etsy.

After a lot of consideration about what I would want from such a giveaway, I've finally settled on an eco-friendly tote bag with an equally eco-friendly illustration from Bethany, so you can complement your environmentally-conscious shopping bag with on-target messaging.  The thing is, I couldn't narrow it down between these two designs, so the winner gets to choose which one she prefers!  :)


The totes, from Bethany's Society6 shop, are made from 100% post-industrial recycled cotton and measure 13.5" x 15.5" with 5.5" side and bottom gussets and 23" x 1.5" cotton web shoulder straps, allowing you to carry the bag either on your shoulder or as a hand-held tote.

So, to recap: winning this giveaway means you get TWO awesome prizes produced by the glorious artwork of bethany bARTon: (1) a hardcover copy of "This Monster Needs a Haircut," and (2) a tote bag featuring either Bethany's high five-powered spaceship, or her "there's just so much to be grateful for" flower.

A gift for you, and a gift for the special kiddo in your life!  Or two gifts, if you can bear to part with the coolest tote bag ever.

Good luck!
