In May 2010 I saw an application for making a shopping bag kind towards enviroment. It was a charity thing, because all bag would be sold and money given to children and their familes who lost their jobs in Koroška region.
"I can make a shopping bag". So I thought long and hard and evenually made a bag and sent it.
In June the 22nd I found that among 194 bags the jury introduced 20 finalist and my was among them! Boy, was I happy. It is made out of cotton and it can be used on both sides. On one side there are trees and on the other there are stripes. I choose trees because Slovenia has a lot of trees, trees are very important for the Word and we should tresaure them. I choose stripes because I like them and they are fashionable this year.
On 8th on September the winners were annouced and no, I did not win, but I am happy anyway. My bag was sold almost instantly. I hope it will serve the new owner well.
Since it was a charity thing I bought my self a bag as well. Here it is:

Thank you all who voted for me and my friends for all your support. It means a lot to me.
Oooohhhh, človek najde kjut ovratnico za peso in posledično ugotovi, da je ena od meni najdražjih torb (bile so tri) v finalu One tvoja! Čestitam. Torba je krasna tako v kroju kot vzorcih in čisto po mojem okusi...oz. če bi jo videla v trgovini bi jo zagotovo kupila!
ReplyDeleteOooooo, hvala :-) Bila je zanimiva izkušnja, a življenje teče dalje, ampak še vedno pa se sprašujem, kdo je mistery girl, ki je torbo kupila.
