The ever-awesome Liz, my weekly eco-friendly guest blogger here, has really outdone her awesomeness this year. She's rounded up an amazing group of artists and crafters from her earth-friendly marketplace, Cosa Verde, and together they've donated $1600 worth of amazing handmade goods! And as much as we'd like to keep them all for ourselves, we're giving everything away to you lucky readers!
Liz will be splitting up the goodness into 4 packages worth about $400 each! That means 4 of you have a chance to win a share of all of this! (click pics for larger view)
