For further information about what this is and why I’m doing it, you can read more about 10,000 Comment Thank You Giveaway Week here.
I didn’t realize it when I contacted her about the giveaway, but Kate and I are literally next door neighbors! I’m pretty sure I could have walked over to her place to pick this up instead of having her ship it to me. Kate’s shop is called K8made Designs and is stocked full of colorful fabric clutches that would be great for jazzing up my often all-black outfits. And would you look at that packaging? My favorite part about ordering from Etsy is the way my items are always creatively packaged.

I chose to give away this black and white damask small clutch, the Jennifer, because I think damask is classy and timeless, and I think this clutch could easily work for both a casual trip to the grocery store and a girls night out.
According to Kate’s shop description:
This one-of-a-kind K8made clutch holds all the essentials for a night on the town. The classic yet contemporary neutral print will compliment almost any outfit, from dressy to casual.
*Outside: Cotton, decorator weight fabric, black and white damask print
*Inside: Cotton, bright pink solid
*Double lined with interfacing for added stability
*Silver kiss-lock frame
5.5”H x 8.5”L x 3”W

Isn’t that pop of pink on the inside fabulous? I went back and forth between giving away the geometric Ellen and the damask Jennifer, but it was the bright pink that won me over.

That is soooo pretty! I love it. Good luck ladies!
November 11th, 2009 on 8:25 am
Oh Wow! that is cute. I would LOVE to win this one.
November 11th, 2009 on 8:37 am
I agree Jenna, that is classy!! I love damask!
November 11th, 2009 on 9:07 am
Oh that is just fabulous! Both clutches were great, but that pop of pink really does make the Jennifer extra special.
November 11th, 2009 on 9:08 am
I agree with Kelli Nicole. This is my favorite so far! A girl can never have too many purses/clutches!
November 11th, 2009 on 9:57 am
Those are gorgeous! If I don’t win this, I’m putting it in my wishpot, so maybe someone will buy it for me for Christmas. : )
November 11th, 2009 on 10:02 am
How funny you mention about Etsy sellers packaging…I feel the same way!! I love opening the shipping box to discover the item packaging, then the item itself. It’s like 2 gifts in one
Anyway, love this clutch!!!
November 11th, 2009 on 10:04 am
I love this more than the cupcake onesie (and I didn’t think that was possible!). It is my last one to enter. Hope I win
November 11th, 2009 on 10:24 am
I love Damask print! I think it is so classy and timeless. That pink though does give it a bit of pazzaz! So cute!
November 11th, 2009 on 10:25 am
Love that bag! I hope I’ve commented 10 times… eeek!
November 11th, 2009 on 10:26 am
Way cute. I agree that the pink is the perfect addition.
November 11th, 2009 on 10:27 am
Um, have you seen my (non-updated) blog lately? I. Must. Have. This.
November 11th, 2009 on 10:31 am
OH this is so cute!!!
November 11th, 2009 on 10:32 am
That is hilarious that she is your neighbor! It’s so cute. I’m intimidated by etsy packaging, I haven’t thought of anything cute yet….
November 11th, 2009 on 10:46 am
Oooh, I really like this one!! I also like her big floral colorful prints. I think clutches are the best way to jazz up old clothing when you can’t afford to buy a new outfit. I’m crossing my fingers!
November 11th, 2009 on 10:49 am
That clutch is gorgeous! I love damask
I’m switching to the email address I used to use, hope it makes it easier for you!
November 11th, 2009 on 11:03 am
That is gorgeous. It would go so great with anything formal, or even a dressy suit for corporate type events!
November 11th, 2009 on 11:08 am
Oh I love this!
November 11th, 2009 on 11:18 am
I too love with etsy that the packaging feels like an extra present.
That purse is so pretty.
November 11th, 2009 on 11:19 am
Not sure if I’ve hit the 10 comment mark or not but I think I probably have over the last year! This clutch is really adorable and if I don’t win I might have to just treat myself!
November 11th, 2009 on 11:36 am

November 11th, 2009 on 12:02 pm

November 11th, 2009 on 12:06 pm
Cute cute cute! This would look great with my jeans and black (my weekends standards)
November 11th, 2009 on 12:09 pm
OH….I agree this is my favorite thus far. And the marketing geek in me has to love Kate’s creative store name & logo…almost as much as I love the clutch!
November 11th, 2009 on 12:25 pm
GAAAAAAAH!! I cannot stand how freaking adorable this purse is. This would be an awesome bridesmaid gift, too.
November 11th, 2009 on 12:41 pm

November 11th, 2009 on 1:23 pm

November 11th, 2009 on 1:38 pm
I want it!
November 11th, 2009 on 1:44 pm

November 11th, 2009 on 1:54 pm

Ooh, now that is adorable! I love me some damask. I’m sure I must have commented ten times (although I’ve commented as Ruby Slippers, Kat F on WordPress, and my current blog, but anyway). I don’t know if you want to post overseas, but I might as well try.
November 11th, 2009 on 4:31 pm
Love that clutch…I’ve been in need of one to go with my black outfits too!
November 11th, 2009 on 4:58 pm
This scream going out with a LBD… or just about anything else really. I love the contrast between the insde and the outside.
I didn’t think you could find so much cuteness in a clutch.
This is to a woman what the onesie was to a baby.
November 11th, 2009 on 6:00 pm
that’s pretty.
and it matched my wedding.
i lurvvvvee it.
November 11th, 2009 on 8:04 pm
What a giveaway week! You’ve found some fabulous etsy ladies. I especially like K8made’s envelope clutches, but this damask clutch is adorable.
November 11th, 2009 on 8:29 pm
Love this – totally gorgeous! I know I have left way in excess of 10 comments so fingers crossed for me!
November 11th, 2009 on 8:53 pm
My great grandmother gives me a little coin purse/clutch almost every time I see her. I rarely- maybe never- carry them, but I love them so much!
November 11th, 2009 on 10:44 pm
That clutch is adorable…and would completely match a new shirt I bought….
November 11th, 2009 on 10:57 pm
Am not sure if I’ve made 10 comments… But this is adorable! So glamorous and demure on the outside – but that pink lining gives it some sass! I will definitely check out K8Made Designs.
November 11th, 2009 on 10:58 pm
Oh CUTE! I’m not a purse-fancier usually, but this is just darling.
November 11th, 2009 on 11:09 pm
I want that clutch…
November 11th, 2009 on 11:20 pm
AMAZING!! I want to buy that for myself (if I don’t win, of course…:)…).
November 12th, 2009 on 12:04 am
Wow, I love the color combo on this! Totally delightful
You have awesome taste, Jenna!
