A sneak peak at the goody bags

And shop early with The {NewNew} tomorrow

Need DIY ideas for home improvement and decor? Visit our sponsor:

We're so excited—the goody bags for this year's Holiday Handmade Cavalcade are going to be the best yet! Our wonderful sponsors are filling our bags with all sorts of fun stuff. Check it out:

A full-size issue of ReadyMade magazine
Reusable tote bags from Lion Brand Yarn and Knitty City
Fat quarters of original fabric from City Quilter
Beading Kits from the Brooklyn Bead Box
Candy from Papabubble
Surprise gifts from Etsy and Brooklyn Indie Market
Plus coupons and more from Yelp, Sustainable NYC, Funky Finds, Brooklyn Lyceum, and Fiber Notion.

And the bag that contains all of these free gifts is a goody in itself, a sturdy canvas tote hand-printed with a limited edition {NewNew} graphic. Perfect for groceries, as a second purse, and to carry your purchases home from the Handmade Cavalcade! Wear it around town and show everyone that you support local handmade artists.

So be sure to show up early to get your hands on a free goody bag! We'll give them to the first 200 shoppers to arrive before 2pm. After 2pm, any leftover bags will be available for purchase for only $5.

And while you're shopping, don't forget to enter our free raffle for an extra-special goody bags. Five of the artists from the Holiday Handmade Cavalcade have hand-embellished a {NewNew} tote bag, and we've filled them with full-size items donated by our vendors and other members of the {NewNew}. Raffle tickets are free with a purchase from any vendor at the Holiday Handmade Cavalcade, so be sure to ask for then as you do your shopping.

See you on December 5th!
