A sampling of some of the goodies up for grabs in this year's rafflecopter drawing - Purl Merino Script Yarn from Purl Soho, Linzer Cookies by Vienna Cookie Co, PomPom Hat by PurlBKnit and Moisturizer by Naturally Susan's among several others!

The 7th Annual Handmade Cavalcade begins at 10:00 am on Dec. 13th and 14th at Chelsea Market in downtown Manhattan and the Etsy NY Street Team is sharing ways to win (in addition to shopping) goodies from our vendors and sponsors:

First...we are bringing back our famous goody bags. The Goody bags filled to the brim with clothing, accessories, paper goods, body products and other amazing surprises from our 60+ local vendors and event sponsors too will be given out to the first 100 shoppers each day. If you're not one of the those winners, you can win...

A second way…The raffle!

Yes, bundles of lovely, high-quality handmade items will also be raffled off at the event.

And the tickets are free! With each purchase you make that day, you will receive a free ticket to enter to win one of our amazing raffle packages!

But there's more!

Third way...For those of you who are fans of the Etsy NY Team and our vendors, but aren't local, or can't make the Cavalcade because of Holiday plans, do not worry! Our online raffle has launched on Rafflecopter and one lucky online winner will receive one of our amazing raffle prizes, full of handmade items donated by Cavalcade vendors and sponsors, including (as the photo above details): Linzer Cookies from Vienna Cookie Company, Yarn from Purl Soho, a handmade pom pom hat from PurlBknit and moisturizer from Naturally Susan's LLC! Now that's handmade heaven!

The more the merrier! We know you want to keep the odds to your winning high, but we encourage you to share on your social networks and follow, too! Use the hashtags (#HandmadeCavalcade #etsynyteam #Handmadeholiday) when sharing.

This is an amazing amount of good stuff! And with such blessings, we must not forget those who are struggling. For those of you attending the Cavalcade to shop, we are asking any and all to consider bringing along and donating any gently used coats for the New York Cares 26th Annual Coat Drive.

So come give and receive, as well as support real people - who make stuff!

Admission to this event is free.
