You’ve decorated your baby’s nursery with eco-friendly bedding and decor, and filled it with green toys, cloth diapers, BPA-free bottles and handmade, wooden teethers. Everything touching your little one’s world is sustainably designed… but have you chosen an eco-savvy diaper bag for yourself, to tote all of your babe’s gear to and fro?

We’ve got an amazing bag to give away to one lucky mama: the extra large, roomy, vegan, organic Hakima Handbag (worth $104) by Sparrow Handbags! Fully lined with black hemp/cotton fabric, and made with 100% SKAL certified organic cotton twill, the beauty of this bag is that it’s not only “green,” it’s also versatile, sleek and stylish. You’ll look like the eco fashion maven you are while carrying around all of your baby’s gear, and you can continue to sport this bag long after your tot is out of the diaper stage.

If you want to be entered to win this gorgeous bag in Stone (light gray), please do the following:

1) Sign up for our newsletter.

I just signed up for the newsletter. I’d like this bag because it would be a great combo diaper bag/purse for when I was just running out for a short time and didn’t need to carry both.

I’m signed up for the newsletter. What a great bag, no way does it look like a diaper bag..it looks like a designer purse! I love that long after baby no longer needs it, I’ll be able to tote all my mommy things inside in style.

Sometimes it’s hard to bridge sustainability and good design techniques. Often times you find amazing clothing, bags, hats, etc that has to be one or the other…Why can’t they be both? The answer is there is no answer, they should be! As a co-founder of a permaculture sustainable farm movement in austin, but also someone who loves good design, simple elegant lines and fashion it’s often hard for me to bridge those worlds. As soon as you say you’re sustainable people expect you to be tromping around in burlap sacks smelling of patchouli even after you’ve passed by. So for the same question I ask about clothes and the like, I ask about people…Why can’t you be sustainable as well as having great fashion sense. And the answer is…You can! Especially with this gorgeous bag.

Hey! Just signed up for the newslettter as well.

I would love this bag for my baby due late April. (We are crossing our fingers and hoping for an Earth Day baby) My husband and I would love this eco-friendly bag cause we are planning on teaching our daughter from the get-go on earth friendly living and that being green isn’t about compromising your style, and style doesn’t have to compromise your ethics.

So besides using cloth and g-diapers, making our own baby food, using second-hand items….there are other ways to raise your child in an sustainable environment. This bag would be great to incorporate those ideals, and as a director of a community service, I can also show others in my town that you can be a stylish and green mama!

I love this site so much and just discovered it a couple of weeks ago. Everything you guys post up is always so amazingly eco-conscious and its always a pleasure procrastinating from doing my work to check out what you guys are sharing with us.

These manufacturers have such adorable and stylish designs that are handmade in Canada, made of sustainable and environmentally friendly material…what more could you ask for? It’s so great that you guys are giving one away and I’m just grateful for taking part of this generous opportunity you are offering.

Love you guys!!!

I would love this bag. So stylish and compact. I currently have an eco-friendly diaper bag, but it’s boxy and bulky and not very cute at all. Throw a few cloth diapers in there and I’d be ready to go!

I haven’t bought myself a purse in a few years and I am actually using one I borrowed from my sister. I am looking forward to finally retiring the diaper bag and am on the hunt for a purse.

I would love this stylish/eco-friendly bag. With 2 kids under the age of 2 1/2 – I am in a constant search for the perfect bag… one that looks good, is earth friendly and also of course functional. I have even considered designing my own.

I am a big fan of simplicity in form and comfort. I love that this bag doesn’t scream diaper bag. Love this site by the way. I have a link to it on my kid’s blog. (www.growjack.blogspot.com).

I signed up for the newsletter, and I’d like to win the bag because, well, it’s just so sleek and attractive. Who’d ever guess it was a diaper bag? Being eco-friendly is a nice touch as well, but really it’s the stylish good looks that got me.

You are correct, I did get the eco-friendly items for the babies room and clothes. But, I failed to think about the diaper bag being eco-friendly. In the bag is where the bottles, diapers, toys, etc go. I would like to have this stylish hemp cloth lined bag for my babies item.
