JoTotes Giveaway

| Filed Under: Giveaways

YES, you read that right!!  Today, I’ve got a super sweet giveaway for you…one of you very lucky ducky readers will be winning your very own JoTotes Camera Bag!  Ah gah, how awesome is that!!
For those of you not in the know, JoTotes are like the best camera bag ever!  This is mine…

Isn’t she pretty?  I have the Rose bag in Bronze.  She is a real winner I tell ya.  Oh so soft and very roomy too.  I love all the little details about this bag, the pintucks and flower on the front.  The buckles on the sides, even the zipper glides like butter.  Okay, so check out all the goodness she can fit inside…
OMGosh right!?!  That big empty space in the middle is for my camera base…it fits perfectly!  
The bag comes with lots of removable pads which can customize your bag for carrying just about anything.  The bottom and all four sides of the bag are also padded for extra protection.  And there are lots of pockets for your extras.  The handles are big and super comfy on your shoulder and guess what?  It even comes with a removable cross-body strap too…sweet, I love options .
Okay, so what exactly can a JoTotes fit inside it?   Well, let me show you what I have in mine right now…
1.  My wallet of course, can’t leave home without it.
2.  Business cards!  A must to have on hand at all times!!
3.  My zoom lens…great for snapping pics of the kids without them seeing me 🙂
4.  Ummm, a breast pump?  Yeah, for those longer outings I can sometimes squeeze in there minus the babe.
5. My phone.
6.  Freeze dried apples for Ellie.
7.  Lollies for the other two rugrats.
Aaaand, there is room for so much more.  I also tend to carry my camera battery charger, keys, a few toys for Ellie and sometimes even our handheld video camera.
Yup, absolute love!  Now, the winner of the JoTotes giveaway gets to choose a Rose bag in their choice of color.  In case you need help in that department let me show you which color I almost got…
*Swoon*  Isn’t that teal gorgeous!?  Man, oh man how I love me some teal!
Here are a few more of their newest colors in stock…

Ahhh, your camera never had it sooo good.  And, hey even if you don’t have a camera just think how great a purse or diaper bag this would make…stylish I say.
Okay, so here’s how you can enter (up to three times!):
1.  Go to JoTotes and tell me which color Rose bag you would get if you won!
2.  Be or Become a follower of Smashed Peas and Carrots for one entry
3.  Follow Smashed Peas and Carrots on Facebook (just click here to do so) for one entry.
Giveaway ends Monday, April 25 at midnight
winner will be announced the next day!!
Good Luck!

XOXO,

      Oh wow! I just got my camera – and my hubby was so nice and bought the nikon ugly lunch box looking bag to go with it. I NEED this bag!! 🙂 I’m pretty obsessed with the bronze. It would go w/ EVERYTHING! 🙂

      You pretty much can’t keep me away from anything that’s purple so there’s really no contest: Sugarplum!!! I love reading your blog!

      p.s. your peanut butter cup cookies are one of my favorites!

    89. Brooke says

      Teal, baby! Actually any of the colors are gorgeous and would be just fine! 🙂 Thanks for the chance to win! 🙂

    109. apricotbrandy333 says

      I would LOVE the Bronze like yours! I would be able to pack almost the same stuff as you! I especially like the idea of the breastpump. The bag I am currently using is oh so teeny-tiny! Not so good for pump toting! I will be crossing my fingers!

    110. Alicia says

      Love the Rose bag in Pewter!
      To be able to carry my purse and to keep my camera safe at the same time?! Doesn’t get any better than that! Less bags I have to carry around the better!

    125. Sarah says

      I would either get teal or marigold, its a tough call. I have been looking at her bags forever and just haven’t forked out the cash for one so winning one would be totally awesome!

    134. Hayley M says

      Wow that teal is beautiful, my favourite colour! But the brown would go with so much more… hmm i think i’d have to go with the teal 🙂 it’s gorgeous!

    142. Ramsey says

      I have the ugly Cannon lunchbox bag, too and would DIE to have the teal bag with the black and white polka dot lining. With baby #4 (and the first boy!!!) on his way, it would do double duty as the most stylish diaper bag…EVER! Thanks for hosting this give away. It’s awesome.

    143. Nicole says

      Oh I LOVE * LOVE * LOVE these totes!!! If I am the lucky winner, I would pick the rose teal. I had a hard time deciding though, the moss and moonbeam are great too. Oh, I Hope I Win!!!

      Designs4@msn.com

    145. catie says

      AHHH! i just got myself a new nikon and i NEEEEEEEED a bag for it to go into! i’d pick the yellow, so bright and cherry! or the bronze, which would go with everything!

    151. serena says

      ooh wowzers!! i would get the moss… or the pink coral… i seriously love all of them!!
      puravida(at)frontiernet(dot)net

    168. Attilio says

      i like the bronze or the pewter or the moonbeam or the sugarplum or the teal…oooo cant make up my mind, they are all so nice….thanks mags and jo

      frontporchbeauty(at)live(dot)com

    170. deborah says

      Oh My Goodness! I Never knew such beautiful bags ever existed. I love the Bronze color, but also the Sugarplum. I would pick one of the two. <3

    171. Heidi V says

      I love the bronze but also really love the pewter. Really the bag is perfect but choosing the color would be tough because they are all so great! hlvognetz at yahoo dot com

    175. Heidi K. says

      I <3 the bronze and the moss!! I am going to have to get craftin' so I can get some moolah to buy this bag if I don't win the give away! It would fit everything perfectly.

    178. ginger freckle says

      OMG! I’d so love one of these bags! Raspberry would be my first choice but if it’s still not available, I’d go for bronze. Fantastic giveaway! Thanks!

    202. Kelly says

      It is so hard to pick a color! I love the Raspberry.. and the Teal… and Marigold.. and Pewter…
      I think that I would have to pick Marigold!

    246. bb says

      I would get the sugar plum bag and give it to my daughter who usually doesn’t use one…..and because of that has already had to replace a Nikon zoom lens. I never knew such cute bags existed!

    256. Becca says

      And just as an fyi…I cleaned up my pages I’m following on Facebook and you were one of the few I kept!

      beccamhill at gmail dot com

    258. Beth says

      Love this bag! I really like the teal, but that chartreuse color might make me take it home. Thanks for the fun give-away!

    263. Tiggeriffic says

      This is a super bag.. I’m going to Sweden in May this would just be perfect for my big camera to fit into.
      Hope I win~! Have a Tiggeriffic Day..ta ta for now from Iowa:)

    270. Candace says

      Ok, really? This is such an awesome giveaway!

      I had a really hard time picking because they’re all beautiful, but I think if I won I would have to pick the pewter.

    278. Emily says

      You weren’t kidding, this is an amazing giveaway! I love the turquoise and the purple. I also have the same pump. hahaha.

    281. Leslie says

      ohh jo totes how I long for you in marigold to fit all my camera goodies and life necessities. won’t you be mine?

    295. Melissa Hoffman says

      this would be incredible to have! I LOVE all of the colors. I think I would like the bronze the most. My Nikon would look even more pretty in that beautiful bag :). PICK ME!!!

    301. Lynette says

      This is wonderful! I can’t pick just one! SugarPlum! No, Rasberry! No, Teal! Aaaahhhhh – maybe just plain old boring black! Thanks for the give-away!

    307. Sarah says

      I would love to have the Pewter one. My heavy duty bag just fell apart and there isn’t money in our budget right now for me to buy a new one. Plus, this is much cuter than my husband’s camera bags.

    313. Carmom says

      I love that bag! It would be a hard choice between the Teal and the Moss. What a great bag. It would look so nice on my shoulder! 🙂

    322. Loey says

      And I follow you on facebook… I swear I’m not a stalker…well isn’t that what facebook is all about releasing our inner stalker??

    340. Ashley says

      I’ve never heard of Jo Totes until now – they are adorable! I normally am a neutral kinda girl so my default would be the black or pewter but with Spring in our midst I think I would have to step outside my comfort zone and go with a really fun color like Moss! 🙂

    358. Kat says

      I’m a follower and I’ve got to tell you I can’t decide between the teal and the pewter. I’m leaning pewter though. Maybe teal… Oh they are lovely bags.

    363. Sarah Carter says

      I LOVE the bronze bag!!! It would be perfect to fit everything my toddler needs and everything I need! I may need to upgrade my camera to do the bag justice… 🙂

    375. Tania says

      I love so many colors, marigold, moonbeam, sugarplum, raspberry, teal. I’m going to have to write the colors on a piece of paper and pull them out of a hat to choose!

    387. Barbara says

      That is a gorgeous camera bag!! I’m a new reader to your blog but I love it. If I won a bag, I think I’d have difficulty choosing between moss and marigold!

    389. maria says

      Just liked you and jototes on facebook! But I love love love all the colors how can one choose?? Any color would make a great addition to my wardrobe you will just have to choose for me if I win! 🙂 thanks Maggie! And Good Luck everybody!!

    390. Sam says

      Wow! I have had my eye on these bags for over a year now! What an incredible giveaway! I would get the marigold : )

      -Sam (sschasteen12@cox.net)

    393. Candy S says

      I’ve been eyeing the fuschia bag…waiting for it to come back in stock. I’d definitely settle for the teal bag though.

    418. june at noon says

      Oh, wow. Bags are my weakness. I would have a really hard time deciding between the Marigold, Moonbeam, and Pewter. I think today I’m leaning toward Marigold, as I could use a dose of color on a rainy day!

    429. squishysandee says

      Ooo… I am loving the Moonbeam or Moss bag. So pretty and a wonderful idea for carrying your camera. Can’t wait to make my husband tote it around 😉
      -Trish

    434. justjenn says

      Oh wow! Those are some gorgeous bags. It’s funny just the other day I was thinking, “Man, what a pain to carry my camera bag and my purse!” I’m entering twice — followed you on facebook and I have fallen in love with the teal colored Rose Bag. What a great giveaway.

    435. Michelle says

      My top pick is that gorgeous raspberry. I must not be alone with my choice as it is sadly sold out. Pewter is also pretty, so that would be the one I would pick if raspberry is still unavailable.

    436. Amy says

      I almost peed my pants when I saw the giveaway…your facebook post was certainly right…I couldn’t have kept it a serect either! Good job! hahaha I am in love with the teal one!!!

    443. tiggz0r says

      We are avid photographers! These bags are so cute!
      I would love the Rose – Sugarplum, so pretty!

      Oh I love these bags! I have been seeing them all over blogland and really think I need one! I would choose the teal!

    459. Jason and Lesley says

    469. Cindy says

      I would love to win the teal purse and yes I am a blog follower 🙂 thanks for the opportunity to win this gorgeous bag 🙂

    478. Marie says

      I love the teal but would choose the sugarplum or bronze. SO hard to choose but I love these bags! I’ve been eyeing one forever!!

    489. Swimmom says

      What a great bag – I love them all! I think I’d have to choose the teal if I won – oh and I’d need a new camera too!

    503. Dara says

      I would go with Sugarplum all the way! Awesome bag and I NEED it with a 4.5 a 2.5 year old and a baby on the way…lots of NEED room AND keeping the camera safe….DREAMING I win!

    504. Dara says

      And I just clicked, so I follow you know and winning this would go awesome with the lens bag you made me in purple!

    509. agray423 says

      I am in love with these bags! My husband and I just got a new camera and these bags would be perfect for the camera and all of your lenses! I am really liking the Bronze and Moss!

    528. Alison says

      I don’t like smashed peas and carrots….I LOVE it. I would love the Raspberry but it is out of stock so my second choice would be the Bronze. Does it matter that I am in Australia? Hope not. 🙂

    538. Anonymous says

      What a nice give away !!! I like the Rose tote in bronze !!! I am a follower of your blog but I am not on facebook !

    544. Eli says

      Ohh, I’ve had my eye on one of these bags for ages. I love Teal but also Moonbeam. Difficult to choose from all this loveliness.

    547. Amy B. says

      I just *heart* the teal rosette bag! A girl can never have enough teal! I currently own a Shootsac and severa of the covers but I need an upgrade–this will be perfect!!

    559. crafterhours says

      I’ve wanted that exact purse in Marigold for awhile now! It’s on my mother’s day gift wish list. How awesome would it be if I won, so I could cross it off and get something else? 🙂

    583. Damkid17 says

      And now Im a follower of your blog too…Hope its OK Im from Canada…but I have a wonderful brother and sister in law in the US who can accept the purse…for now!

    586. I answer to Mom says

      I went and checked out the colors…they are so pretty – I think I am going to have to start saving pennies!

      I really liked the moss…but would probably go with pewter

    589. Knit and Purl Mama says

      Love the Rose – Pewter one, because it will match any outfit. This bag is PERFECT. I hope I win! With 3 rugrats like you & a photography business when not on maternity leave… that bag would be perfect!!

    596. uksa@telkomsa.net says

      Definitely the Moss colour. What an inspirational bag. Can i enter for my friend in the States…. Love your blog it inspires me in South Africa. Keep going!!

    601. Summer says

      Love the blog and sewing tutorials! I’m following and liking! The bag looks amazing, I’d pick the Bronze for sure.

    613. pixy_stix says

      I’d die if I won. I’ve been throwing my camera into diaper bags, purses, etc. and stuffing lenses in my pants forever. (Not the best thing for lenses, being stuff down my pants.)

      If I won, I’d definitely want a teal bag.

    617. Maman A Droit says

      I think bronze is the way to go, although black seems most versatile, and the raspberry is certainly tempting 🙂

      Mamanadroit (at) gmail (dot) com

    622. Kim says

      The color choices are beautiful! My favorites are raspberry and bronze…thanks for the chance to win!

    623. Katie says

      Ok, I like the black… and the bronze…. and the pewter…. and the raspberry……..mmmmmm I like the teal, too!!!! How could a girl chose?

    625. ckscribbles says

      Pewter, sugar plum, or teal would have to be one of colors i would choose. Teal is always my favorite but pewter goes with everything and how could you not want the sugar plum!

    630. owlette says

      I doubt I’ll win but it never hurts to try I love the sugarplum but if I had to buy one I’d pick pewter because I love gray and it would go with everything I have. I’m a follower.

    632. Paula Roegge says

      Oh please oh please oh please! I have a camera. I have art supplies. I have a 6-year old who sticks everything in my purse. (but I love him bunches!) And that bronze would go with everything!

    638. Juliane says

      I really enjoy reading your blog (though I haven’t figured out how to truly “follow” it, I just have it saved in my favorites and check back daily LOL)!

      I love the bag in basic black!!

    661. Anonymous says

      and for my third chance, black, it looks so classy but I am fond of the green too… Thanks for the post on the bag-I need one…just bought a slr

    683. Laura @ ON{thelaundry}LINE says

      I laughed so hard I got tears in my eyes when I spotted that pump in that first pictures. YES! I LOVE IT! My camera bag definitely needs room for a breast pump in it, hahaha. Well, it would if my baby would take a bottle. I haven’t given up hope yet! (and I mean, we’re five months in, so I’m nothing if not eternally optimistic.)
      I would get the teal rose tote! I love it so much, I’m all covety and it’s shameful.

    704. Erin says

      Thanks for turning me on to these awesome bags. I had a had hard time making up my mind, I think that I would be happy to have one in every hue. If I am forced to choose it would have to be marigold, or moss. I love your blog, you inspire!

      Erinlebaron@gmail.com

    708. Bekah says

      Oh my heckity heck! I love these bags! My eye was first drawn to the teal, but I think I would get the bronze. I really don’t think you can go wrong! Thank you, thank you for this!!!

    716. Erin says

      Oooo! I’ve been stalking, I mean admiring, this bag for a while. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. I would be happy with any color but I’m really digging the pewter right this minute. Love your blog.

    765. locosewer says

      I would love either the pewter or bronze. Confession time….. mine would probably never see a camera, too much other stuff to put in it!!!!!

    767. iiSwanSongii says

      I am a frequent visitor to your blog! I’ve liked and followed ya! I think these bags are pretty great and of the rose line i’d choose i think the bronze as well.

    811. Anonymous says

      I LOVE this bag. I was thinking teal was my fave but the bronze is just so versatile and would go with everything. Oh, wait, the green is wonderful too…..:) I don’t think you could go wrong with any of them. Thanks for the giveaway!!
