Bella Luna Give Away
A couple of weeks ago we introduced you to Sarah Baldwin, Waldorf educator and owner of Bella Luna Toys. She gave an incredible interview, which from this point forward I think I’ll fondly refer to as Waldorf 101 🙂 She most graciously offered to sponsor a Give Away, too. Of course we jumped at the chance. Bella Luna Toys, right? EVERYTHING is lovely over there! So, to enter, here are the totally fun rules!
Head over to Bella Luna Toys. Do yourself a favor and look at absolutely everything. Not to worry… you’ll have a blast. Put together a wish list. Then come back to Wee Folk Art, and list your 3 favorite things. If you would like, tell us why you made your selections. It is that simple.
The contest runs from today, Wednesday, February 24, to Sunday, February 28 at 9:00 p.m. EST. At that time 2, yep, 2 winners will be drawn at random and each will receive a $25.00 gift certificate towards the purchase of items on their wish list. How awesome is that?
Want to up your chances of winning? And who wouldn’t, right? Just link to us on Facebook, Twitter, your blog or where ever you can get the word out about this super cool Bella Luna Toys Give Away, and you’ll get an extra entry for each posting. Make sure you create a new comment for each additional entry, including linking information. Then sit back and keep your fingers crossed!
And, sweetening the pot just a little bit more, Sarah is offering all readers a 10% discount off any orders placed between now and Saturday, March 6! Just type in the promotion code WEEFOLK to receive your special discount!
We want to thank Sarah for her generosity, and encourage all of our readers to join in the fun and savings. Winners will be announced after the drawing and notified by email. Winners must contact us by Sunday, March 7, or a new winner will be drawn. Good luck to all and let the wishing commence!

I love the 16 inch dolls,the small tree house and the rainbow tunnel.I work in a non-profit childcare for children 1-6 year olds and know that the children would love all of these!Love love love all the quality play materials you sell!
Paula
In a total fantasy world I would love a playstand set! We are saving our pennies for one of those. The Harvest game…my three year old would love that…and painting supplies…to keep the creativity flowing! What a fun give away thank so much!

I just linked up on facebook 🙂

This is the kind of stuff I drool over!! It’s hard to pick three. I’ve wanted a play stand for like forever, but honestly don’t know where it would fit in our house anyway. 🙁
So for right now, I think my top three are:
*The pink waldorf fairy doll – I love Waldorf dolls and this one reminds me of my Savannah Rose.
*A set of tree blocks – I have a friend who kept these in her livingroom for her little ones to play with (and my little ones when we came over) even big kids and adults love them.
and *The hardwood stacking set – for our baby Wilmer who is due in June.

Oh what fun to peruse the Bella Luna site! I have 2 sons & found so much I would like for them. The top 3 include:
1) Rainbow Tunnel: My 17 month old loves to stack blocks, beanbags, etc and to put objects into containers and the rainbow tunnel, which is simply lovely, would provide us with hours of imaginative play together.
2) 16-inch Waldorf Dress-Up Doll: Both boys (17 months & 4 years) have fun playing with their baby doll (changing the cloth diaper, swinging, pushing in the doll sized pram, etc.) But she is plastic and not very hugable. I would love to have a boy Waldorf doll for both boys. I’m sure the 4 of them would have great fun!
3) Silk Skytail: We love to play outside and have a great time with our play silk. With skytail I can see see my boys throwing it off the deck and laughing as it sails through the sky!

Beautiful toys. Like many others, hard to choose, but think I would go with:
1) Walker Wagon by Haba
2) Silk Streamers
3) Rainbow flowers felting kit
We’re having a new baby. so a walker will come in handy and I’ve always wanted, but have never gotten silk streamers and a felting kit.

I learned about Bella Luna after Sarah took it over as a business, and I’m seriously impressed. I’m drawn to the Waldorf traditions of toys and art for small children, and have been meaning to shop at Bella Luna. I probably won’t win, but I will be shopping there at some point, and repeatedly, no doubt. What I love most are:
1. the play stand and arches
2. blocky beeswax crayons
3. the painting board
There is so much more that I could list, but I’ll respect the List 3 directions.
Also, very glad to find Wee Folk Art’s web site. I’ve got it bookmarked now!
kari
So many great things! My favorites were:
Silk Dragon Costume by Sarah’s Silks
Lyra Color Giants Pencils
Wooden Rainbow tunnel
Play Stands and arch
I could go on and on. 🙂
Suzi
I’m all about art supplies and imaginative house play!
1 – Stockmar paints
2 – Stockmar modeling beeswax
3 – Dustpan & brush set
Karen Traversy
1. Wool Felt Beads from Nepal
2. Rainbow Flower Felting Kit
3. Forest Gnome Family Kit
Thanks for running this contest!

we love all the play food by haba!!
why?? we have 4 children (9, 6, 3 & 10 months) and a play kitchen that gets used daily by each of them.
and thought we have been living a waldorf lifestyle for nearly 5 years, there are still a few lovelies that we haven’t quite gotten around to adopting…
1) the tea bags are an all-time favorite of ours
2) the wooden swiss cheese
and because i can dream (and drool:)
3)the haba doll pram, natural of course…
we love it all & have shopped bella luna for years, we love her & her shop.
thank you both for ths generous giveaway…warmly, jessi

I ordered a few items for my daughter from Bella Luna this Christmas and not only did my daughter love them, but Sarah provided such great customer service I was blown away. When I purchase something I count the entire experience, not just price (although I found Bella Luna’s prices to be competitive). I had spoken to so many non-helpful customer service representatives wiith other companies and speaking with Sarah was such a breathe of fresh air. She did her best to obtain the color that I wanted for a fairy doll for my daughter and somehow got it to my home in time for Xmas. So if I could create our next wish list of items it would be as follows:
1. Wooden Baby and Child Spoons
$7.70-$8.70
2. Felted Acorns u2013 Rainbow Colors
$19.95
3.Painting with Children
by Brunhild Mu00FCller
And the list would go on and on…
Thank you for offering this contest.

1. Flower Fairy Dolls in pink or yellow
2. Forest Gnome Family Kit

Thanks.

Thought I’d take a quick look and pick out a couple of things. Half an hour later, here I am. What a great selection of natural toys and art supplies! Our son is a big fan of play silks and wooden toys and he’s also into the arts so it was really hard to choose. With that said, here is our wish list…
1. Water Color Painting Paper – we don’t have access to high quality paper like this.
2. The wooden paddle boat for bath time fun (Can’t believe it is only $5.95. Is that right?)
3. Mama K’s Clay. I had no idea that there was a natural substitute for Play Dough much less a better version with aroma therapy built in!
Bella Luna will be my first stop from now on.
viviane
wow, there are so many things, i have shopped at bella luna before and after sarah took over and i really have enjoyed talking with her over the phone and in e-mails. she cares about every costumer. i really believe this!
my vote is for: first, the dustpan and long brush, so my little 2yr old can have a job at his own level. second, the mama k’s play clay (beautiful colors and essential oil scents). third, the wooden choo-choo (my son got this for christmas, he loves it, very beautiful and well made).
if i could have a 4th it would have to be the felted acorns…love it…thank you for the opportunity.
Rebecca
We’d love to have the gnome house or doll house kits.
Rachel D
I’d love some more craft kits and supplies, such as the rainbow ball knitting kit, blue bird needle-felting kit, and beeswax block crayons (because my toddler gave our last set to the dog, who then chewed them to bits).
Scented Sweetpeas
That is so unfair to tempt us by making us look at that site, what gorgeous toys !
Well I love the Flower Fairy Doll, the wooden Bi-Plane and the Bluebird Needle felt kit as I have a thing about birds at the moment.
Please enter me into your fab competition 🙂
Tiffany
There were so many great toys and products.
My top three would be:
1. Rainbow tunnel
2. Wooden Choo Choo train
3. Klean Kanteen
Thanks for hosting this contest!
Shannon Lucas
Our wish list is:
1)Poseable Baby doll for my daughter. My daughter loves baby dolls and this one is the perfect size to take places.
2)The sea-turtle felting kit. To make my boys some turtles friends. 🙂
3)Modeling Beeswax for homeschool fun.
Elizabeth Plumley
Gryffin says to the gnomes: ” I would like two silk swords, a wooden paddle boat, and I would also like a knight’s costume and some blocks.” Okay that’s more than three, but he got what he wanted for Yule. “Thank you gnomes, signed Gryffin Michel Plumley”
Brie
I love the “waldorf 101” article. My daughter’s waldorf teacher forwarded it to all of the parents and I have forwarded to all of my friends and family to help them understand the educational decisions that my husband and I have made for our children. I of course love Bella Luna. My wish list consists of 1.) The beautiful FLower Festival Dishes 2.) The rainbow nesting bowls or rainbow tunnel 3.)Some New beeswax crayons 4.)New sarah Silks (ours have been well loved and need to retire to something else).
Rebekah

oh my just 3 things… there are sooo many wonderful things to choose from… but without further adieu;
Crafts Through the Year –
we have had our eye on this book for a while. I am completely a sucker for craft books, but really a sucker for books that help guide a family in crafts they can do together throughout the year
Build a Tree House — need I say more. All kids (uuhhhmmmm, and adults) need a tree house for gnomes, fairies, trolls and other woodland creatures to play with and decorate throughout the seasons and holidays : )
Wildcraft! An Herbal Adventure Game
I just love this game. We do not have it, but a family friend does. That is the first thing we want to play at their house on cold and rainy days!
Just love to “screen shop” in Bella Luna. What a wonderful giveaway!
