Janey Mac ***ENDED***

I find it so difficult to decorate my home. Am I alone in this? Doubt it. :) Janey Mac makes decorating soooo easy. Wall vinyl is all the rage these days, because of it's appearance and versatility. It adds beauty to any room and can be used on more than just walls; i.e. glass, wood, tile, etc. The wall vinyl designs at Janey Mac are amazing! I'm talking unique and different designs that I haven't seen before.

Of course I'm partial to this one:

There are even some great looks for the kiddo's room:

Doesn't this look just like wallpaper?

There are some really great expressions & quotes:

Don't have a headboard for the guest bedroom? Not a problem:

See what I mean? Amazing wall vinyl!!! You can find these awesome Janey Mac designs and many others on the main website and also on the Janey Mac Etsy shop. Due to maternity leave the Etsy shop is currently closed, but will be opening back up next week! Be sure to mark your calendars, so you can order your great vinyl then! Congratulations Lynnette and family on your newest addition!

The winner of this giveaway is going to receive a $25 gift certificate to Janey Mac. This is one great prize and I'm excited about having it featured!

Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Company and Mavrakos ***ENDED***

What would the holidays be without chocolate? Well, the winner of this giveaway is going to be in chocolate heaven, because they will be receiving a Mavrakos Rosebud 8 oz. assortment. Mavrakos Chocolate began in St. Louis, MO back in 1913, but the Mavrakos tradition ended in 1984. Fortunately this great history of chocolate making is available again from Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Company in St. Louis, MO. This chocolate company is also fabulous and had inherited the recipe book from the Mavrakos family. This year Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Company decided to relaunch the line of Mavrakos! And you don't even have to live in St. Louis to have access to either Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Company or Mavrakos, because both are available to EVERYONE online. Gotta love that about a chocolate company! Be sure and visit both websites, because there is just so much to drool over. :) For instance...

I'm a huge fan of truffles:

And I think it would be so fun to host a bingo night with these:

Beads, Bangles, and Bands ***ENDED***

Months and months ago I heard about Beads, Bangles, and Bands. Finally in August I decided it was time for me to purchase one of their great watches. After all, my birthday is in August and I'm willing to tell you that there is nothing wrong with buying oneself a gift. :) At Bead, Bangles, and Bands you won't just find presents for yourself, but also for multiple people and multiple times! For instance, if you buy a Beads, Bangles, and Bands watch for someone then the next gift giving time you can give that person another unique band so they can alternate their watch's look. It's the gift that you can keep on giving!

The size of this watch face is great and so in right now. Perfect starter to designing your watch!

Then you can pick from all the different watch bands to not only match your outfit, but your personality! I'm quite partial to this one in tones of brown:

Or how about this one? It's too pretty!

Zoeyndot ***ENDED***

The process of adoption is something that I have been able to witness at various points in my life. It's a marvelous and wonderful thing. Such a blessing! So, it's not surprising that I was truly touched by the onesies at Zoeyndot. This shop offers so many cute onesies that celebrate the miracle of adoption. Some of the available sayings on the onesies are: Adoption Rocks, Adoption=Love, and Peace. Love. Adoption.

Wouldn't this blanket make the perfect gift for anyone adopting a child from an Asian country?

Another thing that makes this shop so special is that 10% of all proceeds go to benefit a local adoption agency. How cool is that?

Zoeyndot also has the cutest leg/arm warmers:

And adorable tutus:

Zoeyndot truly has something for every child!

It's always fun to be able to go on a shopping spree and Zoeyndot is making that possible for one lucky winner. The winner will have $25 to use in the Zoeyndot shop. With that type of prize and the affordable prices, the winner could possibly get more than one item!

Sew Dang Cute ***ENDED***

When I became a mom I found myself in awe of all the baby gear out there. When I saw another mom I wasn't looking at her baby, but found myself drawn to the cute "accessories" she had. After all, I didn't know the first thing about baby related "accessories" beyond the diaper bag. I wanted to be a cute new mama and wondered where everyone else got all those great things!

Everything was just so dang cute! And you know? I could have found what I was admiring all at Sew Dang Cute. :) At Sew Dang Cute you can find decorative wipes cases. Why have a boring case to carry wipes in when you can have one that looks fabulous?

Like this one:

Or this one. Doesn't it just scream sophisticated mama?

And even one for the Ute fan in all of us. Sorry, I had to give props to my husband's alma mater!

But guess what? There's more! (I sure hope I didn't sound like a bad infomercial there.)

Isn't this hooded towel the cutest?

For the nursing moms there are even some very fashionable nursing covers. Like this one:

And this gift set...ADORABLE!

Now if you had $20 to spend...what would you spend it on at Sew Dang Cute? Well, you better start thinking, because the winner of this giveaway is going to get just that! That's right, a $20 credit to use in the Sew Dang Cute shop!
